Events that shaped the


Walt Disney Company

June 29

2007: Ratatouille is released to theaters nationwide. It's Pixar's eighth animated feature film. Directed by Brad Bird (the creative force behind The Incredibles), Ratatouille, (pronounced rat-a-too-ee) follows the adventures of a rat named Remy as he dreams of becoming a famous French chef. The film features the voices of Patton Oswald (as Remy), John Ratzenberger, Janeane Garofalo, Brad Garrett and Petor O' Toole.



1974: America Sings debuts at Disneyland in Tomorrowland's Carousel Theater. The attraction features over 100 Audio-Animatronic figures and replaces the General Electric Carousel of Progress – which is relocated to Walt Disney World.


1908: Disney Legend John Hench is born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Mr. Hench started with the Walt Disney Company as a story artist in 1939 and would eventually become the senior vice president of Walt Disney Imagineering.

John Hench, Disney Legend 1908–2004. During his 65 years with the company (the longest of any Cast Member) he personally witnessed the creation of almost every Disney theme park and animated feature. He contributed to such classics as Dumbo, Fantasia and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Among his many other accomplishments, he was also responsible for designing Cinderella's Castle at Walt Disney World and the original designs for Space Mountain.
 
Woot!

I love reading about the history of Disney. :cool1:
 
Oh man glad they added this, John Hench is one of my idols and sad I could not meet him before he passed away.
 
Hard to understand how "Ratatouille" could shape their company when it hasn't even been out 24 hours yet. :confused3

Just more VMK weird logic I guess. :lmao:

The graphics are amazing. The story line is cute. It will make an impact...just give it time.

It probably will **in time**.
But less the 24 hours is hardly an event that can change a company unless it is an A-bomb. LOL

I suppose...but with every film, the "story" of Disney changes...Each has an effect in some way or another. :)
