      What I admire most is how much self control the chefs who bake and assemble the gingerbread house’s every year. If I was a chef,
      I would devour the gingerbread house whole 🤣

      @@Fire-Wolf-The-Wolgan No. That's disturbing in the right ways to be disturbing. The Tim Burton one is just all sorts of unpleasant and wrong. The Mr. Rogers-esque piano score, the bright white background looking like an empty void. The Gingerbread Man singing part Rod Stewart's "Do You Think I'm Sexy" to a child. The "inspired by Japanese culture" concept being just hiring Asian actors. The low budget in the whole presentation that makes it look like a kid friendly snuff film, especially with the Gingerbread Man. There's a reason Disney didn't like to talk about it and it was lost for decades.

    My very first time seeing Haunted Mansion Holiday was in 2019, because my friends bought me Disneyland tickets as a going away present. I was moving back to the East Coast and they wanted me to have a good experience before I left. That 50th anniversary Gingerbread house wowed me so much I felt such absolute joy in my heart. It's something I'll never forget, not ever.

  • @EthalaRide
    @EthalaRide Před 2 lety +6

    I like how in the 2021 gingerbread house, there's the XX in the mouth of the killer wreath (wreath wraith??) because XX is the roman numeral for 20, and it's the 20th house, but also year 2020 just got EXED out, so it's like, 'yeah we didn't have a 2020 20th house, but we still put sort of a reference to the fact that we don't.' lol.

  • @MollyKillers
    @MollyKillers Před 2 lety +6

    A few months ago I watched this Disney special about how they transform the park for Christmas and the haunted mansion part was the coolest! While I don’t personally like the overlay (nightmare, while being completely up my ally, has never been a favorite of mine) I always enjoy it from a work perspective as the amount of work that goes into it is just so impressive!
    One of the cast members has been like somewhat in charge of the houses since day one and every year he puts a little Easter egg on it for his daughter (I believe it’s a hidden Mickey but it’s been a couple months since I saw the special so I’m not positive).

    Say, with what you mentioned about all the "Ginger-Dead Houses" having strange angles and nothing is even, it made me think about the first lyrics of "What Else Can I Do?" from "Encanto":
    "I just made something unexpected,
    Something sharp, something new,
    It's not symmetrical, or perfect, but it's beautiful, and it's mine,
    What else can I do?"

    I’ve been to Disneyland at Christmas twice now (in 2018, which was wild since it wasn’t long after they shut down) and then actively right now. The gingerbread house in 2018 was crazy cool, but the one this year is ON A DIFFERENT LEVEL. I mean, it is massive and imposing and awesome. That being said, the first few are super cool because the art is so entirely unique. The evolution was cool.
