How does one promote WDW on the cheap??

A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
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.

Was the early 80's really like that? If you'd have asked me I'd have assumed that was made in the 70s!

The early 80's was really just the late late 70's.

Same vein.


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

true dat.


Legend: Alligators dwell in the sewers beneath Disneyland.

Truth: There are no sewers below Disneyland, and therefore no alligators in them. The secret tunnels are infested with mutant rats, however.

I think they're all part of the same video (Betamax? Film Reel? Whatever format Disney sent out it's Vacation Planning films on in those days).

Here's the one for EPCOT Centre (when it was still actually called that):

Hmm, the little girl at around 3:15 doesn't look too happy to be at Disney...

Yeah, most little kids don't look too happy about being at Disney at 3:15. Their parents wake them up early in the morning and then drag them through the parks all day and the kids are often tired before lunch so they are just miserable for the rest of the day.
