The Magic of Christmas at Disneyland (1992)

This promotional video depicts Disneyland at Christmas time in the early 1990's. This was just before PC culture swept through the place and forever altered the Magic Kingdom and its policies from what Walt Disney and his brother Roy had created. This VHS was sold in the parks as a souvenir to guests at the time.

The premise of the program is Mickey Mouse and his friends are preparing Disneyland for Christmastime. Most of the content focuses on the Disneyland Christmas parade and the stage show Mickey's Nutcracker. There's a brief segment on the Candlelight Processional as well. In this video we also see how Roger Rabbit had been integrated into Mickey's gang but the shared copyright with Amblin would end this by the time Dreamworks was founded and the character would fade into fad obscurity rather than forced evergreen. Merlin from the Sword in the Stone is also a main figure in this program. He lights the Disneyland Christmas tree.

This is am interesting historical document on what Disneyland was like before PC culture took over. The Walt Disney Company and America was like a whole different country back then.

Original release date October 1992
