At this point, Escape from Tomorrow is better known for its surreptitious production than its story. Filmed in secret at Walt Disney World in Florida, the film is billed as a parody of the make-believe story Disney wants its customers to see.
But then, there's the film itself. Despite being fired that morning, Jim wants to have one good final day at the parks with his family. Instead, he and his wife bicker and argue, and they take turns with their son and daughter separately, trying to keep either of them happy. But then there's the two Parisian girls that Jim follows. I don't think this was supposed to be an existential journey, so I keep trying to piece the parts together to make an arcing plot. Exactly how are the scientists under the Spaceship Earth related to the aging witch with her mesmerizing necklace? Was Jim selected as a child for this ultimate fate, and has his son now been selected to share the fate as well?
