The Neverending Disney Movies List

By Fabian Toulouse

What could you buy for $10 a month in 1923? That was the amount paid for the rental of the tiny office in Los Angeles where Walt Disney and his brother, Roy started what is known today as the Walt Disney Company. This company took flight with animated films which were called ALICE COMEDIES. After only four months, a move was made to a larger studio where the name of the company became Disney Brothers Studio.

Only a year later, a lot was bought in the Silver Lake district and a new studio was underway. In 1928 our favorite cartoon mouse was born. Following Mickey were Pluto, Goofy, Donald Duck, and the many more Disney favorites everyone has come to love. With the Disney characters becoming more popular every day, a place to build the many props that were required for the Disney family became a necessity. The Back Lot became that place.

Among the construction in the Back Lot were those used for plumbing, electrical, plaster shops and sheds, machines and countless props. A lot of the plaster figures that are used in Disneyland and Walt Disney World were made here. With the need for entire buildings rather than just the bits and pieces of earlier times, the filming industry began to build whole sets in response to the on location filming that was becoming quite popular. Over the last 30 plus years the back lot has housed the sets for many movies including "Darby O'Gill and the Little People," "The Love Bug," "The Apple Dumpling Gang," and "Those Calloways" among many others.

Disney films have long been a favorite of film-goers for decades. The great thing now you can share all your favorite Disney movies and ones that you have not seen yet by going to the Disney DVD Gift Express. Do you have someone in mind that you would like to share your love of Disney with? With the movies a month gift pack you can choose from 3, 6, 9, or 12 months.
