Step In Time: THE PARENT TRAP with Margaret Kerry Sep 24, 2015

Show notes

Let’s get together and Step In Time with The Parent Trap and our special Co-Host, Margaret Kerry! The animator’s reference model for Tinker Bell flew in to sprinkle some pixie dust on our conversation. She has met and worked with a few members of the cast, so Margaret Kerry’s insight is especially intriguing!

It’s 1961, and Hayley Mills is the newest Disney darling. She’s perfect for the role of teenage twins, Sharon and Susie, who are reunited at summer camp after never knowing the other one even existed. After discovering their family connection, they seek out a way to get their divorced parents (played by Maureen O’Hara and Brian Keith) back together. Non-stop hilarity ensues!

STEP IN TIME: Remembering Disney's Matinee Movies is a NEW monthly spin-off show where we look back at the Disney live-action films of yesteryear. If you are already subscribed to Skywalking Through Neverland - do nothing! This show will appear in your feed.

Original music composed by Rob Dehlinger

Hang onto something, Skywalkers, because we talk with Mark Dodson, the voice behind Salacious Crumb, the Gremlins and so many crazy creatures!

Awesome stories, an Anthony Daniels encounter and so many more things we never knew. (12:57)

It’s here! Disney Infinity 3.0 officially launched, and the CUTEST Star Wars figures are hitting retailer shelves. Sarah, especially, has been obsessing for months, and now she can FINALLY talk about it on the show. So listen, maybe learn some things, and see how Star Wars has been integrated into one of the most entertaining games in the industry right now. Ahsoka riding a taun-taun while carrying a baby bantha? You’ve come to the right place.(14:16)

Skywalkers Amy and Joel Anderson took a trip with their family to the "Star Wars And The Power of Costume" exhibit at the EMP Museum in Seattle, WA.
