Ok, this is probably for the older people on here, which is what, like 2 people? And I'm not sure where to put this exactly, so I'm just Eeny-Meeny-Miny-Moing. Anyways....
~ Does anyone remember when Hercules was in the theaters, Blockbuster had these free Hercules one scene pop-up books. It came with little paper doll-like characters. I had one that was the Nessus waterfall scene and it came with Phil, Herc, Meg, and Nessus. I used the Meg one as a bookmark, if only I could remember which book...
~ Also, did anyone ever see the Disney Magazine (the small one) that had Meg, Jasmine, and Belle(?) on the cover? They were doing the "Charlie's Angels" pose: Jasmine was doing a serious looking karate move, Belle(?) was all timid, and Meg was doing a karate chop motion, half-a$$ed with a smirk on her face. I remember seeing it at the grocery store when I was a wee one.
~ And finally, I asked this over in the Pummeled Pomegranate, but maybe some of you didn't see it....Did anyone catch the ABC special they had for Hercules before it came out? I was 10, but I distinctly remember Susan Egan tending bar and maybe Tate Donovan being a patron. Also Bob Goldthwait and Matt Frewer were eavesdropping on their conversation.
I am almost positive all of these things exist(ed), if not I need some serious help. Anyone?

Aww crap. I was hoping at least ONE person would remember at least ONE of the things I mentioned. BUT I have evidence of the promo-bar-scnene-thing: "Not too surprisingly, Disney aired a special prime time television program introducing the Hercules characters and cast, on the ABC network, of course. Media coverage of the film's opening also included two specials on the Disney Channel. "Movie Surfers Go Inside Disney's Hercules" (Sunday at 5:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m.) explored the movie set and provided facts about the film. Disney's "Hercules Strikes Manhattan" (Sunday at 7:30 p.m. and 10:30 p.m.) featured the "Hercules Electrical Parade" as it moved through the streets of New York."
Oh and it was the Disney Adventures magazine, I didn't realize there was actually a Disney Magazine haha.......still can't find it.

Oh goodness, I vaguely remember these things. I would have been 10? I think? When did the movie come out, 1997? But I remember seeing all the previews on TV and wanting to see it, but I didn't end up seeing the movie until I was around 13. But those things you mentioned do sound familiar!
