What is the purpose of ‘hidden mickey’s’ in Disney films?

disney films
Nir Vana asked:


One actually cannot find or look for them while watching the movie unless your sole purpose for watching is to look for them and so you’ll keep on pausing the player. I just don’t see any value-add.

M. asked:


How long is the ride on the monorail from the downtown disney station to the tommorowland station. Not the round trip. I’m talking about Disneyland in California, not Walt Disney World in Florida.

Saria A asked:


I remember that they created Disney-MGM in response to the main Universal park (and opened it ahead of Universal, lol), and the ride Dinosaur in response to Jurassic Park.
Also, if you had to guess what will be the next big attraction Disney announces?

Has Disney officially and publicly acknowledged the passing of Wayne Allwine?

disney
Mami_Q asked:


I remember reading the statement from his wife and fellow voice-over artist, Russi Taylor. (current voice Minnie Mouse)

However, I never got wind of anything from Disney brass.

I wonder if they have some sort of pre-existing agreement for current voice actors, in event of their passing?
Lord knows I haven’t mentioned it to my kids!

How to make disney illusions and special effects?

disney
wolfeman8 asked:


I am looking forward to becoming an imagineer for Disney one day, specifically in the “illusioneering” department. Illusioneering is pretty much responsible for making all the special effects you see through out any Disney ride such as the pirates of te caribbean fire, space mountain star field, haunted mansion ghosts etc.. Does anyone know how I can do little projects or learn how to do and create special effects/illusions. Thank you any help would be greatly appreciated.
