This month we shall return to the ever fun Disney Facts Revealed: Answers to Fans' Curious Questions by Dave Smith! I kind of skim this book every time I bring it out for one of these posts. And basically choose the best "fact" like questions. Some are sort of general like asking Dave his favorite character or whatnot. So I stick to ones that are more factoid! That way if you ever play an intense round of Disney trivia you can surpass everyone with your knowledge! LOL!

The chief creative officer of Pixar Animation Studios, John Lasseter, is also the chief creative officer of Walt Disney Animation Studios. The president of Pixar Animation Studios, Ed Catmull is also the president of Walt Disney Animation Studios. So basically the head guys at Pixar also help out with the other Disney animated movies!

When Ilene Woods died in 2010 it was from causes related to Alzheimer's disease. Based on comments she made regarding watching the movie one last time, it seems likely that she forgot she was the voice of Cinderella.

This was just sooo sad to hear! Alzheimer's is something that saddens me. Though my grandparents never had it, my grandpa did start forgetting things when he was dying from liver cancer.

  1. I heard that when Ilene got older, A Dream is a Wish would really soothe her which is soo sad.

    Also John Lasseter is my favorite person!
