 | Happy 84th Birthday Mickey and Minnie Mouse! | |

Today is the 84th birthday of the two most famous mice in the world, Mickey and Minnie.
Mickey was born from the imagination of a man who had a dream of making it big, and a dream of providing endless joy to people across the world.
Through Mickey Mouse, Walt Disney has given the world an icon for laughter, fun and the ideal of having a dream to better yourself and other people.
Walt Disney's beloved Mickey Mouse to this day continues to provide entertainment to millions across the globe, through new mediums such as live shows, the Disney Parks and brand new state of the art video games.
Although Plane Crazy was technically the first cartoon to feature Mickey and Minnie, it is Steamboat Willie's debut that is recognised as being Mickey and Minnie's official birthday.
Mickey Mouse is not just a star, he is THE star in the glittering Disney sky, and although Minnie isn’t technically a princess, she has played the roll on a number of occasions, and in the words of Mickey, she’ll always be a princess to us.
A VERY Happy Birthday Mickey and Minnie Mouse!
Join us now for a very special photo cavalcade of Mickey and Minnie at the Disney Parks around the world!

Today is the 10th anniversary of the premier of Disney's Treasure Planet.
A much underrated film, it tells the story of Jim Hawkins in a modern day twist to the Treasure Island story.
Sadly, the characters are incredibly rare at the parks, and the only one we have ever met is B.E.N.
So, let's celebrate with him, and wish him, Jim and all their friends a very happy 10th anniversary!

Today is the 23rd anniversary of Disney's classic, The Little Mermaid.
Featuring Ariel, Eric and beloved characters such as Sebastian and Flounder, it has warmed the hearts of millions with it's tale of an unlikely love, and the Sea Witch's intense evil plot.
So, in our usual style here on the Blog, we have a great character cavalcade lined up!
Happy Birthday Ariel and all her under the sea friends!

Today is the 21st anniversary of the premier of Disney's masterpiece, Beauty and the Beast.
Beauty and the Beast is one of Disney's most successful and best loved films. It stars some of the most cherished characters and features classic songs that are truly timeless.
Happy 21st Birthday Belle, Prince Adam (Beast), Cogsworth, Lumiere, Mrs Potts, Chip, Babette and Gaston!
Today is also the 72nd anniversary of the release of Walt Disney's masterpiece, Fantasia. I find it hard to believe that it was 72 years ago that Mickey Mouse was immortalised as the Sorcerer's Apprentice and we were first introduced to Hyacinth Hippo, the Mushrooms, the Elephants, the Brooms and Mme Upanova for the first time! (yes, they have all been characters at the parks!)
Happy Birthday Hyacinth, the Mushrooms, the Elephants, the Brooms and Mme Upanova!
Finally, yesterday was the 13th anniversary anniversary of Toy Story 2, which saw the birth of two characters - Jessie and the especially cute and innocent Bullseye.
Happy Birthday Bullseye and Jessie!
As always, we have a special photo cavalcade, and seeing as today is a triple celebration there are a lot of pictures, so enjoy!

 | The most important date in history? | |

I nearly always talk about Disney Characters here at Character Central, but we are not specifically just about Disney. Some of you may have ventured into our other sections from time to time and found that we have an array of other characters, from other properties too.
One of those is Doc Brown from the Back to the Future film series.
It's interesting to note that on this day in 1955, "that that point in time inherently contains some sort of cosmic significance, almost as if it were the temporal junction point of the entire space-time continuum" - Doc Brown.
Anyone experience any unusual cosmic happenings today?...
