Disney treasure: Color film from 1957
 

That was rad. (Weird choice of added music, tho).

I'm glad they showed Aunt Jemima for a second. My friend Laurie's mom worked in her Pancake House in Frontierland for a while.

Heh, I presumed it was silent so listened on mute.

Not quite as rare as the other video, but here's a news reel from The opening of Spaceship Earth

*sigh*

Cool Rockets, Tea Cups that actually spin, The Skyway...

Watching that it's hard not to be a grumpy old man.

That was [Thurl Ravencroft]GRRRRRRREAT!!!![/Thurl Raventcroft]

I was THERE for that Spaceship Earth speech! :eek:

Sky way buckets! That was great!!

Could this be the 1957 footage above, leaked out before the DVD release? It looks so clear and sharp and high resolution to just be old footage owned by someone and posted on YouTube.

Not to brag (okay, I am), but I've been in Walt's apartment. Neener.

If so it'll be easy to tell when it gets pulled from Youtube in the next few hours.

How's the view from up there?

Almost as good as from inside.

I hate to brag but I've been to a big party at Innoventions where I was served a martini that started its poor upstairs while I was downstairs and peed next to Blair Underwood after waiting in line for the basement restroom with Patricia Arquette.

Also, I once rode the Omnibus on Main Street. Neener.

I met Walt Disney. Neener.



OK, so I was one or two and have no memory of the event but it still counts dammit.

A friend of mine took a squat on Walt's toilet in the apartment. He loves to recount this to anyone he meets.

So THAT'S why they don't let people up there any more.....

;)

You can tell him thanks from all of the Disney fans!

I didnt know they had a 'Walts Apartment' on the east coast... ;)
