"Tomorrow Land" or "Tomorrowland"?

Here's a goofy question... is the title of the Treasures set "Tomorrow Land" (2 words) or "Tomorrowland" (1 word). Obviously, if you lean towards the theme park side of things, 1 word makes sense. However, I've seen reviewers go both ways.
Anyone have a guess?

My opinion would be that it is one word.

One word - all the original lands in Disneyland were. It always started that way at the beginning of the Disneyland TV program.(Now I have gone and dated myself)

Well, according to the cover artwork on the tin, it is 2 words.<p align="center"><img border="0" src="

I say one word, as far as the theme park goes, anyways. Not positive, though.
One Word - 3 votes
Two Words - 2 votes
I guess we haven't helped much, huh? lol

I'd say one word. The box set has places where it is one word and two words on it though....so maybe pick the one you like?

Oh, I wasn't really voting for 1 word. I just said that according to the tin it was 2 words. But I think the tin is wrong, it should be just 1 word

Then it's now One Word - 4, and Two Words - 1.

I just think that if it was one word, the font would have been smaller and it would have been all one word...same with on the tin and binding.

You definitely have a point, there. That could also just be for stylistic purposes, though. Hopefully someone will come along who knows for sure, and they can settle this for us.

(I didn't mean to single you out, sorry if I did!!)

Or... whoever was in charge of the tin made a big mistake. Tomorrowland is a place, a noun, and not a real word found in the dictionary. It's something that Disney created, and he created it as 1 word.

Walt Disney Treasures - Tomorrowland: Disney in Space and Beyond (2003)
That is how Amazon has it posted. Hmmmm.

Thanks, DisneyQuack. I guess that settles it, then.

I think that checking the side of the paper band that enwraps the tin would answer the question.

(I can't check it myself because my DVDs are only going to arrive this Saturday)

The paperband lists it as one word. So there's a vote for that. I don't know if I'd consider Amazon the ultimate source, but it's good to know what they think.
Disney's official listing on their website uses both forms. On the overview page, it's one word:

On the detail page, it's two words:

That's what I thought. One word. Well, that's settled.
