I saw the new Vacation Planning Video for 100 Years of Magic (this is not the same video on sale in the parks) and had a few musings about it...
1. In the Magic Kingdom section they mention that you can see the "attractions that Walt himself planned". They show it's a small world, the Tiki Room, Hall of Presidents, etc... but no Carousel of Progress. It seems the CoP has been snubbed for this celebration.
2. Spaceship Earth appears in a number of scenes but all the shots are pre-2000. No red ribbon lettering on top. I don't think there is any meaning to this, I just found it kind of odd.
3. There are two shots with Mark IV monorails instead of the current Mark VI monorails. Why did they use ten year old footage? Who knows.
If you want a copy of this video for yourself, call up the Disney vacation line and tell them you are thinking about planning a trip, they will probably send you one.
