Captain Eeyore (1987) (Disney Parks Cast Member Captain EO Parody)
Captain Eeyore is a legendary cast member parody of the Captain EO attraction film. Cast member films had become a tradition starting in the late 70's and would be shown at employee events for amusement. It was filmed off hours in the tunnels beneath Walt Disney World using the Walt Disney characters in the place of characters in the original film. This was also a satire of what was felt was the dehumanizing conditions of Eisner's era Disney vs Walt Disney's Disney. Amazingly, Disney management was totally unaware this was going on and it became a form of resistance to the policies of the time. For example, Eisner banned the Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum characters from the parks claiming he thought they looked like down-syndrome children. (This is even referenced in the dialog.) They feature prominently in the film.
When this was produced, it was a time of transition between when Disney was run as a family company vs the global conglomerate it was becoming. It's filled with inside references galore and an important part of Eisner era Disney history. Evidently when Eisner found out about Captain Eeyore, cast member videos ceased being allowed.
