DM> Uh... let me get this straight.. you think we shouldn't let Sarabi DM> hear this because she might be jealous at Sarafina? Well, who has DM> chosen Sarabi to be the queen? Confusing me. Well, I don't care DM> =), the movie is great!! I'm very satisfied with it and hope the DM> sequel will be REAL cool! =) JB> Yeah. The movie rules anyway. :) I hope Sarabi isn't listening. Please tell me what Hunchback is like when you've seen it. I don't have the chance to see it... I must wait a few months, or get the video from someone over there (but I *will* have to wait months for that too!). So, if you have alreadt seen it, please, just tell me what you think, what about the characters you remember, and all that. I already know that the music must be wonderful, although I haven't had the chance to hear it. I am listening to the Aladdin soundtrack at the moment, and I love it a lot. I just know that Hunchback's music is composed by the same author. Well, that's what I've heard about the music. Is it true? Anyway, I read everywhere that the soundtrack is really cool! Hey! How about a deal! Who would send me the CD in exchance for either the money or something else? Nala? Would you? OR anyone else? Would be really adorable! Although I must get rid off the stupid mail delivery service I am using and switch to a better one. Yeah, best would be a 24h service, All around the globe we live on. When then the time has come I'll squeeze myself into a letter and send myself over there. Yep! Do not fold please. =} JB> It's break her gentle heart. :) And they're really good friends, JB> probably best buds. Maybe they know about each other. ;) You mean that Sarabi and Mufasa are just 'best friends', and that Sarabi knows very well that Mufasa makes a go for every four legged in his realm or what? Uh... forgive me the stupid language, but I don't think it is so. Or well, who knows. But I don't think that would be alright. Sarabi and Mufasa are MARRIED! Well, kind of at least. Uh, well, they're not humans, they don't have to live like humans. Maybe that's better =), at LEAST when it comes to things like how to treat others (NICE.. and with much more warmth and care), treat the whole world in fact (I don't know about others, but I won't throw all the trash around... and I'm trying to treat the world with the most repect I can.)! =) JB> But who cares? It's a movie & it's Disney. That's all that counts. Yeah!! That's the final, the absolute, the most adorable fact about it! I just love that movie! Yesterday I've bought a COMIC of it. Well, I usually don't read much comics but I just COULDN't withstand all those lovely pictures in it! =] JB> :) The sequel will be so cool. I'm gonna miss Scar, though. He was JB> a cool lion. :) You're right, the best bad guy I've ever seen in a movie at all was Scar. It's just too easy to sympathize to him, and could have been such a cool AND nice & good guy, right ;)? It'd be so great to see him again as bad guy, but other the other hand that might be the stupidest idea at all! Yeah.... do it! DO include Scar in the sequel, and then let his fans write a book 'The stupidest things they've ever done'. Or 'The worst mistakes', the new bestseller. ;) No, they just can't let Scar show up again. But maybe his son is on the right side and as cool as Scar was? =) Hehehe.. well, I think we'll be pretty surprised. I HOPE we will be! Somehow I wanna be surprised with it (a GOOD way of course!). I don't like seeing movies where you always know what will happen, just by guessing it a few seconds before. Or (even worse) that you know it before the movie starts, when it is too obvious. Even if you didn't knew before. JB> I'm satisfied! :) That's my favorite Disney animated movie so far! Mine too! I *LOVE* that Dinsey movie more than any other! More than *ANY* other movie, not only Disney. I didn't like Pocahontas as much as I like Lion King! And ... well, because I happen to like Movies with animals more than those with humans, I think this is not gonna change with Hunchback. But I'll let them surprise me when I can. But as you already noticed... I am just too curious about it. See, I just asked you about it's characters & stuff while saying that I like to be surprised. Where's the logic at it? HELP! ;) ... Well, I'll let you take the responibility when you tell me about it =], but I guess... well, since I am reading this echo and all the messages, I will know pretty much all about it BEFORE I will see it the 1st time. Pretty stupid somehow. I will not see a Disney movie I don't know when I continue that way. But in a certain time I will be able to see it same time with most others. And together with some (Now) far away friends if they let me join the club, yeahhh... =>. JB> Watched "Old Yeller" yesterday. *sniff* How sad. Oh well. At least JB> he has that cute little puppy now. :) I have never heard about Old Yeller, sorry... please fill me in, what is it about? A TV show? Or an entire movie? 'Full length animated motion picture' ? ;)... BTW: I'm curious why they call it full length. You know what I'm dreaming of? Seeing a 300 minutes animated Disney movie ... First class, disney features. Something really loooooooong...! I don't think I would consider a 90 minutes (or less) movie a 'full length...' whatever they call it =).

HEY... what about THAT idea, I'll draw a baby genie ;)... purrr....purrrrr... what do you think?

What does it NH> have that Walt Disney World doesn't? I've been to DL Paris and liked NH> that one a bit better. I think it was because it had more of an NH> ending (or more of a story) to it. <<< SPOILER ALERT >>> Some attractions are just different at the two parks, but Pirates of the Carribean at DL is so drastically better that they really don't deserve the same name. Let me try to describe the major differences (to the best of my limited memory), and then the other EchoEars can tell us both what I got wrong: Ignoring the differences in the facade and outside queue, where the inside queue at WDW winds down some spooky tunnels through the fort to the boarding area, at DL you follow along a canal full of returning boats. This gives you a chance to quiz survivors about the journey, though few will talk to you for reasons of shock. Behind them is a nice tableau of stolen treasure with a jolly skeleton to greet you. Where the boarding area at WDW seems like a secret escape route from the fort, at DL, it is at the edge of the bayou. Your boat starts off with a splash, and then drifts quietly through the lagoon. It's twilight, with the stars just starting to come out, and the tables of the Blue Bayou Restaurant line the edge of the dock to your right. Fireflies dance in the dusk under the willows, and a resident of the swamp sits in his shack picking on a banjo. All in all, it is one of the most restful and calming scenes in the whole park, and I sometimes wish I could just tie my boat up to one of the cypresses and rest a spell. Pretty soon, you see some old walls, like you were floating into some old sunken fort. The music grows slowly more ominous, and a voice begins to warn you of the dangers ahead. "Thouroughly warned, ye be," says he. Then you round a corner to see the speaker is but a skull, and the sound of rushing water gives credence to his tale ... when you suddenly pass into a dark cavern and WHOOOSH!! Down the waterfall you go. You hear the voices of men joined in song, and just as you think you can make out the words WHOOOSH!! Another waterfall takes you down to the level of the pirates. This entry to the pirates' town is all the more effective, IMHO, for the preamble. The soothing effects of the bayou and slow banjo music form a stark contrast to the waterfalls and raucous song of the marauding pirates, and it's this contrast that makes them seem all the more terrible. The middle portion of the ride is fairly similar at both parks, the treasure rooms a little more ornate at WDW, the early shipwreck scenes a bit better at DL, but largely the same show. Near the end, differences of substance again appear: At WDW, the attraction simply peters out and you end up, unremarkably, back at the boarding dock. At DL, however, your escape is not at all certain. (The fire effects, when first viewed by Anaheim fire officials, were so convincing that they required a number of emergency cutoffs be installed so that in the case of a *real* disaster, firefighters would not waste precious time fighting fake fires!) At both parks, the final scene has drunken pirates firing their pistols at a suspended keg of dynamite--how to get out? In a Disnical way, of course: UP a waterfall! Like a primitive version of the lift at Splash Mountain--well, really like the noisy ratchety lift on Big Thunder Mountain, with water--up you go, out of the inferno, and into the canal that borders the entry queue. Too excited to talk much to the other guests, you are still a bit too excited to even breath after your narrow escape. But not too excited to come back again... The WDW Pirates can't hold a candle, much less a flaming torch, to the DL Pirates. Of course, that's just my opinion, but I'm right!
