In the first episode of 'Skyward Sword: The History of Zelda' we gather people's opinions of the Legend of Zelda series to learn how this influential series has left its mark on gaming history, but also the hearts and minds of the fans. We also begin the series proper with the most logical starting point: The early history of Nintendo.

This is probably the most professional looking video I have ever seen come
out of an amateur review site. It's so gorgeous that a chill ran down my
spine in the last scene where Link inserts the master sword right at the
final note of TO BE CONTINUED.
In the 1950s the Disney corporation hit its stride with Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, and a slew of popular television shows like Treasure Island. In this part, we look at how Walt Disney used these to get over the scandals of the previous years, how he cleaned up his act as 'Uncle Walt', and how animation changed in the eyes of the American public at large, leading to the culmination of Walt's deepest desire- Disneyland.
The war years are the initial focus of this episode- looking at how Walt created productions out of the turbulent strikes and the flow of the package movies, and which worked out better than others. Our secondary focus is on Walt Disney's controversial contributions to the McCarthy era and the communist blacklisting.
The conflict between Walt and the employees escalates, and we compare Bambi to Dumbo and see how Walt's film differs from a film largely self directed by animators.

Walt's next feature length, Pinocchio, and his personal music project, Fantasia, are both discussed here. We see how Pinocchio is the first Disney product to truly push the boundaries of animated storytelling and tone, and how Fantasia manages to bring Mickey Mouse back into the fold with a brand new appearance as the sorcerers apprentice.
With Skyward Sword out in 30 or so days, I thought now would be a good time to post the teaser video to start getting some interest, and also to let people know that Cheshirecatstudios will be the new best place to go and watch it. And this time, you guys will get to take part! I'm going to be going around and asking people and fans if they'd like to lend their voices to this documentary and tell me what their favorite moments in the Legend of Zelda Series are.
We see how Walt Disney's first feature length animated film, Snow White, completely changed the animation movie industry, and touch upon the risky subject of Walt's possible prejudices.
Mickey Mouse may have succeeded where Oswald failed in securing the Companies future, but it didn't make him invulnerable - not even to his own cast...
We look at the history of Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks animation careers, and the development of Mickey Mouse and Oswald - from Oswalds rise, to Oswalds fall, to Mickeys rise.
In Part 1 of Epic Mickey B-Mask shows the impact Disney has had on our generation in particular. Hopefully this will both inform and intrigue people about Disneys past and Epic Mickeys role in reviving the creative side of the Disney franchises.
The documentary series that goes behind the scenes of your favorite movies and comics.
There are plenty of tales people love. What they remember the most are the characters and storylines , but there are just as many who ask themselves, 'why did I like that? What did the creators do to make it work? What do they think of what they've made-and where are they now?'
This is where Beyond Pictures comes in. Created and hosted by B-mask, Beyond Pictures focuses on the story behind the images, on screen or in comics. It features archive footage from a multitude of sources, and analysis and interviews from B-mask himself. If you're a film fan, a TV bug, a comic book reader or a person who just wonders 'why does that work?', then Beyond Pictures is for you!
