In his long career at Disney, Marty worked on several projects and attractions such as the 1964-1965 New York World\u2019s Fair and Epcot as well as serving as Walt Disney\u2019s personal writer for publications, television shows, and film specials. Inevitably, when Marty retired in 2009, he came away with several stories from his time with the big mouse. His experiences and bits of wisdom were first published in his memoir Dream It! Do It! My Half-Century Creating Disney\u2019s Magic Kingdoms<\/em> and One Little Spark! Mickey\u2019s Ten Commandments and The Road to Imagineering<\/em>. Now, his third and final book, Travels with Figment<\/em>, continues his legacy of humor, wisdom and fond memories at Disney.\n\n\"\"\n\nOne of the key themes of this book (and of Disney as a whole) is the power of imagination and the motivation to follow your dreams. Marty clearly believed this and allowed creativity and wonder to guide the design process of Disney World and Epcot. When corporations doubted the marketability of Walt Disney\u2019s vision and projects, Marty refused to let their doubt weigh him and his team down. He also became well known for Mickey\u2019s Ten Commandments\u2014timeless rules for capturing your audience\u2019s attention and creating a sense of wonder and magic in them\u2014where knowing your audience, telling one story at a time, and maintaining a clean and professional appearance are ingredients to success.\n\nMarty completed an initial draft of Travels with Figment<\/em> but sadly passed away before he could properly finish it. One of the most touching chapters in the book is a series of personal tributes from several longtime friends and colleagues. You can sense the love, respect, and gratitude they have for Marty from reading their messages of appreciation. He was more than a boss at Disney: he mentored aspiring dreamers, maintained friendships that went beyond business and money, and shared his wisdom and experience with countless others. In a way, Marty Sklar truly embodied the values of Walt Disney\u2019s legacy: creativity, friendship, inspiration, and storytelling. Travels with Figment<\/em> captures a little of this magic.\n\nTravels with Figment<\/em> will be on sale November 5th, 2019.\n

\"In Green Eggs and Ham, extroverted and optimistic Sam I Am (voiced by Devine) rescues a rare Chickeraffe from the Glurfsburg Zoo, hides it in a briefcase, and attempts to make his way to Meepville in order to charter a cold air balloon to return the displaced animal to its island home. Meanwhile, introverted, plodding pessimist Guy Am I (Douglas) flops during his final big bid to become a world-famous inventor for the industrial Snerz Co. and resigns himself to a life of watching paint dry. A chance meeting in a diner leads to a pair of mixed-up briefcases and, before we know it, these two unlikely heroes are flung together on an expedition of self-discovery and culinary delight.\"<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inevitably, when Marty retired in 2009, he came away with several stories from his time with the big mouse. His experiences and bits of wisdom were first published in his memoir Dream It! Do It!

Animation World Network<\/a><\/em> provides a short synopsis of the series:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"In Green Eggs and Ham, extroverted and optimistic Sam I Am (voiced by Devine) rescues a rare Chickeraffe from the Glurfsburg Zoo, hides it in a briefcase, and attempts to make his way to Meepville in order to charter a cold air balloon to return the displaced animal to its island home. Meanwhile, introverted, plodding pessimist Guy Am I (Douglas) flops during his final big bid to become a world-famous inventor for the industrial Snerz Co. and resigns himself to a life of watching paint dry. A chance meeting in a diner leads to a pair of mixed-up briefcases and, before we know it, these two unlikely heroes are flung together on an expedition of self-discovery and culinary delight.\"<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hand-drawn 2D animated series will be available for streaming on November 8th, 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his long career at Disney, Marty worked on several projects and attractions such as the 1964-1965 New York World\u2019s Fair and Epcot as well as serving as Walt Disney\u2019s personal writer for publications, television shows, and film specials. Inevitably, when Marty retired in 2009, he came away with several stories from his time with the big mouse. His experiences and bits of wisdom were first published in his memoir Dream It! Do It! My Half-Century Creating Disney\u2019s Magic Kingdoms<\/em> and One Little Spark! Mickey\u2019s Ten Commandments and The Road to Imagineering<\/em>. Now, his third and final book, Travels with Figment<\/em>, continues his legacy of humor, wisdom and fond memories at Disney.\n\n\"\"\n\nOne of the key themes of this book (and of Disney as a whole) is the power of imagination and the motivation to follow your dreams. Marty clearly believed this and allowed creativity and wonder to guide the design process of Disney World and Epcot. When corporations doubted the marketability of Walt Disney\u2019s vision and projects, Marty refused to let their doubt weigh him and his team down. He also became well known for Mickey\u2019s Ten Commandments\u2014timeless rules for capturing your audience\u2019s attention and creating a sense of wonder and magic in them\u2014where knowing your audience, telling one story at a time, and maintaining a clean and professional appearance are ingredients to success.\n\nMarty completed an initial draft of Travels with Figment<\/em> but sadly passed away before he could properly finish it. One of the most touching chapters in the book is a series of personal tributes from several longtime friends and colleagues. You can sense the love, respect, and gratitude they have for Marty from reading their messages of appreciation. He was more than a boss at Disney: he mentored aspiring dreamers, maintained friendships that went beyond business and money, and shared his wisdom and experience with countless others. In a way, Marty Sklar truly embodied the values of Walt Disney\u2019s legacy: creativity, friendship, inspiration, and storytelling. Travels with Figment<\/em> captures a little of this magic.\n\nTravels with Figment<\/em> will be on sale November 5th, 2019.\n

Excited for Soul<\/em>?

We're going to take a look at three of the mythological creatures that appear in the films and trailers and seem to live around Arendelle\u2014trolls, Nokks, and giants\u2014as well as their fairy tale origins in real life. Although the world of Arendelle is based primarily on the land and culture of Norway, for this article, we will be looking at mythological creatures from a mix of Scandinavian and Norse mythologies.\n

Trolls<\/h2>\nIn traditional lore, trolls don't always have the greatest public image. According to Norwegian mythology<\/a>, trolls are depicted as large, stupid creatures who aren't very friendly. Despite being dangerous and dumb, trolls will often pose clever riddles or challenges for humans to solve. The best ways to defeat a troll is to scare them off with loud church bells, lightning, sunlight, or good old-fashion brainwork.\n\n\"frozen-trolls\"\n\nIn the world of Frozen<\/em>, though, trolls are friendly sources of wisdom and encouragement for our protagonists. The Art of Frozen<\/em> describes them as \"magical creatures whose comic appearance belies their ability to discover the truth hidden in each character's heart.\" In Frozen<\/em>, the leader of the trolls, Pabbie, warned the king of the dangers that could come with Elsa's powers; later on, Anna would be another recipient of the trolls' guidance in matters of love and family. It seems that Anna will need the trolls' help again in the sequel as danger encroaches on Elsa and the kingdom.\n

Nokk<\/h2>\nThe mythological creature Nokk can be found in several cultures, taking different names such as the B\u00e4ckah\u00e4sten (\"brook horse\") in Scandinavian lore, the Welsh Ceffyl D\u0175r (\"water horse\"), and the Scottish kelpie<\/a>. All versions have the ability to shapeshift and a natural connection to water. But don't try to ride any magical water horse that comes your way in real life! In traditional folklore, these dangerous creatures like to lure their victims onto a horseback ride and then drown and eat them.\n\n\"frozen-2-nokk\"\n\nFortunately, Disney offers a different version of the Nokk. On Disney's official site for Frozen 2<\/em><\/a>, a Nokk is explained as a \"mythical water spirit that takes the form of a horse\" and \"who uses the power of the ocean to guard the secrets of the forest.\" While we don't know much about the role or character of the Nokk that appears in the Frozen 2<\/em> trailers, Screen Rant<\/em> speculates<\/a> that the Nokk could serve as a spirit guide for Elsa. Hopefully, this spin of the mythological Nokk isn't looking to drown or eat anyone.\n

Giants<\/h2>\nGiants in Norse folklore<\/a> are called J\u00f6tunns, but to use the term \"giants\" can be a little misleading. The stature of J\u00f6tunns can vary, some being very tall, average human height, or rather small. J\u00f6tunns are said to be the oldest beings in existence, endowed with special powers like super strength and immortality and representing nature and chaos. Their depictions in the myths and legends are a mix of civil interactions and war.\n\n\"frozen-2-giants\"\n\nRock giants can't hold a candle to our favorite J\u00f6tunn, Loki, so it's understandable why Disney Animation created its own spin on the mythological creature. In the first film, Elsa created a grouchy ice giant called Marshmallow, but Frozen 2<\/em> promises a whole new type of giants. We have little information about the rock-like giants in Frozen 2<\/em>, but going by the trailers, though, it appears that any giants in Arendelle won't be friendly, at least towards our protagonists.\n\nFrozen<\/em> and its sequel follows the proud Disney tradition of taking inspiration from old fairy tales and creating something different. Yet, people sometimes forget where their favorite Disney films originated from. Learning about the original, sometimes grimmer, fairy tales of our favorite Disney movies and characters can make them more interesting and nuanced, allowing us to better appreciate how much work and imagination it takes to retell a story in a new way.\n

What is your favorite mythological creature in Disney films? Let us know!<\/h2>\n

    Netflix has released a trailer for season one of Green Eggs and Ham<\/em><\/strong>. Adapted from Dr. Seuss' beloved children's book into a 13-episode series, the show follows the road trip of two strangers, voiced by Adam Devine and Michael Douglas, who are brought together through a mix-up and forced on a journey to return a rare creature to its natural habitat. Check out the trailer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/YaqKPRxxaSk\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Animation World Network<\/a><\/em> provides a short synopsis of the series:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"In Green Eggs and Ham, extroverted and optimistic Sam I Am (voiced by Devine) rescues a rare Chickeraffe from the Glurfsburg Zoo, hides it in a briefcase, and attempts to make his way to Meepville in order to charter a cold air balloon to return the displaced animal to its island home. Meanwhile, introverted, plodding pessimist Guy Am I (Douglas) flops during his final big bid to become a world-famous inventor for the industrial Snerz Co. and resigns himself to a life of watching paint dry. A chance meeting in a diner leads to a pair of mixed-up briefcases and, before we know it, these two unlikely heroes are flung together on an expedition of self-discovery and culinary delight.\"<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The hand-drawn 2D animated series will be available for streaming on November 8th, 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We're going to take a look at three of the mythological creatures that appear in the films and trailers and seem to live around Arendelle\u2014trolls, Nokks, and giants\u2014as well as their fairy tale origins in real life. Although the world of Arendelle is based primarily on the land and culture of Norway, for this article, we will be looking at mythological creatures from a mix of Scandinavian and Norse mythologies.\n

    Trolls<\/h2>\nIn traditional lore, trolls don't always have the greatest public image. According to Norwegian mythology<\/a>, trolls are depicted as large, stupid creatures who aren't very friendly. Despite being dangerous and dumb, trolls will often pose clever riddles or challenges for humans to solve. The best ways to defeat a troll is to scare them off with loud church bells, lightning, sunlight, or good old-fashion brainwork.\n\n\"frozen-trolls\"\n\nIn the world of Frozen<\/em>, though, trolls are friendly sources of wisdom and encouragement for our protagonists. The Art of Frozen<\/em> describes them as \"magical creatures whose comic appearance belies their ability to discover the truth hidden in each character's heart.\" In Frozen<\/em>, the leader of the trolls, Pabbie, warned the king of the dangers that could come with Elsa's powers; later on, Anna would be another recipient of the trolls' guidance in matters of love and family. It seems that Anna will need the trolls' help again in the sequel as danger encroaches on Elsa and the kingdom.\n

    Nokk<\/h2>\nThe mythological creature Nokk can be found in several cultures, taking different names such as the B\u00e4ckah\u00e4sten (\"brook horse\") in Scandinavian lore, the Welsh Ceffyl D\u0175r (\"water horse\"), and the Scottish kelpie<\/a>. All versions have the ability to shapeshift and a natural connection to water. But don't try to ride any magical water horse that comes your way in real life! In traditional folklore, these dangerous creatures like to lure their victims onto a horseback ride and then drown and eat them.\n\n\"frozen-2-nokk\"\n\nFortunately, Disney offers a different version of the Nokk. On Disney's official site for Frozen 2<\/em><\/a>, a Nokk is explained as a \"mythical water spirit that takes the form of a horse\" and \"who uses the power of the ocean to guard the secrets of the forest.\" While we don't know much about the role or character of the Nokk that appears in the Frozen 2<\/em> trailers, Screen Rant<\/em> speculates<\/a> that the Nokk could serve as a spirit guide for Elsa. Hopefully, this spin of the mythological Nokk isn't looking to drown or eat anyone.\n

    Giants<\/h2>\nGiants in Norse folklore<\/a> are called J\u00f6tunns, but to use the term \"giants\" can be a little misleading. The stature of J\u00f6tunns can vary, some being very tall, average human height, or rather small. J\u00f6tunns are said to be the oldest beings in existence, endowed with special powers like super strength and immortality and representing nature and chaos. Their depictions in the myths and legends are a mix of civil interactions and war.\n\n\"frozen-2-giants\"\n\nRock giants can't hold a candle to our favorite J\u00f6tunn, Loki, so it's understandable why Disney Animation created its own spin on the mythological creature. In the first film, Elsa created a grouchy ice giant called Marshmallow, but Frozen 2<\/em> promises a whole new type of giants. We have little information about the rock-like giants in Frozen 2<\/em>, but going by the trailers, though, it appears that any giants in Arendelle won't be friendly, at least towards our protagonists.\n\nFrozen<\/em> and its sequel follows the proud Disney tradition of taking inspiration from old fairy tales and creating something different. Yet, people sometimes forget where their favorite Disney films originated from. Learning about the original, sometimes grimmer, fairy tales of our favorite Disney movies and characters can make them more interesting and nuanced, allowing us to better appreciate how much work and imagination it takes to retell a story in a new way.\n

    What is your favorite mythological creature in Disney films? Let us know!<\/h2>\n

      Netflix has released a trailer for season one of Green Eggs and Ham<\/em><\/strong>. Adapted from Dr. Seuss' beloved children's book into a 13-episode series, the show follows the road trip of two strangers, voiced by Adam Devine and Michael Douglas, who are brought together through a mix-up and forced on a journey to return a rare creature to its natural habitat. Check out the trailer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/YaqKPRxxaSk\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Animation World Network<\/a><\/em> provides a short synopsis of the series:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"In Green Eggs and Ham, extroverted and optimistic Sam I Am (voiced by Devine) rescues a rare Chickeraffe from the Glurfsburg Zoo, hides it in a briefcase, and attempts to make his way to Meepville in order to charter a cold air balloon to return the displaced animal to its island home. Meanwhile, introverted, plodding pessimist Guy Am I (Douglas) flops during his final big bid to become a world-famous inventor for the industrial Snerz Co. and resigns himself to a life of watching paint dry. A chance meeting in a diner leads to a pair of mixed-up briefcases and, before we know it, these two unlikely heroes are flung together on an expedition of self-discovery and culinary delight.\"<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The hand-drawn 2D animated series will be available for streaming on November 8th, 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We're going to take a look at three of the mythological creatures that appear in the films and trailers and seem to live around Arendelle\u2014trolls, Nokks, and giants\u2014as well as their fairy tale origins in real life. Although the world of Arendelle is based primarily on the land and culture of Norway, for this article, we will be looking at mythological creatures from a mix of Scandinavian and Norse mythologies.\n

      Trolls<\/h2>\nIn traditional lore, trolls don't always have the greatest public image. According to Norwegian mythology<\/a>, trolls are depicted as large, stupid creatures who aren't very friendly. Despite being dangerous and dumb, trolls will often pose clever riddles or challenges for humans to solve. The best ways to defeat a troll is to scare them off with loud church bells, lightning, sunlight, or good old-fashion brainwork.\n\n\"frozen-trolls\"\n\nIn the world of Frozen<\/em>, though, trolls are friendly sources of wisdom and encouragement for our protagonists. The Art of Frozen<\/em> describes them as \"magical creatures whose comic appearance belies their ability to discover the truth hidden in each character's heart.\" In Frozen<\/em>, the leader of the trolls, Pabbie, warned the king of the dangers that could come with Elsa's powers; later on, Anna would be another recipient of the trolls' guidance in matters of love and family. It seems that Anna will need the trolls' help again in the sequel as danger encroaches on Elsa and the kingdom.\n

      Nokk<\/h2>\nThe mythological creature Nokk can be found in several cultures, taking different names such as the B\u00e4ckah\u00e4sten (\"brook horse\") in Scandinavian lore, the Welsh Ceffyl D\u0175r (\"water horse\"), and the Scottish kelpie<\/a>. All versions have the ability to shapeshift and a natural connection to water. But don't try to ride any magical water horse that comes your way in real life! In traditional folklore, these dangerous creatures like to lure their victims onto a horseback ride and then drown and eat them.\n\n\"frozen-2-nokk\"\n\nFortunately, Disney offers a different version of the Nokk. On Disney's official site for Frozen 2<\/em><\/a>, a Nokk is explained as a \"mythical water spirit that takes the form of a horse\" and \"who uses the power of the ocean to guard the secrets of the forest.\" While we don't know much about the role or character of the Nokk that appears in the Frozen 2<\/em> trailers, Screen Rant<\/em> speculates<\/a> that the Nokk could serve as a spirit guide for Elsa. Hopefully, this spin of the mythological Nokk isn't looking to drown or eat anyone.\n

      Giants<\/h2>\nGiants in Norse folklore<\/a> are called J\u00f6tunns, but to use the term \"giants\" can be a little misleading. The stature of J\u00f6tunns can vary, some being very tall, average human height, or rather small. J\u00f6tunns are said to be the oldest beings in existence, endowed with special powers like super strength and immortality and representing nature and chaos. Their depictions in the myths and legends are a mix of civil interactions and war.\n\n\"frozen-2-giants\"\n\nRock giants can't hold a candle to our favorite J\u00f6tunn, Loki, so it's understandable why Disney Animation created its own spin on the mythological creature. In the first film, Elsa created a grouchy ice giant called Marshmallow, but Frozen 2<\/em> promises a whole new type of giants. We have little information about the rock-like giants in Frozen 2<\/em>, but going by the trailers, though, it appears that any giants in Arendelle won't be friendly, at least towards our protagonists.\n\nFrozen<\/em> and its sequel follows the proud Disney tradition of taking inspiration from old fairy tales and creating something different. Yet, people sometimes forget where their favorite Disney films originated from. Learning about the original, sometimes grimmer, fairy tales of our favorite Disney movies and characters can make them more interesting and nuanced, allowing us to better appreciate how much work and imagination it takes to retell a story in a new way.\n

        Netflix has released a trailer for season one of Green Eggs and Ham<\/em><\/strong>. Adapted from Dr. Seuss' beloved children's book into a 13-episode series, the show follows the road trip of two strangers, voiced by Adam Devine and Michael Douglas, who are brought together through a mix-up and forced on a journey to return a rare creature to its natural habitat. Check out the trailer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Animation World Network<\/a><\/em> provides a short synopsis of the series:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"In Green Eggs and Ham, extroverted and optimistic Sam I Am (voiced by Devine) rescues a rare Chickeraffe from the Glurfsburg Zoo, hides it in a briefcase, and attempts to make his way to Meepville in order to charter a cold air balloon to return the displaced animal to its island home. Meanwhile, introverted, plodding pessimist Guy Am I (Douglas) flops during his final big bid to become a world-famous inventor for the industrial Snerz Co. and resigns himself to a life of watching paint dry. A chance meeting in a diner leads to a pair of mixed-up briefcases and, before we know it, these two unlikely heroes are flung together on an expedition of self-discovery and culinary delight.\"<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The hand-drawn 2D animated series will be available for streaming on November 8th, 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his long career at Disney, Marty worked on several projects and attractions such as the 1964-1965 New York World\u2019s Fair and Epcot as well as serving as Walt Disney\u2019s personal writer for publications, television shows, and film specials. Inevitably, when Marty retired in 2009, he came away with several stories from his time with the big mouse. His experiences and bits of wisdom were first published in his memoir Dream It! Do It! My Half-Century Creating Disney\u2019s Magic Kingdoms<\/em> and One Little Spark! Mickey\u2019s Ten Commandments and The Road to Imagineering<\/em>. Now, his third and final book, Travels with Figment<\/em>, continues his legacy of humor, wisdom and fond memories at Disney.\n\n\"\"\n\nOne of the key themes of this book (and of Disney as a whole) is the power of imagination and the motivation to follow your dreams. Marty clearly believed this and allowed creativity and wonder to guide the design process of Disney World and Epcot. When corporations doubted the marketability of Walt Disney\u2019s vision and projects, Marty refused to let their doubt weigh him and his team down. He also became well known for Mickey\u2019s Ten Commandments\u2014timeless rules for capturing your audience\u2019s attention and creating a sense of wonder and magic in them\u2014where knowing your audience, telling one story at a time, and maintaining a clean and professional appearance are ingredients to success.\n\nMarty completed an initial draft of Travels with Figment<\/em> but sadly passed away before he could properly finish it. One of the most touching chapters in the book is a series of personal tributes from several longtime friends and colleagues. You can sense the love, respect, and gratitude they have for Marty from reading their messages of appreciation. He was more than a boss at Disney: he mentored aspiring dreamers, maintained friendships that went beyond business and money, and shared his wisdom and experience with countless others. In a way, Marty Sklar truly embodied the values of Walt Disney\u2019s legacy: creativity, friendship, inspiration, and storytelling. Travels with Figment<\/em> captures a little of this magic.\n\nTravels with Figment<\/em> will be on sale November 5th, 2019.\n
