Mickey Mouse is a comic animal cartoon character who has become a symbol for The Walt Disney Company. He was created on November 18, 1928 by Ub Iwerks and voiced by Walt Disney, and the mouse has evolved from being simply a character in animated cartoons and comic strips to become one of the most recognizable symbols in the world.\n\nWalt Disney himself voiced Mickey Mouse from 1928 until 1946, when sound effects man James G. MacDonald took over the role. Mickey has been voiced since 1983 by Wayne Allwine, MacDonald's former apprentice.

Oh, yes, I remember when it was originally aired.  I loved Spin and Marty.  Remember "Gold da blunes and pieces of eight"?  Annette singing "How Will I know My Love"  Then there was Darlene who was adorable and usually played a tomboy in the serials.  Then there were the youngest, Karen and Cubby.  I think Moochie (Pollyanna) was one of the original Mousecateers. I wish "Fury" the story of a horse and the boy who loved him would come back on.  You are also probably too young to remember "Sky King" and "Circus Boy" with Mickey Dolenz who eventually became a member of The Monkees.

I'm uncertain of the question. Disney's first film based on the AA Milne stories of Pooh and friends debuted in 1966: Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree. They have held the USA rights to the characters since.\n\nDisneyland had a parking lot named after Eeyore, which was swallowed up as the resort expanded and added the Indiana Jones Adventure which opened March 3, 1995. In a tribute to what formerly occupied the site, hidden in the queue for the ride is a parking sign from the former Eeyore lot.

"Mickey" is a 1982 hit US pop song recorded by female singer/choreographer Toni Basil. Written by Mike Chapman and Nicky Chinn as "Kitty" it was first recorded by UK pop group Racey in 1979. Basil changed the lyrics to "Mickey" and the gender from female to male. The single was #1 in the US charts and #2 in the UK.\n\nAs "Mickey" It is one of the most famous cheerleading songs. The quote "Oh Mickey you're so fine, you're so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey" is the quote adopted by cheerleaders.\n\nThe 2000 cheerleading film Bring It On featured Mickey on its soundtrack, and the closing credits had most of the cast lip-syncing and dancing to the song while the credits rolled.\n\n"Weird Al" Yankovic parodied this song on his self titled debut album as "Ricky", a parody of and tribute to I Love Lucy.\n\nSwedish pop singer Carola Häggkvist had a hit in Scandinavia with a translated version of "Mickey" in 1983.\n\nThe UK singer Lolly reached number four in the UK singles chart in 1999 with a cover of this song.\n\nGwen Stefani's single "Hollaback Girl" is a tribute to "Mickey".\n\nIt has been used by the Walt Disney Corporation in advertising campaigns, with reference to Mickey Mouse.\n\nThe song is also the theme tune for prominent Canadian football expert Mickey Fairplay, who frequently gives his opinion on footballing matters in the UK

McDonald's is pronounced "Mick Donald's". \nD is the first letter of "Donald's". \nHence, "Mickey D's"

They did! Jodie and Rory were at Disneyland just minding their own business, when Mickey jumped Rory and Jodie trying to get an autograph. Just another crazed fan trying to get an autograph. Jodie started pulling some karate on him, and Rory threw a Smurf on him, turning him blue. Jodie and Rory started yelling obscenities at him, and that is what made Mickey Mouse cry. He is now referred to as the real life Paul Giamatti. And, as of yesterday he is at home with a toothbrush and some Dawn dishwashing liquid trying to get the blue off. He is trying to get Jodie's words out of his head. As for Jodie and Rory, when they got through making Mickey cry, they laughed! Heck, I would have done the same thing!

Most of the Harman-Ising and Fleischer works came about after Mickey's first apperance in November 1928. The creators of Harman-Ising once worked with Disney on the Laugh-O-Gram shorts, so it's not any wonder that the characters look similar. They all worked together once!!\nAs for Fleischer, his Mickey lookalikes didn't appear until 1929-1930. \nWhile I could find no proof that Mickey wasn't the first, it doesn't necessarily mean that no one thought of the idea prior to Mickey's debut. No one else marketed the idea of a gloved mouse beofre Disney did in 1928. Mickey actually appeared in Plane Crazy (May 15, 1928) which was a silent film never offically released to the public, so Mickey's "Official" debut came on November 18, 1928 in "Steamboat Willie."\nWhile Walt Disney considered naming his character Mortimer, his wife Lillian convinced him to change it to Mickey. Mortimer was used later as the name of Minnie's Uncle. Contrary to popular belief, no cartoons were actually released as Mickey's name being Mortimer.

Mickey Mouse would win.\n\nKingdom Hearts 2 proves it without a doubt, because he wields one of the keyblades. Plus he's extraordinarily fast compared to Bugs Bunny.

Here's the ACTUAL answer that you will not recieve from these chumps. You see, Mickey Mouse is a cartoon character-ized mouse created by Walt Disney. Now, they were hand drawn by this great man and they were created to be of equal size so that nobody would get jelous of eachother. You know, Donald Duck has a temper, so Walt decided that to keep things in peace, he would create all the characters of equal size. That is what I think, and I am very pleased you asked this GREAT question!

Can't believe I am acutally answering. Dont ask all of the children on this. Go to the college where you want your work to be their credit. Probably to do with enrollment or an advisor. If you dont have the money to have actual employees, they probably dont have the time to mess with a mickeymouse.com company.

FIRST CARTOON\nThe first cartoon appeared in Ben Franklin's newspaper The Pennsylvania Gazette on May 9, 1754. It appeared as part of an editorial by Franklin commenting on 'the present disunited state of the British Colonies.'\n\nAnother early cartoon from the 1700's appeared in the Massachusetts Centinel on January 30, 1788. Entitled 'The Federal Superstructure,' the drawing shows a hand helping to raise the Massachusetts pillar to an upright position. The Centinel newspaper, a supporter of the new Constitution, observed that 'The Pillar of the Great Federal Edifice rises daily.'\nhttp://www.earlyamerica.com/earlyamerica/firsts/cartoon/\n\nFIRST ANIMATED CARTOON\nThe predecessor of early animation was the newspaper comic strips of the 1890s. Historically and technically, the first short, animated film (in other words, the first fully-animated film ever made) was Humorous Phases of Funny Faces (1906) by newspaper cartoonist J. Stuart Blackton, one of the co-founders of the Vitagraph Company. \nhttp://www.filmsite.org/animatedfilms.html\n\n1ST TELEVISED CARTOON\nMay 19, 1939- The Walt Disney cartoon Donald's Cousin Gus airs on NBC's experimental station W2XBS (later WNBC-TV) in New York. This marked the first film cartoon to be televised in the United States. \n\nSeptember 1, 1939 - The anticipated outbreak of World War II brings television broadcasting at the BBC to an end at 12:35 p.m. after the broadcast of the Mickey Mouse cartoon, Mickey’s Gala Première, various sound and vision test signals, and announcements by presenter Fay Cavendish. It was feared that the VHF waves of television would act as a perfect homing signal for guiding enemy bombers to central London: in any case, the engineers of the television service would be needed for the war effort, particularly for RADAR. The BBC would resume its broadcasting, with the same Mickey Mouse cartoon, after the war in 1946. \n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1939_in_television

I've wondered that one myself.\n\nA better question is, if goofy and Pluto are both dogs, why does Pluto wear a collar and have a dog house, where goofy has a job and car and house???

My first job was at Chuck E Cheeses. I had to dress up as the mouse. It smelt of dirty feet and farts.
