Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular Returns to Disney’s Hollywood Studios 

What do you think of the revised show?

This is what Hollywood STUDIOS should be, the Hollywood that never was and always will be. This is the last remaining thing of the parks original vision, not the I.P dump it is

Yes I have thoughts about the changes but the energy from the cast….. clearly they’re happy to be back to work. And I loved throwin the whip to the director to nod to the fact that he was the longest running Indy

23:35 she literally made him spin into another dimension

Those animatronics are so life like.. amazing.

It's funny how they run in to save the Marion Ravenwood double from the truck explosion but not the guy who was driving the truck...

I'd forgotten how much fun that show is. Just FANTASTIC!

Miss them pulling extras from the audience. But I am soooooooo happy its back

The actor in the Blue Shirt who is the "Producer" was the original Indiana Jones at first opening back in the day. That is why he was able to crack the whip so good. We just went last week, and they are focusing on more cast safety so no more swords, but clubs. Indy also has to kick the cockpit open whereas before he would shoot the lock. I believe they stopped that because of COVID. Normally the Mechanic gets swallowed up by one of the "Propellers" but in this video he just ran away. Indy also used to fall through the ceiling like in this video which is a great entrance, now he just appears coming out of the tunnel. Still epic, but I do miss the casting from the audience and the planted Hawaiian shirt actor. I got selected once. It was pretty surreal.

Volunteering as an extra for this stunt show was what got me into watching the Indiana Jones movies.

I simply cannot wait to be back in the seats watching this next month.

Why did they remove all of the best effects that were from the movie

I saw it live, was magical

The Indiana Jones Spectacular has always been my favorite thing at any Disney Park. I did see it a few weeks ago and I preferred that version. I did enjoy when the mechanic "Steve" (I got a name just like it) was chopped up and I recommend instead of Indy stepping on the lock he shoots the lock to free Marion. I also miss when they chose volunteers to participate and I was very fortunate to get a picture with Indy.

God this brings back memories. My favorite show at Disney world back in 93 I think it was. I was hooked after watching.

I just saw this show a couple of weeks ago in person and needless to say, IT GOT ME HOOKED INTO WANTING TO WATCH INDIANA JONES NOW.

I can appreciate the fact this show has returned (it’s a guilty pleasure even if it seems most don’t seem to like it much or skip it altogether when visiting Hollywood Studios). The “changes” are very minimal, yes, but it does take away from the moment and the action a little bit too. Not a fan of removing the gun from Indy (thus removing some nice stuntwork from the Indy stuntman and the “Big Sword Thug” moment which I think is crucial to the show). Also, the “trap door trick” missing from where the big guy gets “sliced up” kind of sucks too as it shows a decent movie trick and is also crucial to the show (movie making process, literally the theme of the show). If anything the BIGGEST nitpick for me is the final scene when Indy and Marion run from the plane in the final explosion, mostly due to the score timing. When I first saw the show in 1995, the timing was PERFECT because Indy and Marion ran from the plane as soon as the score was reaching it’s final long note, then the explosion happened right before the end of the note. For a while now in subsequent viewings (and still after it’s re-opening), the timing is SO WEIRD because they wait for the score to end and THEN they start running, leaving this weird stretch of awkward silence as they run from the plane and then the explosion hits. I figured they tweak THAT part since they had 2 years to do it, but it still remains. Lol. All in all, I’m glad the show’s back, and hopefully these minor changes are temporary (at least the Indy not having a gun part).

They should get a bob chepek look alike to play the guy from the audience who gets knocked out …

Worked on this show back in the 90s great memories

I too appreciate the hard work of the cast members and that they are back to work since COVID! But….I miss the parts with “Indy “ having gun scenes, the guys with the swords, and the grand finale. 😢

5:42 is only what we came here for

We waited over 600 days for this cheapened version of the original IJ!

YAY THE SHOW IS BACK!

Reminds me of when Lion King came back. Went to see it the other day and was shocked on how much they took out and left feeling like my favorite park show isn't worth seeing anymore. That's the problem with knowing better and Disney cutting everything back yet charging more and the parks are more packed then ever. So sad.

Here’s what you all been waiting for folks it’s back it’s Indiana Jones

Woo, go Indy!!!!

Boy how they ruined it. First Six Flags removes their Batman stunt show, then the Nazis are renamed the Germans (ironically making it MORE offensive, as it turned from "Fight Fascism" to "Be Xenophobic") and now THIS CRAP!

Wished they had this show when I was there visiting… awe!! 😢

I wish I could see this as a kid

I don't like being negative. But seeing it numerous times in the past and being my fav show. Seeing the changes now it just does not have the same feel.etc...

When the guy in the orange t-shirt started talking, I was expecting him to tell me a fun fact on Tik Tok

That stunt guy holding onto the ladder with one hand the first time it is pushed at 19:16 is legit!

I love this show.

Man, they're amazing

I notice that the character Indiana Jones no longer fires any blank guns for some reason. The only gunshots left are pre-recorded machine gun sound effects.

No matter how many times I go to Hollywood studios for the past 20 years that never gets old. Love it 🔥 pleave Never get rid of it . It is one of the best . Too bad they got rid of JAWS. That was an amazing experience with they should of never got rid of . Who can agree?

The fight scene at the end is weak. The bad guy used to get chopped up by the airplane ✈️ blade years ago … I miss the old show … these new changes are not good. 😔

I remember seeing this and it was AMAZING!!! I saw it in 2019

Welcome Back Indiana Jones Show 2021

Is it more cuts or more changes exactly

Love this show.

hey its the disney parks stream host, nice to see him

This show looks like a rough draft for the original one.

When did they cover up the not-see flag that was on the tail of the plane?

I was here today!

It doesn’t matter to me that they aren’t picking any “volunteers, in my 25-30 years of going I was never chosen. 😡🤬, so don’t care anymore, but I’m glad it’s still there!

And I’m the only one who can say this. That guy at the beginning? THATS MY DAD!!!

WATCH OUT THE BOULDER!!!!!!!!!!!

We have a home video of this show that cuts off at 5:55 so I've always just assumed something bad happened and the stuntman died.

I was there yesterday

honestly i think the show still works even with the changes. granted its missing the classic indy shoots the bad guy gag instead of fighting him, but it still works however i wonder what that standby time was for, i could see if it was a weather or tech reason, or an adjustment for a stunt that may not be doable due to covid restrictions which i think is the fall into the building doesn't occur

I love you show Time for you 😘😘👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

This is depressing but I suppose a great example of how badly Disney has fallen from its once wonderful status. They went from swastika (like in the movie) on the tail to iron cross to.... black bars? What happens when someone reports they are offended about that? Also, where's the trap door finale? Has that been scrapped due to COVID? It looks and feels like they are just phoning it in. Why not shut it all down until everyone decides they are willing to show up and really live?

Music: John Williams(1981-2008)

Why does the bad guy just run off instead of being chopped up by the blades? If you're going to change it at least make it make sense. Have him run after the machine gun fire goes off, maybe spooking him, or something. He just leaves... for literally no reason.

Welcome back Indiana!!

1:31

They removed all the iron crosses for some reason, I understand why they removed the original “bad” cross from when the show opened, but this doesn’t make sense.

Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular Returns to Disney's Hollywood Studios

Alright I’ll bite. Where are the hoods for the bad guys?

This is better irl I went there last Saturday and saw it it's much better irl❤

1:12 scene 1 15:43 scene 2 26:43 scene 3

Not the same. Watching clip from the movie as a “moment of silence” for another original Disney attraction taken away.

They didn't perform the airplane part when we were there, so disappointed

I was there

Just seeing all the people on stage standing around as the sets are being moved around and to give the illusion of a “film set”… I’m concerned that penny counting all-about-business Bob Chapek will look at those more passive people as a wasted expense. I’m sure the budget will soon get cut and it’ll be a skeleton crew of three people along with a new concept to get rid of as much people as possible.

No head ware, no gun, no crosses on jeep or plane, politically correct at its finest!

Raiders is one of the most grittiest films that almost deserved an R rating god did they tone this show down. Of course THATS Dizznee for you.

Seems like random cuts were made rather than any kind of real reworking, doesn’t take away from everyone here’s massive talent. Just feel like there was an opportunity to try to do something new with less resources. (Maybe drop the live set motif, or just change up the order of some of the large set pieces, or subvert some expectations?)

They should do sets from the entire original trilogy.

Saw it for the first time about a month ago. After years of wanting to see it, I can't describe my disappointment. Less than 1 min of stunts.

The obvious censorship of certain things throughout the show kinda kills the original performance. Still glad it’s back!

If you had never seen the original, it would be good. Unfortunately, I think it's meh. I appreciate the actors hard work and understand the changes due to covid, but the original is better.

wow, cant have any edge even in hollow wood studios, a park about movie's. cant have one of the most iconic seance in moive history "we cant have the good guy shooting somone".

so... they can't "kill" the Big Guy anymore? hmm... no people from the Audience... looks Meh... but hey, it's back.

What if Harrison Ford was actually there?

Why would they of removed the 'big Sword guy' part? and got rid of the Big mechanic chopping up part, They made it WOKE! congratulations Chapek

🎥❤️👈🔥👉❤️🎬

They PC it to death. I’ve watched it close to 20 times. Watched it while we were there 2 weeks ago. I was very disappointed. It used to be my favorite thing at Disney. Will not waist time on it anymore.

I don’t understand why it’s absolutely necessary to point out that it’s “Diverse”. It’s not necessary! It’s getting aggravating! I think most Americans are irritated that it must be pointed out that it’s diverse. No one cares!

Thanks Chapek for reducing the quality of the show.

You paid for a full day pass but this was not open for a long time. For what? They gypped people.

Really glad to see the show back again. These people complaining and making up reasons why "x" changed need to calm down and stop with the moaning and complaining. These people work their butts off and it is a great show.

Meh..The guy didn't get chopped up by the plane prop

When this first started and they had the audience involvement my parents got to do it it was so cool

3rd scene = Epic stunt spectacular FAIL.

I hate to be rude, but children and stunt shows don't mix. They could fall and die if they're not careful, of course. Indiana Jones is a brave guy even though snakes scare the **** out of him. I wonder if the Indiana Jones and Marion Ravenwood meet and greet returned to Disney's Hollywood Studios yet.

To anyone crying about the changes…..I don’t even like this show anyway, I think it’s dated and sits on prime real estate for new attractions. My opinion!

My God at least come up with new lines and jokes. You had over had almost two years to figure something out.

The left ruined this show. Apparently someone dying or getting shot is offensive. I’m surprised the two machine guns aren’t gone

Love stunt people, but there’s always something about their acting in a stunt show that’s too finessed, to performancy and dance like. I like grit and realism. But they don’t have to do a bunch of shows in a single day week after week, so I’m sure that’s the main reason for their floaty performances and weak acting

Wow, what a let down. Compared to how the show used to be, this is sadly tame. They took "kid friendly" to far.

Indy didn't get replaced by a lady???

This is a somewhat ok 15-minute show padded out to a somewhat boring 30 minute show.

Thanks I hate this.

surprised they didnt' get a woman to play Indy considering how disney likes to pander

I just don’t find this show entertaining. It drags on too long. The only thing that is entertaining in this park is the tower of terror. The rest is a waste of space.

I was really hoping they would get rid of the massively cringe worthy movie set gag. I've hated it since the day it launched when I was a little kid. Just put on a good stunt show. I get you need filler during set changes, but this isn't it, and never has been.

CMON ....They removed two of the most iconic scenes in the movie!!!!

You can tell Disney stock is down 40%
