Test footage of new audio-animatronic Lincoln for Disneyland
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Re: Test footage of new audio-animatronic Lincoln for Disneyland
Unfortunately Carl Sandburg is dead. He, of course, was very well known and the major biographer of Lincoln. If you are familiar with Aaron Copland's A Lincoln Portrait, Sandburg was the best narrator ever and is on several recordings. One thing is that he was also a midwesterner and his speaking, especially the emphases, seems so much more realistic than an actor.

Just teasing, of course. BW, (with the exception of Figment) probably hasn't caused any actual incontinence ;)

Went on Stitch's Great Escape one time and Stitch must've been VERY hot in his spacesuit, because he was having a MAJOR sweating problem...Big Wallaby wrote:I do have to say, it makes certain attractions much more interesting when I come around a corner, and Figment is so excited to see me that he starts to piddle.
And for those that hadn't seen the "slow-motiong fainting Abe" video mentioned earlier...
