Disney Quote of the Day

The very things that hold you down are going to lift you up. 
~ Timothy Mouse ~ Dumbo (1941) 


Did You Know?

Initially Walt Disney was not interested in making Dumbo. To get him interested, animators, Joe Grant and Dick Huemer didn't initially submit a completed storyboard but storyboard installments. To peak his interest they had cliff hangers at the end of each "chapter". One "chapter" was left on Walt's desk every morning. Finally, he ran into the story department saying, "This is great! What happens next?"

  2. Wow - how interesting! I wanted to use a picture of Timothy Mouse from the new Fantasyland Expansion. We visited in the rain in September but I thought I had some good pictures (with noone in the park!) However, they were both of his backside! LOL
