Leave a Legacy



Even though your face might never be as known as Walt Disney's, Disney is still giving you one final chance to Leave a Legacy at WDW's Epcot. HURRY, because according to laughingplace, Epcot is discontinuing the sales of legacy tiles on JUNE 16th, so buy yours today!





In Disney Channel news... the brand spankin' new DCOM, Johnny Kapahala: Back on Board is officially OPEN! Click on the photo below to visit the site where you can view exclusive behind the scenes video blogs and photos, play games, take quizzes, give shoutouts, learn about dirtbiking, and more! (A little tidbit I noticed: the new DCOM has Johnny's last name as Kapahala... but in his last DCOM, Johnny Tsunami, his last name was spelled Kapahaala *notice the extra A?*)





Did you ever want to see HIGH SCHOOL MUSICALon BROADWAY? Well... here's your chance.. (KIND OF...) You see, Paul Cozby wrote his very own play with the same name... "High School Musical" before the Disney Channel made their own movie into an international hit! However, because theatres might not be able to afford a license to Disney's HSM, they are turning to Cozby's piece to get in on the action. (I'm sure you heard of this incident in the past, but if you haven't...) When asked about Cozby's views on Disney' HSM:

"'I was just very surprised,' he said. 'The plot elements are just very similar. If you put the two works side by side, the similarities are remarkable — obviously beginning with the title.'

Cozby's lawyer, Charles Baker of the Houston firm Porter & Hedges LLC, told Playbill.com that Cozby has filed suit against Disney Enterprises, 'claiming they stole his idea, claiming they infringed upon his trademark title [and] seeking damages and seeking an injunction" against the use of the title by Disney and, essentially, the continuation of the property.'"
