Steven Spielberg is a plagiarist! Clearly owes it all to Disney That’s right, the acclaimed wunderkind director/producer/writer/gaffer/best boy has been blatantly stealing from Disney for years. First he steals Robert A. Mattey, the special effects supervisor who created the giant squid effects for Disney’s “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea”, to create the […]

You’re Fat: Disney’s Gold Key Dining Plan Was the Trip of a Lifetime!
At least according to statistics you are. If you are an American then chances are good that you can’t fit into those huge pants of yours and it’s all Disney’s fault. Donald’s Lipitor prescription has not helped. Disney is pushing the Disney Dining plan these days… hard. It’s not because they are […]
Pitching a tent.
Camping sucks. You may catch poison ivy, be ravaged by malaria-riddled mosquitoes, or get mauled by a rabid squirrel all the while avoiding molestation by marauding hill-folk. Michael Eisner even wrote a book called “Camp” and you know that can’t be good. Where is the fun in eating canned meat and sleeping on the ground in […]
Even more lost (perhaps for good?) in Animal Kingdom
Usually we tend to be a little smarmy around here at the Parkeology offices. We lace our posts with humor, sarcasm and even (though often unintentionally) some wit. You know, we’re cool like that. On occasion we might become obsessed with something as we recently saw with Franco-American week month (stay tune for Shane’s upcoming […]
Survey Says!
A cryptic world hidden right before your eyes. A hint to a clandestine mystery right under foot. A sprawling network of clues cloaked from many, indiscernible to most, shrouded to all but the most inquisitive and yet visible to all in plain sight. But first, it’s time for the Family Feud! Nice shades That’s […]
Who you calling dummy… DUMMY!
Test Track is full of dummies. They get smashed and pounded in the queue, during the preshow and on the ride itself. These dummies were made to be abused; fiberglass and steel can take a great deal of punishment. Ummmm, wrong dummies. Carmakers use these crash test dummies to beat up, they are stand-ins, […]
Run Tiger Run!
Well you cannot turn on the news today without talk of Tiger this or Tiger that and we here at Parkeology.com are not immune to the salacious speculation of what exactly went wrong with Tiger. Me strong, you pretty… Of course our Tiger is not THE Tiger… our Tiger is what […]
The Hall of Imagineers (or how a mop saved the day)
The great thing about parkeology is that you never know where it is going to lead you. Such was the case as I did research on Richard Nixon’s many connections to the Disney parks. As I mentioned in that piece Nixon was the sitting president when the Hall of Presidents opened in 1971, the […]
I am not a Crook!
Well actually I really am not a crook, outside of trying to shoplift a fruit roll up when I was about 12 (and being caught doing so) crime has never been my thing. But I’m not talking about myself; I’m talking about one of the most infamous presidential quotes ever. It was near the end […]
