about
Len Testa & Jim Hill look back at how the Imagineers got tripped up as they tried to create an attraction at Disney’s Vacation Kingdom that celebrated the Studio’s first-ever full-length live-action film.
lyrics
Over the course of this episode, listeners will learn about:
How many different names did Treasure Island have prior to Walt Disney Productions acquiring all of that land around Bay Lake
Why were the turkey buzzards who consider Walt Disney World part of their turf upset with the way the Imagineers themed the beachfront area around the wreck of the Walrus
How many tons of earth & rock had to hauled out to Treasure Island to facilitate construction of that attraction’s on-site buildings & natural trails
Why were executives at Disney Studios blindsided when -- just as a courtesy -- they sent the then-25-year-old “Treasure Island” to the MPAA to get a film rating
Which currently-on-hold DVC project may now hold the key to Discovery Island’s future
