Grant’s death was really really sad. I cried. My brother and I watched Mythbusters all the time and Grant, Tory, and Kari were my favorites. Grant was so smart and so funny and so good-natured.
His death was an absolute tragedy. He was so young. I cried as well.
Load More Replies...I hope he never had the cause of death (brain aneurysm) at all. This makes this much more sad, especially at his young age of 49 :(
how did I make it this long and not know that he died almost 4 years ago! RIP Grant, he was amazing
I was sent to a training course in Disney world by my former ( then current) job. The seminar was in mid December. I managed to buy plane tickets for my daughter and sister. Revealed to my daughter at the airport that we were going to Disney world. Surprise! We stayed in one of the family friendly resorts. We hit up the breakfast buffet for my training every morning, had a picnic lunch, and used my work per diem for dinner. I'm incredibly grateful for this experience, as much as I dislike Disney, but there's no way I could have swung that solo.
What companies send employees there for training, asking for.... me??!!!!!

"Disney Money" AKA "could have been a down payment on a house but instead I bought food in Disneyland." EDIT: People seem to misunderstand my did. I don't care what the lady does with her money. I'm peeved that Disney seems greedy these days. My dig was at Disneyland for price gouging, not at people wanting to enjoy the park. Even adjusted for inflation, prices are 2-4X higher than when I first went as a kid in the 60s. Not just tickets - lots of other add on fees. Like parking used to be free.
Let people do what they want with their money. They're not hurting anyone.

What’s a Disney adult, you may be wondering? Well, it’s a name used to describe grown-up fans of the company. Their common hobbies include visiting theme parks, collecting merchandise, and consuming any Disney-related content.
Carrie tells Bored Panda that she loves being a part of such a community. “As much as I love going to Disney with my children, there's something extra special about an adults-only trip. I just got back from a Disney cruise and a trip to Walt Disney World with my girlfriends. It was the perfect escape!”
It's no fair that Disney just makes all the ugly characters villains. Like, why can't I be the hero for once?
Dude's got ripped abs and piercing eyes. Ugly?

One of my favorite childhood shows! And now after searching my entire emoji-pedia, I want to know why the Easter Island head is the closest emoji to a gargoyle.
Load More Replies...according to isaac carlson, hes also the one who gave dark magic to the evil queen in snow white, maleficent and whoever else used dark magic in disney
It was my favourite segment of the entire movie from the first moment I watched it, maybe 7 years old. Apparently I was on to something.
Even as a child when I saw this in the theater, I never thought Cherabog was a villian.
Say it in the Pooh voice and you’ll laugh even harder
Load More Replies...Look kids I’m dangerously going to jump on my little friend mistakenly lol 😂
Thinking about it, I’d agree with you. She seems to have an average, healthy build for a, technically non-human, ogre princess, rather than one of those skinny mannequins that most human princesses end up being.
Load More Replies...She further shares with us that this kind of getaway is safe and comfortable for women traveling alone. “We had fun exploring the parks in the morning, enjoying the hot tub in the afternoon, and dinner and shopping in the evenings.
The Disney Parks have become an entertainment destination. It's not hard to find activities for adults to enjoy, that's why it's become such a favorite for honeymooners, couples, and girls trips.”
He was THE main character, so we all knew nothing would happen to him. Disney wouldn't kill the main character.
They ALMOST killed Trusty in Lady & the Tramp. They actually DID kill him (there is a scene of Jock crying over his body), but Walt Disney was HORRIFIED so they added a scene at the end that shows he was just hurt badly and was recovering.
Load More Replies...I happen to be reading this in Mother's day and remembered that this is a sweet movie about Moms and daughters

The weirdest thing about Finding Nemo is that IRL Marlin would turn into a female clownfish and try to mate with Nemo.
That’s a whole different film. Finding Nemo a therapist, in cinemas 2026
Load More Replies...Carrie believes that the main thing that attracts adults to Disney is nostalgia. “If you are someone who visited as a kid, there's a warm fuzzy feeling you get when you walk down Main Street, USA, and see the same Cinderella's Castle you saw as a child. There's comfort in that, it's a feeling you want to hang on to.”
No matter how pretty a person may be on the inside; if she not pretty on the inside, then she will never be anything but an ugly woman. Pretty is as Pretty does, as my mom still says.
did anyone else sing that in their head to the melody of Part of Your World
If he or she is your boyfriend or girlfriend, marry them as soon as you possibly can!!
We were also curious to know, from her experience as a Disney travel agent, if there were any specific events or attractions that adults enjoyed while visiting. She says, “There are many things perfect for adults at Disney and beyond. For example, at Walt Disney World, you'll find fun events like the Epcot Food and Wine Festival, perfect for foodies or those looking for a fun evening trying new things.
At Disney's Boardwalk Resort, you'll find Jellyrolls Dueling piano bar, a personal favorite of mine, where piano players take requests in a combination of improv and musical genius. There are other places across the Walt Disney World Resort that offer live music, specialty beverages, and other entertainment that would easily fill a night for the over-21 crowd.”
One of my children used to say their arm was "all sparkly" when their arm would fall asleep. Perfect picture for that thought.
Momentary shout-out, I'm so grateful my kids found Emperor's New Groove. It's one of our fam faves. "No toucheee!"
This just brought back a memory I'd locked deep inside. A kid in school claimed he'd deliberately lay on his hand to make it dead so that when he had a "hand shandy" it felt like it was someone else giving it to him! I've just said it to my partner and apparently it was a bit of a thing...was it?! Please tell me no!
ive never been. First time at an amusement park was during 7th grade for a band competition and yeah.

I hate Disneyland. I know I'm in the minority here but I hadn't been in decades when I went again in 2008 and the park closed because it had reached capacity. It took us an hour and 25 minutes to get from cinderella's castle to the gate. And we were leaving at 9 o'clock.
Last went whe I was 14. I am 37 now. I will never go again
Load More Replies...In addition, she mentions the Adventures by Disney Vacations, which not a lot of fans may know about. According to Carrie, these are perfect for adventurers or those wanting to relax on their holiday. “Trips include destinations like Africa or Danube River cruises. This is a particularly nice option if you're looking for a Disney touch. Traveling overseas can be overwhelming, and Disney is a trusted name in vacation experiences and service,” she explains.
My bf and I went to our favorite local restaurant for lunch today. As we were leaving, the hostess at the front said "Do you guys have kids?" Without even thinking about what I was going to say, I said "We have two dogs and two cats." XD She blinked and was like "oh! well! That still counts! Happy Mother's Day!" XD I'd completely forgotten that Mother's Day was coming up XD I very much love living with my pets XD

I have a friend who talks to everyone but forgets she did so when they come say hi to her, she says hi and then asks me who that was.
Carrie believes that the community aspect of Disney is what drives adults to maintain a strong connection to it throughout their lives. “It's easy to find another adult in a store, waiting in line somewhere wearing a Disney tee, and strike up a conversation. Disney adults speak the same language. We get each other. We understand the parks are not just for kids, they are for anyone looking to find joy in something innocent and fun.”
I gave you something BETTER than ungrateful grandchildren, I gave you a CAT!
omg. we adopted a cat in October()2023 off the streets and he super nice and cute. recently adopted another two kitties.
Load More Replies...That cat's better behaved than the human small ones that would normally sit in that highchair....
No, the straw ends behind the cat's face.
Load More Replies...The one thing about little mermaid that always bothered me, even as a kid, is "bet they don't, reprimand their daughters~." Uh, hell yes they do and the apparent timeline you're born during is one of the absolute worst for females/daughters.
Agreed, they sure do. I always thought of this as the writers' way of giving us foreshadowing in the irony... a wink and a nod to women, 'she thinks the grass is greener, but we all know...'

You just gave me a flashback: My son LOVED this movie when he was 3, watched it daily when being "forced" to stop moving and eat. It's the only thing that worked. My mom was visiting. On day 4 of her visit, I hear her in the kitchen muttering: "Street, it's a damn street, stupid Ariel. STREET."
Load More Replies...hearing her yell "im 16 years old, im not a child" hits different when you're watching as an adult lol
She doesn't give up her identity. Marrying Eric is no different than any real life woman deciding to move away after she gets married.
Walt Disney himself was inspired to create the first-ever park after he had a disappointing experience visiting Griffith Park in Los Angeles. There, his two young daughters rode the merry-go-round while he sat on the sidelines, waiting, with nothing else to do. In a 1963 interview, he explained that he wanted to design a place where parents and children could have fun together.

Mine once walked me up in the middle of the night with “may I ask u a question” 🥲 I was horrified but it was just a question like “have you recently experience's trouble with making me react to “Alexa””
I woke up to the blue light going round and my Alexa said "I'm sorry, I don't know about the little boy" I sold it at next yard sale
Or when your dog flies off the bed in a barking rage. 😩
I sleeptalk, and as far as I'm aware, it's a whole lotta nonsense. Jeff Bezos' algorithms would be wrecked.
Sometimes she malfunctions and does weird stuff. This one is implying that someone else is in the room - or that Pooh talks in his sleep. My Alexa feels the need to tell me loudly whenever she loses the internet connection. Usually at 3am. :)

I'm fat and if my feet don't fit in a pair of shoes, I'm definitely not going to give my money to a small shoe manufacturer
Psychologists investigating this fandom found that the reason adults return to Disney time after time is because their inner child craves the safety and innocence it has to offer.
“When in childhood we don’t get our needs met, it’s not uncommon for us to try and meet those needs in adulthood,” Amber Sargeant, a registered psychologist, tells Bustle. It’s an experience that seems to be stuck in time - a person may grow up, but the music characters remain largely the same, inviting adults to come back.
My brother's girlfriend once did that in a crowded movie theater. She thought she was pretending to fart silently at my brother as a joke. Instead she ripped one that the whole audience heard. :)
But how was her timing? BRUUUUUUMP! "Gondor calls for aid!"
Load More Replies...Not everything needs to be remade, a lot of the recent ones haven't been great
By saying "a lot" you are suggesting something was at lest ok. Which one?!?!
Load More Replies...As somebody else already pointed out on a different page. Disney owns The Muppets. People will watch Muppet remakes of Disney movies.
I mean given that they're ok with puppy skinning that's an AWESOME idea. Or adapting A Tale Dark & Grimm (brilliant Adam Gidwitz children's novel; don't open before bed unless you want to finish it that night and then need to go to sleep somehow) to TV, that would keep up the remake tradition but still be similar.
Load More Replies...Noem might have gotten a pair of shoes out of it, depending on the size of the dog. Wouldn’t surprise me, actually..😳
Load More Replies...I'd like Atlantis: The Lost Empire as live action. We can do it right. No idea for the cast, though. I'd like Michael J Fox to have some role - Preston B. Whitmore would work.
We LOVED "Cruella". We've probably watched it half a dozen times.
Always so quick to judge! I'm glad you will have forgotten in 5... 4... 3...
Load More Replies...My kitty dashed in front of my n abruptly stopped as i was walking i kicked him n nearly fell over. He looked at he shocked n hurt xD
One of my cats is so DUMB that he literally lets me stand on his tail for several moments before half heartedly letting me know with a soft 'mrrrow'. He's also the one that if you nudge him to get him to MOVE he just flops over. Every. Time.
He may not be dumb but just not very sensitive. I got such a one 5 years ago. He is the only cat I have known who will sit purring while I am cutting his claws. And he flops over too. He is really smart however and a pest to get toys for. They are only interesting till he has figured out how they work, and that usually takes minutes.
Load More Replies...She glanced this way, I thought I saw. And when we touched, she didn't shudder at my paw.
No it can't be, I'll just ignore, but then she's never looked at me that way before
Load More Replies...And Darth and the Storm troopers are usurped by the cats and a new series begins... Light sabers have no effect unless they create dots of light on the ground/wall/surfaces.
That I would watch a new star wars movie for.
Load More Replies...The reason the Death Star wasn't completed on time was because they couldn't keep the fur out of the electronics.
What in god's name does she need those candles for? She gonna burn down the tower or something?
She keeps asking for fork handles and they never get her what she wants.
This is my mom. She always buys candles and has a cabinet full of them

If you independently produce anything, books, art, etc, you really can't do it without a social media presence, and —speaking as a writer— seldomly can you sell your products without letting others perceive you.
I have to admit,some guys have a similar effect by taking their beards of
He has his pinky out. The queen would have approved.
Does anyone else randomly put their finger out when drinking water or literally anything else?
Load More Replies...They scared me then and still do now...and I'm ashamed to say I don't know why!
They buried the headline, in a world pre television and internet, a library full of books is the real major selling point.

Load More Replies...Is there an age gap? The prologue says he has until his 21st year to break the curse (which means he was cursed at the age of 11).
They don't need to know about the evil of the House of Mouse until their older
I thought he was an antisemitic racist (particularly anti-Japanese during WW2), though that's from vague Wikipedia skimming and brief mentions in conversations?
I'm nearly 40, so cute gets a double take and a "certainly you can think of any other word for me" from me. Even b***h is more accurate 😇

Been bullied and called ugly by FRIENDS, always felt super bad about what I looked like. When in the mental hospital (which is way less serious than it sounds in my case- it was voluntarily so we still had our normal life, just therapy sessions instead of class and sleeping there), a straight girl (who I at first kinda liked before I knew she had a bf-, after I found out I got over liking her fast, we didn't talk much per se but did get along well, she was really kind) one evening, when it was just her, her bf, my bsf in the hospital and me, randomly told me "you're a really pretty girl", and I was in shock. I didn't know how to reply, couldn't even let out a 'thank you', and started tearing up a bit (it was dark already so she didn't see lolol), she specified that it was not meant in a 'lesbian way', but she just thinks I'm pretty. I told her my reaction wasn't bc of that, but bc "I'm used to hear the opposite". I will never forget that.
She's thinking, "It's only 4 feet deep here so if I sink to the bottom he'll be able to see I'm still here."
nah - she's thinking "4 ft deep is plenty of water to drown this fool in, but how can I make it look like an accident?"

Load More Replies...Oliver and Company is probably my favorite Disney Movie. All-star cast with great tunes.
At least in the disney version he wakes her up instead of her two (non consensual) babies sucking the magic splinter out of her finger.
Their movie branch lost the company around 2 billion dollars in the last few years - too high production costs with not enough return and lacking interest from audiences. They make income in other ways, but given that their core business isn't profitable anymore says a lot
I was today years old when I learned one of the skeletons on "Pirates of the Caribbean" is a mermaid...
And IIRC there were talks about a Bambi remake because the death of his mother is "too traumatic for children"...
Load More Replies...Also bloody paw prints. And later the villain dies on screen (well it is as a shadow but fairly brutal for a Disney animated movie)
Never, until this post, did I realize that those were there. The scene moves pretty fast and there's so much to take in that I just never noticed.
luckely that was the last of the gruesome imaginaries in that movie... ʳᶦᵍʰᵗˀ

Disney isn't Disney anymore. It's DISNEYCORP UNLIMITED. No kidding, look up everything Disney has their hands in. It's kind of disturbing. The creativity is gone anyway.
There was really no creativity in Disney until Pixar came along, before that Disney just recycled old fairytales.
