Disneyland 60th Anniversary Special

[Mike K]

So... is Star Wars Experience the name of the land?

Precisely my thoughts lol I was waiting for the big name reveal and then that was thrown out there at the end.

I grew up with the Disney Channel in the 1980's. As a kid, my favorite programming was the shows focused on the Parks, made for the 18-60 demo.

Since then, it's fair to say I've seen every Disney special since 1990. That was the 35th Anniversary on NBC staring Tony Danza. Then came the Michael Eisner WDW hosted specials as well as The Muppetts at WDW.

This special tonight is one of the BEST specials I have ever seen!

So at the end of this are they going to have the CM's come up on stage to say that their work has been cut due to Shanghai?

I don't know. What does Disney call him?

Whatever they call him, he didn't even talking about the parks.

You are just a bundle of joy, positivity and light today, aren't you?

This special....It's bad...real bad...I've seen better specials for Disney theme parks when they use the park as a backdrop for everything..Look at the 25th, 30th, 35th, 40th, & 45th DL Anniversaries and WDW's 15th anniversary specials..Much more enjoyable to watch

I was expecting them to give a name to the Star Wars areas as well.. I guess that's not happening unless there's something later.

I think it The Star Wars Expierence.

Wow.. sad how there is a lack of class that people in the audience for the Fantasia segment didn't know that there was a tag at the end and they applauded during a break in the orchestra's music...

I think it The Star Wars Expierence.

Harrison Ford said it... so it must be true....

I think it The Star Wars Expierence.

I really don't think so... If so, that's really lazy on Disney's part. I hope that's not the actual name.

Agreed. One of the biggest bombs was the medley of Little Mermaid, Aladdin and Mary Poppins... DVD was the only thing that saved that, and I thought it was classless that they didn't use the late Robin Williams version of Friend Like Me.

People need to understand that shows like this aren't for fans. This is a variety show celebrating the park's anniversary designed to boost ratings, not a Disneyland documentary.

I loved it and I pretty much enjoyed all the performances by all the artist.

Can't get the Applause app they keep pushing to work.

It only took 3 years and over $2 billion to get MDX to work sorta OK....give it time.

They should have just played the recording of Walt. Derek Hough just ruined it.

 

[FettFan]

Harrison Ford is nice and all....but I would have gotten Billy Dee Williams up there with him.

 

[RandomPrincess]

So this is how they got Elton to participate.

 

[TalkingHead]

They should have just played the recording of Walt. Derek Hough just ruined it.

I wasn't listening closely, but did he misquote the dedication?

I say we cut his head off. And shove it into a hatbox.

Now you're just digging for stuff to complain about.

Louis Prima is long dead. Should no one else sing I Wanna Be Like You?
