Im reading a book about Walt Disney......How to Be Like Walt by Pat Williams. In 1937 Walt began to create Fantasia, and Leopold Stokowski was the one that conducted the piece and helped with the whole music and sound. Do you think that disney writers made any connection with the names, just to add a little secret??

[SorcererMickey]

I don't think so.

But there is a tribute to a film legend: Harry Hausen

The name of the sushi restaurant where Mike takes Celia for her birthday and later find Boo.

Harry Hausen was the animator for the best clay animation movies thru the 60's, 70's and 80's, Jason and the Argonauts, One Million Years B.C. , Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger, Clash of the Titans.

I love all those films!

[SorcererMickey]

Yeah, so do I :yes: . Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger and Clash of the Titans are my favorites. John Lasseter is a huge fan of Harry Hausen and has a big collection of his claymation figures from these movies. Putting his name in the movie was a nice tribute.
