Remember That Time: Disney Ditched Its Wildest Rides?

We love all the new Disney attractions, but there are some classics that we can't experience anymore, at least not the way they used to be. Today we'll delve into five of them on rtt, so let's

remember

that

time

when Disney abandoned its

wildest

version.

rides

, oh sorry wait, you thought I wasn't going to use this captain eo it was a short film, a cosmic adventure in 3D, maybe even 4D, so you put on glasses and watched an intergalactic music video that was something like Star Wars. It felt like a cross between a chorus line and something else really cool to this day, the best Disney show, 3D and 4D show.

I've seen clips online. I never saw Captain eo in person. I saw Captain Yo on his return when he returned in the late 2000s early teens I saw Captain Eo many

time

s before he disappeared after he disappeared as a child Captain Eo himself is one of Michael Jackson The King of Pop Captain Eo came out in '86 two years after Michael Jackson had so much success with the thriller everyone wanted a new Michael album and he said he couldn't get Spielberg, so we got George Lucas to produce this directed by Francis Ford Coppola . Okay, Francis Ford Coppola is probably best known for The Godfather, he puts down the gun, takes the cannolis and so does Angelica. houston is there, can you imagine it's the 80s and they say we have michael jackson, we have angelica houston, I'm george lucas, this is my best friend, francis ford coppola and we're doing something, so the captain eo plot like me?

remember

michael jackson is in space he was like peter pan like in space captain eo and his ragtag band of misfits you want to call them jim henson muppets something that looks like a monkey butterfly is like a double alf and an elephant like a short elephant there's like a boss coming in don't screw this up again and Michael says yes sir I won't I promise I'll understand part of it he says uh hodar and hooter are really the star of the show I thought crash landing on a planet It's like a garbage planet like it looks like oscar's paradise from grumpy and then another part says hooter hooter i'm michael jackson i'm here to save the aliens he's going to see angelica houston why have you come to deliver a gift your highness to someone as beautiful as you you think I am beautiful beautiful inside your highness but without a key to unlock and that is my gift to you so let me see this gift not only see your highness but here we are to change the deepest from my body the deepest part of my soul we are here to change the world we are here to change the world we are here to save or change change although we are going to change the world oh no so they dance I am defending love and this is just another part From me, there's a lot of crotch thrusting, a lot of hip thrusting is involved and there are so many times where he goes and everyone does it with them and you can't believe they left Disneyland. that many stay and then he says who are they, who are you, so stupid, Hooter for president, can we let Hooter be president?

I imagine Captainina was quite expensive, it was the most expensive movie per minute at the time, $1.7 million. every minute for every minute, but it also looks like it cost 18 to make it look elegant. We've been talking for about a minute and I haven't won $1.7 million, so what's up with that? My question is: how many, how many? million for hip thrust i think captain eo is the best in the museum glad we had him when we did captain eo was a quick look at what it would have been like if michael jackson had started the movies michael jackson's space puppets honestly Like there were some parts of captain eo that were a more interesting space story than the star, we sang about the jar banks every day, I left a changed person like I was here to change the world and I could make a change and take me away my captain's jacket, that can be sweatier, I've always wanted to talk about this oh, it's so good, I'm putting my hat on oh, I love this ride so much, oh, it's crazy, this ride is really crazy, the ride Mr.

Toad's Savage was an opening day attraction. at

disney

world and

disney

land and it was a dark ride with the theme of the wind and the willows mr. toad's wild ride i just want to know who was there at the conception of this ride took you to the story of mr. toad and went crazy he says to hell in the end that's what he said I love him so much we're going to a manufactured hell I like her she's short and sweet for such a short trip she had a big impact on my life my mom every time we did something wrong she accepted us mr toad mr's wild ride toad is a warning to kids about what happens when you break the law but you're not really sure how you broke it and then you go to court and they apparently find you guilty for something that's kind of ambiguous and then before you can go to jail, you get hit by a train and you go to hell and then my mom said this is where you're going to end up if you don't do your homework, this is where you're going to end up if you don't eat your vegetables, talk to me one more time, who does it?

Fear has invaded me. Oh, I can explain the plot of Mr. Toad. It is very clear. Well, is there a plot to Mr. Toad's journey? It's the best question. You're basically driving in a car, uh, I think through London, you take a ride to nowhere in particular with Jay Thaddeus Toad, then you go to have a beer with Mr. Winky, you're afraid he's spinning around in his hands, like this that maybe the suggestion is that you are now driving drunk and there are some strained relationships or something happens there, another wrong turn through some bushes and cardboard bushes or just and then a cop arrests you but doesn't read you your rights and then the train you die, wait, we die and then damn you saw a giant devil looking demon with a finger sticking out and that finger has a black acrylic nail and it's pointing with those nails that it just got done and then it's over and you're like what It just happened now that I'm talking about it, I'm going to need therapy for that, um, do you guys cover that?

Thumbs up, Mr. Ride is the best ride ever in a Disney park, so if you ask me if it's appropriate 100, the answer is yes, even in its complete and utter craziness, yes, I think it was appropriate for kids. , I don't know about the going to hell part, I imagine there were a lot of parents who did that and It's like, what did I just take my son to? He feels good, he feels good. I think the Mr. Frog attraction is appropriate for Halloween horror nights because he just throws it in there with some of the Blumhouse features and I think you'll be fine.

You are fit for a Disney park. You know the '50s were a different time. They were in a hurry. You know July 17 is coming. Send them to hell. That will wrap it nicely in a bow that a child has. to know about hell mom dad what the hell did mr toad go to hell why so many awkward conversations after mr toad the wild ride of mr toad closed in magic kingdom and was replaced by the many adventures of winnie the pooh i'd rather take poop and Its honey pot lumps and hepa and woozles and tigger bouncing that scare the hell out of you any day if you listen very closely in the scene of the hufflepuffs and woozles you can hear the screams of the prey.

I would be crushed if Mr. Toad's Wild Ride closed at Disneyland. I would. I would be devastated, they would rip my heart out of my chest and stomp on it as if dancing on a tile floor was unacceptable. No, we have to keep the sunset. We can't all be new. My essence would be lost. It wouldn't be a complete Persona, Mr Toad is something of a cult classic, like hardcore Disney fans love Mr Toad. If this isn't clear, I love Mr Toad's Wild Ride. It's the only reason I moved to California was to be closer to this trip so I could go to Disneyland and live the adventure in Tadeo's Toad Hall.

It's hard to see, but Olivia, first look to your left, look to your left. left side first on the hill im not ready to talk about kilimanjaro safaris its just ilimanjaro safari 1998 the flagship attraction in disney animal kingdom where you get in a safari truck and drive around the reserve and see wild animals like lions , elephants, hippos, rhinos and crocodiles. They also used to have a very hardcore poaching plot to go with them. The safari is lit in any direction so they prepare the trip when you are in line you see all these signs that say beware of poachers report the pullers you are on as a normal break like an African safari in harambe and you are in the reserve and you're seeing all these animals and it's really cool, but like, oh no, something's a foot and they're poachers, the poachers are on the move, they told you over and over again that the poachers were out there, that the poachers poachers were bad, hello, there are porches in the area.

Watch out, watch out, lo and behold, you've gotten caught up in this, which happens a lot at Disney attractions, why do they always like to recruit random tourists to do big things like dinosaurs? They literally say, come on, you guys can travel in time, you know? what are you doing, no, no, I have a real driver who was really interested in that and I remember she said, oh no, the bad guys, should we save the baby elephant? Hooray, we got it right now, if you notice right here. your right my left you are going to see the okapi which is pronounced okapi it looks like a zebra in the back look at the poachers I think what I remember most about the old version of the Kilimanjaro safaris is that nightmare bridge the bridge I remember the bridge The rickety bridge moment is still there, but it's like the standard bridge.

I remember the bridge more, which I think is a lot of people's response. The bridge is held together with duct tape and a prayer, so let's hope we make it and that you stop halfway. the bridge and the bridge actually falls down and the whole truck shakes like this many times the bridge was the best part of kilimanjaro safaris i know how i sound well i know what it is at a certain point your tour guide would say come on Turn on the station local radio like, let's see what's up guys, I always thought that these animals that are in this area must be like they have to change the station, guys, cruel, a lot of people don't realize this because it was so short, but besides the poaching scene where you saved the baby animatronic elephant, little red, a lot of people don't realize that initially there was a dead big red animatronic, wait, wait, what damn big red wasn't so lucky, bubblegum was I'm not having much luck either because no one picks the big red anymore, do they do that anyway?

Yeah, no, I don't think that's the place for that, oh, what did we do, did we go too far, did we go too far with the dead mama baby elephant? It's not what people liked about Bambi and then they ended up taking that out on the dead mother animatronic and took out the cast member holding a real gun like it was literal, I'm sure it was fake but it was a gun , all of you, yes. I'm not kidding, I'd like to talk specifically to Joe Roadie. Joe Rhodey and his wife were the main designers of Disney's animal kingdom, the theme park in general, so of course he had a very, very important part in the design of the Kilimanjaro safaris.

We have it strange, that's all. well, we have the poachers why him and his earring that's where he gets all his power from where is the figure of the dead mother's corpse? Is it in a warehouse like in pieces next to Christmas decorations? Where is the dead mother? Only on eBay if we look closely We might now discover that poaching, the original version of Kilimanjaro safaris, somewhat ruined childhood. I learned about poaching very young and I mean I understood at the time that it is a little known fact that in the late 90's, ivory jewelry was very attractive to children and children around the world were changing their mothers and going to mom, I want that cameo, I mean I see why they added a story because Disney is all about the story, but I'm really, really glad they got rid of the poaching story because like I said most exciting thing you can do is see a real lion or a real elephant or a cheetah or a hyena or a giraffe.

That's enough, it should be enough. I don't really need thrill

rides

with my animals, let's keep them separate, keep your eggs. poached and not your kilimanjaro so far I'm upset about the bridge of six or seven women to a herd there's the mail Snow White's Scary Adventure was a dark ride on opening day at Disneyland in Walt Disney World and took you through the Snow White story. and the seven dwarfs, you were white as snow and you were able to travel through their terrifying adventures and you kept appearing in this scary witch, it's very focused on witches, people didn't really understand that you were supposed to be white as snow, like this which basically looked like Nightmare Fuel Snow's Scary Adventure of Life is the scariest thing I've ever seen at an amusement park.

I went to Snow White when he was a kid and I was horrified. I like it. It's very scary.Although at Disney World I remember it literally terrifying me as a child, but I have since followed it as an adult and at Disneyland and I must say it is still terrifying, it wasn't always called Snow White the Scary Adventure. My instincts tell me it was called The Adventures of Snow White and they received letters, that's a responsibility. that's a responsibility, super like that, it's scary, you're scaring my kids and Walt said, okay, scary adventures, how's that?

I'm glad they added the scary part before I was born because otherwise they would have warned me it was from Snow White. scary adventures I would have been very surprised Snow White's Scary Adventure tells the story of Snow White and Sevdors, the beloved Disney classic, you start with the beautiful murals and the wishing well, and Snow White is there in the wishing well and It's so lovely, come in and I see so white and she's drawing water from the well and she's like I'm longing for the one I love princess sounds that she makes and you say oh this is delicious this is delicious we're going through the story of sunlight that's good and then things get worse and when they get bad they get bad when the witch comes back and tries to kill you I mean Snow White is like 14 and her stepdaughter and she was so ready to kill her just because the magic mirror said it was more pretty like that person was crazy, I don't know.

I know what I honestly think the reason it was scarier was because it wasn't like a moving animatronic, it was basically like a store mannequin dressed up as a nightmare and this is before audio animatronics existed so They are like There are figures in the engines, but somehow they are so scary. There's something about the original Disney effects from the '70s that really makes things scarier when they're effective, especially the part where the witch is like looking in the mirror and you're like hey yeah you're not . that bad and then it turns around, ah, all hell breaks loose, um and then also the scene at the end when the witch is on the top of the mountain and she's going to drop a rock on you and she laughs and you're like, " It's okay, girl, just be." an extra okay, calm down, it's not that bad and then she dies herself at the end, have a good day, no, I don't think Snow White was appropriate for the Disney park, yeah, sorry little kids, I tell you We warned, you know, I told you so. making the decision like, oh, this is scary, what do you think, Timothy?

No, you don't want to ride it. Okay, we'll try it next year. I don't know what Timothy's experience will be, but I think he should have the option if Mr. Frog is appropriate for a Disney park Snow White's Scary Adventures are appropriate for the Disney park at this point Snow White has been at Disneyland for so long. which would be a pain to close first we have to keep that one too sorry, sorry, Timothy Let's keep the terrifying adventures of Snow White, oh God, what are we going to replace it with Nancy's elegant wild ride? I was actually fine with it being removed from Walt Disney World, but I think the connection between it being the original movie and it being the unoriginal original.

The trip makes it too much for me. Snow White's Scary Adventure is a hidden nightmare and Disney World is expensive enough that you have to pay for your kids' therapy because the witch was trying to kill them, so someday I'm going to need therapy and that's terrifying. adventures welcome aboard right now i would like to ask you to place your aunt's arms, feet and legs inside the car while we watch the movies the big movie ride was the central attraction at hollywood studios originally mgm studios when it opened and it was a ride through the theater and it was located inside the chinese theater and it was a 22 minute ride through the theater and you rode in a slow moving vehicle that took you through scenes from movies like indiana jones and the wizard of oz and casablanca and Mary Poppins and ended with a beautiful montage.

There was also some drama in between putting you in the action. I miss him a lot. Do you know what we are talking about? A great game about immersion today with Pandora and Galaxy's Edge. Like, oh, they're the most immersive thing a big movie has ever been, right, it's immersive, the plot of it, is there a plot to the big cinematic journey? A cast member will guide you through the movies, guess which one, this is the perfect job for them because I love movies. He comes in and it's like Busby Berkeley and then Tarzan is in it.

Tarzan is on that journey. Casablanca is watching you, boy. Hey, he's looking at two. He's watching you kids when you get to the gangster scene or the cowboy scene. actually overtaken by a bad guy kidnapped by an old west outlaw or a gangster like if another member of the live acting cast came in and took over your friendly movie tour guide's boat as an actor I always wanted to have this job it would be so good at this, the best robert would come and say: hey, put those hands up, there's no room for the two of us in these places, what is that thing, is it the xenomorph, what is that thing, get out of here you rascal, God mine?

You better run away from the snake, you better cover me, the cops are here, that's my cowboy, here's my gangster. Hey guys, see, I'm a creep. See, I'll take care of this vehicle. You say no, I can't like to see, yeah, okay, yeah, I don't think you want to be on the side of town with the chickadees story and then when you get to the Indiana Jones scene, stop turning up the stairs and arrives. for the gym and then bang, it's cursed, it's a booby-trapped person, the guy turns into a skeleton and they leave him in the grave, you watch your cast member get murdered, that's how it was supposed to be and the animatronic who was carving hieroglyphs on the wall and warned them about touching the jewel turns around and it's your cast member here to save the day it's me jennifer I'm here to save the day let's see the wizard of oz another non-Disney movie and I'm excited because I just got rescued everyone wants I feel like a damsel in distress and then your tour guide comes back and takes you through the rest of that uh, the rest of that trip to the best part of the montage.

I think Mickey Mini's Runaway Railway is a really cute attraction and I don't think it got enough credit because I think a lot of people were really angry that it replaced the big movie attraction. I also love, love, love riding any new Disney attraction because of the technological advancements they incorporate into each attraction. It's great if You're a Loser um so that's what I'm excited about, however I have mixed emotions about it replacing a great movie because I feel like it fit perfectly, I think they should have made a new one with new movies. The best-case scenario would have been that Mickey Minnie's runaway railroad would have gone somewhere else and then the big movie attraction would have been revamped and updated giving new life to that classic.

All of today's attractions are relics of the past, perhaps they were once the best thing in the parks. They all have that old Disney charm, even if that charm leaves a bit of a scar, sometimes I would say the only thing they all have in common is the terror and the sad emotion, like Walt always said: "You know, the Disneyland part always will change Disney." The world will always change and I think you know we have to let go of some things. If I had to choose one of these attractions to bring back, it would have to be between Captain Eel and the great movie I'm bringing back.

Not necessarily at the expense of Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway, but I'm bringing back great movie attractions. I bet you think I'm going to say Mr. Toads, my essence would be lost. I wouldn't be a complete person if mr. toad's wild ride closed in disneyland, mr. toad still exists, i would choose a big movie attraction, the big movie attraction is the one i would like to bring back, but honestly i miss them all, as they are classic Disney attractions that I would happily go on any of them if they came back. have art, look at my art, this is Toad Hall, I wish my house was Toad Hall, oh I'm so excited, this is Thaddeus Toad, he's really the only one you need to know because it's his hall, this right here, this is your living room. toad hall, have you seen toad hall cali river rapids, get him out of here?
