The Imagineering Story S01E02 - What Would Walt Do?
Summary:
Roy O. Disney steps up to fulfill his brother's wish, and another Magic Kingdom emerges. Walt Disney World becomes WED's' first foray into urban and master site planning. The long hours, stress, and hard work lead to Roy's premature passing. A second generation of young designers and engineers and a new CEO, Card Walker, carry out the last and most ambitious of Walt's ideas – EPCOT, striving for a higher purpose beyond entertainment. Another success follows with Disney's first international park, Tokyo Disneyland. Both big projects are completed at the same time. With no future theme parks being developed, WED lays off most of its staff, and Card Walker retires. A hostile takeover attempt by a corporate raider threatens to break the Disney company, and its beloved parks, into pieces, and morale hits an all-time low. Will WED survive? Some flashing lights sequences or patterns may affect photosensitive viewers.
