Was there an ANNOUNCEMENT after the Super Bowl?

[laceemouse]

The "I'm going to Disney World" wasn't shown after the game because the game was aired on CBS. It hasn't been shown post-game since the game left ABC

In the commercial, it sure LOOKS like it is at the end of the game, all kinds of hoop-la going on behind them, etc.

I just don't know where to put this and I don't think it needs it's own thread. It is after the super bowl and it is an announcement!

FEB 5TH But it might be a few days older. The use of the world carnival should really bother us all here.

Disney adding Toy Story attraction Mon Feb 5, 4:12 PM ET



LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - Walt Disney Co. is rewiring the old carnival midway concept with Buzz Lightyear and Mr. Potato Head in a new attraction, and turning singer Beyonce Knowles into Alice In Wonderland in an ad campaign shot by Annie Leibovitz, executives said.


The Leibovitz images also feature soccer player David Beckham as Prince Phillip from "Sleeping Beauty," Scarlett Johansson as slipperless Cinderella descending the castle steps, and a swirling teacup scene for three: Oliver Platt from "The West Wing" as the Mad Hatter, and Lyle Lovett as the March Hare joining Beyonce as Alice.

Toy Story Mania will open at Orlando's Disney-MGM Studios and Disney's California Adventure in 2008. In it, guests will don 3D glasses and ride eight to a car through different stations in a high-tech turn on old carnival games. The ring toss and darts will feature characters from "Toy Story," and players will toss "virtual" rings, eggs and pies at targets using a toy cannon with a string and lever.

The announcements culminated a three-day press event for Disney's "Year of a Million Dreams" campaign, which awards unsuspecting park guests at random with prizes ranging from sheriff for a day at Frontierland to a night's stay in Cinderella's castle.

The Walt Disney Co. hopes the carnival concept of the Toy Story attraction will resonate with parents and older guests, while the video game component will draw in kids. Players will be tracked by computers that automatically raise or lower the difficulty level based on skill.

Tom Fitzgerald, senior creative executive with Walt Disney Imagineering, said the immersive game would even simulate "wind in your face, water spray, maybe even smell."

The Leibovitz photos, taken in December, were the first in a series featuring additional, to-be-named celebrities. Disney intends to use them in ads for its "Dreams" contest running in magazines Vanity Fair, W, GQ, The New Yorker and others.

"Something this big is like making a small film," Leibovitz said of the images, which are both dark and whimsical.

She said it was by accident, however, the celebrities featured have been recently in the news — Beckham for signing an American soccer contract and Beyonce for her role in "Dreamgirls," which just received a leading eight Oscar nominations.



It's like they are TRYING to trick you right to your face!

VERY cool! This deserves it's own thread!

Shortly after Super Bowl XLI in February 2007, Disney began airing commercials featuring Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy and running back Dominic Rhodes saying in unison, "We're going to Disneyland!" and "We're going to Disneyworld!" The endorsements by Dungy and Rhodes were filmed just minutes after the Colts won the Super Bowl, and the on-field celebration can be seen in the background of the shot.

I thought I read where they weren't going to do the end-of-game plug anymore.

I was at that game and the only place I wanted to go was someplace DRY!
It was odd- the first Florida trip in my life that didn't involve going to see Mickey.
