Happy Birthday Mickey
Mouse!!! Today is also the anniversary of the release of “Steamboat
Willie”, the first Mickey Mouse cartoon released by
Disney! Let’s all go to Disneyworld!!!
Mickey Mouse Club
Who here watched the “Mickey Mouse Club”?
I’m not talking about the one that Britney, Christina and Justin were on; I
mean the old one, with Annette. Yeah, I know, most of you aren’t old enough
o remember the original. Well, neither am I, but I’ve seen it. I don’t
know how, but I know I’ve seen it.
Now, can any of you name
any of the original Mouseketeers? Can’t think of any other than Annette?
Me neither. That’s because none of the others ever gained any real level of
fame after the show. I found this great article about the original “Mickey
Mouse Club” on
mental_floss
titled 6 Little-known
Secrets of the Mickey Mouse Club.
What celebration of the
Walt Disney Company would be complete without a foray into some of the
mistakes they have made throughout history? The folks at Cracked.com
have once again used their incredible minds to gather a list of
the 9 Most Racist Disney Characters in movies and shows.
Disney movies aren’t
racist, you say? Do you remember the Crows, from “Dumbo”?
Or the Merchant from “Aladdin”?
Makes you think, huh?
