The Silly and Mischievous Adventures of Four Crazy Canucks - FINAL THOUGHTS 2/1

Oooh, boy. Great update! Line cutters suck.

They sure do. At least they were all one family so it didn't cause us to wait any longer than we would have before they cut.

Lessa, I was astounded that I couldn't view the video, I think they need to do something so that the volunteers can see themselves

Oh No!!

Once the pre-show for the Backlot Tour was over we hung around the viewing area waiting for Alek and Erich to get back while the rest of the crowd moved onto the trolley tour. Alek and Erich joined up with us a few minutes later, apparently they had some problems getting their boots off. This is also when they told us that if they wanted to see their performance video they would have to come back to Hollywood Studios the next day and ask at Guest Services. That was so not going to happen so it is a good think I thought to video tape it. We moved on to wait for the next tour.

Here are my pictures from the tour

The cages from Pirates of the Caribbean

Steam Roller from Who Framed Roger Rabbit

Lights, Motors, Action was performing its last show of the day so we got to see the cars zooming back and forth.

Spaceship from Flight of the Navigator

At one point on the tour we saw a golf cart zoom by backstage with June? from Playhouse Disney standing on the back of it. For some reason this struck us as hilarious. Alek turned to me and said "Did I just see what I think I saw?" It happened so quickly that we didn't even get a chance to snap a picture so you will just have to trust me that it was a hilarious site to see.

When we got off the tour we were sort of at a loss for what to do next so we just sort of wandered and happened upon the Monsters Inc character meet and greet. They were going to be closing the line off in 10 minutes so we hopped in line while we still could.

There was this really mean and loud CM in there who kept yelling at people to stand in line right against the wall and to have their autograph books out and ready. She was not very nice at all. She kept snapping "Next!" if the next family wasn't quick enough in getting up to the characters.

I was glad when we got out of there, that lady seriously needed to get kicked in the butt with some pixie dust.

Yikes scary CM encounter!! YUCK! you should have smiled sweetly at her and said "Thank you for making this SO magical for us, we greatly appreciate it." Remind her to be NICE!!!

Is Disney having a staffing problem that they are not hiring just NICE CM's ??Great picture of you bt the eye and next to 3 monsters OOPs 2 of them are your brothers !!

 

[FauntleroyFAN07]

that is stupid about the video, it would not cost them anything to have it on a little tv in the staging area where they change, they could even charge like 5 bucks for a copy and i am sure that people would buy it.

silly disney missing outon a chance to make more money.

Yep, I am so glad that I taped the video and not just their performance.

Mike and Sully AUtographed??? When we took the kids they told us no autographs, just pictures

Maybe she was yelling about how they don't autograph. I just know she was yelling stuff out about autograph books and being nasty.

She probably would have blown up at me for holding up the line but talking to her.

You know we have encountered some really awesome CM's and some not so awesome. Luckily for us the not so awesome CM's have been few and far between.

that is stupid about the video, it would not cost them anything to have it on a little tv in the staging area where they change, they could even charge like 5 bucks for a copy and i am sure that people would buy it.

silly disney missing outon a chance to make more money.

I totally agree Dan, I bet lots of the people would but a DVD of themselves in the show.

Great pics!

Thanks CE

I know seriously, if you can't handle people you should not be working in a role that requires you to interact with the public.

We used to watch Flight of the Navigator all the time as kids. We had it on beta tape.

Great update Lessa

I agree, don't get a job as a CM if you can't handle dealing with the public all day.

 

[Goofyluver]

I STILL have my beta.

 

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

I STILL have my beta.

We still have our beta player too. Erich use to have it in his room until he got a VCR/DVD player combo two years ago. Now I think it is collecting dust in our storage room.

Rude CMs can really bring a person down. It sounds like you didn't let it get to you though!

Well she wasn't rude to us directly she was just nasty to everybody in general. We were actually sort of laughing at her and shaking our heads.

Hey girl! I've been reading along just been really bad about the comments. Love the pictures of the block party bash haha you got some great butt pictures!

Thats great that they did the backlot preshow. I would of been suprised if they didn't. It seems so right up their alley.

Sorry the CM at the meet and greet was so crummy. Hopefully she was just having a bad day and isnt like that all the time. I love that picture of you guys with Mike and Sulley I think thats my favorite so far. You should get it framed!
