Great Moments with Mr. Martin

Well, the lighting didn't bother me, having been on or around enough film sets to know that lighting is easily altered. I didn't notice the lack of tracks, though. How weird. It's clear that the Castle/fireworks bit is in front of a bluescreen, as well. Why do you suppose they chose not to shoot this at the Park? I may be more bothered by this than someone else might be, but Disneyland has done a admirable job of playing itself on film many times. Why the stand-in?

I wonder if this set is where the Third Indian (in the Gallery) came from.

I'm guessing they wanted a little more control over not just the lighting but then entire atmosphere; shooting outdoors can be a tricky task if you want full control over all of the set elements, not to mention the weather. Plus, buildings and props can be 'cheated' on a soundstage recreation to make the camera angle look better than it otherwise could on Main Street.
