Donald's reaction is absolutely priceless, this is such a nice video.
The interaction with the Mad Hatter was so damned charming, I loved that.
The Mad Hatter + Alice's job must be hard as shit. All the other characters don't have to deal with the voice, dialogue, or facial expression parts because of the masks
Oh man. The people in the costumes must be big fans of the characters.

I went to Disneyland Paris and it must have been even harder there, the Mad Hatter has to be able to speak fluently in English [I]and[/I] French, so it's a whole additional layer (though I did note that they didn't do an impersonation of the voice from the animated film, it might have been trying to sound like the Tim Burton version or just the actor's own accent).
This dude's brilliant.
I can only imagine the post-work conversations they had. Must have made their day.
Now that is really enjoyable to watch. It made me even laugh and smile.
I sometimes even wonder how long it took to learn doing impressions.
This was so cute. I wanna go to Disney with this guy.
Disney could probably save a fuck ton of money by just hiring this guy.
dudes in those suits scare me still
i'd run away from people in costume as a kid, i have good intuition

They're given a ton of training to act like the characters even though they don't do voices like human characters do. They're still technically actors.
Disney puts a lot of effort into their parks and aren't going to have some joe shmoe dressed as their characters.
Man, Donald was flipping the fuck out! :v:
Yeah Walt Disney was pretty OCD about Mascots actors knowing their shit.
He even went so far to build Disney World on a series of tunnels because actors moving into the wrong areas would break peoples immersion.
That video started off a little cringy because of the Pooh one, but man did I end up loving it
So I went to Disney World a few months ago, and managed to see Tigger just walking to where people could see him, without a crowd around him, so I yelled "HEY LOOK GUYS IT'S TONY THE TIGER".
He stared at me intensely for about 30 seconds and motioned violently at the exit. Holy shit my sides were killing me for the rest of the day from laughing so hard.
The reaction of each actor is super cute, i mean i guess that they really get into character before stepping into the costume with the exception of the voice so if you were just doing your job and you suddenly heard the voice of your character it would come as a bit of a (positive!) shock.
The mad hatter and Donald were the best reactions :v:

The Mad Hatter definitely played it off the best imo, prolly because of the fact that he could actually speak somewhat normally. Either way, he stood out from the other performers to me in how he was able to keep character and extend that suspension of disbelief that much further, even in the face of something as unexpected as this. Hats off to him.
This is the most heart warming thing I have seen in ages.
this video is adorable as fuck but god damn i found it hard to watch the mad hatter part for some reason
alice was hella cute tho
Really enjoyed Mad Hatter part.
Wow his Donald impression is good. Shame it was kind of hard to hear because of how it was recorded.
His impressions are amazingly spot-on.
This is a really cute video, by the way. :smile:

I remember reading about this a couple years ago and it was really interesting. There's youtube videos out there about it.
Disney calls the tunnels, the "utilidors".

What the fuck is up with that video quality?
alice was so very close to corpsing i think

it's interlaced as opposed to progressive

:angry:
I used to be able to (haven't tried in years) do a 10/10 Stitch impression. I did the exact same thing in this video to a person in costume and it went down like how Donald reacted. I bet I could do the voice again if I gave it enough practice.
