Thanks everyone for your answers. The Sound of Music isn't a Disney film, but I read that Walt did like that film a lot. Julie Andrews did it a year after doing Disney's Mary Poppins, for which she won an Academy Award. In between those two, she filmed The Americanization of Emily, in which she is also excellent even without signing a note.

Favorite Imagineer: Walt Disney
10 best current attractions: Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, Indiana Jones, Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Carribbean, Thunder Mountain, Peter Pan's Flight, Alice In Wonderland, Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage, Disneyland Railroad. 5 best former attractions: The Peoplemover, The Skyway to Tomorrowland/Fantasyland, Captain EO, Country Bear Jamboree Attraction you have been on more than any other: Pirates of the Carribbean, I ride Space Mountain a lot, but I didn't start riding that as a kid, so I had to take that into account. Attraction you have never been on: Goofy's Bounce House, Miss Daisy, and Minnie's House, some of these are height/age restrictive, hence the reason for it. Current attraction you will never go on again: Honey, I Shrunk the Audience. I've already been on it twice, did not impress. Shortest average wait: Splash Mountain, instant boarding, no line. Longest average wait: Splash Mountain, 4 hours when it first opened. Best attraction queue: Haunted Mansion, the regular version. Best attraction pre-show: Again, Haunted Mansion. Best attraction storyline: Haunted Mansion, for this ride not being top on my favorite list, I sure do find myself intrigued by it, that's for sure! Best attraction music: Mad Tea Party, simple I know but I can listen to it over and over again and I get that "Disneyland" vibel.
