I remember seeing all the different size Mickey Mouse shaped items, from bushes shaped like mickey to stone tiles and doors. My and my younger siblings took off running touching everything and pointing out everything. We could…
These all include actors, directors, produces, musical groups, theatrical groups, fictional characters like Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck; even Walt Disney and Disney land have one.

Many people were shocked to actually hear voices and sound without a person playing the piano in the corner of the theater. The sound began to boost movie sales for SteamBoat…
Who can’t remember growing up and watching Disney movies as a child? By inspiring children and adults all over the world, Disney is trying to recapture the magic once made by Walt Disney by turning many of the movies in to live action movies, but it has not worked.

My most memorable vacation was a trip to Florida with two of my best friends a few years ago. They were both moving halfway across the country soon, so we decided to splurge on one last trip together. We drove all the way to Florida from New York. It took nearly 24 hours of driving, but we finally made it. We visited Disney World, Universal Studios, and the beach because we had never been to any of those places before. Our vacation was filled with thrills, some disappointment, and ended on a…

live action. Some of their most popular movies and attractions involve some version of a story where a charming prince saves a princess from peril or a plot that purposefully subverts that formula to the delight of a progressive society. While Mickey Mouse has become a cultural icon, one of the first things people think of when they think of Disney are the princesses: Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, Pocahontas, Mulan, Tiana, Rapunzel, and Merida (Brave).…

epitomization of Hollywood movie industry, so all the classic movies have their statuses here. On the other hand, Disneyland is serviced by The Walt Disney Company, and all the rides and decoration are designed by their own movies. As a result, Micky Mouse can be seen in Disneyland though Harry Potter can only be seen in Universal Studio. The age group is another major problem to chose where to have a vacation.
