Newest Disney Bootlegs Spoted

A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.

Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

My daughter attended a birthday party Saturday, and Belle was in attendance. The place the parents hired her from claims that their princesses are all former CMs, and that they are actually licensed by Disney to send their "Disney Princesses" on house calls! I have my doubts....
However Belles' friend did seem to have it down perfectly! She probably was a CP friend, and I'm sure violated a number of documents she signed with Disney.

I think being the charactor for disney does Not allow you to keep doing it on your own. You were hired to be a actor while working for disney, after that you do not still have a license to go off on your own.

Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Here in Orange, there's a preschool with Winnie The Pooh characters on the outside of the building; though I'd say there are enough differences in them to keep Disney Legal off their backs. But still you can recognize Christopher Robin, etc. on there--they are just lacking in detail.

I got an email from Wish Upon A Hero --www.wishuponahero.com--that they are spotlighting 3 wishes people have submitted to them; one of those is that someone's daughter had a wish to go to WDW and see the Princesses.

I have a few wishes of my own on there, though the one for Tripod and a place to live are no longer relavent; trouble is I can't seem to edit/remove them, or update them. But check it out--it's a site born from 9/11.
