Title: Naughty Mickey!
Post by: Martyng on October 12, 2006, 09:21:37 AM
Trust the Sun Newpaper to come up with a story like this! Not really the best image to give out of a family park.

Yeah i thought it was funny to, just sad that they had to make it sound so seedy. There only having a laugh (probably hyping themselves up before going out and greeting everyone), but thats the Sun Newspaper for you. They will turn anything into a story.

For me it`s also very funny  :lol:

Newspapers are always looking for something "strange" to write about...

BTW you wouldn`t believe in things that are going on hospitals during the surgeries  :roll:

I just hope no characters get sacked for this. I'd hate to see Mickey and Minnie in there local job center

Hmmm - who bets that goofy and snowman aren't at work today? :lol:

It doesn't actually bother me the performers mess around like that, it bothers me more that some idiot decided to film it and put it online.  Strange there's a snowman actually, must be all the way from last christmas?  You can also see Chip and Dale and Minnie are trying to avoid the others, and the minders are trying to distract them a bit.

Either way, considering most of the Sun's audience, it'll probably actually make more people want to go to DLRP. :twisted:

Well it seems rather random, because they say DLRP, but DLRP has not had snowmen for years :? , in the early years they had them in the Christmas Parade, but now all that I can see is DLR, WDW and TDL have snowmen.  Also snowmen hardly October, unless say they were going out to a rehersal.  But over all funny, and typical for the rather stupid newspaper the Sun is :lol: .

I've seen the video on YouTube, they were speaking French, so it is in fact at DLRP.

Yeah didn't point out very well my point :lol: , I mean't it must be old footage then if it includes snowmen.

Where was the footage filmed?  It looks like a fairly posh corridor, when I thought most of DLRP backstage is kinda bare.

Le Noel de Mickey perhaps?

It was filmed outside my bedroom, Minnie and I have been seeing each other behind Mickey's back  :twisted:

LOL!

They showed the video on the news here... Can't believe that DLRP legal was informed about the video a couple of days ago, but still nothing was done to remove the video.   :roll:

Shame it was on the news, and you're right that Disney have more than enough legal muscle to get the video removed.

Luckily, there aren't *that* many articles showing up on Google News yet:

When I worked for WDW, it was instant dismissal if any photo's were taken back stage. Also no one was allowed to see a character "under dressed" (without the head piece on) as it was refered to. I remember the door being slammed in Michael Eisner's face as he opened it because the character was getting dressed and even he wasn't allowed to see that! They must of loosened up for them not to take legal action over this! My first day in Florida WDW held a press meeting and rolled out Hewie, Dewie and Louie, with Donald & Dasiy to "complain" how hurt Donlads nephews were at suggestions in the press they they were the bastard off spring of Daisy & Donald! Thats how protective they were!

Quote from: "Baloo"Where was the footage filmed?  It looks like a fairly posh corridor, when I thought most of DLRP backstage is kinda bare.

Apparently this footage was filmed back last Christmas Day or Eve at the Hotel New York just before the special Christmas Character Buffet Lunch.

This is the only time this number of characters would be present at the Hotel New York, which has this exact backstage corridor.


I'm not going to comment on this video. But this is not a rare occurance backstage - when I was working at Cafe Mickey earlier in the year, pretty much the exact same thing happened - but obviously it wasn't recorded.

(Goofy wasn't involved that time though - I've got more sence :wink:   8) )

Its only people letting off steam - its no different to office gossip or joking around at work.  What is a shame is that a CM felt the need to video it and put it online.

I find that video rather hilarious to be honest.
Only having a bit of fun  :wink:

It seems like a joke but its been taken very seriously, photos cant be taken backstage anymore, and if caught it gets dealt with seriously!! I think had the video not been released and the Sun not publicised it, it would be ok, but it has! I dont like the fact that people can now see what can happen backstage, it ruins the Magic of Disney. Thats just my opinion!
