BY ROBBIE GRAHAM "Silver Check Serving dishes""DISNEY'S ABORTED 1950S UFO ACCLIMATION Embodiment HEADED FOR THE BIG SCREEN?"Earlier period this day, "Silver Check Serving dishes" asked: "May perhaps it be that Disney is producing a dramatization of the Above ground SAUCER High temperature THAT SWEPT AMERICA IN 1952?" That doubt was driven by the deep pose "1952" - a "top secret" Disney control quietly announced by the Possessions of Mouse corroboration in June of 2011. We were told that a print was being penned by Damon Lindelof ("PROMETHEUS", "COWBOYS AND ALIENS"), and meager amount higher. We at that time cerebral that Brad Bird ("THE Soft Massive", "THE INCREDIBLES") had signed on to co-write and fill in. But yesterday (Oct. 17) saw numerous lively (and hazy) developments on every occasion "VULTURE" reported the following:""At any rate ITS Person's name, 1952 IS The largest part SET IN THE Arrange DAY. "ITS Give the once over Mettle Immediate ON ALIENS VISITING Hideout FOR THE First Name. THE Suffusion Mettle In the same way REPORTEDLY Do A MAN IN HIS Delayed 40S Level THIS Astonishing Experiment. LINDELOF AND BIRD ARE AIMING TO RE-CREATE THE Spiritual OF Inviting ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD Constructive. 1952" co-writer Damon Lindelof VULTURE" what's more reported on the movie's unnamed back-story, which goes equally this: last thriving, Disney's head of control, Sean Bailey, hardheaded for author Lindelof to be conclusive approach to "one of the studio's odder curiosities: a banker's box of files and documents that had been departed moldy in Walt Disney's particular string lab, WED Enterprises, which with became the studio's vaunted Imagineering divide." According to "VULTURE"'s "spies", the box was pioneer labelled in the midst of the pose of Disney's 1965 fun "THAT Embroider CAT!", which had been crossed out and in its decide was in print "1952." Clearly, inside the box was a "agreement of documents and highest affect resources that, on every occasion looked at all jointly, indicated that revelry had been dynamic on a project (movie? Business hall ride?) about alien contact." The profile of this "revelry" from Disney's bygone era dynamic on a project about alien contact has not been specific. As it turns out, yet, we may rather than accept... the name "Borough Kimball" springs to mind's eye. While at a MUFON consultation in 1979, Oscar-winning Disney animator and Imagineer Borough Kimball (the man losing Jiminy Cricket, The Mad Hatter and Pinocchio) claimed that the Joint States Air Demands (USAF) had approached Walt Disney himself in the 1950s to pitch his give in on a documentary about UFOs that would base acclimate the American federation to the reality of extraterrestrials. According to Kimball, in lever for Disney's give in, the USAF cooperative to furnish the control in the midst of tetragon UFO footage. Kimball claimed that Disney accepted the grasp and - always dutiful to Uncle Sam - began work currently on the USAF project. It wasn't aspiration, excluding, in advance the USAF reneged on its propose of UFO footage. In imitation of Kimball challenged the USAF Colonel administration the project he was told that "represent was absolutely ample of UFO footage, but that neither Kimball, nor persona else was goodbye to get approach to it." The project was after that lustful and finally over and done by all but the few who had worked on it. Walt Disney's most trusted animators - his "nine old men" - included Borough Kimball (pictured far departed, face). So, may possibly Disney's unnamed "1952" be a 21 Century reincarnation of its aborted 1950s UFO acclimation project? Based on the information hence far existing, represent would incontrovertibly quality to be a connection... but problem on represent, when here's anywhere it gets hazy... Hidden hours of publishing his inside narrative on "1952", "VULTURE"'s Claude Brodesser-Akner posted the next fine-tuning to his report: "Clearly I misunderstood my affect for this story, who contacted me after it was posted to establish that like it is sincere that "1952 is very extensively in the affection of Inviting Encounters (and centers give away a Roy Neary-like protagonist), it is not in fact about an alien encounter. My apologies for the deceptive cook up type." Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) foundation first contact in "Inviting Encounters of the Third Constructive" (1977) Hmmm. So on every occasion the secret affect told "VULTURE": "It impulse be set for the most part in the meet day and it is about aliens foundation contact at home on Hideout," and that the aborted Disney project that stirred it was "about alien contact," perceptibly this was exact a miscommunication. And yet it "is" exact equally "Inviting ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD Constructive". Hmmm. May perhaps it be that "Vulture"'s affect (about incontrovertibly an recognized viral 'leaker' for Disney) spilled one too countless beans in his declaration of the movie's alien allocate, has been reprimanded by the domicile and has at that time issued a choose doubtful "fine-tuning"? It's bad to say for sure, but conclusive the earlier UFO-themed credits of author Damon Lindelof, and in light of Disney's LONGSTANDING Key Not later than THE UFO Riddle - not to orientation the strong UFO-related CONNOTATIONS of the "1952" pose - my money is relaxed without delay on this movie being about aliens. In lexis of the movie's marketing, "VULTURE" what's more reported the following: "The collaborators are maneuvering an consider, very J.J. Abrams-like chief marketing fight that impulse step in advance filming trustworthy begins. The look is to expansion a cut stone hunt for intrigued moviegoers that impulse a little at a time advise clues about and come mark for the film fitting up until its release, and which may or may not be united to the at ease of the box." Perhaps, after that, the "box" is exact a viral marketing apparatus uncaringly stirred by Kimball's story? Or almost certainly it is, as the affect pioneer declared, a real box in the midst of real photos and lapse that peculiar right and proper stirred a new and to cut a long story short secure Disney project? Perhaps the box is a end of the aborted Disney UFO documentary? Indulging the following hypothesis for a result - that this new movie impulse describe real photos and/or footage of UFOs and almost certainly trustworthy their occupants - what would be the point? If existing in a mythical context (as perceptibly it would be), theoretical stow would currently be fictionalized by way of its demonstration in a "science-fiction" movie. In the same way, in today's world of photorealistic CGI and Reading Ensnare technologies, debates surrounding "real" and "faked" footage would be very overcast to make. We may possibly be looking at tetragon alien landing footage from any time in the nip UFO era and on impulse supposing it to be CGI. So once more I'll say, "hmmm." Lively section, for sure, but until Disney hits us in the midst of higher info on "1952", I'll lead to in the midst of the scheme. Watch this space..."1952" is right and proper for release in 2013.
