What DL really needs is a video store that offers each and every disney production on which a ride is based or is derivative of a ride. They have a Peter Pan ride, they should hav the movie available for purchase. Roger Rabbit. Alice in Wonderland. Mr. Toad. Pinochio. Songs of the South. Even Davy Crockett and The Silly Symphonty cartoons they talk about in the canal boats. The ride experience is greatly enhanced when there's a known story line one can associate it with, and I'm afraid trying to explain who Mr. Toad is to a 7 year old only goes so far. Some of these stories are easily available andsome are 'e-bay' available, but Disney should make them available full time to patrons. It wouldn't need alarge retail space, could easily replace one of the cookie cutter general souvenir stores up front, and IMO would make a mint.

Originally Posted By DlandDug The Disney catalogue is made available based on a complicated marketing plan that is controlled rather tightly by the Studio. It is highly unlikely that they would circumvent this to accommodate a desire on the part of the theme parks. At least one title-- Song of the South-- has been unavailable for years. Others are so obscure that it seems unlikely they would sell. (The Matterhorn, for example, is "based" on the film Third Man on the Mountain.) The 20th Century Music Shop on Main Street in Disneyland has a system that burns CDs of a number of audio rarities from the Disney catalogue. The shop also carries a large selection of Disney videos. The Disney Studio Store next to the El Capitan Theater on Hollywood Boulevard also has a large selection. And, as noted, any titles currently in release are available on line. You can also find any number that are unavailable on the secondary market.
