Mouse Lounge -- Epsiode 019 -- January 7, 2007

(((HEADPHONES STRONGLY RECOMMENDED))) This week in the Mouse Lounge: A full docket of Disney News from our departments Entertainment, Theme Parks East, Theme Parks West, News from the Ships, and Business. Each week, in From the Vault we sample a clip from a classic Disney film, short, television or radio program, or Disneyland Record. This week we feature a new segment, Revisionist Disney. Fans of the show, The Wonderful World of Color may remember a classic cartoon within a 1962 episode called, Ducking Disaster with Donald Duck. The show featured Ludwig von Drake illustrating what can happen when you let emotion run away with your common sense. What fans of the series may not know is this segment is derived from a 1943 Academy Award nominated short short called Reason and Emotion. Back during WWII this cartoon had a completely different connotation, as emotion was largely thought to be the lynch pin through which Hitler could wield his evil influence. Join us in the Mouse Lounge as we compare the similarities and differences in the 1943 versus the 1962 audio tracks. I think youll then understand why this segment is called, Revisionist Disney. Logon to http://www.mouselounge.com/multimedia.html to follow along with the script. Each week we present a high definition ride-through from a Disney Park East and a Disney Park West. I do capture most live audio myself, but will give proper credit when its due. This week in Disney Parks West, we go to Disneys California Adventure and take in the High School Musical Pep Rally. From the Disney Family Museum, sit in on a conversation between Leonard Maltin and Diane Disney-Miller, Walts oldest daughter and learn about the future of the Disney Family Museum in San Francisco. From Disney Parks East: Since closed for an extensive refurb, we head over to World Showcase in Epcot and take a ride on the one attraction whose viral soundtrack just might be more annoying than its a small world, El Rio del Tiempo. Each week we feature a unique take on Disney music. On this podcast, take a ride on the Old Mark Twain for a second helping of Satchmo goodness from a 1962 episode of the Wonderful World of Color, Disneyland After Dark. Enjoy!
