Are the new animated heads seen in this show computer controlled or operator controlled? I know in the old style shows the actors just follow
along with the preprogrammed routines. is it the same for the new heads?

I think they are pretty cool, except they are a little creepy (especially Hook and Smee).

Eeeew, that error is creepy! Donald talking with Mickey's voice!

I can just see little kids asking, "But Mickey talked in that show and his mouth moved. Why wouldn't he talk or move his mouth when I met him?"
