I really appreciate that. The last episode has done phenomenally well compared to all of the other episodes. Thanks for watching and listening!

My thoughts, exactly, this is outstanding

Hey, thanks so much! I'm so grateful for every subscriber (and comment and like). My aim is to entertain and inform so it's great to hear you enjoyed it.

@@disfarers Definitely. My vote is for Ward Kimball next. He had a big falling out with Walt, although they reconciled. But I'd be curious to learn more about him.

Gah! I just said I was done but then I saw this, yet another added comment, of yours. Ward Kimball was amazing! I really want to do an episode on him! Ward and Walt had several falling outs, in fact. The next of the Nine Old Men is going to be Ollie Johnston. I don't think he was given enough credit for his achievements in animation because he was't a big personality. Ward though, that guy was so great.

It's so great to hear you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting!

He was also a great animator AND imagineer!

I'm so glad you're enjoying the Walt's Nine episodes! I've had the next script for Ollie Johnston done for months now, but there are some other episodes that I'm trying to knock out first. If I can work out the timing on some things I can possibly even get it out this November. The inspiration is totally still in me. Putting out episodes on various animators and artists was the reason I started this channel. It just spread out into more fun things. I'm rambling on now so I'll just end this with saying thanks so much for commenting and watching!

He really was among an elite level of animators that the world has yet to surpass. I'm so glad you enjoyed the episode. Thanks so much for commenting and watching.

You're absolutely right. They really did Cinderella's Castle correctly. Right down to the color. And I totally agree with you too. I'm fine with the current color change as long as they go back to the original one day. I only wish there was more for guests to explore other than viewing the amazing mosaics. I mean, I've been inside for Cinderella's Royal Table and everything is very cool in there, but I wish there was just a bit more. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

I hope you enjoyed the episode. Thanks for watching!

So glad to hear you're finding it interesting! There's some interesting episodes coming up this year too.

I wasn't going by age or entry into Disney Studios or anything like that. I simply went by the way they're numbered on wikipedia. It spaces out the differing talents nicely so I decided to run with it.

@@disfarers I see. Then my favorite of the nine won't be coming for quite some time! 😂😂

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply back. Yeah, it's going to be some time before I reach Reitherman, however, I'm resigned to making at least one episode about each of them before moving on to other artists. As it is right now, I'm hoping to have all nine of them done before the end of 2026. Please keep in mind that they are each the hardest episodes to write. There's so much I have to sift and leave behind to keep the scripts tight. My inclination is to keep everything but my Ollie Johnston script alone would have hit an hour and ten minutes. And next on my list is Milt Kahl and there's more on him than on any of the other nine. I'm going to stop here because this has devolved into an excited vent. I appreciate your interest in Reitherman. All I can say is that I hope to make the best episode on him that youTube has yet to deliver.

I had heard something about Audley almost not playing the role of Maleficent but your Power Rangers comment totally cracked me up and derailed my train of thought! Thanks so much for watching, commenting and sharing that idea!!!
