I have actual A B C D and E tickets as souvenirs. They are remnants of my childhood when I first went to Disneyland. I still remember when Disney changed from tickets to one price for all attractions.
I remember when someone we knew would go everyone would loan them their leftover ticket books. There would always be a bunch of leftover As or B's... So you might have them across like five books.
If I remember correctly and a ticket was like the carousel and a b ticket was the train and there might be five of each in a book while there would only be one or two e-tickets which was for all the premium rides. I think something like a small world would be a c or d ticket
@@experiment626eventing I'm 72 years old and as a child whenever I was in summer camp there was always at least one trip to Disneyland. My family also went whenever we had a out-of-town relatives every few years. that's the only time we went as my parents felt that since I went with summer camp we really didn't need to go at any other time. You have to remember it's was just as it is today very expensive.
There's a reference to The Great Movie Ride at Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway but this one probably isn't too well known yet because not many people are at the parks right now. In the carnival scene, there's a poster for "The Great Moving Ride" which I thought was really funny
I seem to be only posting to pick holes or argue lately so... this video was great. no nitpicking, no moaning, no arguing, this was just fun and informative, cheers mate.
PLEASE make a video JUST about all the different 20,000 Leagues references! I would really love to know about them all 😃👍🏼 PS- never knew about that last one and it’s pretty awesome :)
There’s also a World of Motion logo on the queue loading area. Only really noticeable after you sit in the car and look back towards the dividers. But the biggest is probably the small gift shop outside the park, towards the busses. The wallpaper near the ceiling has all the original pavilion logos. This is visible even as you walk past it on your way to the bus.
I don't know if anyone has done it before, but you might want to do a comparison of the old read-along story of the Haunted Mansion with the actual ride. It's that book that's responsible for preserving people's memory of the Hatbox Ghost.
@@JosephDavies an hour long read-along story on vinyl record & book format, released before the original ride in Disneyland opened, some cut scenes, including the Hatbox Ghost & the man-being-eaten-alive-by-spiders, were cut from the ride when it opened
I think one reference that is really cool is inside Space Mountain in WDW. It is a sticker on a suitcase that reads, Mesa Verde, a tribute to Horizons.
Something I don't know that I've ever seen pointed out that I think deserves a shoutout. In the Collector's office on GotG, if you look inside of one of the cabinets there's a big fish model. This is actually one of the piranha from the Piranha 3D remake.
I’d like to see a video about some of the lost attractions that for some reason don’t really get mentioned very often. Admittedly, they aren’t the sort of thing you can devote an entire video to on their own, but in a list video like this it could work. The three I would like to see that are pretty much overlooked and/or forgotten entirely are the Frito Kid machine at Casa de Fritos, the very weird Dick Tracy Live show, and the Soap Opera Bistro.
Melvin the Moose winked at me when I was little. I think I was 10ish, so this is the seventies. I always wondered where he went. Thank you for bringing back a happy memory.
Fun video as always! Looking forward to the upcoming "very special" video! Also, would love to have you on our podcast some time to talk Disney and/or any other movies/games you would want!
Also in Disneyland, at the Pooh Corner gift shop in the area where they make the sweets behind the glass, there are pictures of Country Bear characters with Winnie the Pooh characters on the wall.
Now I feel like they could have made Alien Encounter/Stitch's Great Escape at WDW into a Guardians of the Galaxy attraction instead of an Epcot coaster. That would be the perfect place for a Marvel attraction - the ip would draw people in, and they could get a proper scary/funny balance out of it.
I’m hoping for a Star Tours-type ride through the many lands and worlds of Marvel. Dr. Strange alone has some very trippy possibilities...can we bargain with Dormanmu? 🤔
Came at less than 300 likes, I feel like I won the lottery ahaha love the channel, I know you love cali Disney and that's your park, but I was wondering if there can be any future vids about Paris? I live in the Scotland and only been able to go to Paris, I've been 19 times and such a Disney nut, would love to see a few vids on my park :)
Have you seen Justin Scarred’s videos on Disneyland Paris? He’s done a few that are pretty entertaining. Here’s a link to one of the videos (he’s done several, with my favorite being the one on the walk-throughs): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VafHuVksmn0.html
Well Dallas, if you enjoyed Journey through inner space, in the original Star Tour with Captain Rex, the microscope that was used to shrink you was seen towards the beginning of the ride when you go the wrong way. Considering that the original star tours attraction is now gone, there’s a hidden snow flake, on the white wall where you first enter Tomorrowland as a reference to Journey through inner space
Actually there are also several references to Inner space in the new star tours as well. The microscope and snowflakes can be seen in a suitcase being scanned, and the shrinking machine is also hidden in a scene in the ride
great videos man, you should try doing a full season of episodes, each covering the histories of a different ride in the wdw/dl parks, and by the end covering all the rides in the park.
I always found the presence of Max, Buff and Melvin in the Winne the Pooh ride in Disneyland a bit sad. There they sit, forever frozen in place, waiting for a Country Bear Jamboree that will never happen again.
“A world of walls” or as we like to call it, Wallcot. Ah, World of Motion had such a good song. It’s fun to be free, to be on the move. To go anywhere, with ever a care to. Do all you’ve wanted to do, it’s fun to be free!
The 20K Leagues Under The Sea was disappointing. I loved the film and for both trips I was excited to get aboard one of these subs. Both times they smelled like the stuff you put on vomit to absorb it. The portholes you were supposed to look out of were always smeared with greasy finger prints or worse so you first had to clean them off to see and the set pieces about half the time were broken in some way. Mostly just partially completing the actions they were supposed to and sometimes just hanging there.
The shopper in me wants stores in Disneyland that have closed. I remember a Geppetto's clock store in Fantasyland that I would make my mom stay in until all the clocks would go off. I was so sad when that store changed to what ever it became.
@@Bumblebee67544 I was pretty young, 7 or 8, so I really don't remember much more than the beautifully carved wooden clocks and their fun characters. I remember there was more to the store, but my primary memories are the wooden carved clocks just inside the entrance. The store was at the exit to the skyway in Fantasyland, I really miss that too! The sound of all the clocks going off on the hour was almost deafening! I loved it! all the characters that would come out and dance or do their tricks were amazing. Going to that store was always a highlight of our visits there. It really felt like I was in Geppetto's house in Pinocchio with all the clocks. I wish I had pictures of it.
During the 90's, there was a giant story book somewhere in Disneyland. When I try to look for it online, I can find pictures of a giant book, but that's not it. It's a different book. I know, because I'm the one who built the other one. I would love to see it again. If anyone knows what I am talking about, I would love hear from you. Some other things I built and worked on are "industrial" steel with rivets looking video game cabinets, a sci fi tree house, and "enchanted woods" themed parade floats. Can't find pictures of those either.
so YOU made the coolest looking props for the game section! ive only been at innoventions once before it closed, but i remember the game cabinet tree and a solar panel tree.
Also, in the queue for Ariel's Undersea Adventure, they play an arranged version of "Whale of a Tale" from the 20,000 Leagues film as part of the waiting music! ^^
My detectives report that Disney is in daily contact with CA Gov in Sacramento negotiating to get the parks open. Disney have both D-land and Cal Adventure cleaned, prepped and ready. They are so ready that they can open both parks 10 days after they get the "green light" from Sacramento! So... we wait ... (we are hearing September)
Love your videos :) quick production note just watch out for too much movement on a chroma key background. It can get a lil dizzying. Also would've been a great segue to go from the 20k Leagues Pooh tree to the quick pooh country bear/mr toad references. It's a producer kinda day :P If you would ever like another set of eyes on anything I'd love to help out :) can't wait for your next video!
Space Mountain at Disneyland and WDW also used to reference X-S Tech in the pre-show between 1994-2005. Unrelated to Disney, there's also a Star Trek fan fiction that says the company exists in that universe as well.
Hi Offhand Disney!!! I have a quick theory about Constance and The Hatbox Ghost at Disneyland. [WARNING, SOME STUFF MAY SEEM A BIT VIOLENT] So Constance, when she kills her husbands, puts their heads in a hatbox to keep them as souvenirs. In a HATBOX. We also see the hatbox ghost at the end of the ride, and his head goes into a hatbox. So, ways he could've died INCLUDE getting beheaded by Constance, or at least having a connection to Constance. This is all for now, I hope you enjoyed my theory! Edit was a grammar error :)
@@angelsinger4574 Thanks! And yeah, that would make sense. Adding on to what you said, maybe there's a possibility he was going to tell so she cut off his head? I don't know, but I think that these two characters have some sort of connection.
My father's favorite childhood Disneyland attraction was the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea Exhibit in Tomorrowland. Sadly, my family's first (and so far only) trip to Florida was well after the Nautilus closed down. If you know of even more hidden references, we're all ears.
It’s not a reference to an extinct Disney attraction however I do know there’s an old Eeyore parking sign in Indiana Jones Adventure in Disneyland. A CM showed it to me years ago.
Keith O'Neil in the preshow room to the very back above the projectors. If you were to ask a cast member they would shine a light on it since it is kinda dark up there
I remember being at Magic Kingdom in like 2006, and looking at that lagoon, and seeing the tracks that the submarines used to run on (I didn’t know what they were from though) and thinking there MUST be some kind of awesome underwater ride that I was somehow missing.
Never knew about the WoM references on TestTrack. Since they're outdoors, I wonder if they mark the section of the old ride that was outdoors/open-air?? 🤔
There's rumors for Mickey's Runway in Disneyland when u enter the carnival scene there's supposed to design it as Paradise Pier '01 then when the tornado hits its supposed to turn into the '12 version which i think that be cool and funny!
My dad has a map of Disney world from around when it opened and he brought it with us when we went in 2017 so we could see where all the old rides were :)
There's a reference to the great movie ride in mickeys runaway railway at Hollywood studios in the fair scene theres a poster that says the great moving ride and the twister scene was supposed to be in the great movie ride wow
Amazing Fact I just wish Disney would bring back the original Attractions I don't know why People get the wrong idea by thinking Walt Disney was about Retheaming, when it was meant to add new Attractions as an Addition, its unbelievable that People Scrap all of the Original Disney I guess they don't want Younger Viewers learning Original Disney
Just wanted to jump in and discuss a little further on King Triton's Statue. I've personally never been to Disney world but have continuously visited Disneyland and I remember some sort of King Triton's Shrine at Disneyland around the Tomorrowland's entrance maybe? My memory is blurry....
I loved horizons. Sadly I haven't even as a Florida resident with discounts still cannot not afford to go to Disney and Epcot in over 10 years. And only cause my sister got married there that night and who doesn't want to do a Disney wedding? It was awesome. Just a very bad experience family wise sadly. And to go now by myself like I used to do again way to expensive for me. 😢 Hence why I love your videos along with provast pass channel. Your content and theirs nails it. Thank you.
I'm bummed i'm late to the party on this! But as much time as you spent on the submarine ride, you didn't mention the dialogue at the end of Finding Nemo's Submarine Voyage where the Captain mentions that they better wrap it up before they see Sea Serpants and Mermaids (like the original attraction)
