WDW CM Magic - 1983 Info Video

Post by glendalais » Mon Feb 11, 2008 3:55 am

This is a video I found detailing those minute details that have come to distinguish the Disney brand. Interesting to note how things have changed in the past 25 years. And how some haven't (we still use that "lovely" Birthday song at DL for the "Happiest Birthday Celebration on Earth" over at Plaza Inn!).

Though I'm just curious, is the Costume thing still the same at WDW, or do they have the whole "Costume Shopping" thing like we do at DL now?

That was a fun (although outdated) video to watch. When did they rename the underground tunnels "Utilidoors"? It must have been after this video was made.

As far as I know "utilidor" is not the official name of the tunnel system. I believe they are officially referred to as "tunnels".

Also, when are you bringing me that book? If it is better for you I can stop by your place tomorrow afternoon when I get off work about 4:00.


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Okay, I'm back. Nothing special on the calendar, and I have to stop at WalMart, so I'll swing by, drop off the books (PassPorter and Hidden Mickeys) and go to WM on Mobile Hwy. I'll make sure I get there before or after your lunch (I have your schedule).

Okey-dokey. See you then

Now, everybody, back to your regularly scheduled madness.

I notice they didn't use the Disney point back then.
