Perhaps most significantly, archival recordings of Clarence Nash (the original voice of Donald Duck) were used in the new film <ref> https://books.google.com/books?id=nEGaj75GhXcC&pg=PT224&lpg=PT224&dq=Clarence+Nash+Mickey%27s+Philharmagic&source=bl&ots=Dq7dKDoaVd&sig=mGc87khrSLrv2ZFUtHzV2r552mg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjEvOC4pv_JAhVMq4MKHSGOAM0Q6AEISjAI#v=onepage&q=Clarence%20Nash%20Mickey's%20Philharmagic&f=false </ref>. When discussing the choice of Donald Duck as the attraction's main character, Scribner noted that Donald was chosen because he showed his emotional extremes quickly <ref name="cgw"/>.
