And then I saw they have an active presence on the web. I noticed that Wikipedia and other web resources also seemed to contain a trail to them.
Anybody who would like to make it accessible to me, please contact me.)īut I noticed that additional information resources came from Chris Barat and Joe Torcivia, such as the introduction to "Carl Barks' Greatest DuckTales Stories".

(Unfortunately I missed out their full DuckTales Index which contained *everything*.
#Ducktales theme song old plus#
Thank you Niem!) It contains a detailed review of every DuckTales episode from Season 1 (65 episodes) plus additional production information. I was so fortunate that a comic-loving friend knew I loved DuckTales and he gave me the issue. Perhaps my most prized DuckTales possession is a copy of a self-published magazine called "The Duckburg Times", Issue #24/25 by Joe Torcivia and Chris Barat. I have various materials I've saved and collected over the years which contain behind the scenes information about the series, so I originally thought I should focus on that. I wish I were better at these things and really wish I had the time to do a video, but perfectionism is another word for procrastination, and I need to get something done before the date passes.įor this 25th anniversary, I wanted to do something special but I wasn't sure what my angle should be. Since Disney isn't going to do anything to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of DuckTales, I feel compelled to do my own tribute.

2012 was also the year of "John Carter", a $350 million (includes marketing) mega-flop of a movie which resulted in Disney to doing a $200 million write-down.) (And yes, I'm going to be vindictive and go for the jugular. Not only should fans of DuckTales be angry, but Disney shareholders should be angry too as this reflects badly on the current management's ability to earn profits. I'm always quite amazed at Disney's inability to capitalize on their own successful products. And what is Disney doing to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of DuckTales, the most successful syndicated cartoon series in history? Absolutely nothing. Paramount/Viacom/CBS has a long history of making sure no Star Trek milestone goes unnoticed and this year is no different.īut what media company has almost 4 times the market capitalization of CBS and is among the largest media conglomerates in the world? That would be Disney of course. (This is not a bad thing.) The most demonstrable is Star Trek: The Next Generation which celebrates its 25th Anniversary this year. Normally each would be accompanied with public fanfare and a rush to capitalize/merchandise on the momentous event.
There are several things this year coming across their 25th Anniversaries. All modern American animation comes from DuckTales. All modern American literature comes from Huckleberry Finn.
