Escape From Vault Disney Episode 49: "The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again"
Added 2021-05-11 23:35:48 +0000 UTCThis week, the randomizer takes us all the way back to that magical year of 1979. The 70s were wrapping up, and what did Disney have to show for their first thoroughly Waltless decade? A dwindling animation department; a lot of ground lost to Spielberg, Lucas, Henson and Donner in the "family movie" market; an executive boardroom STILL asking "What would Walt have done?"; and a WHOLE lot of very dumb slapstick comedy sequels starring Don Knotts and/or Tim Conway, or in the case of this week's topic, both! Join Tony Goldmark, Lewis Lovhaug (aka Linkara!), Josh Saucedo and Kaylyn Saucedo (aka MarzGurl!) as they see what the hell happens when THE APPLE DUMPLING GANG RIDES AGAIN!

It feels like this is yet another movie that only exists because two supporting characters from the first movie became super-popular and the studio decided “Let’s give them their own spinoff movie”.
