However, the stunt show is not going to be running 24/7. It's going to be at scheduled times. So, having a major part of the tour revolve around something that won't often be there... not worth it.

Not Mickey & Eisner, Robin & Walter.
Robin Williams and Walter Cronkite starred in "Back to Neverland," a film that demonstrated the animation process by turning Robin Williams into an animated character. At one point in the film, Robin realizes that he's a cartoon...Robin: <Robin has become a cartoon character.> Hey, look! I'm a cartoon! <laughs> Hey, Walt, just how far can you go with this?
Walter: You can do anything that he can draw.
Robin: Hey, animator, whaddya say we have some fun, huh?
Animator: Yeah, all right. Let's go.
Robin: <laughs> I can be anything. <The animator draws Robin many different ways> I can be <teeny voice> just a tiny person. <Peter Lorre voice> Or make my eyes really big. <yelling> Or maybe have legs that are reeeeeeeal long! <The animator makes him look like Walter, and Robin impersonates him> I can even be you, Walter Cronkite.
Walter: Now hold on there.
Robin: Can I do this? I'm Happy. I'm Grumpy. I'm Dopey. <laughs, and becomes Mickey Mouse> Hi everybody! I'm a corporate symbol.
Walter: Hold it, hold it! No. Are you fellas finished?
Robin: <sighs> I always wanted to do that.
Ah, memories of the old version of the Magic of Disney Animation.
I loved that movie.
Bill: oops! My memory must be getting worse. Do you know where and what the Eisner and Mickey film was? Its was set in Eisners `office` with him doing a piece to camera, with a lovely animated textured Mickey joining him - very Roger Rabbit in style. I remember Eisner checked his watch and it was a Mickey watch, then Mickey checked his watch and it was an Eisner watch....

Is there any possibility that they will link backstage pass to the backlot tour into one?

bizarre!!!
Nah, Back to Neverland just got taken out last year.
The Mickey & Eisner movie... that hasn't been shown for years. I vaguely remember that movie. Though I do remember the scene with the watches. I believe that was shown in the beginning backlot tour, the one that lasted 2 hours and you had no option of not doing Backstage Magic. Back when "Here come the Muppets" was part of it.

Didn't the Lottery film feature Bette Middler?
I seem to recall her as a voice coach giving a lesson, then a pigeon comes along and steals her ticket, then there's a crazy chase down a New York street, Bette ends up in a shopping cart which crashes into a subway station... or something like that. In the end she gets the ticket back and builds a statue for the pigeon - and then we got to see the props used to help make the film.
I wonder if anyone has this on video.
Or the Walter/Robin animation video - anyone have that?
Good times.

Thanks bill. Was Muppets (the show) ever part of the backstage magic tour? I remember in 1990 it was a separate show to the tour. Glad I got it on video!! I`d LOVE the Cronkite/Williams and Eisner/Mickey fillms on tape or on the net.....
