"Magic Journeys" used to be shown at Journey into Imagination at EPCOT Center.
It was replaced about 5 or 6 years ago with Captain EO.  About a year or two
later,  "Magic Journeys" reappeared in the Magic Kingdom as an attraction in
Fantasyland.

Actually, it is a bit more complicated...  The figures are somewhat customized
to conform to the (best guess) height of the President.  There is the job of
figuring out where to PUT the new figure, and having to move all the machinery
under the stage (each figure has about a 2'x2' square iron frame bolted to the
floor.  Reshuffling the control panels.  Redoing the Introduction routine.
Also, if I remember right, the President has to OK the final figure...

To the best of my recollection, Bush didn't appear for nearly a year, but that
was a while ago and my time sense isn't the best in this or any world.

Spaceship Earth is sponsored by AT&T and includes a corporate lounge.
AT&T employees have free access by showing their badge through a special
camera during weekdays 9am-5pm (I believe these are the hours).  The
lounge includes a sitting area, conference rooms, free refreshments (cold
drinks, coffee and tea).  The sitting area is small and resides right next
to a receptionists desk.  There is also a passage way directly onto the
ride, which means if there is a huge line waiting to ride, AT&T employees
can sneak onto the ride ahead of others by way of the lounge.  The lounge
is located on the second floor.  Access is by elevator or stairs through
an unmarked door.  If you were standing in the area where you make 
reservations for dinner (TV screens) and facing the TVs, the door is to
your right.  Employees enter the door and place their corporate ID on
a special surface.  The ID/badge is examined.  You are also on camera.
The receptionists will talk to you.  If you are cleared, the evevator
will open.

This is espacially nice during the HOT summer and COLD winter days.  The
temperature is very comfortable and the drinks offered are compliment the
weather.  There has even been hot chocolate during the winter.  Conference
rooms are available for any business meeting and catered by Walt Disney.

Hope that answers your question.

I visited Universe of Energy Lounge while in a Wonders program at WDW (Energy,
I think it has since been cancelled). There is a desk where you sign in and a
lounge wher4e (I think) you watch the pre-show. Then you join everyone else in
the big moving theatre units and go on with the ride.

The Entrance is located on the side of the building in one of the red or
orange sections between the reflective bars.

There is also a lounge on the side of the Horizons pavillon (where they
rerouted people around during a temporary closing of the main exit a few years
ago), does anyone know anything about it.

Well, that makes four.

 Spare us OK - I am far more offended by your preaching than I am by
a simple adult-humor oriented parody of some cartoon. The fact that
you view it as pornography says more than any post you can present.

 Tell me - which God is that? One of the Hindu Gods perhaps? PErhaps
a dead Inca God? OH *THE* God - sorry. Look, you haver a right to your
religious views but you don't have a right to force them down everyone's
throat. If you don't like the damn material then heed the warning
and don't read it. The bottom line is that you do not have to read
the article if you do not want to - granted this is difficult if there
is no disclaimer explaining that it might offend but when there is
such a disclaimer and when you have the strong views you seem to have, then
there is only one person to blame for your being offended and that person
is you.

 Good for you. But what does this have to do with the rights of those of
us who choose not to believe as you do? Your religious views should
somehow restrict my right to read a parody like the one posted? I don't
agree...
 
> Now, because of this truth, I am not only allowed to speak up
> against pornography, I am obligated to do so!  

 First off - you have the right to speak up just as I have a right to
counter you - but your logic as to why you have the right is a bit
twisted. You have the right the same as anyone else to express your
opinions but it has nothing to do with the relative truth or falsity of
your particular religious beliefs. 

  Thanks a bunch but I'll decide what I find offensive if it is OK by
you...

Some that I have noticed (sorry if there are repeats):
   1) The first time the rose is shown the camera is inside looking out
     the window. When the rose glows, the camera is outside looking in
     (preparing to zoom out and show the castle). The only problem is
     that the handle of the mirror is still pointing toward the camera!
     To quote Maurice, "Now how on earth did that happen?"

    2) Phillipe has no problem outrunning the wolves when he is dragging
       Maurice's wood-chopping machine behind him, but can't when he is
       only carrying Belle.

    3) Why do only some of the animate-inanimates have faces?

Love is Belle's strength. :-)  I suppose Phillipe could have
bent down like a camel to let Belle roll or drag him on.  That's a
little easier to swallow than a petite woman lifting a bear-sized
Beast outright.

But I still don't believe that she could have prevented his fall
from the balcony.  The guy must weigh at LEAST 300 pounds (no,
probably much more if he were real).  At first, I thought he would
continue to hold on with his left paw, but instead his arms were
actually flailing.

Thinking of that scene, I wonder why Beast died so easily because of
the knife wound in his side.  Any serious wound could be fatal for a
variety of reasons, but he had just been shot in the back with an
arrow!  It didn't seem to bother him at all after the initial pain.
Granted, this is possible, but unlikely.

NNTP-Posting-Host: slc5.ins.cwru.edu


If you could get past all the election coverage in the Nov. 4th USA
Today, the cover story of the Life section is about Aladdin.  The 
reporter says it's "a hip joy ride that's as buoyantly funny as Beauty
(and the Beast) was lushly romantic."  She mentions the talk about an
oscar nomination for Robin Williams.  Quoting Martin Grove of the
"Hollywood Reporter," "Everyone I've talked to who has seen Aladdin has
raved.  It could be more beautiful at the box office than Beauty."  The
article goes on to talk about last year's relatively large offering of
animated features, which, except for B&B opened "to a collective yawn."
The article also says Genie animator Eric Goldberg "dropped in a few jabs
at sacred Disney icons (including Mermaid's Sebastian the Crab and a 
certain wooden boy, no lying)."  The article mentions that Aladdin is 
the final work of Howard Ashman.  It then mentioned that The Lion King
is due out in summer '94 (a Bambi-esque tale about a lion cub, with music
by Elton John and Tim Rice) and Pocahontas should be out in fall '94.
Next year, Disney will be releasing Tim Burton's claymation-style film, 
The Nightmare Before Christmas, instead of it's usual animated feature.
Good article, I thought, but I hate it that this nobody reporter got to
see Aladdin already while I, a die-hard, true blue, mad about the mouse
Disney fan have to wait.  Bummer.  I need to get into that line of work.

As always, I'd like to poke and prod everyone's brains for information
on the Happiest Places (read "franchises") on Earth.  Right now I'm
looking for information on how the Disney Parks handle people who are

The idea here is to get a good feel for what should make up a good

In late September (I think this was when Fantasmic was playing on weekends),
Disneyland had a couple of carts selling Fantasmic merchandise.  I believe
additional merchandise was also available then at the Emporium, but I don't 
know about now.

I suspect that the unavailability of the Fantasmic CD means that Disneyland
*might* be phasing out the show pretty soon.  Right now it's showing only
on weekends (I assume it's still going on since I see commercials for it on
TV).

During these scenes (very cute and appropriate, IMHO), watch the level
of tea in Chip.  It doesn't stay very constant, at least when Belle
is drinking out of him (involuntary shiver).
