This is by no means a "Best of" post simply a small gathering of DisFanReview's Staff favorites. Also keep in mind that they are in no specific order. Believe me we tried to make it a top five and there was no way to come to a consensus. There was lots of in fighting, one staffer was even bitten by a goat. Yeah, we are still trying to figure out who brought the goat. So without any further dawdling, here are our favorite 5 DisFanReview article's of 2009.
In October we brought you a series of videos that appear to show ghosts wandering the grounds of the "Happiest Place on Earth." One video in particular seemed to show the ghostly figure of Uncle Walt himself. Some people say the whole "Ghost's at Disneyland" thing is just a gimmick to get more people in the parks, I say, If Walt Disney loved Disneyland as much as he is reported too, wouldn't he hang out there all of the time, even in the afterlife? I know I would. After all, doesn't Disneyland have free admission for "Grim Grinning Ghosts?"
In august we brought you this cute, and slightly irritating story of a young girl who lives in a rural town, and tried to earn money for a trip to Disneyland by selling lemonade. That is until the local authorities stepped in and shut down her lemonade stand. You can read the entire article HERE.
Don't you hate it when you are trying to video tape your kid's and some jerk walks right in front of you, completely blocking your child and ruining the frame? What if that jerk was Nicolas Cage? This is a real video. This actually happened and... Well click HERE, read the article and see this wild video for yourself. I cannot believe Nicolas Cage's reaction to the situation. Plus, it's totally unbelievable to me that this video has less than a thousand views. Show it to everyone you know!
Okay so the above image actually has nothing to do with the article in question... Okay thats not true. The article in question is about Reggae artist Matisyahu's shout out to DisFanReview, live on stage in Brooklyn, NY. As Mikey from Magic City Mayhem put it, "It's like getting a shout out from the Beastie Boys in front of the whole world!" Yeah, that is exactly how we felt about it. Matisyahu is just too cool! Now the image above is actually a concert poster that we put together to commemorate Matisyahu's October 21st 2009 live show at the House of Blues in Downtown Disney at the Disneyland Resort.
This was personal favorite. As a fan of Disneyland, I love to shoot video, every time I am at the parks. It is just so much fun to have a visual record of the experience. Back in 1956 Robbins Barstow had the same idea. he took his 8mm camera and shot his families entire trip and made a nice home movie out of it. The difference? Mr. Barstow's "Disneyland Dream" eventually became a national treasure, now forever enshrined at the Library of Congress. -Admiral Duke
