When Three Men and a Baby opened on 25th November 1987, few could have predicted that a low-budget remake of a French comedy, shot in Toronto, starring two television actors, a comedy star and a baby girl, would become the highest-grossing film of the year in the US and a genuine turning point in Hollywood history. Yet that is precisely what it did.The film arrived at a specific cultural inflection point. More women were entering the workforce, the feminist movement was reshaping assumptions about domestic labour, and the recession of the early eighties had nudged more fathers into caregiving roles. Against that backdrop, watching Tom Selleck's broad-shouldered leading man coo helplessly over a baby carried real comic charge, and tapped into something the culture was quietly working through: what modern fatherhood might actually look like.But the film's off-screen legacy is arguably more significant than anything on it. Disney in 1983 had nearly gone bankrupt on the catastrophic failure of The Black Cauldron. The creation of Touchstone Pictures and its low-budget, high-concept adult comedies was the rescue plan. Three Men and a Baby was its greatest proof of concept: the studio's first ever $100 million domestic grosser, crowning Disney as the number one studio in Hollywood by the end of 1987. The revenue that film and its Touchstone stablemates generated bought the animation department enough time, talent, and resources to complete The Little Mermaid two years later, and triggered the Disney Renaissance.A film about three hapless bachelors and an abandoned baby, made cheaply and quietly in Canada, may be one of the most consequential comedies Hollywood ever produced.Support Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

Since its initial publication in 2006, Designing Type has been translated into German, Spanish, French, Ukrainian, Chinese, Japanese and Korean, and it has been ranked #14 on a list of "Top 50 Typography Books of the Last 50 Years" in the journal Visible Language. As a researcher, Cheng has investigated how scientists can collaborate with designers to aid public and interdisciplinary communication. She is co-author of the widely referenced "A Brief Guide to Designing Effective Figures for the Scientific Paper" and has published on the positive impact of visual design on scientific communication and the role of visual design critiques in research practice, in the Information Design Journal.

Ron Clements was the keynote speaker in 2025 for our Writers and Illustrators of the Future Gala. We connected up again at LTUE - Life, the Universe, and Everything Symposium - in Provo, Utah, where we recorded this interview. Ron has been an animation director, screenwriter, and producer for Disney for four decades. Along with co-producer John Muster, he is the creator of Aladdin, The Little Mermaid, Moana, Princess and the Frog, and one of my favorites, Pete's Dragon. In this interview, we discuss his journey to become one of the most successful animated movie producers of today and the process of creating animated movies. The story of how Robin Williams was brought on board for Aladdin was amazing!

Did you know Disney almost turned Spaceship Earth into a golden roller coaster? Join Morgan and Jake on Neverland Navigation Radio as they take a deep dive into "Project Gemini," the canceled early-2000s overhaul that would have radically changed the front half of Epcot.In this episode, we explore the wild $500 million plans to transform Future World into "Discovery Land". We're talking a massive "Time Racers" coaster gutting Spaceship Earth , a Little Mermaid ride in the Living Seas , a suspended rainforest coaster at The Land pavilion , and a brand-new Junior Autopia right in front of Test Track!Why did this massive project get scrapped right before its planned 2006 opening? We break down the turbulent Michael Eisner era , the financial disaster of Disney's California Adventure , and what few pieces of Project Gemini actually survived to become part of the Epcot we know today (like Soarin'!). Plus, we compare these abandoned plans to Epcot's most recent "World Discovery, Celebration, and Nature" transformation.Planning a Disney trip? Morgan is a free-to-you travel agent!

From singing her way into our hearts with her sister Chloe to becoming the Little Mermaid — and now leading a brand new rom com, ‘You, Me and Tuscany' which is in cinemas now— Halle Bailey is proving she's just getting started. In this chat with Josh, Halle opens up about learning to balance a thriving career with new motherhood, the strong women who shaped her, dealing with hair inequality and why she's a firm believer in speaking things into existence. She also reflects on what it meant to step into the role of Ariel — and how she rose above the wave of criticism that came with it. Of course we also talk about Halle's new movie, ‘You, Me and Tuscany' too, the white washing of rom-coms, why it shouldn't be a surprise to see two Black leads in a rom com and what made this project extra special: it was her first time ever working with a woman director. P.S If you are looking for even more Great Chat, Josh Smith's audiobook ‘Great Chat: Talk To Anyone, Make New Connections, Improve Your Relationships' is available on Spotify, free for premium subscribers.

Hour 2 brings the laughs, the gossip, and the exclusives as Gary With Da Tea breaks down explosive reports surrounding Cardi B and Offset — including leaked court documents, paternity questions, and whether reconciliation is even possible. The tea keeps pouring with Nia Long making headlines again, this time for a new mystery romance that has everyone talking. Things shift from messy to magical when Halle Bailey and super‑producer Will Packer join the show to talk about their new film You, Me & Tuscany, love, motherhood, and Hollywood growth, plus Halle addresses Little Mermaid sequel rumors. The hour rounds out with trademark RSMS comedy, wild storytelling, and over‑the‑top fun that reminds listeners why no morning show does entertainment quite like this one.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Brian is joined by his weekly guest Adam Holtz from Plugged In, Focus on the Family's media review ministry, for a Friday rundown of what's worth your time — and what to know before you watch. First, Adam shares exciting news about an Adventures in Odyssey animated film in development, Journey into the Impossible, an origin story for the beloved Mr. Whitaker that fans can actually help bring to life through crowdfunding. Then, a look at Plugged In's new technology section, built to help parents navigate the real, messy questions about screen time, video games, and kids and devices. Finally, two movies hitting screens this weekend: the anime romance Chao, a Little Mermaid-adjacent story that's a little harder to explain than it sounds, and You, Me, and Tuscany, a new rom-com starring Halle Bailey that Brian is very much already on board for.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Acofae Podcast Presents: 1984: "War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength." ACOFAE doubles down with fatherly feelings as they dive into 1984 in memory of Jessica's loss. Honoring family in her own special way, Jessica Marie explores 1984 for the first time along with Laura Marie who has read the book several times over the years. Winston lives in Air Strip One, formally London, and is unsettled. He has feelings of discontent and that cannot be tolerated. A world that is filled with double speak, Big Brother, and the perpetual state of War Winston finds himself seeking out love, freedom, and revolution in a world that is constantly watching you. A book that is filled with ideas that have become too real for 2026, 1984 shows us that we must know our past, our selves, and our minds because history is editable.

Who controls the present controls the past" TW / CW: death of a parent For additional TW/CW information for your future reads, head to this site for more: https://triggerwarningdatabase.com/ Spoilers: 1984 by George Orwell Mentions: V for Vendetta, Mockingjay, Chernobyl, Idiocracy, The Little Mermaid, The Hunger Games, Eagle Eye, Road Rules, The Real World, The Handmaid's Tale, The Matrix, Wuthering Heights *Thank you for listening to us!

After an unexpectedly long hiatus, we are back with a new episode in which the randomizer goes all the way back to 2023, to one of the seemingly hundreds of times Disney has taken one of their beloved awe-inspiring unforgettable animated masterpieces and reimagined it as a tolerated "meh"-inspiring live-action blockbuster that costs more than the GDP of most countries and completely leaves your memory before you even find your car in the parking lot. This time, they got around to remaking the film that changed animation forever, the era-defining fairy tale classic that revitalized the company and kicked off the Disney Renaissance. So naturally, for the remake they slathered everything in exceptionally ugly CGI, hired the "My Vag" lady to imitate 70s porn music (twice!) and got an oceanload of semi-deserved free publicity by angering the worst people on the internet when they dared to cast a (gasp!) b-b-b-b-b-b-BLACK woman as the titular fish-assed protagonist.

Gay men over 40 have been watching themselves disappear from screens, from conversations, and from their own community's narrative for decades. Rich Burns got fed up and built the antidote. The Humanitas Prize-winning creator and star of "The Disappointments" turned personal professional failure, romantic wreckage, and the specific ache of gay male invisibility into a series with over 4 million views and a global audience that stretches far beyond the LGBTQ+ community. Rich and Rick go deep on why older gay men are still being erased, what it actually costs to tell the truth on screen, and why humor is not a coping mechanism but a weapon. Key Takeaways: Why gay men over 40 are still invisible in media and what one man did about itHow Rich used personal humiliation and career setbacks as creative rocket fuelThe financial reality most gay men live with that Hollywood keeps airbrushing outWhat 4 million views taught Rich about the universal power of gay male experienceWhy humor is not softening the blow but telling the whole truth About Rich Rich Burns is the writer, star and creator of the Humanitas Prize-winning digital series The Disappointments. He also created and serves as the head writer for the Netflix original series Mermaid Magic which debuted August 2024 at #1 on Netflix Kids, with a second season coming. He developed and wrote on the Netflix reboot of the animated series Winx Club - The Magic Is Back. He served as head writer on two other recent Netflix chart toppers: DreamWorks' Spirit Riding Free and She-Ra and the Princesses of Power. Additionally, Rich was a staff writer at Walt Disney Feature Animation, scripting successful sequels to Brother Bear (Annie Award-nominated for Best Feature - Screenplay), The Fox and The Hound and The Little Mermaid, among others. His screenplay The Dunes of Overveen, based on a true story about a gay artist in Amsterdam who led a resistance raid against the Nazis during WWII, won an Outfest Award.

In this episode of MusicalTalk, Nick and Hannah take a candid and wide-ranging look at four very different theatrical experiences: Titanique, The Little Mermaid's ill-fated "Sea Witch", Into the Woods, and The Choir of Man. From the outrageous camp and unexpected charm of Titanique to the frustrating missteps of Sea Witch, the pair explore what separates a show that works from one that simply doesn't. Along the way, they dig into the crucial role of storytelling craft in musical theatre — why plot still matters, even in the most spectacle-driven productions, and how weak structure can sink even the strongest concepts. Nick and Hannah also revisit Into the Woods, comparing stage and screen to ask whether the film adaptation captures the brilliance of Stephen Sondheim's original — or loses something essential along the way. And not every show gets an easy ride: The Choir of Man comes under scrutiny as they unpack why, despite its popularity, it ultimately doesn't land for either of them.

Steph recaps day one of a two-day Disneyland trip with Angel and Lindsay for the “70 Years of Favorites” After Dark event.

The group dines at Carthay Circle, then attends the After Dark event for photo ops, dancing, snacks, and rides, but finds the event lackluster and leaves early.Thank you to all of my listeners, friends and supporters!

The story of Alexander von Zemlinsky's The Mermaid begins with a passionate love affair and ends in heartbreak of the most unabashedly big-R Romantic kind. In 1900, the young, fabulously talented, and famously beautiful Alma Schindler came to Zemlinsky's home to study composition. Wildly passionate feelings soon developed between them, and Alma wrote the following in her diary: "I would gladly be pregnant for him, gladly bear his children. His blood and mine, commingled: my beauty with his intellect. I would gladly serve him in his professional life, live for him and his kith and kin, breathe [for him], attend to his every happiness, serve him with a gentle hand. God give me the strength and the willpower to do so." The relationship lasted a little over a year, until one night when Schindler attended a party that happened to be frequented by a brilliant conductor and composer twenty years her senior: Gustav Mahler. The rest is history. Zemlinsky was devastated and poured his energies into a tone poem based on Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid. The source may seem surprising, but as we'll see later on, it proved to be the perfect vehicle for Zemlinsky to exorcise the tortured memories of this turbulent relationship. For a long time, however, the score was lost. It wasn't until the 1980s that the full work was reconstructed, and it has since become one of Zemlinsky's most frequently performed pieces. And it's not hard to see why. The Mermaid is a forty-minute tone poem that, from start to finish, overflows with fin-de-siècle romanticism, very much in the vein of Schoenberg's Verklärte Nacht (Transfigured Night). It is a work of irresistible beauty and passion, and it is being played more and more as Zemlinsky's name begins to take its rightful place in the standard canon of composers. Today on the show, I'll tell you a bit more about Zemlinsky in case you're not familiar with him, read more of the unbearably passionate letters and diary entries from both Zemlinsky and Alma Schindler, and, of course, walk you through the heartbreakingly beautiful music of The Mermaid, showing how Zemlinsky balances narrative and abstract form, and how he created this opulent, lush, and profoundly moving score.
