Featured review
Nice travelogue
As someone who was a Florida resident for much of her childhood, and who had regular passes to Disney World during that time (1989-95), this film brought back a lot of memories for me. My family spent a lot of time at WDW in that era, but sadly we have relatively little but our memories to show for it (we did not own a functional video camera for much of that time, and still pictures hardly do the place justice). That's why I considered myself fortunate to find this film on the Internet. It shows many of the things I remember most about WDW (though not all-the film pre-dated EPCOT Center, MGM Studios, etc). It shows Space and Thunder Mountains in action (Thunder Mountain was my favorite ride in the whole park-I remember being so bummed out when it was closed for re-painting during one of our trips there in the 90s), the nightly light parade, the various resort hotels, and lots and lots of general footage of the park. (The film was made in 1980 and shows it-all the park guests are very discofied, which, though not true to my own personal memories of the park, is a fun sidenote!). I grew up to be a theme park junkie, and I'm sure Walt Disney World was what got me started.
