    Okay but the "dark" Sinbad ride is so technologically impressive and kids who are older might think it's cool. If they had just put an age limit on the ride, maybe it could have stayed.
    And now that I know there could have been dragons in Disneyland, I am so disappointed there aren't.

    I never saw Light Magic, but this is how it was described to me by someone who did: "The floats stop and they dance, then they jump off the floats and they dance and then they jump back on the floats and they dance some more."

    • @happiestplace3754
      @happiestplace3754 Před 3 lety +26

      Well I can tell you, I WAS there when it opened and that's a pretty accurate description. The music is actually really good, I bought the soundtrack when it came out and still listen to it. Like the video says, it was very inspired by Celtic style music and yes Riverdance, which I think was still popular for a few more years at the time. The problem was Fantasmic was a HUGE hit and they were trying to capture that magic with this parade/show that didn't know what it was, and was a project done by committee, constantly throwing in new ideas, rather than a leader with a single vision or storyline.

    @GreyWouldBe Před 3 lety +173

    I actually have insight on the flying dragon! So the history of the dragon came from a Disney imagineer who didn't work on it directly but worked adjacent to it. They created a special 3D printing machine for the UV reactive filament, The patent was for a experimental airplane officially, and it was in development for 5 years. Disney management decided that instead of spending another 1 to 2 years trying to complete the project, which would center around making the dragon less delicate, so it could reliably fly for multiple weekly shows, The project was terminated. The dragon flew once, they evaluated the wear and tear from that flight and shelved the dragon. The decision ultimately was that too much money had been sunk into it for the payoff, they just weren't willing to put A few more years of money into it.
    I remember seeing some video of it that absolutely brought tears to my eyes, it was a magical piece of engineering and hopefully someday they'll decide to take it out of the Disney vault and let the imagineers complete the ambitious dragon.

      They were more than happy to sink money into projects that were promptly cancelled and had to require even more money to be dismantled or some stupid fads, but an actual piece of ingenious engineering that can make IRL dragon that can fly and impress the hell out of people and proven to actually work? oh no that's too expensive.

    I love the birthday cake castle. It was my first trip to Disney World after a couple Disneyland trips as a kid. It makes the anniversary instantly recognizable and memorable. Blew my mind as a kid to see the castle as a GIANT cake. Honestly, for a kid, it was a lot more fun than some boring castle.

      I'm glad for you that you liked the castle cake, but I absolutely hated it. The castle is an icon, and they should never change it in drastic ways like that. Some people may only get to go once in their lifetime, and they would like to have the classic castle there instead of some gaudy giant cake. I remember going one year when it was only halfway done. Right there, in broad daylight for the entire time I was there, it was half cake on the bottom, and half castle on the top, which a huge, ugly crane sitting there by the castle. Now those were some AWESOME trip photos, let me tell ya!

From what I recall, it was meant to happen every night in place of Tinkerbell's flight, but my guess is that it was either too costly or too dangerous to do every night, so it was made into a one-time event instead. Still - here's hoping it makes a comeback someday!

    I didn't realize that the Sinbad attraction had been so drastically changed. I've seen ride-through POVs of the current iteration and it still looks like a fantastic, though underrated attraction. What I really dislike is how attractions are changed because of negative guest feedback because "their kids were scared". That's part of what makes attractions like Snow White's Scary Adventures, or DInosaur, or the majority of the classic attractions from Universal Studios Florida so great. Yeah, I was scared of Kongfrontation when I was 5, but neutering it would have been the wrong way to go, just as I'm skeptical of the new Snow White's Magic Wish. I understand that parks need to listen to guest feedback, but far too often I feel that they try to appease the lowest common denominator.

      @BellePullman Před 3 lety +6

      I agree, but it depends on the target audience, and how successful the attraction is at achieving its goals. Like an attraction aimed at an older, thrill-seeking audience at most needs a warning for scaring kids, but if the intention was something family-friendly and suitable for little kids but it turned out too intense, then it's time to edit it.

      I remember being terrified of the Dinosaur ride at WDW and am afraid to go back to see if it's still as scary as it was back then (around 2002, I think), but I have a need to do that to conquer my fears. After all, I used to be scared of the Temple of Doom ride in Disneyland, too, but once I got older, it became one of my favorite attractions. Like the T-Rex in the Jurassic Park ride at Universal (I haven't ridden the new version yet), it's a small window of time where I invite the fear; I look forward to having that 1-2 minutes on a ride to let out a Hollywood-level scream being face-to-face with an animatronic that was designed to impress and impose upon guests.
      I'm not a horror fan and never will be, but the rides that sent a chill down my spine growing up are now revered in my mind as some of the best I've ever known.

    Just like with the recent snow white refurbishment, I feel like because Disney has such a large child audience, they feel like most things have to be joyous unless it has a height requirement. But some of us kids like to be scared! The haunted mansion and Snow White were one of my favorite attractions as a kid. And later as a teenager I loved the alien encounter! I think because of the limitations Disney clearly puts on it’s experiences, those talented dark creators should go to places like universal studios to enhance their experiences! Have you seen the new Jurassic World? That finale is amazing. We need more of this.
    I’m sure I would’ve loved something scary like Sinbad as well! I would’ve loved a dark attraction at universal studios based on the monsters.

      @@thewholecircus the giant is my favorite part of that ride but I really feel like he doesn’t do much when playing the instrument. The singing voice saves it. But yeah knowing he was dangling people like that, so much movement. He’s so huge I wish I could have seen how intimidating that is.
