Distory w/ Kate & Kirk Ep. 110: Snow White Part 3: Making Snow White's Scary Adventures
What was the real reason Disneyland’s Fantasyland rides were expanded in 1983?
In this episode of Distory, we time travel to Disneyland in the early 1980s to look at some original WED Imagineering documents that tell the story of New Fantasyland’s construction, including Snow White’s Scary Adventures. From demolition to the inspiration for the new design, we discuss the changes from Walt’s Fantasyland to the updated version before heading inside the attraction to find a (purposefully) frightening queue, a fascinating (for Kirk) stump, and an early ride concept that didn’t actually come to pass. In the dwarf's cottage, Kate gets on several soapboxes, we marvel at the dwarf’s shaving rituals, and Kirk enlightens us about the unique candle holder that Snow White is carrying as she heads to bed.
(Note: We had to pause this episode earlier than planned due to some unpredictable weather knocking out our wifi, but we will be back after D23 with the rest of Disneyland's Snow White’s Scary Adventures!)

Why do Disney’s Snow White rides have so many dungeon scenes? In this episode of Distory, we continue our Snow White series by braving the original Disneyland Snow White ride called Snow White and Her Adventures (or Snow White’s Adventures, it didn’t seem to matter much back then, so pick your favorite). After seeing some concept art that doesn’t stray too far from the feature film, we hear fro...

    My grandmother lived across the street from Disneyland, and I grew up in Los Angeles. We went to Disneyland for every holiday growing up beginning when I was born in 1971. Even when we moved away, we went to Disneyland twice a year. I went there for my honeymoon. As the tickets got more expensive, the less we went. My kids only got to attend once because it was all we could afford. That being said, I never once heard these jokes being used in the Jungle Cruise. Each skipper said different jokes. My favorite was always the joke of the tribal dancing that was called the "I have to go to the bathroom dance," which they did take out completely. I now live closer to Disney World than Disneyland. I haven't been there yet, but a friend who lives near me in Ohio go to Disney World every year growing up with her family, same as mine did going to Disneyland.

    It's one of the best scenes in the movie. Such a cute little guy. He's also in the washing scene when Snow White cleans the house. It's small things like this that made the movie work. Small little comic beats and gags. We won't see things like this in the upcoming live action retelling of the story. Unless of course the director reconizes this little turtle for the star he truely is. Let's hope he gets a spot in the new movie going March 2025.

    To be honest I never liked her design, I don't know why, just didn't like as much as the other princesses (probably was the colors). If her outfit was more like that one in a pink dress I think I would like it much more. Just personal opinion tho, I feel like she's the one I cared the less about as a kid

    Technically Grim didn’t come up with the stairs scene himself, but because the turtle idea was his, Walt gave him the $50 bonus. Some gags were worth more than others, ranging from about $5-50 if they were used in the final feature. The bonus was incentive for the animators to work quickly and come up with amusing action that helped move the plot along. “We always had one in our pants pocket when we were kids, a frog or a turtle or something. So I made a lot of sketches of turtles doing different things, and they made a lot of use of it… I don’t remember what I drew, but they wrote it in right into the story and used him for a scrub board. He was still going up the stairs when they started running down and he toppled over and skidded out of the house.” - Grim Natwick This story came from an obscure interview with Grim Natwick conducted by David Johnson about the animator’s career and work on Snow White.

    That's funny to learn about the ride, when the movie itself was barely a story. It was a series of encounters, and I'm fairly sure it was almost made without an overarching story. It's my favorite fantasy land ride too. I didn't get to ride it my last visit, I'd love to see how updated it's been since ... Oof 20 years since I've been on it I think.

    • @disneycicerone
      @disneycicerone Před 6 hodinami

      The way the movie was created was different animators created different scenes without much cohesion between them, which is why it’s like a series of shorts rather than a movie with a well-devised plot. Walt and the animation team actually hated making it because it wasn’t an emotionally compelling story and it was frustrating to have to adhere to the book so much (to try to appease those who prefer the original version).
