Video Documentary of Disney Enchanted Tiki Room

Pages: 1 2 replies

Aloha folks,

Stumbled across a listing for a soon-to-be-released documentary DVD on the making of the Disney Enchanted Tiki Room.

There's actually a preview of the DVD available here: http://www.extinct-attractions-club.com/new_previews.html -- it's the first video on that page.

Watch the Disney animatronics sing "Hawaiian War Chant!" ... and hear one of the Disney engineers say that the Tiki Room was originally designed for patrions to drink tea (!) in.....

Pretty neat stuff. Even has Walt on the talking birds - they had to coin a new phrase for the technology............

Sorry if this is already known to you all. I did a search on TC but didn't come up with anything. Enjoy!

Nice. Thanks!

There is an advertisement for this DVD in the Summer issue of Tiki Magazine. Check the top of page 24.
