As far as I know they suppose to represent a actual girl dress up like a princess... any way I got one for my sister for $45 at disney.com the week before Christmas, this is the first time that precious moments took my attention for their figurines, they are actually well done.

Even if it was not their intention to put in that way I think your comparison fits quite well, Pixar is (taken apart all things related to the shameful distribution from BVHE) in reality what W. Disney meant for He's studios to be, now the thing here is we do not have that happy ending, after Disney...

Today is the first time I could check the dvds although they arrive last Saturday, and the first thing I notice is a different print quality, almost inadvertently in the disc 1 but quite noticeable in disc 2 especially the brightness in colors... well may be I am asking too much. Also thanks to MK S...

I'm so happy Disney don't have longer the rights to bring Ghibli-movies out in Germany. When Disney starts the deal with Ghibli they have issued the movies in many countries- but not in Germany. There exist not one german Disney-issued Ghibli movie. Now there is another publisher, which makes great...

It is not about race but about the society, it will be the day when the ambiance of Disneyland parks became history, you can tell that every day it is less friendly yet nobody can blame just the company, this is just a reaction produced by the effect of "our US society" especially in the c...

I think Disneyland is in part a historical educational oriented park, (not even mentioning Disney films) it depends how ones enjoy it, now slavery is a grotesque part not just from US history but from humanity in general, and still in its own way a problem in our society, its too bad that this park ...

If you are all about rides especially big ones and more into the “resort” experience I think Disneyland is not the great competitor, (This is the only Disney park I know in person) but if you are more into the Disney legacy I think this is the best place to visit, it is not totally original to its f...

Re: Miyazaki U.S. Disney Rip-Off

So what is your take on this? Do you feel that it is wrong that they essentially ripped Disney's cover art theme? Or do you feel this is a good thing because it fits in well with the rest of the films, most of which have been released in the U.S. by Disney and with slipcovers. I do not think this i...
