Is This a Secret Disneyland Hidden Tribute? Exploring History and Holiday Magic!

[@biancar481]

I 100% feel that way during the holidays. I actually look foward to January.

[@scootsmcgee77]

All that matters is Justin doing Disneyland episodes. ❤❤❤

[@ChristopherHovis]

Happy holidays ❤ everyone

[@chiconian49]

I was there in 1960 for my 11th Birthday. My dad had to drive 500 miles.

[@MikeM-xb2sk]

So many Disneyland videos. This is like old school random land!!!

[@travissapp4961]

Thanks for the videos Justin scarred have fun the last time I went to Disneyland was in 2012 but I drive by it every Thursday from home

[@denisedarnell1641]

Small World Lite Brite? I can’t unsee it now 😂😂😂

[@jerryzimmerman5769]

Merry Christmas!

[@BHBOB]

Justin, I'm happy to see you got to use one of my photos in this video. I called my wife over... "Look, look" Merry Christmas my friend! 🎅🌲

[@eth39232]

I am glad to have two copies of Song of the South on DVD, and I saw it at the theater in the early 70's.

[@imthewalrus2379]

Actually, they did do releases of all of the Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy and Pluto cartoons back in the early 2000's. They were part of a series call "Walt Disney Treasures." The issue is that they were limited edition sets and, because of that, go for really high prices on the second hand market now. But they had four volumes of Mickey (2 Black & White and 2 Color cartoons), 1 of Goofy, five volumes of Donald and two of Pluto. They also had sets devoted to the first week of the original Mickey Mouse Club, the first "season" of Spin and Marty, the Annette Mickey Mouse Club serial, Davy Crocket, 2 Disneyland-based sets, 1 set devoted to Behind the Scenes of the Walt Disney studio from Walt's days, Davy Crockett, and both seasons of Zorro amongst some others. The great thing about the cartoon sets is that they were presented as originally issued, including things that are considered non-PC today. Great sets that were curated with the help of Leonard Maltin.

Cool. You got to use the back hallway to by pass Main Street . As always love to see your videos.

[@catherinetozzi8056]

Enjoyed my Stroll thru the park with you, and hearing little tales I never knew or heard. Hope you found Ally. 🌲🙏🏽❤️

[@rob2557]

This time of year is always depressing for me too, it's not because of the weather or the lack of sunlight, it's because of past bad memories, I lost my Great grandmother and my brother on and after Christmas, but it's also because my family is mostly broke financially around this time too so everything just bums me out

[@richardnasluchacz3227]

There were credit cards and travelers’ checks before ATM cards. And there was a bank on Main Street. You’re making me feel old knowing this stuff, haha

[@karenleemallonee684]

Yup, me too! 😄

[@AtticHaunt321]

I remember traveler’s checks! As a kid I thought they were so cool. We got ours from AAA and they were much more decorated than a normal check.

[@ilovegodzilla]

Travelers checks were a thing.

[@DannyD714]

how about this for a future randomland contest: "win a day at disneyland hanging out with justin scarred"? whenever i watch one of these videos of him just wandering around the park it makes me wish i could tag along. i lost my best friend and disneyland buddy jim 10 years ago,and since then going to the park just hasn't been the same. i think a day there with justin would be the next best thing.

[@jokeal3613]

We used to use travelers checks.

[@Michaeland]

All Disney productions? “Keeping Walt In Disney” helps as they present a lot of delightful deep cuts. … educational films, military training, “I’m No Fool”, etc, ETC. ‘Internet Archive’ has films Disney has banned, like Song or the south, So Dear to my Heart and more. ENJOY

[@janetjones2919]

In 1971 I went to visit my sister whose husband was in the service in El Toro. My dad give me a little cash and then a bunch of travelers checks

[@ItzAdrian02]

19:54 santa before this year was meeting in Critter Country. He had a little house shack occupying poohs thoughtful spot

[@mgtrumpet]

Horace Horsecollar does not get enough attention!

[@rayharris9160]

Justin they had laser discs and also before that they had a weird other version that was like a laser disc but was different DJ Ray 🤠

[@danjordan4583]

Watching Justin look up the year the ATM was invented is perfect. He should teach at least one of his vlogging friends how to woo- ahem, do that.

[@OshPopham]

The castle is small but mighty!

[@Rose258V]

Loved this vlog!🎉Thx 😊

[@lesliechu8879]

Been to Disneyland lots of times way back!!🎄🎄🎄 By Thor's Snow Wraith!🎄🎄🎄

[@karenleemallonee684]

You're the coolest, man!! 👍👍

[@Af.2708]

Thank you for this wonderful content, Justin. You will always be the GOAT.

[@ryanvance5554]

21:37 had me cracking up lol

[@ShadowVFX]

Light brite, light brite, turn on the magic of colored lights!

[@michaelfritsinger6871]

Between the ranch and now, santa was in Critter County. Also, the carriage as you go into star wars land was a gift from Walter Knott.

[@tonyawalters6751]

ATM in 1967!!?? Well if true, there maybe have been 1 in some random area because we didn't see ATM 's till early 80's.

[@goofyrulez7914]

A real artist knows when to say "That's done.".

[@theatricallyjim]

Here's what I learned as a Cast Member re: the size of the castle: Yes, the budget called for a scale down, but also: It was intended to be "inside the berm", you couldn't see it until you were past the turnstiles and looking down Main Street. It was the discovery that Walt wanted. Then it was the "weenie" that drew people towards the hub. Then, in 1959, they built the Matterhorn, which became a "weenie" for the whole park from EVERYWHERE around Anaheim. When they built WDW, they scaled up the castle so it WOULD be visible from outside the gates. Since they owned all the land surrounding (and Orlando is flat), their castle serves as a "weenie" for people approaching Magic Kingdom. Who knows if its true; but when I tell people they nod and say "makes sense" so.... (Also, they told us this as CMs, so there's that too, I guess.....) Plus the trees behind it are HUGE now, throwing off the forced perspective. Those trees were much shorter when I was a child (1970s-80s)

[@richardharden4437]

Thank you! Marice's Treats, I'm not a Starbucks fan either. I like just a simple cup of Joe; when I order a cup, they look at me like I grew a third eye. I'll remember the place when we go next year for the 70th. I also live in So. Cal. San Diego, not used to the gray and short days. I also get into a little bit of a funk during the holidays. My girls are in their thirties; no grandkids yet. Need grandkids for the holidays to be special. Can't wait to take them to Disneyland. I remember the Mine Train Ride Through Nature's Wonderland, I'm 63; man I'm old.🤣😂🤣 Happy Holidays, Justin!🎄

[@karenleemallonee684]

I have Grandkids but they live in other states.

[@richardharden4437]

@@karenleemallonee684 I hope you see them now and again.

[@davevan8864]

Always happy to see new content from you Sir!!! I caught your wink wink nod nod........ Take care...Dave

[@starleet2001]

The building codes in Anaheim Orange County in 1954 did not allow for a structure taller than Sleeping Beauty Castle. He built it as high as he could.

[@Supernova-hq9hu]

They always have that balloon salesman. But you never see any kids walking around with a balloon.

[@zeroconsequences]

Haha, Justin, just tell any cafe "Drip coffee please." That's a sure fire way of just getting a regular oooolllld cup of black joe.

[@DanielGarcia-xn2fz]

May god bless you and your family.

[@rayharris9160]

Hey Justin a good old Disney movie is three on a mountain DJ Ray 🤠

[@nicesky360]

I accidently exited the video before the end. Oops I thought...I'd better watch till the end. How else will you get home to schleep well? Merry Christmas 😄🎄

[@pault5557]

I absolutely LOVE these videos with Justin’s stream of consciousness random facts!!! It’s pure ADHD JOY!!!🙌❤️🤪

[@ChikistheToyChihuahua]

I miss 80s Disney

[@Disney-art-craft-fan]

Santa was always over by the exit to Winnie the poo

[@karenleemallonee684]

[@lisaharris8165]

Travelers Checks- that’s how they were able to travel

[@Masterlocster69]

25:37 I thought when you were a kid, you used to just tie knots as your only hobby? 😂

[@IAMTEF1]

i think thats a pretty average size castle. most will say its pretty big. right?

[@Masterlocster69]

25:51 did you ever ralph at Ralph’s?!

[@lexif501]

I think they also used travelers checks back in the day

[@joelsalmons5627]

The “Song of the South” video is probably in European PAL Format.

[@baseballwarrior11]

you should Collab with Matt McCarthy to watch that old SOTS VHS!

[@paulheadley6584]

Disneyland castle is so beautiful at Christmas. I really miss the Dream lights on ours in Disney world. Nothing special here. Everone does ptojection shows. Disneyland is beautiful everywhere.

[@stevebrown3958]

My parents took me to see hot lead and cold feet in the cinema at the mall when it was released.

[@fayefrankenheim8188]

People brought travelers checks from their bank, not cash.

[@juanchifla]

First!t

[@DanielGarcia-xn2fz]

Hey bro I just want to say I appreciate you sharing how difficult life is financially and difficult life really is. Iam in the same wagon and I always try to stay positive like you. Meant a lot to me. Thank you brotha.

[@BruceBergman]

You went to the BANK of America at the town square and cashed a check for money for the day. DUH!! 🙄

[@BruceBergman]

There is U-matic extinct cassettes like VHS and Beta. And Quarter inch reel to reel. 17:45

[@theorydude]

Yeah, I wondered if his friend have him an old 3/4" tape.

[@memphissommers4171]

What a shame these Disney vloggers ALWAYS fail to mention the passing of our beloved Walt Disney. How ironic and how hypocritical. They glean money from his memory but rarely, if ever, mention his absence on the day he left us. December 5, 1901 - December 15, 1966. Shame on you, sir.
