For the last 2 months the Parkeology offices have been abuzz with debate, arguments and the occasional arm wrestling match as we tried to definitively answer once and for all which Disney park was the best in the world. Catch up here, here or here: Lets do this thing! Shane suffered a […]
The Misquotable Pinocchio
You know how some of those old Disney songs have all these weird words to remember? If you can recite entire verses of Higitus Figitus without a cheat sheet and a degree in linguistics, you are either some kind of savant or your name is Richard M. Sherman. If you can’t, don’t feel bad. Even […]
Ask Captain Nemo
If you need some information about Walt Disney World, all you have to do is pick up the phone and call Guest Relations. If you want your information to actually be accurate, go to Deb Wills. And for some of you, all the information you ever need is stored in your head, including the latest […]
Country Dinosaur Jubilee
The story goes that when Disneyland was first being built, they had no funds, no good ideas, and no edible landscape with which to manufacture a good Tomorrowland. Today, they might just fill it with character greeting areas and call it a Fantasyland Expansion, but back then they just went with whatever they had: Bathrooms […]
Lion King House of Horrors
Who doesn’t love the Lion King? It is non-stop cuddly creatures from the opening number until the very end of the movie. Snuggly lions, huggable warthogs, squeezy giraffes. Just sitting in the movie theater makes you want to save all the animals in the world, to spread a message of peace, love, and harmony. We […]
Is the Walt Disney World Radio Station Still Broadcasting?
It’s been quite a few years since my first trip to Disney World. Even my hundredth trip is far back in the rearview mirror. But every kid who ever made frequent pilgrimages to this little patch of Central Florida has that favorite “tell,” a fun little indicator that you were close. Really close. So close […]
Thrilla in Parkzilla: ROUND THREE!
If you are late to the fight you can check out the impact of round one HERE and take a beating with round two HERE. Lets get into the mood… As a reminder, this brutal fight was actually waged five years ago when it first ran on Miceage.com, we are re-running it in its original […]
Gun Logic in the Great Movie Ride
I love simple solutions to complex problems. Maybe that’s why I used my first pick on Alexander the Great in my World Conquerors Fantasy draft. Not only did he solve the Gordian Knot, but he’s led the league in rushing the past three years. Plus, he’s a huge Disney fan. Rope Drop at the Magic […]
Peter Pan’s Shadow is the Only Real Shadow in Peter Pan’s Flight
In the Parkeology offices, we have a pretty decent collection of shadows. Some of these are fairly standard. You’ll find them in any shadow collection. But we also have some rare ones. We’ve got a Yeti shadow from Everest and an actual talking Brer Frog shadow from Splash Mountain. A few months back, we captured […]
