Walt Returns To Offer Career Advice
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.

Walt Returns To Offer Career Advice

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

I got it, just didn't make sense to me since Disney is not the copyright holder for the video ;)GRUMPY PIRATE wrote:okay people, since you didn't quite get the reference.

yeah, again on the uptake....
from a saying" Ya gots ta pay da man"
meaning not a specific man, but the "establishment"
I substituted a mouse for the man (are you a man or a mouse?)
because it involved Walt Disney.... (again, not a specific company!)
sheesh, explaining humor!!!!

Re: Walt Returns To Offer Career Advice
Like I said, I got it, however my job training makes me go, oh, I can see where he tried to be funny, however it is not because it would not be a properly formed complaint, the Mouse could not make a claim to Youtube for the copyright violation because the content is owned by NBC Universal. They could try for a copyright violation claim in court, but it would fail, they know it would fail, so they would not even try.GRUMPY PIRATE wrote:yeah, again on the uptake....
