Fave Disney character - Bugs Bunny

You do realize IoA is Universal, not Disney, and Bugs belongs to Warner Bros., right?

There has been discussion about starting a new, merged, "Introduce yourself" and "What do you look like?" thread... So I thought I'd help out our favorite Mod by doing so...

So, here's the deal... please introduce yourself to the gang and post a pic. We promise to be nice and not laugh at you.

(It takes 10 posts to be able to post your picture, so if you don't have enough posts yet, remeber to come back once you do!)

Please include your name, an explaination of your username, where you live, where you have lived in the past, marital/dating status, favorite Disney park, favorite Disney movie, favorite Disney prince or princess, and favorite Disney character (and anything else you'd like to share).

Thanks!

Hello all, my name is Jordan, and I live in Cincinnati.

I used to live in Austin. I'm currently single, and still somewhat in the closet.

My favorite park is Disney's Animal Kingdom

My favorite disney movie is the Adventures of Chip & Dale

My favorite prince is Aladin (gorg)

My favorite disney character is Dale, just love his personality.

I'm also an avid collector of animals, and currently own about 45 gerbils. I just love them so much, and they help me relax and enjoy myself.

Bugs and Mickey Mouse made a cameo together in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, therefore it should count... IMO

I read recently that WB would only allow Bugs to be in WFRR if he got the same amount of screen time as Mickey Mouse. So they appear together throughout the movie. BTW Jessica Rabbit is a DIVA lol

I love the relationship with Bugs and Elmer Fudd, they seem to have a very love hate relationship. That Elmer Fudd really gets me going as well

Hello. I'm Alex, I'm 25, and I'm from Northern Indiana. Besides being a total Disney geek, I'm a movie buff, vegetarian, news junkie, semi-activist studying political science. I'm single (not much activity up here in Northern Indiana) and I have a miniature schnauzer who is the world's most perfect dog.

My favorite park is probably EPCOT and my favorite character is Ursula.

I'm a former Disney Store cast member and I collect pins (of course) and villain or any macabre vinylmation.

I try to make it to the parks as much as possible. I visited WDW last year with my family and DL/D23 Expo as well.


I am going to be visiting WDW again in August (4-9) with a friend.

Follow me on twitter to see my picture and keep up with my rantings and ravings: ghollywood.

I love going to Epcot for the Food and Wine Festival

The Expo was just OKAY...I''m still planning on going again next year though
I think the general consensus was that the crowds were way larger than expected...next time, hopefully everyone (including Disney) will be prepared...I only went two days to the expo, and did 2 1/2 days at DL/DCA. I'm lucky to have a relative who lives about 15 mins. from DLR who let me stay with him and use his car!

I wish I had somebody that lived near by to stay with LOL. Yeah the crowds were ridiculous!!! Don't know I'll go back next year still undecided.

Hi, I'm Joe. The user name is because I love coffee. The NJ part doesn't apply anymore. I lived in NJ my whole life, but then moved down to Tampa, FL in May with my partner Ron.

We've been together for 12 years. I've always loved Disney simply for the fact that you can let go and be a kid again and no one cares. I've slowly converted Ron over to the Disney side and now he loves it almost as much as I do.

My favorite park is the Magic Kingdom, but when I want a drink, my favorite park is EPCOT.

My favorite movie is "Beauty and the Beast."

Favorite princess is Belle.

Favorite Disney character is Goofy. (He's tall like me).

Glad to be in Tampa so close to Disney. Bought my annual pass on Day 1 and already go my money's worth!

So we decided to signup with a new name since we don't live in Ohio anymore and it was too hard to explain to people why we were "OH 6" if we live in GA now. So we went with a less geographical name this time since we seem to keep moving every few years for work. We're now "Disneyxperts".

We're Nicholas and Michael - Together for 18 years on 15 August

We collect villains and like the classics in the parks like the Electrical Parade and Space Mountain and The Enchanted Tiki Room.

• Favorite park is probably Magic Kingdom tied with EPCOT.
• Favorite time to visit is in the Fall. We like Food and Wine and Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party.
• We are HUGE Disney Cruise Line fans. Seems like we spend more time on the ships now than we do in the parks.
• Favorite movies are Little Mermaid or Mulan.

We usually get down to the parks a few times year. Next year looks like it will be Tokyo Disneyland and Med cruises on DCL - so may not be at WDW much in 2013.

Always looking for more friends. We plan on 'retiring' in Orlando in about 10 years while we're still young-ish (We'll be just over 50 then) and working at the parks or for DVC or DCL.

 

[DisneyFreak1976]

Hi All, My name is Christian. My username refers to my self proclaimed love of all things Disney and my birth year. (I'm 35)

I currently live in the Boston area, but have plans to move to the Orlando area come 2014. It's been a lifelong dream of mine to work for Disney and have never gone after it for one reason or another. Well it's time I live my dream. I'm originally from Oregon.

I am single

Favorite Disney Park is Magic Kingdom and then Animal Kingdom. The Magic Kingdom brings me back to when I first visited Walt Disney World in 1981 as a 5 year old. While the Animal Kingdom gives me a relaxing feeling. I don't feel the need to rush there.

Favorite Disney Movie - Gosh this is hard as I love them all. But Snow White is my all time favorite. For 2 reasons. 1) It was the one that started them all and 2) The Evil Queen. To me she is the best villain of them all. So regal and beautiful while yet evil.

Favorite Prince would have to be Prince Phillip. He's so dreamy. lol Favorite Princess is Aurora/Briar Rose. She's so pretty.

Favorite Disney Character is most definitely Goofy. I feel I'm like him in a lot of ways.

So I'm new to the online group thing. Although I'm glad I found it and decided to join. My friends don't understand my "obsession" and I need people who do. lol

 

[DisneyDork1969]

My name is John.

My username comes from the fact that I am a HUGE Disney Dork...and that I was born in 1969...LOL!!!

I live in Chicago, but I hope to move to Uncle Walt's in a couple years.

I'm 42 and will be celebrating my B-Day this November for a whole week. I'm single after my 15-year relationship recently ended. I think I'm done with relationships...for now.

Fave Disney Park is a toss up between Magic Kingdom and Epcot. With the new Fantasyland expansion happening, MK might take the lead!

Favorite Disney Movies are Pinocchio & Peter Pan...boys who never want to grow up...!!!

Favorite Disney prince is the Prince from B&B...

And my favorite Disney characters are Pinocchio & Peter Pan...

I'm Brianna! My user name is my sorority and a nickname-not too original lol!

I live in Texas in a small town about an hour east of Houston, I've lived here forever with the exception of a few years I lived in Lake Charles, LA for college. I think Orlando will be my second home in 2013 as I'm planning on doing all the RunDisney Events starting with my very first full marathon in January!

I'm very much single.

Favorite park is a toughie - I love them ALL. . .however you can't really beat the "classic-ness" of Magic Kingdom! Hollywood Studios is up there as well because of Rockin Rollercoaster and Tower of Terror I'd hate not to mention Epcot too!

Favorite Disney Movie is another toughie! Little Mermaid, Cinderella, Mulan, Sleeping Beauty, Fantasia . . omg I love them all lol!

Favorite Disney Princess - Ariel

Favorite Disney Character is always going to be Mickey

My pic is in my avatar
