Cinderella does not own this one before and when they had super dancing Mania the old owners not really upset about this they moved out in 2006 and Cinderella moved in around 2011
I'd kill to go through that! That looked amazing! Black cauldron is one of my Disney favourites and I'm so happy it had recognition at the parks for a time!
If you were unable to understand here is a quick overview: The guide introduces herself and lists through the rooms they will see. Then as they begin the tour the mirror has the villain take over. The guide keeps trying to tell the group everything's okay, but is obviously very scared. In the end the villain tries to sacrifice everybody to the cauldron, but the little girl stops him. As an epilogue the group is told they were courageous and, "earnestly, thank you!"
@deathspine1 I really think that this video will only appeal to those who are actually interested in this attraction. Since it's all in Japanese, and a very, VERY obscure Disney attraction, I can see why people would find it boring or un-interesting...but the show was REALLY strange!!!
Basically, they're going on a tour of Cinderella's castle and it goes completely wrong. In the first room, she's introducing them to famous Dinsey heroes when the mirror introduces the famous Disney villains and sends them into the dungeons. Throughout the tour, they avoid more and more villains and their minions. Throughout all the rooms, the mirror and the skull on the wall encourage the tour guide to turn back for the sake of the tour members' lives. Eventually, you stumble upon a room that explains the story of the Disney movie "The Black Cauldron," where the guide explains the chosen one and the Sword of Light defeated the Horned King. The cast member then chooses a member of the tour (almost always a child) to help defeat the Horned King with the Sword of Light. They stumble into the final room, which houses the Horned King. In this room, the Horned King tells the audience that they will be used in the Black Cauldron to help him and the villans gain power. This is when the chosen one in the tour will point the Sword of Light at the Horned King, which is defeated by the flashes of light that are blasted towards him from the sword. He is defeated, the guide presents the chosen one with a medal, and the guide thanks the tour members for their bravery and for sticking with them even though it went completely wrong. They then exit to the "Good Conquers Evil" sign and back into the park.
@@jeremyriley1238 There is a big reason for this bizarre attraction though; Japan's Oriental Land Company, who partly owns Tokyo Disney. They always push the Imagineers to think outside their comfort zone and bring unique rides to their park that their guests can relate to. It was a very unique ride for those that can speak Japanese, but very confusing for those that could not. That is why any guests that could not speak Japanese were discouraged from participating in the attraction.
@snowsbeau Um...the ride is located in JAPAN. I might be going out on a limb here, but it makes PERFECT SENSE to me that the tour guide would speak...wait for it... JAPANESE!
Whoops I'm a bit late According to Disney Wiki, here is the translation of what he says: “(Evil laugh) Everyone welcome. In this Black Cauldron, everything in the world is controlled. Don’t be afraid. It will all be over shortly. No one can escape from here and you’ll be sacrificed to the Black Cauldron. Oh Satan’s kiln… awaken and resurrect the soldiers of death! Rebuild an army without rivals! The Army of Death… rise! The devil’s servants… go and capture them and throw them into the cauldron! Don’t leave anyone behind! The Black Cauldron wants more bodies! I swear to the death! (Evil laugh) Nobody can destroy me…What’s that!?! Capture those fools and gratify the Black Cauldron!”
SoramimiKeiki I have a feeling that it may have been the intention. They knew they made a scary kind of ride experience so to even it out, they have an over the top tour guide being funny and ecstatic to make the experience more enjoyable for all guests.
The internet says that this ride is scarier than Alien Encounter, but I disagree. Alien Encounter is scarier in my opinion because the Horned King doesn't eat people and breathe down on your shoulders, this still looks just as scary though
Isn't she? Disney employees are always happy and cheerful, for what I've hear, and Japanese people are super hyped so... I guess that's what comes out of the combination hahaha
Actually, this is supposedly Cinderella's because of the sign. While they have the characters from Sleeping Beauty in it too. I had to take a screenshot of that because they mixed up quite a bit with that!
In 3:09 Guide:Magicmirror, don't scare us!what the hell do you want? Mirror:How dare you insulted Disney's Villains! "Nasty cruel villains"?pah!I'm gonna show you the villains! (Lightnin' and pictures switched into villains) Mirror:Well! In 10:47 Guide:Don't worry, we're brav... Mirror:This is last time you'll say that! Guide:What do you mean? Mirror:You'll noticeed soon...(cackle) (Lift's door opens)
It's all said in a pretty joking/comedic tone, honestly this ride has quite a bit of comedy much like the Jungle Cruise. Other than the Horned King there really isn't anything scary or "messed up", it's only the people that have literally no clue what's being said that think that (or small children).
ferrari250tr That dungeon scene in between the Evil Queen’s lab and Bald Mountain looks rather creepy! And that dragon could certainly intimidate people!
Maybe it's just "the grass is always greener" taking effect, but seriously... I live nearest to the original Anaheim Disneyland park, and it seems like ALL the other ones have the coolest stuff. Not that I'm ungrateful for stuff like Big Thunder Mountain, The Haunted Mansion, Grizzly River Run, Guardians of the Galaxy Breakout, but we still don't have any dinosaurs... Or an updated PotC ride... Or THIS awesome walkthrough.
I agree completely. I grew up in Orange County and always felt like the other parks had more of the cool stuff (and just more stuff in general!). But hey, at least we have the history, and the only grounds Walt himself walked on. I feel like that creates a certain magical feeling that the others lack.
The evil stuff in the water, the two he zoomed in on I believe were Flotsam and Jetsam from The Little Mermaid, I'm not positive though, the sort of ripple made it a little difficult.
@@LegitMan335 Meh, Japanese kids can handle scary stuff. I mean, the country has anime and TV shows aimed at kids with content that would require a higher rating when released here in the States. I agree the attraction needs a revival. Maybe make it without the Cinderella theme and add some more Disney villains (it was said the attraction closed because of newer safety rules regarding earthquakes, so it may need to be an attraction that is not underground).
I can't believe they closed this attraction. I really wanted to go on it, but when I asked a cast member, they had told me it closed a decade ago. I was really disappointed :(
This looked so cool...I wish we could have cool scary things like this in the states. 😩 I guess you guys were warned not to go because there was no way to translate anything going on lol.
I heard it was a really cool attraction. I wanted to go last year, but I found it closed, and then I didn't want to fly across the country to another part of the world for something I knew I wouldn't like. So I just went to Disneyland Paris and Disney World.
So what I seen of Haunted Houses it's confusing messes with strobe lights but this is on a whole other level.if the tour guide wasn't there people would be so scared because of the unknown
The Magic Mirror looks like how it did on the Disney TV special on Disney villains that aired in 1977. Hans Conried did the voice, as he had done with the character whenever the character was featured on the anthology series, in such episodes as "All About Magic" (1957) and "Magic and Music" (1958).
@planclops If I understood some it right, the Magic Mirror interrupts the tour to say how the Disney Villains are wrongly justified and basically puts the castle under the control of the Horned King from the Black Cauldron. He tries to "raise the dead" and a child is chosen from the audience to defeat the Horned King with a sword. I think that's the gist of it; the castmember talked too fast for me to catch it all. Hope this helps.
"Hi, have a good time being sacrificed to the Black Cauldron!!" said with the same cheerfulness as Miracle Max in The princess bride--- "Have fun storming the castle!!"
If they did, d the Black Cauldron elements would be removed due to Disney wanting to live like the movie never existed (since it was a box office bomb). That, and it would have to be toned down to avoid complaints from parents about it being too scary.
I am Japanese and I went to this tour when I was Little,It was great But yes they should have some subtitles so the audience can understand.How did you understand what the guide was saying? That realy confuses me.
Brandon Troia True. Plus, Japanese kids can handle violent and scary imagery better than American kids (as some of the anime they make have characters being killed off in gruesome ways. Heck, even Super Sentai, a series that would be brought to America and adapted into Power Rangers, had some scary images and moments of intense violence and characters being killed off.).
Good, they finally brought it back! Hopefully with some luck a little persuation and a lot of support an English version may be set up for production in the American Disneyland branch.
This video is the theme park equivalent of the Blair Witch Project. I expected to see one of the guys standing in a corner, back to the camera with lots of screaming in Japanese before the screen went black. That being said, I will never complain about Cinderella's Royal Table again, as overpriced as it may be. Glad WDW got a restaurant instead of this.
@@diegofavaratozfilms962 actually, it was because of earthquake safety standards being updated. This was a popular attraction despite being scary. The Japanese audience like dark stuff unlike westerners
As much as the comments from the guys are a bit grating, you have to admit that between the menace in the attraction and the big language barrier, this must have been REALLY unnerving for a non-Japanese speaker to go through.
I don't know if this is possible, but do you think you guys could put English subtitles? The attraction seems very interesting =D If no subtitles can be made its cool. Its still interesting to watch.
Dude, Mark is HOT. Just sayin'. Also, this whole tour seems WAY too dark for Disney. There is a reason The Black Cauldron is the only Disney animated film to be rated PG and not G. That movie is way to dark for kids.
