Walter Elias “Walt” Disney (December 5, 1901 – December 15, 1966) was an American film producer, director, screenwriter, voice actor, animator, entrepreneur, entertainer, international icon, and philanthropist. Disney is famous for his influence in the field of entertainment during the 20th century. As the co-founder (with his brother Roy O. Disney) of Walt Disney Productions, Disney became one of the best-known motion picture producers in the world. The corporation he co-founded, now known as The Walt Disney Company, today has annual revenues of approximately U.S. $35 billion.
Disney is particularly noted for being a film producer and a popular showman, as well as an innovator in animation and theme park design. He and his staff created some of the world's most famous fictional characters including Mickey Mouse, a character for which Disney himself was the original voice. He has been awarded four honorary Academy Awards and has won twenty-two competitive Academy Awards out of fifty-nine nominations, including a record four in one year, giving him more awards and nominations than any other individual. He also won seven Emmy Awards. He is the namesake for Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resort theme parks in the United States, as well as the international resorts Tokyo Disney, Disneyland Paris, and Disneyland Hong Kong.
Disney died of lung cancer in Burbank, California, on December 15, 1966. The following year, construction began on Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. His brother Roy Disney inaugurated the Magic Kingdom on October 1, 1971.
The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) (commonly referred to as Disney) is the largest media and entertainment conglomerate in the world in terms of revenue. Founded on October 16, 1923, by brothers Walt Disney and Roy Disney as the Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, the company was reincorporated as Walt Disney Productions in 1929. Walt Disney Productions established itself as a leader in the American animation industry before diversifying into live-action film production, television, and travel. Taking on its current name in 1986, The Walt Disney Company expanded its existing operations and also started divisions focused upon theatre, radio, publishing, and online media. In addition, it has created new divisions of the company in order to market more mature content than it typically associates with its flagship family-oriented brands.
The company is best known for the products of its film studio, the Walt Disney Motion Pictures Group, today one of the largest and best-known studios in Hollywood. Disney also owns and operates the ABC broadcast television network; cable television networks such as Disney Channel, ESPN, and ABC Family; publishing, merchandising, and theatre divisions; and owns and licenses 11 theme parks around the world. On January 23, 2006, it was announced that Disney would purchase Pixar in an all-stock transaction worth $7.4 billion. The deal was finalized on May 5. On December 31, 2009, Disney Company acquired the Marvel Entertainment, Inc. for $4.24 billion. The company has been a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average since May 6, 1991. An early and well-known cartoon creation of the company, Mickey Mouse, is the official mascot of The Walt Disney Company.
i'm not leaving reviews for every single one of these comics but HOLY SHIT. THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST ISSUE SO FAR??? MERIDIAN BEING A LAND TRADITIONALLY RULED BY WOMEN?? UM WHAT IS THIS AWESOMENESS?
I cannot believe how much I have enjoyed being introduced to caleb in this issue because I HATED HIM IN THE TV ADAPTATION WITH A PASSION. but in this he like FULLY RESPECTS WOMEN?? so many emotions between him and cornelia too. :(
AND ALSO IM LOVING THE STRONG LOVE BETWEEN ELYON AND CORNELIA. oh my god if there's something I love it's when FRIENDS TELL EACH OTHER THEY LOVE EACH OTHER. Be still my heart.
I also love how cedric is a little bit more passive. like he's a little bit more scared, and phobos has a lot more power over him, which makes phobos look like the big bad and not the guy who is literally a henchman. I think I'm starting to realise things that didn't make sense about the series now.
sorry for the caps but im sold on these comics now, they're the best series I've ever read, hands down.
It was my first time reading this one and it was so interesting! Will being jealous, Elyon finally doubts Cedric, Cornelia and Caleb's meeting, and Phobos appears for the first time and has actual evil plans. Really cool.
omg so many things happened in this one!!! elyon, MY BAAAABYYYYYYYY, i lover her so much :( being brainwashed, taken away from her earth life, feeling now completely alone and thrown into a whole new world she didn't know about? no wonder she is so malleable and confused!!! not to mention HELLO SHE IS THE LIGITIMATE HEIR TO THE THRONE can we talk about how cool is it that meridian's throne can only be lead by women? absolutely iconic! she is dealing with so much but ohhhh, my baby elyon can do it!!!!! she has a strong heart!!! ANOTHER THING: ELYON AND CORNELIA'S FRIENDSHIP IS ALSO MY FAVORITE god, it's so profound and intense and strong and so filled with angst, i love it so much, i love powerful friendships!!! whenever we get flashbacks from their friendship it's sooooo nice and wholesome ALSO how elyon drew caleb for her just by cornelia's description of him? both iconic and so touching!!! elyon not only believed her but she also encouraged her, i'm so :(((( best girlies :((( speaking of, omg i'm realizing i never really liked cornelia but her relationships are my favorites? lmaoo make it make sense @ my brain but okay!!!! CALEB AND CORNELIA HAVE THE ANGSTIEST SHIP IN THIS SERIES, it hurts so bad but why is it my favorite djjsjjs i truly do not vibe with angsty dynamics/story lines but this one is so... powerful and poetic? almost like forbidden lovers or something GOD, they DREAMED of each other multiple times prior to meeting like ARE WE KIDDING!!!!! what is this connection!!!! the tear turned into a crystalized flower WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE!!!!! and how he is a rebel too and will help her bestie take back the kingdom HELLO AAAHHH, SO GOOD, SO GOOD!!! cornelia is so linked to meridian by just two ppl idk why that sends me but it does lmao the power of human connection, man! ALSO, ALSO, i had completely forgotten that vathek is a good boy :( i am so proud of his growth :(
Me ha parecido interesante porque se abren nuevos hilos y descubrimos más cosas del mundo de las W.i.t.c.h. Me encanta que Cornelia decida dar el paso para entender a Elyon. Sin embargo, me resulta forzado el encuentro amoroso con Caleb y el conflicto interno de Elyon me flojea. En comparación con anteriores capítulos, este no me ha transmitido la calidez que suelo notar. Un número algo frío y plano. El siguiente capítulo mejorará.
Nice, me gusta como avanzan las cosas, PERO VAN CON UN MOTOR EN EL CULO PARECE! TODO VA RE RÁPIDO! Tipo, es obvio que lo que se busca es dar la sensación de capítulos antoconclusivos, más o menos, que en cada capítulo inicie y acabe una aventura, que luego eso aporta a la trama general de la obra. Ok, eso lo entiendo, pero no siento que beneficie al resultado final en sí, solo me da la sensación de que todo va rápido y al tun tun, aún si tiene coherencia. Una pena, pero igual está buena.
W.I.T.C.H es una serie de fantasía que nos presenta a cinco amigas y a las aventuras y misterios que vivirán. Este libro trae los volúmenes 6 al 10 de la serie:
D'illusioni e di bugie Un giorno lo incontrerai Le rose nere di Meridian I quattro draghi Un ponte tra due mondi
Todos con cinco estrellas porque no se merece menos. Es una historia brillante, simple de leer y que te mantiene curiosa en la trama.
Me encontré una liga en la que tenían todos los volúmenes del comic w.i.t.c.h y por el momento ha sido difícil registrar mi avance, al igual que mi opinión. Considero que lo mejor será terminar toda la historia y a partir de eso hacer una reseña. Mientras tanto, continuaré con las aventuras de las guardianas de Heatherfield.
Nunca pude seguir el romance de Caleb y Cornelia y aunque al principio es ultra repentino, entiendo que puedan conocerse... en sueños. Cornelia es menos rancia al estar enamorada, digamos que es un punto a favor (?)
Non avevo mai letto questo volume da bambina, soltanto ora che sto rileggendo l'intera serie l'ho ripescato e mi rendo conto di essermi persa un volume importante. Sebbene nei numeri precedenti la trama si stava sviluppando lentamente, qui avviene una vera e propria svolta!
Ho volato in alto quando Cornelia ha trovato il suo diario dell'anno prima in cui Elyon le aveva scritto la dedica:"6 carina, 6 vivace, 6 l'amica che mi piace, 6 carina, 6 ok, resta sempre come 6."
One of my fav episodes so far, I loved Jackie's character design, also Cornelia and Caleb's story is just beautiful. I loved the fact that Meridian was always ruled by queens that was very cool.
Este era de mis números favoritos de la serie por qué empecé a conocer más a Cornelia y a saber que, no es tan fría como en números anteriores. Recuerdo que la relación de Cornelia y Caleb fue de mis favoritas ❤️ me resultaba tan romántico que, estaban destinados a encontrarse... Recuerdo que muchas veces intenté saber quién sería mi amor pensando muy fuerte en soñarlo antes de dormir. Nunca pude soñar con una persona en concreto que yo recuerde, alguien tan nítido como para describirlo y reconocerlo. Pero si llegue a soñar, que bailaba con un hombre (al que no podía verle la cara) y yo llevaba un vestido largo, muy bonito. Muchos años después, conocí a mi esposo. Nunca lo soñé, pero en la primera ocasión que hablamos de corazón a corazón, se sintió un cambio alrededor, cómo si algo se hubiese encendido, y el día que nos casamos, por fin tuve dejavu de ese sueño mientras bailabamos nuestro primer baile juntos como esposos; era él ,siempre fue él❤️ Aw y también esto me hizo recordar que siempre quise una flor de cristal!
Personally, I like Cornelia and Elyon - my two faves.
In this issue, Cornelia remembered her friendship with Elyon - how they used to be best friends. Elyon even drew a picture of Cornelia's dream guy with the wish that she'd soon meet her. Cornelia then went to Cedric's bookshop. She met Vathek and asked him to accompany her to Meridian. Cornelia happens to transform even without the heart of Kandrakar. She was almost captured by the rebels of Meridian but she was rescued by, surprisingly, the boy of her dreams! He looks exactly like the drawing that Elyon gave her. Meanwhile, Elyon explored Meridian by herself and it turned out she is the sister of Prince Phobos, making her the true ruler of Meridian (Meridian always have queens reigning).
This is one of my favorites so far! Even though I don't particularly like Cornelia - I've always preferred Irma, Will and Elyon -, her relationship with Caleb was always one of my favorite of all time, through all the fandoms and books and stories I've known since.
And reviving the moment when they've met in person for the first time, like it was the first time I was reading it, was to die for, even though their goodbye was heartbreaking!
