WDW Resort Information Channel - May 1992

  • Опубликовано: 30 мар 2020
  • This is just one of five WDW Resort Information channel videos that we will be releasing. We’ve gone ahead and cleaned up the luma/chroma alignment, reduced the noise and then ran it through the AI enhancement process. This runs nearly 1hr 30 minutes and will take to places that are now long gone, including Top of the World, Pleasure Island, River Country and more! This was recorded in May 1992 during the year-long 20th-anniversary celebration of WDW. Our very own How Bowers lugged a VCR to the resort, swapped out a few coax cables and viola, 28 years later we’ve resurrected his efforts!

    This is the snapshot in time of Disney World I would want to revisit most. Horizons, Journey Into Imagination, World of Motion, 20,000 Leagues, Toad, Dream Flight, and so so many more favorites that are no more.

    A wonderful era - wholesome and more innocent than today. My parents could never afford a holiday like this, however they did the next best thing and got one of those free 'mail order' promo tapes. Me and my sister practically wore the VHS out! It was very similar to this RUclips video.
    I usually refrain from the "back in my day" drones, but I really am glad that I was young during this era. Each successive generation will look on the next with dismay and confusion, nothing new there. Life has changed so much over the last 30 years however, that children grow up today bombarded with media vying for their attention. To think that we could only watch cartoons at certain times of certain days is borderline alien, now.
    Many thanks for bringing back the memories.

      Tim L Back then, the only...viable way to capture this if you want to call it that would have been to take your VCR plus the right cables needed to run between the VCR and the TV down to Disney with you. Though a few folks did it, that just wasn’t realistic for most of us since the VHS VCRs weren’t exactly small and compact. Then there was the whole issue over doing it without getting caught. I really am glad someone did it for us though. I had thought of it at the time but there was no chance in hell my folks would have let me take the family VCR down there to do this 😂

  • @christinacope562
    @christinacope562 4 года назад +8

    Thanks so much to your team, this may have been my favorite trip to WDW. So much is now gone from the 20 Magical ears Celebration, so many changes and not all for the better. I sometimes stand and look around to just reminiscence about what was.
    Each trip these past 5 years as the crowds increased, I feel like the magic is no longer appreciated. It's hard for me to even explain to my family but I feel people now go to check off their bucket list never acknowledging the details placed by Imagineering. And that's surely noticed by the executives(2 Bobs) so that the castmembers hours and hours of operation were cut. Quality and cleanliness has declined as more rooms were added to cram more guests into each park(especially the ever expanding DVC). And of course the price just kept climbing way faster than inflation " to decrease the crowds" but that didn't work out, the Magic Kingdom looks abused in 2019 and more rides broke down. The additional ticket events kept getting increased nights added plus more people allowed to purchase tickets. That left fewer hours available to a person who purchased a 4 day park ticket without PH option for their trip. The quality of food and merchandise has declined as the price increased. And it's way more affordable to stay off property now than it was, perks aren't much anymore. I have no desire for extra magic hours being in the morning(i miss the Magic Kingdom's Good Morning opening) and I am not getting up to be in SWGE @4 am! Gone are the days of a late night in the Magic Kingdom, arriving in your room @2am, never will there be a 24 hour event again.
    And now with CoVid, how the parks operate again when they reopen is anybody's guess but it will never be the same. I had hoped this May to book 1 last great trip for the 50th on 1 October, 2021 but now I just don't know.
    Sorry for writing a mini-book here but this video made me more nostalgic than any. Thanks again.
