Escape From Vault Disney

This week, the randomizer picks a series of movie tie-in shorts produced in the 2010s and beyond by that once-unstoppable, still-occasionally-adequate pride of Emeryville, the bittersweet digital whimsy factory known to mere mortals as PIXAR! Join Tony Goldmark, Charlie Callahan, Haley Baker Callahan and Defunctland's Kevin Perjurer as they microwave some PIXAR POPCORN AND OTHER SHORTS! Shorts covered in this episode: - The Legend of Mor'du (2012) - Party Central (2014) - Riley's First Date? (2015) - Auntie Edna (2018) - Pixar Popcorn (2021) Check out my guests' stuff!

This week, the randomizer picks a not-terribly-good Saturday morning cartoon from 1981 in which your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man joins forces with the Star-Spangled Man with a plan, and in a stunning oversight, not once does the latter sit on a backwards chair and lecture the former for getting detention. Join Tony Goldmark, Tim Crist, David Ganssle and Garrett Snook as they take pictures of SPIDER-MAN (1981 series), episode eighteen, "The Capture of Captain America!" Check out my guests' stuff!

DISCLAIMER: This episode was recorded and released prior to the arrest of one of its guests, Kyle Carrozza. We at Escape From Vault Disney strongly condemn Mr. Carrozza's actions and offer our deepest sympathies to his victims, and we will not be inviting him on this podcast again in the future. That said, rather than attempt to rewrite history, we have decided to leave this episode online and intact as a time capsule of when it was made. "Uh-oh." "Don't tell me. We're bypassing the randomizer this week so Luke Ski can do his Guest's Choice episode on a beloved Disney animation cult classic from the year 2000." "Yup." "Second-longest episode ever?" "Most likely." (Dramatic pause) "Bring it on." Join Tony Goldmark, Kyle A. Carrozza, Luke Ski and Lindsay Smith as they throw off THE EMPEROR'S NEW GROOVE!

In this extra-long bonus minisode, we present a segment cut from last week's episode in which Tony Goldmark, Luke Ski, Ryan Hipp and our Surprise Special Guest list some of our favorite Muppet specials and series which could and should be available on Disney+, but for some reason aren't!

It's the fifth and final week of MUPPET MONTH on Escape From Vault Disney! And to wrap the month up, the randomizer chooses another episode of the most sensational, inspirational, celebrational, Muppetational iconic televised classic itself, complete with a very special guest indeed - the only cinematic Superman to ever play the Man of Steel in a GOOD movie! (And also still a couple bad ones.) Join Tony Goldmark, Ryan Hipp, Luke Ski and a Surprise Special Guest as they once again meet the Muppets on THE MUPPET SHOW, season four, episode eighteen, "Christopher Reeve!"

It's the fourth and penultimate week of MUPPET MONTH on Escape From Vault Disney! And this week, as I'm joined by the hosts of the Channel KRT podcast, the randomizer goes all the way back to 2014 to pick the second-best Muppet sequel in which the Muppets travel to Europe and end up thwarting a jewel heist. It's weird that the Muppets have two of those, isn't it. Join Tony Goldmark, Tyler Green, Randee Martin and Kit Quinn as they turn in the MUPPETS MOST WANTED! Check out my guests' stuff!

And this week, the randomizer chooses an episode of the most sensational, inspirational, celebrational, Muppetational iconic televised classic itself, complete with a multi-talented very special guest who could dance ballet, sing Billy Joel songs, hit on a talking pig AND murder the cop in the library with the lead pipe!

It's week two of MUPPET MONTH on Escape From Vault Disney! And this week, the randomizer continues to stubbornly refuse to cover an actual movie or TV show with "Muppet" in the title, instead choosing an episode of the Muppet-adjacent early-90s ABC satirical primetime sitcom from Jim Henson Productions about a prehistoric family of creepy lizard-people.

It's MUPPET MONTH on Escape From Vault Disney! And for our very first week of Muppet Month, the randomizer formally apologizes for making us watch a cancer movie last week by allowing us to do something we've never done before on this show - interview someone who ACTUALLY WORKED ON THE THING WE'RE COVERING! Namely, one of this show's many very talented puppeteers, Grant Baciocco!

Y'know, doing this podcast can be a precarious endeavor sometimes. Some weeks, we're laughing our asses off at The Cat from Outer Space or Richie Rich's Christmas Wish...and then there's weeks like this one, when the almighty randomizer sees fit to say "Hey look, a Disney+ original movie from last year about a real-life teenager who died of cancer! Make fun of it, pathetic humans!" And we are forced to obey. Join Tony Goldmark, Kyle A.

The next full episode won't be ready until next week, but in the meantime, here's a BONUS MINISODE in which I announce that MUPPET MONTH won the recent Twitter poll, and explain what does and doesn't count as "Muppet content" for the purposes of it. Plus there's an outtake from the Country Bears episode!

Have you ever wondered what it would look like if a nature documentary looked and felt more like SportsCenter or election night coverage? No, of course you haven't, that's a ridiculous thing to wonder. Nevertheless, this week the randomizer, in its infinite wisdom, goes all the way back to 2017 to select an experimental National Geographic special that decided to be that very abomination for reasons unknown. Join Tony Goldmark, Zach Hurst, Cassie Shima and Luke Ski as they get tickets to see EARTH LIVE!

Exactly ten years ago today, on February 3rd, 2011, I released the very first episode of my web series Some Jerk With A Camera, a review of the 2002 Disney classic The Country Bears filmed on location at Disneyland. And now, to celebrate a whole damn decade of me doing this dumb crap, my cohorts and I are setting the randomizer aside for this week so we can revisit and reevaluate what many have called the Citizen Kane of movies about ursine musicians. Join Tony Goldmark, Charlie Callahan, Morgan Funder and David Ganssle as they get mauled by THE COUNTRY BEARS! Watch my original 2011 Country Bears video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpFefqROzDQ March 2021 will be a THEME MONTH on Escape From Vault Disney, and we're determining which theme with March Madness-style Twitter polls.

Let me ask you this: did The Godfather have a cat from outer space in it? Did Lawrence of Arabia have a cat from outer space in it? Did Citizen Kane have a cat from outer space in it? No, no and no, they did not. But you'd better believe the 1978 Disney classic The Cat from Outer Space has a cat from outer space in it, and this week we're bypassing the randomizer for our first-ever Guest's Choice episode, in which our good friend Morgan Funder makes us watch that majestic cinematic epic of the "extraterrestrial feline" subgenre.

The next full episode won't be ready until next week, but in the meantime, here's a BONUS MINISODE devoted entirely to my semiregular "State of the Parks" theme park news/editorial segment. It's been a while since I've actually had time to do such a segment for the show proper, so here's a rundown of theme park news stories I missed over the past few months, namely: - Disneyland canceling the annual pass system - Disneyland's Toy Story parking lot becoming a vaccination super-site - Snow White's Scary Adventures being refurbished into Snow White's Enchanted Wish - Walt Disney World shutting down Mickey's Magical Express - Taika Waititi directing film segments for "Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind" - Imagineers Joe Rohde and Kevin Rafferty retiring

Happy New Year everybody! For Escape From Vault Disney's first episode of 2021, the randomizer goes all the way back to 1993 to pick Disney's live-action adaptation of Mark Twain's immortal 1884 literary classic, a film that dares to posit that the REAL victims of slavery were the white people who felt really bad about it sometimes. Ah, the 90s. Join Tony Goldmark, Morgan Funder, Madeline Maye and Chris Nebergall as they impatiently skim through THE ADVENTURES OF HUCK FINN! Check out my guests' stuff!

Merry belated Christmas everyone! For our third and final Christmas episode of the year, the randomizer goes back to 1998 to pick a Saban-produced direct-to-video sequel that answers the supremely important question, "What would it look like if It's A Wonderful Life had a dinosaur museum heist, a grunge band dressed as a hair metal band, a flying child dictator AND a fire-breathing robot maid?" Join Tony Goldmark, David Ganssle, Randee Martin and the ever-mysterious Carl Featherbottom as they grant RICHIE RICH'S CHRISTMAS WISH!

For our second Christmas episode of 2020, the randomizer picked a 1999 direct-to-video compilation animated feature in which everyone's favorite classic Disney characters starred in holiday stories about everything Christmas is all about: time loops, atheism and the horrors of late-stage capitalism! Join Tony Goldmark, Sydney Agnew and "How Did This Not Get Made" hosts Daniel Kawka and David Spencer as we watch MICKEY'S ONCE UPON A CHRISTMAS!

Happy Holidays, everyone! This week, for this podcast's first Christmas episode of 2020, the randomizer picks a 2011 Disney Channel original movie, based on a Disney Channel sitcom, featuring everything Christmas is all about: hitchhiking, angry gamers, confusing business names, crappy old cars, UFO conspiracy theorists, luggage theft, kidnapping LARPers and paintball! Join Tony Goldmark, Emily Clark, Kyle Kallgren and Variety's Deputy Awards and Features Editor Jenelle Riley (!!!) as they wish everyone GOOD LUCK CHARLIE, IT'S CHRISTMAS!

This week Tony joins the hosts of this weekend's "Thanks For The Magic" charity livestream as the randomizer, in its infinite wisdom, forces them to watch a 2011 NatGeo documentary special that for some weird reason saw fit to ask the bold question, "What if the water had no water in it?" Join Tony Goldmark, Kevin Anderson, Charlie Callahan and Haley Baker Callahan as they inexplicably DRAIN THE GREAT LAKES! In the time since we recorded and released this podcast, Drain the Great Lakes has been removed from Disney+, but you can still watch it HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdejfV_kYY8

DISCLAIMER: This episode was recorded and released prior to the arrest of one of its guests, Kyle Carrozza. We at Escape From Vault Disney strongly condemn Mr. Carrozza's actions and offer our deepest sympathies to his victims, and we will not be inviting him on this podcast again in the future. That said, rather than attempt to rewrite history, we have decided to leave this episode online and intact as a time capsule of when it was made. This week the randomizer flies our magic bed all the way back to 1971, when Disney made a spiritual successor to Mary Poppins in which Jessica Fletcher and Mr. Banks encounter talking cartoon animals AND literal Nazis in the same movie, and somehow the Nazis are more polite. Join Tony Goldmark, Kyle A. Carrozza, Luke Ski and Lindsay Smith as they stock up on BEDKNOBS AND BROOMSTICKS!

After taking a couple weeks off, Escape From Vault Disney returns to join forces with the Channel KRT podcast, and the randomizer mercifully picks one of the funniest and best movies on Disney+, the feature directorial debut of acclaimed Oscar-nominated auteur Jim Henson, the eternal classic film that gifted the cinema landscape with those immortal words to live by, "That's a frog. Bears wear hats." Join Tony Goldmark, Tyler Green, Randee Martin and Kitty Quinn as they solve THE GREAT MUPPET CAPER!

Just in the nick of time for Halloween, the randomizer picks another Halloween title, this one a well-remembered Disney Channel Original Movie from 1998! You've heard of Halloween the holiday, Halloween the movie and Halloween the Horror Nights, but did you know Halloweentown can be a TOWN? And hey, Kalabar (or possibly Calabar) is actually IN this one! Join Tony Goldmark, Charlie Callahan, Haley Baker Callahan and Gaby Tyrrell as they hitchhike all the way to HALLOWEENTOWN!

For our first-ever seasonally-appropriate Halloween episode, the randomizer has chosen an episode of a Disney Channel sitcom about a sketch show wherein the sketch-show-within-a-sitcom rebelled and took over its host program, and gave us the once-in-a-lifetime pairing of unquestionably the two greatest musical geniuses of our time, Demi Lovato and Shaquille O'Neal. Join Tony Goldmark, Kevin Anderson, Ryan Hipp and Randee Martin as they forecast SONNY WITH A CHANCE, season two, episode eighteen, "A So Random Halloween Special!"

It's Escape From Vault Disney's 27th episode spectacular, in which Tony joins the hosts of The Weird Al-Phabet podcast to celebrate the work of the one-and-only "Weird Al" Yankovic just in time for his birthday! Specifically, we cover another episode of the underrated animated series in which Mr. Yankovic himself voices the world's unluckiest kid. Join Tony Goldmark, Andrew Frola, Michael Hunter, Daniel Kawka and David Spencer as they they break MILO MURPHY'S LAW, season one, episode eight, "The Substitute/Time Out!"

Romcoms! What are they? Where do they come from? What do they want from us? On this week's episode, the randomizer goes back to 1995 to pick a semi-remembered example of the much-maligned subgenre, a Sandra Bullock vehicle that really puts the "coma" in "comady!" Join Tony Goldmark, Tim Crist, Kitty Quinn and Luke Ski as they remember all the fun stuff you missed out on WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING!

Y'know, hiring the editor of Apocalypse Now to write and direct an extremely depressing grimdark mid-80s sequel to The Wizard Of Oz loaded with tons of horrifying nightmare-inducing imagery and almost zero connection to the 1939 MGM musical everyone loves might SEEM like a terrible idea... (long pause) so anyway, join Tony Goldmark, Sydney Agnew, Kevin Anderson and Morgan Funder as the almighty randomizer forces them to begrudgingly RETURN TO OZ!

In the spine-tingling conclusion of our very first Patreon Request Month, we cover Kenneth Hodgins and Patrick Thatcher's request for one of Disney's most notorious cult classics, a whiz-bang retro action spectacle from 1991 that truly had everything...except an audience. Join Tony Goldmark, Alessandra Dreyer, David Ganssle and Ryan Hipp as they go soarin' through the stratosphere with THE ROCKETEER!

Patreon Request Month just keeps chuggin' along with Justin Wilton's request for the 2003 remake of the unforgettable classic story that dared to ask the bold cinematic question, "What if person was other person?" Join Tony Goldmark, Charlie Callahan, Haley Baker Callahan and Kyle Kallgren as they wake up on FREAKY FRIDAY (2003)!

Patreon Request Month marches on with Matthew Bogatz's request for this weird, misbegotten relic from Disney's very brief and extremely regrettable period when they unaccountably tried to be Dreamworks. Ever wanted to see a film with aliens, baseball, talking farm animals, 70s pop songs, ugly-ass half-rendered animation, lots and lots of pee jokes AND the guy from Scrubs in it? Well look no further, ya damn weirdo! Join Tony Goldmark, Erika Haynes, Luke Ski and David Spencer as they fry up some CHICKEN LITTLE!

Patreon Request Month continues with Alex the Azurath's request for a randomly-selected episode of the less-successful animated series from the creators of Phineas & Ferb, Milo Murphy's Law, starring none other than the one-and-only "Weird Al" Yankovic in the titular role! And the random selection in question is a very-bizarre-even-for-this-show two-part episode about time travel and mutant pistachios! Join Tony Goldmark, Jeff Scot Carey, Emily Clark and Zach Hurst as they study MILO MURPHY'S LAW, season one, episodes twelve and thirteen, "Missing Milo" parts 1 & 2!

DISCLAIMER: This episode was recorded and released prior to the arrest of one of its guests, Kyle Carrozza. We at Escape From Vault Disney strongly condemn Mr. Carrozza's actions and offer our deepest sympathies to his victims, and we will not be inviting him on this podcast again in the future. That said, rather than attempt to rewrite history, we have decided to leave this episode online and intact as a time capsule of when it was made. As Escape From Vault Disney triumphantly RETURNS from a five-month hiatus, we continue Patreon Request Month with Rob Bergman's request for a particularly weird episode of the weirder-than-you-remember 90s Little Mermaid TV series. Join Tony Goldmark, Kyle A. Carrozza, Morgan Funder and Kitty Quinn for the sheer deranged majesty of Mary Seashelley's "Ariel & Costello Meet Frankenstein," aka THE LITTLE MERMAID (SERIES), season three, episode three, "Island of Fear!" #CrabExperiments

In our last episode before we take a coronavirus-related hiatus, and the only episode of "Patreon Request Month" we managed to record before everything went on lockdown, the randomizer goes all the way back to 1940 to pick Lizzy Gravelle's request for Walt Disney's second full-length animated classic, a movie simultaneously far better and way weirder than you remember. Join Tony Goldmark, Chandler Desrochers, David Ganssle and Nicholas Bogroff Ganssle as they reflect on the mastery and insanity of PINOCCHIO!

Did you know that in 1991, Disney distributed a Norwegian pirate movie? We sure didn't, until the randomizer picked it for this week's episode and gave us all an excuse to attempt borderline-offensive exaggerated Scandinavian accents! Join Tony Goldmark, Kevin Anderson, Zach Hurst and Chris Nebergall as they get SHIPWRECKED!

Summer camp! What is it? Where did it come from? What does it want from us? This week the randomizer picks the final episode of a 2018 Disney Channel reality TV series designed to answer none of these probing questions. Join Tony Goldmark, Kevin Anderson, Zach Hurst and Chris Nebergall as they drink a tall frosty glass of BUG JUICE: MY ADVENTURES AT CAMP, episode sixteen, "Best Summer Ever!"

In 1996, the acclaimed Oscar-winning auteur behind The Godfather and Apocalypse Now saw fit to direct a PG-13 Robin Williams comedy about a ten-year-old trapped in the body of a forty-year-old. What could possibly go wrong? Join Tony Goldmark, Kevin Anderson, Zach Hurst and Chris Nebergall as they endure the existential nightmare that is JACK!

Extree! Extree! Hear all about it! Randomizer chooses 2017 simulcast of 2012 Broadway musical based on 1992 cult classic musical! Join Tony Goldmark, Alessandra Dreyer, David Ganssle and Nicholas Bogroff Ganssle as they take in the theatrical spectacle that is NEWSIES: THE BROADWAY MUSICAL! Podcast, mistah? Only zero cents!

It was bound to happen eventually: the randomizer, in its infinite wisdom, has chosen a NatGeo documentary, and a particularly slow and boring one at that. But boy oh boy, it sure does have a lotta pretty slow-motion footage of animals to fall asleep to. Join Tony Goldmark, Alessandra Dreyer, David Ganssle and Nicholas Bogroff Ganssle as we apprehensively venture INTO THE OKAVANGO!

Remember when cartoons were drawn by human beings? Well, two of those human beings were the subjects of the 1995 documentary the randomizer has chosen for us this week! Join Tony Goldmark, Alessandra Dreyer, David Ganssle and VERY special guest JENNY NICHOLSON(!!!) as we indulgently listen to FRANK AND OLLIE!

What happens when a Nicktoon becomes a Disneytoon? Apparently they run out of ideas and say "Screw it, it's a superhero show now." This week the randomizer picks a 1999 episode of the show that inexplicably had "Brand Spankin' New" in its title at one point! Join Tony Goldmark, Charlie Callahan, Haley Baker Callahan and Morgan Funder as they say hello to DOUG, season three (technically seven), episode twenty-one, "Quailman Vs. The Triad of Terror!"

I am Groot? I am Groot. I am Groot, I am Groot, I am Groot. I am Groot. Tony Goldmark, Charlie Callahan, Haley Baker Callahan and Morgan Funder I am Groot ROCKET & GROOT SHORTS!

What if Lizzy McGuire was also Tyler Durden AND Killer Frost? This week the randomizer goes back to 2006 (a magical long-forgotten era when some people apparently DIDN'T always want the whole world to read every last thought that fell out of their skulls) and chooses another Disney Channel original movie, this one about a high school girl whose diary goes viral (diaral?) and becomes semi-sentient. Join Tony Goldmark, Charlie Callahan, Haley Baker Callahan and Morgan Funder as they bravely READ IT AND WEEP!

The movie's called "Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge" and Kalabar's not in it. And, it all goes downhill from there. This week Tony teams up with The "Weird Al" Phabet podcast as the randomizer sadistically and unseasonally chooses the inexplicable 2001 sequel to a fondly-remembered Disney Channel original movie. Join Tony Goldmark, Andrew Frola, Michael Hunter, Daniel Kawka and David Spencer as they journey to HALLOWEENTOWN II: KALABAR'S REVENGE!

This week the randomizer goes back to 2005 to pick one of the 67 Winnie the Pooh products released that February. Join Tony Goldmark, Morgan Funder, David Ganssle and Luke Ski as they check out POOH'S HEFFALUMP MOVIE!
