Disney has released some details about the forthcoming Sleeping Beauty release on Blu-Ray Disc. Some of the features on the disc are going to include a chat feature while watching the movie, Trivia games with fellow viewers across the country and show your local weather on the main menu behind Sleeping Beauty castle. Of course, those without Blu-Ray profile 2.0 won't be able to access most of these futures. Check to make sure the player you want to buy is 2.0 before plopping down your $400.

'The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian'
Finally the culmination of all of the Narnia stories we've been brining you since January. In it's first weekend in theaters the second Narnia movie brought in an estimated $56.6 million in it's first weekend. This was below the lofty expectations set by the first film, but nothing to feel bad about. However with Indy opening this week, it's reign at the top of the box office will most likely be short lived.

Disneyland in 1967 (Home Video)
Self-described nerd tofubeast shares her dad's old 8 mm footage of her parents' first trip to Disneyland in 1967. Enjoy this wonderfully nostalgic video, filled with so many old memories. It's hard to tell, but I think I might have seen some mermaids in the sub lagoon! And I know I spotted some groovy 60's fashions along with the beloved Skyway buckets!

Whatever Happened to Disneylandia?
tofubeast has read a chapter in a book about Walt Disney, talking about Disneylandia and wonders what ever happened to these miniatures? No responses so far, so please help out if you know what ever happened to Disneylandia? I sure don't, but you can bet I am curious now!
