3 Happy Chappies

The Force is strong with this installment of 3 Happy Chappies as we head back to a galaxy far, far away. Beware of spoilers, ‘cause we’re basking in Star Wars lore, callbacks, and fan theories. We’ll then go from Jedi worldbuilding to a much smaller world as we head on the ferryboat through It’s A Small World. And finally, it’s our most adorable bracket yet as we determine the top dog, literally. Who makes the cut of greatest Disney dog? Do we go with a classic or a newb? Will lovers be pitted against each other? Find out this week on 3 Happy Chappies!

This holiday season, we are THANKfully bringing you a new episode of 3 Happy Chappies! We’ll look at animated representations of both Native Americans and general hotness with Disney’s Pocahontas. We’ll then move from the New World to the World Showcase as we scope the libations at Epcot and share memories of Disneyfied inebriation. We’ll close it out with some classic Disney covers, from Peabo to Usher and everything in between. Be thankful that another fortnight has passed and the Chappies are back!

After a long hiatus, the Chappies are back with a bang! We’ll head to Sherwood Forest as we rob from the rich, feed the poor, and get all anthropomorphic with Disney’s Robin Hood. Then from Nottingham to Lake Buena Vista, we’ll get cozy discussing our favorite Walt Disney World resorts. And finally, we’ll make multiple-fortnight wait worth it as we discuss a favorite topic amongst most Disneyphiles: VILLAINS. There is much to discuss in this realm, including evilness, entertainment value, signature song, and underratedness. It’s like no time has passed at all! Oo de lally!

A lot happens in a fortnight, and things are getting dark on our newest episode of 3 Happy Chappies! We'll start by diving into the many horrors of the Disney's second full length animated classic, Pinocchio. How was this ever for children? We'll then continue with things not suitable for children as we head to the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, one of Disney Parks' most impressive attractions. And finally, the Chappies duke it out as we play our first edition of Convince Me, asking our fellow Chappies to reconsider Pixar films we're not so into. Looking for a good way to nerd out, Disney-style? Always let your Chappies be your guide!

What team? CHAPPIES! After fortnights of anticipation, the 3 Happy Chappies finally get to Bop to the Top of all other Disney Channel Original Movies and take a deep dive into the greatest of all DCOMs, High School Musical. The excitement continues as we turn the conversation to the recent D23 expo announcements about park enhancements coming to Florida and California, also known as the worst kept secrets of all time. And finally, we’ll break up the excitement and bring the mood down with our compilation of the saddest Disney moments. Getcha Head in the Game this week, on 3 Happy Chappies!

The Chappies are reunited and it feels so...tense? You’ll wanna be where the Chappies are as we journey Unda Da Sea and into the Disney Renaissance to discuss The Little Mermaid. We’ll ponder the value of secondary characters, the odd sexualization of King Triton, and the root of the heated debate between Greg and Andrea. We’ll then cool down and talk about something we can all get behind: DINOSAURS! We’ll chat about one of our favorite attractions at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Dinosaur/Countdown to Extinction. And finally, we’ll wax nostalgic on some of our favorite Disney parks merchandise. Join us in mysterious fathoms below this week on 3 Happy Chappies!

We’ll then take the sophistication down a notch as we board the Pirates of the Caribbean and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of updating a classic attraction. And finally, we’ll examine Disney Shorts of the past and present, from Goofy How-To films all the way to Lava. Yo ho, yo ho, a Chappies life for me!

Summer is approaching, which means summer camp is around the corner, which means it’s time to talk The Parent Trap! We’ll then pick up speed with a ride on Epcot’s Test Track, with particular attention to thrill of driving a whopping 60 mph. And finally, the bracket is back!

It’s a double sized dose of Huntoon siblings as Andrea has abandoned the Chappies for a month long trip abroad. Never fear, the duo dishes on Fantasia 2000, the park topics that Greg missed, and the promising premiere of ABC’s The Bachelorette. I regret nothing.

While we’re keeping it A Long Time Ago, we’ll go to A Galaxy Far, Far Away...to the forest moon of Endor! We look at Star Tours then and now. And finally, we take the first at what will likely be many forays into Disney on Broadway. Heigh Ho Heigh Ho, it’s off to 3 Happy Chappies we go!

We gon’ take you down, we gon’ take you down, we gon’ take you all the way down...to the bayou!
