When I first saw The Princess Bride, I loved it so much that I had to get the book and read it. Every now and then, I still watch the movie or read passages of the book again. That is how funny, crazy and awesome the movie is to me. Could you imagine, then, my excitement when I found out that Disney Theatrical Productions is taking it to Broadway?
The announcement was pretty vague, really, as it gave no potential dates or details about the adaptation. I will keep you all posted, though, whenever I find out any details. And be sure I will be the first in line for my tickets to the first show! Dreams really do come true! 

Disney has been on a Broadway binge lately, adding a musical adaptation of the animated film, Aladdin to the lineup later this month. Frozen has also been confirmed as a Broadway Show project- surprisingly fast... is the movie even out on DVD yet? or better still, Netflix? Disney is finding more and more ways to capitalize on the earth-shattering success of its film franchise and lucky for us, it's moving things in a more mature direction for those of us who no longer wet the bed. 

In case you weren't already excited enough- here's a picture of when the original cast recently reunited to celebrate the film's 25 anniversary. enjoy.

Pink Elephants On Parade

I was watching Dumbo last night, and I found out that I had forgotten one of the creepiest scenes in a Disney movie ever. Even looking over the fact that the entire situation begins with a very young child getting drunk on champagne, Pink Elephants on Parade can be delightfully unsettling. The psychedelic images are accompanied by a rather dark melody and it only gets more confusing as it develops. What do you think? Here is the video, in case you don't remember the scene.

    Hello, Alfreda here! I am an Orlando native...Disney World isn't just about princesses and fairies. There is a dark underbelly hidden under all the glitter. I am absolutely crazy about it!
