I was in Times Square on 10/1 and saw a little tiny bit of the filming of this (right around 8am). It looked like they stopped the cameras about a moment or two after I arrived, but Mickey and Minnie were still there taking a few photos, then the handlers walked them into a tent. I tried to hang around to see if anything else would happen but they weren't allowing anyone to stay around and watch

Did anyone else at Intercot enter this contest? It took about an hour for our "2.15 minute application video" to down load via DSL. Just wondering if the average person thought the application process was a little time consuming for entering this contest? Oh well, it was fun making the video at least and it taught my niece and nephew some of the process of being a "home movie" director. Looking forward to seeing some of the finalist's videos, who knows maybe we have a shot at a day in paradise! Well it's fun to dream, anyway.
