Rotten Tomatoes has just posted a Photo Tour of the Walt Disney Animation Studios, which I must say has some highly flattering photos of the building and grounds. I wish they'd posted photos of the Frog pod, but that wasn't really what they were covering ... I guess we'll have to wait till next year. The best tour is still on the Emperor's New Groove special edition DVD but that, apparently, is hard to find.

Mwa ha ha, I have it! I didn't for years, but I picked it up at a local used book/CD/DVD store called Thrifty Joe's. Whee.

If I ever remember how to rip DVDs to a computer/have the time to do it, I'll have to put it on YouTube or otherwise put a copy of it on the internet. Because I'm evil, and special features should never be locked away in a vault, DISNEY. *tsk tsk*

Thanks for the link, I'm checking it out as we speak. :D

BOLT. I LOVE BOLT.

Looks like a nice place to work. In the same way that if I showed you the lounge at Studio B, I'd think THAT would be a nice place to work.

I love Bolt too. I think I will be buying the Combo DVD pack for the Blu-Ray I don't yet have and the iTunes converter so I can also have it on my iTouch.

Carlos, BTW, makes the best frozen mochas.

By *buying* I mean unless someone gives me a copy. *cough* Like a signed copy. Like for my birthday or something.

Hey, I only get one copy, and I have my own agenda for mine.

Darn! So much for my hopes and dreams.

If only there was some place where someone could get such a DVD set, like for cheaper than in the average store because they get some sort of discount or something. And, if only such a person could work at a place where people who might have actually worked on "Bolt" hang around. Then, what if that person could get some of those people who worked on "Bolt" to sign that DVD set. . . or those who helped them make that movie sign it too, like Carlos for example. Then, that person COULD mail off (or hand deliver) the DVD set to someone for their birthday! That would really be cool.

NAH! That sort of dreaming is for chumps.

Buying it at Costco would give you the same discount I get at the Studio Store (no joke).

That's a great idea. Then I can get the checkout clerk to sign it, the lady who checks the receipt at the door, then, if I get REALLY lucky, the cart wrangler!

The lounge at Studio B IS nice. For all the building's drawbacks at least I can say that I, a lowly apprentice animator, have MY OWN CUBE and it's easily twice the size of any workspace I had up there, with the addition of privacy (mostly) and four walls to pin stuff on.

I am so glad you like Bolt – you're a tough critic. :) I'm amazed it's still playing in Canada, it's been out of theatres for weeks down here.

I am? Aww, that's nice of you to say. I posted just a few days ago about Bolt, dunno if you caught that.

STEALTH MODE .......... :)

I did catch it, and would have written pretty much what I wrote above only I didn't have the time, at the time. :)

(Favourite gag in the movie)

I managed to get The New Groove collector's edition from when it was still in stores. Tarzan I had to get online and I still want Atlantis D:

Those pictures are so exciting!
