New York Times correction of the day: An article on Friday about the building of an animatronic figure [right] of President Obama for the Hall of Presidents exhibit at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla., referred incorrectly to Walt Disney’s role in the exhibit. While he supervised some of the early development, the exhibit did not open in 1971 “under his direct supervision.” (He died in 1966.)

For the record, Disney is entombed in a family vault at Forest Lawn in Glendale...
"Obama puppet" is redundant.
ReplyDeleteI thought that NYT wrote that Disney, foreseeing the historic election in 2008, had the now-named Obama puppet on the drawing board.

I'm wondering if the Obama animatroic model can have more annimation to it than the real Obama? They could have saved money by just putting in moving lips and a head that swevels between teleprompters.
