The Disney channel has a 6-part documentary. Parts 1 and 2 cover some of this. (But not the recycle bins.) Some cool engineering, um, I mean imagineering.

Yeah the really interesting stuff is what they don't like to advertise.

In Florida, Disney actually has corporate control of two municipal incorporations aka actual cities.

They get to control who the half dozen or so residents are, and therefore control who the voters are.

Which besides complete zoning and land-use control, also gives them an amount of police and judicial power.

Disney World is allowed to build a nuclear reactor :)
