The MousePod - MousePod #26 - ...and the Oscar Goes to Disney

[Kevy Baby]

As in the interviews, I am off man out when it comes to hearing my own voice - it doesn't bother me. Probably because I am used to hearing it (from years of DJing and Radio).

I just cringe at some of the things I said.

[RStar]

Well then, if you were a DJ, then you must have a decent voice to start with!

You are truely blessed.

It was so odd last night to realize that almost the entire Los Angeles contingent of the mousepod Oscars panel were in attendance at a screening of the Oscar-nominated short subjects.



We had a strange urge to call Jesse afterwards to discuss the films.

[Snowflake]

I finished listening this morning. Jesse, my hat is off to you, really. I can only imagine the time it took to edit everything down, you did an awesome job fitting so many different pieces into a cohesive whole.

I gotta say, I was and am really flattered you invited me to participate with such an august group of Disney experts. It was exciting for me to do it and miserable for me to hear myself

That said, the time absolutely flew by. A really good shew and, as always, great musical selections.

You could just do a show on covers of Disney music and pull out some amazing things, I am sure.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Still only about an hour in, but I'm enjoying it so far. I keep being reminded about lines of discussion we had "live" that I had forgotten about by the time Jesse called to record, so it's been nice to pick those up again. I'm also really loving the different perspective everyone seemed to bring. Some of us seemed to be focused on the technical aspects, some on the artistic, some on the social, some on their personal experience with each film, some with the films' presence around the world of Disney.

Oh, and those "extra-credit" players aren't working for me either.

I'm kinda tech-challenged, so I'm not gonna be downloading any alternate browsers or sundry software just so's I can view them.


sorry.

but it was a nice attempt to share.

[Cadaverous Pallor]

Forgot to post - I really enjoyed this podcast with all the myriad opinions. I now know why I'm wrong about Toot, Whistle, Plunk and Boom - because I never watched it in school Wonderful job, Jesse. That was a lot of fun to record, too.

[lindyhop]

I'll finish listening tomorrow (I know, I'm slow) but just wanted to say what a great job editing all the comments into a cohesive whole. I'm really enjoying it.

[mousepod]

Just got off the phone with flippyshark, who gave me an idea for tomorrow's show. The majority of the show will be taken up by an interview I did with an expert on Disney WWII stuff, and the rest will be odds and ends.

So he suggested that I do a short "round table" on It's Tough To Be A Bird, since I finally found a copy of the theatrical version (and posted it). If anyone is available to talk about it tonight or tomorrow, please PM me.

... and if you, like iSm, can't watch the embedded flash video but want to talk, I'll reencode it to a more watchable format ASAP.

This could be fun.
