Does anyone remember Inside The Magic: The Special Effects Walking Tour when The Hollywood Studios first opened as The Disney MGM Studios?
It had volunteer kids ride a HUGE bee from Honey I Shrunk The Kids in front of a blue screen and their performance was reviewed by Siskel and Ebert.
You would walk through a skywalk above the soundstages and actually see production being filmed on them through one-way glass - including Star Search and The Mickey Mouse Club.
Then there was a short movie starring Bette Midler called The Lottery where she chased a floating winning lottery ticket through New York Street. You'd also see props from the same movie.
Toy Story Mania now occupies the soundstage buildings where Inside The Magic was originally.
This attraction never seems to get mentioned much on these boards.
