Star Wars Weekend Poster Art over the Years
My two great interests in life other than the family are Disney and Star Wars and what better way to join these two things together than in Star Wars Weekends held each year at the Disney Hollywood Studios in Orlando. S.W. weekends are held on 4 weekends in the May-June time of the year. These weekends have special Star Wars events such as autograph signings, special Star Wars/Disney merchandise and various entertainment events. These events are things such as a Star Wars themed parade, a lip sync/dance off staring SW characters, and other great meet and greets with never seen start wars characters. I, alas have never been to a weekend, but in following the information that comes out of the event, I kept track of these really cool advertisement posters. They were posted at the Orlando Airport the first year and have since found their way to various locations. As I was going through pictures on the box, I came across these posters and threw them into a Windows Live Video. I think these are all great. My two favorites are the Tie Fighter moored up at the end of the ramp and Vader in line with his boots off sharing all of our pain.
Enjoy!

The "We're Going to Walt Disney World" Podcast Show # 7
On this weeks show we spin the Wheel of Attractions one more time. This week the wheel landed on Peter Pan’s Flight. We all agreed that this is a great attraction and we talk about some of the things we like about the ride, some of the things we think they can add, and some tips about the line.
We next try out a new segment called “Beyond the Rides”. In this segment we discuss things we like to do at the WDW resort…that are not rides. We thought we’d switch it up between the Family Tip segment and this new one. This week we talk about the Behind the Seeds tour at Epcot’s the Land pavilion. We really liked this tour and the price and time needed were just right to do with the family. You can listen as we actually slip and give up a great family tip with this tour.
We also announce the winner of our first ever contest. I think I said first annual on the show. We’ll do this more often than annual. So Tune in for a really great show!

Our Disney-Net-Check this week is the Disney History Blog run by an internet friend of mine, Didier Ghez. This site is a source of incredible insights, interviews and articles about Walt and the Walt Disney Studios. He also has a great line of books of which volume 10 has just been released. Walt’s People are a set of books that let you read interviews of many of the people that worked with Walt and the Studios.
