No, but I've heard tell of it many a day. it's horribleness is legendary. Is it really as bad as Mary Poppins makes it out to be?

@ Fierce, y’know Mary Poppins? ‘A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down’
And yes, many a day have I suffered at the liquid that is Cod Liver Oil.
-gotta go. My mother is sending me to the store to buy whole wheat pasta-

XD Whole wheat, that's heaven for me compared to the horrors I've endured. (Raw salmon basted in a parsley-and-potato blend, anyone?) And I remain sadly ignorant of nearly every Disney movie on the planet. (Er... That's what Mary Poppins is, right?)

~yikes~ Now that's one thing my parents aren't into, thank God. (raw meat) Besides the fact that it's better for your body to eat the meat cooked, raw meat kinda makes my skin crawl.
Yes, Mary Poppins is a disney movie. 15 years ago if you said that I would have felt sorry for you, but since I know the 'producer world' quite well, including the type of people that run Disney nowa days...that's probably a good thing you don't watch any. -You should sit at a meeting w/ these people, the way they talk about children, would just make you mad. "We can get more product by putting morals out them when they're young. But by the time we have 12- product, we can get more more money and revenue by shifting gears and promoting everything other than that. We of course will however put a surface moral over it all so that the Productees (parents) will be pleased on the occasional walk by of the TV when the product is watching. And we just signed a $1,000,000 contract with _________ so our shows must involve _______'s merchandise..."
To them, people aren't people unless you can wave money around. OR unless you are buying something from them, which afterwards you go back to the rank of 'product'. I don't know how I got off on this subject, but I'll leave everything I said anyway.

You've really met some of the Disney producers? And had to sit in on a meeting with them? Poor you.

No, LUCKY me. Only the high ups, friends of high-ups, or soon to be high ups are ever allowed in those type of meetings. And I fit into the last two categories. It's also quite interesting/good to know how these people think and interact. -sit in on 2-5 meetings and you'll at least walk away with knowing how to manage your money. (no kidding)-

XD And how, where, and why not to, I'll imagine. I think the only Disney movies I ever saw were some of the old-ish ones, Fantasia and... Don't remember the other one. I'd say you have mixed blessings.... 'High-ups' and, what, 'Sit-through-reeeeeeeaaaally-long-meetings'. (All the meetings I've been to were long. And kinda gross.... My mom's a nurse. In cardiology, I had the most audacious pleasure to see numerous videos of open-heart triple bypasses.... Regular bypasses..... Some disease or something that makes your heart turn the color of an overripe lemon.... All that good stuff. As a consequence, I really don't mind a bit of blood. -_-)

WoW. *moment of silence* (-_-) I do feel sorry for you. I don't think I could sit through a meeting like that. The meeting -involving Disney- that I sit in are not sole Disney meeting, it would take some time to explain, but there are also lots of representatives from other major entertainment companies.

Your mom's a nurse, Fierce? As for long and boring meetings, I've never really had to sit through any. Do you usually take a book, or does you mom insist that you pay attention to the vid so as not to be rude?

XD Popcorn? You would avoid it after watching some of this stuff, trust me. (I won't even mention it.)

POPCORN! POPCORN! *has to walk away from computer*................*comes back* please tell me ya' were joking Fwiff.
*trying to bring page back on subject* What if there was a special, official Redwall Path badge that was only given to those with a certain ranking? If it was cool enough, it would at least get newbies to do more posting.

Hmmm... I think it would have to be locked or something though.... Otherwise anyone could use it, regardless of rank.
