The History of Disney's Demolished Timekeeper Ride 

Robin Williams makes everything better.

During the preshow for this ride they try to get a word from the timekeeper. It just cuts to him screaming with something obviously going wrong. The narrator mentions that wasnt the word we were hoping for.

This is a great example of a great, original Disney theme park attraction. Proving imagineers can make amazing attractions that aren’t based on IP. (Some IP based attractions are great BTW, but I think we should have more original attractions.)

The music in this ride is one of my favorite theme park soundtracks

I loved this attraction along with Alien Encounters. Both some of the best Disney storytelling. They told such big stories in such a small area, and to a child very magical. I would love to see an updated version of this using the origional voice recordings for Timekeeper and Nineeye. And now that Disney owns Aliens franchise to bring back Alien Ecounters with the origional intended IP in either HS or when they deliver a 5th gate. Audiences are more mature and could handle it these days.

Thank you so much for doing this video, I remembered and attraction with robin williams as not even a toddler, and It took me 18 years to find out what the attraction really was. I wish I had better memories but this attraction was so good, which can be shown through how long I remembered it.

Timekeeper was always a favorite!! It was hysterical and interesting!! For my family, Laugh Factory seems to have become a ritual 1st ride the 1st time we go to Magic Kingdom on a trip!! Somehow, I've been "that guy" twice, out of seeing the show 5 times!!!!

Thank you. I never heard of this gem. Wish I had been there, but Very happy to see this.now

This was before I was born but I wish I could see the timekeeper I love Robin Williams

Miss this so much from DLRP. You could hear Robin Williams i think in the Paris version - as u wore a headset with the show in your language!

We miss you, Robin

I really wish this would come back.

Robin Williams’ a comedic genius

The s was a favorite among employees in the late 90s when I worked there🤗thank u for giving it ❤️

Great presentation as usual , always look forward to watching a new one

Thank you for this. I first heard this show track on Magical Mouse Radio several months ago and wanted to cry because I love Robin and never got to experience this show in person. I have wanted some history on it for the longest time. Thank you.

The day I’m typing this, is the anniversary of Robin’s tragic death. I love learning new facts about this wonderful man’s career. Thanks, ReviewTyme. RIP Robin. If only Genie’s 3rd rule could be broken

I hate the presence of Buzz Lightyear in Discoveryland and Tomorrowland. He's a 1990s toy that belongs in Andy's backyard, not in the future or retro-future of these lands. I'd love to restore Le Visionarium---especially in Paris---utilising today's projection technology and A1000 audio-animatronics. A few years ago, I had seen this traveling film called, "Horizon: A 360* Journey/Sesqui" for the 150th anniversary of Canada's Confederation. It was a hemispherical film, which was projected into a dome screen in a theatre similar in shape to an igloo. The picture was seamless (no black bars like in Disney's CircleVision theatres). Imagine an updated Le Visionarium with projections not just on the walls, but on the ceiling as well. I'd also like to see an updated story that not only pulls Verne through time in the film, but into the actual theatre where he's represented through an audio-animatronic and works alongside the time keeper to perfect the time travel technology. Eventually, Verne leaves us to return to the past to collect his friend Wells to go off on their own adventures and perhaps we'll bump into them sometime in the future. If Disney absolutely needs an IP to market through this attraction, perhaps they can create a new animated series for DisneyXD---The Timekeeper, a steampunk time travel adventure series (sort of like steampunk Rick and Morty). I'd get James Lopez and Alex Hirsch to produce and use the writers of Gravity Falls and the new DuckTales to appeal to all ages, not just kids.

I wish i could have experienced this attraction. It would have easily been my favorite

robins idea was for disney to give the timekeeper animatronic after the attraction to me after the attraction closed cause im a friend of robin williams but it never happened

Robin Williams: The humble stand-up made the world laugh. I improvised every second. He easily brought to tears Your viewer and your listener Robin Williams pedaled. And maneuvered through his life. Yes ... His path was not sinless There is versatility, you can't turn away from it Good-naturedly and energetically he lived on Earth I flew to the soldiers in the war. Responded to requests from his fans People like him are not born twice From "Happy Days" to "This is a fucking Christmas miracle" Many different roles have been played. Actor Robin Williams of various plans From comedies to snot Loved children and rare books Bicycles and computer games. Was also a geek of cinema Collected what touched him No conviction from suicide He could no longer make peace with himself. Losing memory and self-control Robin settled the score and left bitterly ... Robin's creativity does not fade away. He lives in the hearts of fans. Probably laughing with the Almighty in the sky Robin Williams will never stop ...

I miss this show. Monsters Inc doesn’t belong there

Thanks for the great video, Luke. Brought back good memories from the attraction.

I love Robin.

Wish I went on it! I went to Disney World when it was still open as a kid, but never experienced it because the picture of the Time Keeper outside the attraction really scared me.

Does anyone know what became of the Timekeeper animatronic?

Great video I did love that show

Well if I'm not mistaken you've used some footage from my video of the last ever Visionarium show in Paris. Would be nice to give proper credits when you've not even asked for permission... I'm personnaly gutted they took out Le Visionarium. This is what started the slow death of Discoveryland which continued with the retheme of Space Mountain into the ridiculous "Mission II"...

I do miss this attraction a lot. I believe the image of Timekeeper at Tokyo Disneyland in this video is wrong. Timekeeper looked the same like at DLP at TDL, never looked like it in this video.
