5
00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:13,600

We just found a whole new way to

16
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,200
enjoy our trips to the Disney 
Parks. 

17
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:50,960
Where in the park is a signature
theme park seek and find game? 

18
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,360
Each game features images 
showcasing unique and often 

19
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,280
overlooked details. 
Inside the parks, players 

20
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,280
explore the park at their own 
pace, looking for each image, 

21
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,840
play solo or team up with 
friends and family. 

22
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,040
This makes the perfect addition 
to a park day, whether it's your

23
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,360
first visit or your 100th.

Dinklehoppers, we are back with 
a new episode and it is top ten 

37
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,400
week. 
And this top ten list I'm 

38
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,280
actually not as nervous about 
really. 

39
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,520
I know it's, I mean, it's one of
those like it is what it is. 

40
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,880
This is my list and I feel 
pretty good about it. 

41
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,240
I think there's one that you're 
gonna hate in particular, but. 

42
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,640
No, no, I'm proud of you though.
Like that's progress, right? 

43
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,480
That's that's new for you. 
I'm really, I'm really happy for

44
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:21,360
you. 
Thanks. 

45
00:02:21,640 --> 00:02:25,760
Look at that new year, new you. 
I mean, it's May, but well, 

46
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:26,680
that's fine. 
That's fair. 

47
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,240
Yeah. 
So we do have a really fun top 

48
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,920
ten list that we're excited to 
share with you guys this week on

49
00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:34,680
this episode. 
But before we get into that, we 

50
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,560
wanted to share that we had a 
really special day today. 

51
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,880
We did. 
We got to talk to one of our 

52
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,840
listeners, our friend Christine 
from Holland. 

53
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,720
This was so fun. 
It was so fun and she is such a 

54
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,720
sweetheart and she's been 
listening to the podcast for 

55
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,240
over a year now and she's 
followed us on Instagram and 

56
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,760
she's always so good to share 
her thoughts and just 

57
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,800
everything, but like, she's so 
freaking. 

58
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,800
Cool, I know. 
And she's been to every single 

59
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,560
Disney park. 
Yeah, all of them around the 

60
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,480
world. 
Right goals, goals. 

61
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,640
Yeah, goals. 
But no, she reached out to us 

62
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:11,360
because she knew that we were 
getting ready to go to Tokyo. 

63
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,960
Yeah. 
And she was sharing tips with us

64
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,400
and then we just kind of got off
the rails talking just about 

65
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:22,000
Disney in general. 
But like you guys, I don't know 

66
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,000
it just she made a comment and 
she's like, you guys really are 

67
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,200
as genuine as you sound on the 
episodes. 

68
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,320
And that was so sweet. 
But we just want to say like 

69
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,440
thank you for listening, 
Christine. 

70
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:34,880
Thank you for reaching out to 
us. 

71
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,520
Like this was truly a treat and 
a pleasure for us to talk to 

72
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,520
you. 
And we have so many other 

73
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:41,800
friends that we've made through 
this. 

74
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,560
And just like y'all, if you need
a friend, like we will be your 

75
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,840
friends. 
We're just so happy to meet 

76
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:54,240
amazing people and connect over 
Disney wherever you are in the 

77
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,240
world. 
We set up a Zoom call and it was

78
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,880
just really, really fun. 
So Christine, thank you for 

79
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,440
reaching out to us. 
Thank you for being a 

80
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,760
Dinglehopper and just really 
making our day extra magical and

81
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,360
special today. 
Yeah, and I can't wait to, like,

82
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,160
debrief with her, say the right 
word, Yeah, on Tokyo. 

83
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,000
Yeah, I know. 
She's like, OK, after you get 

84
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,600
back, I want to know about this,
this and this. 

85
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,560
She gave us some homework and 
we're going to do it and it's 

86
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,360
going to be awesome. 
Yeah, it's going to be great. 

87
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:24,240
Yeah. 
Anytime you guys like this is 

88
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,480
what we're here for. 
We enjoy this and we enjoy doing

89
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,480
it with you guys just as much as
we enjoy doing this for 

90
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,720
ourselves. 
So it was really awesome. 

91
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:32,680
It was great. 
Yeah. 

92
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,320
All right, let's get down to 
business. 

93
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,920
I'm still not nervous. 
I'm really kind of waiting for 

94
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,640
you to, like, go off the edge, 
but no, I'm really happy for you

95
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,520
because again, like, you just 
got to own it. 

96
00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:50,400
Yeah, you got to own it. 
Yep, What is the topic this 

97
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,440
week? 
So we actually got this. 

98
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,560
We've had this idea for a little
bit, but after we did our top 

99
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,320
ten queue lines, we mentioned in
that episode where like we 

100
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,080
should do pre shows. 
Yeah. 

101
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,040
And there were several people 
that reached out and was like, 

102
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,520
yes, absolutely do pre shows. 
Yeah. 

103
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,560
So here we are, Top 10 Disney 
pre shows. 

104
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,000
Which is really crazy because we
went through every one of the 

105
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,680
parks in the US, Disneyland and 
Disney World. 

106
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:16,480
Correct. 
Yeah. 

107
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,240
And we went through every ride. 
They're honestly not as many pre

108
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,560
shows as I thought there were. 
I know. 

109
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,800
So I I feel like there is going 
to be repeat for sure, Yeah. 

110
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,920
But where it lands on our list I
think is really going to differ.

111
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,680
No, for sure. 
And and honestly we kind of live

112
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,600
in a new world of theme parks 
where pre shows are absolutely a

113
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,440
part of it and it is calculated 
part of the design. 

114
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,000
And we'll talk about kind of our
opinions on how that adds to the

115
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,800
experience for the ride itself. 
But I guess once we started 

116
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,080
going through I was almost 
disappointed there weren't more 

117
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,640
pre shows which I never thought 
I would ever hear myself say. 

118
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,200
Yeah. 
And we said a pre show again, 

119
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,760
it's not the queue line, it's 
not when you're walking through 

120
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:02,280
the line, this is you go through
the line, you stop, there is a 

121
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:06,400
physical like show something 
that you see and then you 

122
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,720
continue throughout the queue 
line and board the ride vehicle.

123
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,080
Yep, that's it. 
Yeah. 

124
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,760
So with that, before we get into
the top 10, do you have any 

125
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,000
honorable mentions? 
So I I do have an honorable 

126
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,480
mention. 
OK, this one didn't make my list

127
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,000
only because it's no longer it's
extinct. 

128
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:31,080
Wait, hold up. 
OK, One, if it's what I think it

129
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:35,080
is, well played. 
Two, I also have an honorable 

130
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,360
mention that I put there because
it is no longer in the parks. 

131
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,240
OK. 
What's yours? 

132
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,840
So mine's dinosaur. 
Nice, that's what I thought. 

133
00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:45,040
We can't. 
Well played. 

134
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,920
Mine is actually Muppet Vision 
3D. 

135
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,520
OK. 
So tell us a little bit about. 

136
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,640
Dinosaur. 
So I think the reason again, 

137
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,920
this one's honorable mention 
because it's extinct, it's not 

138
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,560
in the parks anymore, so you 
can't see this pre show anymore.

139
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,000
And I think it was I mean at the
time it was definitely like 

140
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,200
outdated and I think everyone 
was like, yes, this one needs an

141
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,680
update, which again is a reason 
why it's just an honorable 

142
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,640
mention. 
Is there are ones that are much 

143
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,720
better but it's also like a 
classic. 

144
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,480
Yeah, in a lot of ways it was 
and it kind of set the tone for 

145
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,720
the whole ride experience. 
Like if you did not get the pre 

146
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:24,840
show you would be like OK why am
I driving through this prime 

147
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,480
primordial world and. 
Exactly. 

148
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,400
Who's what's Dino and. 
Yep, exactly. 

149
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,000
Yeah, it was. 
It was kind of fun and it was a 

150
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,000
fun premise. 
And like, the main dude who was 

151
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,000
talking about it, like, I don't 
know, he was just kind of a 

152
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,280
lovable goofball, you know? 
I don't know. 

153
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:41,760
I kind of miss it now. 
Yeah. 

154
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:43,520
I. 
Think a lot of people miss that 

155
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:44,320
ride in general. 
I. 

156
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,080
Know and again you guys Indiana 
Jones was way better than 

157
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,880
dinosaur. 
I said what I said come at me, I

158
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,240
don't care. 
However I love dinosaurs. 

159
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,760
I have since I was a little kid 
and I really want to know what 

160
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,320
happened to all the fossils. 
Where are they? 

161
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,960
Yeah, they should come over to 
Disneyland. 

162
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,840
They should come over to my 
backyard. 

163
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:09,080
Well, OK, I meant that would 
take up our entire backyard. 

164
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,200
How? 
Cool would we be? 

165
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,080
How much cooler? 
Sorry. 

166
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,520
We are cool. 
You hear that kids? 

167
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,480
Your parents are cool. 
Your face, we are cool. 

168
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,840
No but seriously, they should 
take all of the dyno related 

169
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:27,800
things, bring them over to 
Disneyland and put them in the 

170
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,280
Disneyland Railroad. 
Like redo that entire section 

171
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,600
between, what is it Tomorrowland
and Main Street. 

172
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,360
Like the tunnel? 
Yeah, redo that entire tunnel. 

173
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,400
You say that you know people 
would riot. 

174
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,559
Oh, I know. 
But it would be really cool just

175
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,880
to have like the actual fossils 
and like the animatronics and 

176
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:45,880
everything. 
That would be sweet. 

177
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,720
Anyway, got off on a tangent, so
Muppets was your. 

178
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,800
Vision through yeah listen we 
got some friends over in the 

179
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,400
Disney verse who just love 
themselves some Muppets. 

180
00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:00,000
I honestly love that pre show 
like 1 you get inside out of the

181
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,320
heat. 
OK, you had me. 

182
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:04,920
At AC true. 
But as you're waiting for that 

183
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,640
show to start, it was really fun
to see all those Muppet 

184
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,600
characters and the chickens and 
Gonzo and Rizzo. 

185
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,480
Like it was just fun. 
It was. 

186
00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:16,440
And I like, I don't know, there 
wasn't anything like 

187
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,480
groundbreaking or super 
important to your experience in 

188
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,720
Muppet Vision. 
It was just fun. 

189
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,200
And also, I mean, this is more 
of the cue, but there were a lot

190
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,520
of little Easter eggs and things
in that room. 

191
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,040
And as you sat there, it was 
like no, like 1. 

192
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,520
You get to sit in the AC2, you 
get a little pre show, like it 

193
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,080
was cool. 
Miss it. 

194
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,040
Yeah, now it's gone. 
Now it's gone. 

195
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,320
So I don't know. 
Done. 

196
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,560
Anyway, let's jump in. 
Let's do it. 

197
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,400
Top ten. 
What is your number 10? 

198
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:52,160
My number 10 is Tower of Terror 
in Hollywood Studios. 

199
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,480
Gotcha. 
And I think that and I get like 

200
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,120
it's, it's the video, but it's 
also the room that the video the

201
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,280
pre show is in. 
So I kind of took that into 

202
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,680
account is the video as well as 
what you're looking at while 

203
00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:08,240
you're watching the video. 
But that is another one where if

204
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:12,440
you don't see that video, you 
are not going to understand. 

205
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,800
Yeah, the rest of the ride, 
which I feel like is a lot of 

206
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:16,720
the pre show, I guess most pre 
shows. 

207
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,520
I think so, and I think that's 
why pre shows were put into the 

208
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,600
ride experience to be honest, is
it gave you a chance to do some 

209
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,480
additional storytelling and, and
I think this is a good point to 

210
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,600
mention like one ride that does 
not have a pre show that I wish 

211
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,040
did is Big Thunder Mountain. 
Oh, that would be. 

212
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,480
Legit, because there is this 
whole back story about, you 

213
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,000
know, like digging too deep and 
you know, the cars like kind of 

214
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,920
are possessed and stuff and like
who the the Baron is and stuff. 

215
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,400
Like it's really cool. 
But you unless you like, no, you

216
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,400
don't find that out. 
And we learned that when we were

217
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,840
watching the Imagineering story 
and beyond the attraction on 

218
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,600
Disney Plus. 
And it was like, oh, I mean, 

219
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,080
like, I know it's the wildest 
ride in the wilderness, but I 

220
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,160
didn't know why. 
That's true. 

221
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,640
So if there was a pre show, 
maybe you had the chance to tell

222
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,240
that back story. 
So I like I get why the pre 

223
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,240
shows are a thing now and I know
people are kind of like anti 

224
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,120
screen and we love our old 
school animatronics. 

225
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:17,640
So do we, but it does paint a 
picture for the writing explains

226
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,240
like OK, well why is that glass 
breaking or this ticking clock 

227
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,600
or the random eyeball? 
Yeah, it's because it tells you 

228
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,200
you're about to enter. 
Yeah, the twilight zone. 

229
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,320
Yeah, so. 
All right, Yeah, that was my 

230
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,600
#10. 
Nice, did not make my list. 

231
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,920
OK. 
That was probably the first one 

232
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:35,720
out. 
OK. 

233
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,360
Womp womp. 
So I'm glad it made yours. 

234
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,560
My number 10 is Smugglers Run. 
OK. 

235
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:46,480
So I honestly think the main 
reason this made my list because

236
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,240
in the grand scheme of things, 
did it really like do that much 

237
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,280
for you? 
I mean, it did, but it didn't 

238
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,320
because once you get on the 
ride, it kind of tells you the 

239
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,840
purpose and about getting the 
coaxium and all that. 

240
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,840
But it does introduce Hondo. 
And the thing that really stuck 

241
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,720
out to me, though, is that 
animatronic was really legit. 

242
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,440
Yeah. 
And I love that. 

243
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,360
Again, like it, it pulls you 
through the queue, which is 

244
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,680
really cool and all, But once 
you get in that room, like, 

245
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,640
that's when your ride experience
starts. 

246
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:17,920
And I just think it's really 
fun. 

247
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,000
And again, that animatronic is 
really great. 

248
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:21,360
Yeah. 
So yeah. 

249
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:22,600
Yeah. 
Smugglers run. 

250
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,160
Nothing to write home about, but
cool. 

251
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,080
As a Star Wars fan, I'm like, 
all right, yeah, you piqued my 

252
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:28,760
interest. 
That's. 

253
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,120
True. 
Yeah, that one spoiler alert did

254
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:37,280
not make my list, but I've only 
ever been on Smugglers Run once.

255
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:38,920
Yeah, and I was like, never 
again. 

256
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,000
One and done. 
One and done so. 

257
00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:45,040
You know, bless the children and
that they have the opportunity 

258
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,600
to pilot the Falcon, but those 
kids don't know how good they 

259
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,200
have it. 
You should not be controlling 

260
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,640
the Falcon. 
I would do much better, yeah, if

261
00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:56,160
we did. 
Not try you're darn pilot. 

262
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:04,160
Yeah, OK #9 my #9 is Tron. 
Oh wow, at 9:00. 

263
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,160
Yeah. 
And I think the reason I put it 

264
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:11,760
so low on the list is because I 
the, I remember the first time 

265
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,760
going through that queue and you
kind of turn the corner and 

266
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,040
you're looking at this glass and
you're like, what is this? 

267
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,720
And then all of a sudden you're 
being digitized. 

268
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,240
Yeah. 
And then the glass like becomes 

269
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,440
clear and you can see the ride 
vehicle and it just like takes 

270
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,880
off. 
Amazing, love it. 

271
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,680
However, the last two Times Now 
again, we don't go to Disney 

272
00:13:32,680 --> 00:13:34,720
World all that often. 
So the last time we were there 

273
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,880
was November. 
You weren't digitized like that 

274
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:43,400
glass was clear the entire time.
Like you didn't actually stop 

275
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:44,640
there. 
Like the first time we were on 

276
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,120
that ride, you stopped, saw it 
and then moved on. 

277
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,200
Whereas at least the last, like 
I said, two or three times that 

278
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,320
we went, it was just like, hey, 
it's already clear. 

279
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,800
Like just keep walking through 
the queue. 

280
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,680
I have thoughts and I have 
feelings that I will keep to 

281
00:14:01,680 --> 00:14:04,400
myself for now. 
Spoiler alert, you'll hear about

282
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,920
this again. 
But that's valid. 

283
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:11,360
Like if they don't stop you and 
you don't get to experience 

284
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,960
that, it is a missed 
opportunity. 

285
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,000
Yeah. 
Like it is something that 

286
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,160
doesn't really make or break 
your experience on the ride. 

287
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:24,040
No, But it is something that is 
really, really cool. 

288
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:28,200
But I would also argue without 
that it's not really like a pre 

289
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,360
show. 
No it's fair because then you're

290
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,840
just continuing throughout like 
the entire queue. 

291
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,920
You're not actually like, 
stopping to see anything. 

292
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,560
I'm with you. 
I know I agree. 

293
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:45,240
We'll come back to this OK? 
My #9 is a classic for sure. 

294
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,000
It's Soren. 
At 9:00. 

295
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,280
At 9:00 What? 
Listen, I love Patrick as much 

296
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,400
as anybody. 
I always laugh whenever the dude

297
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:59,000
takes off his Mickey ears and I 
love that the little kid gives 

298
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,440
him the thumbs up and the nice 
work pal. 

299
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:06,880
But like, does it really do 
anything for your experience on 

300
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,520
the ride at 9? 
At 9 it's classic. 

301
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,920
It belongs in the top 10. 
It made it. 

302
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:18,720
But there are just so many other
cooler pre shows. 8 of them to 

303
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,760
be exact for me. 
For me it's a classic. 

304
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:27,440
But again, it's I don't know, it
doesn't do much. 

305
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,720
Like speechless right now. 
Wow, OK. 

306
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:38,040
Yeah, sure. 
OK. 

307
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:42,480
Well, I guess I'm sleeping out 
back tonight in the yard. 

308
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,600
I shocked really. 
I mean, I didn't think you would

309
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,880
make like top three, but I 
thought at least top five for 

310
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,480
you. 
I mean I like it and all it's 

311
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,400
cool but it's just like funny 
haha. 

312
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,280
But like, does it really? 
I don't know. 

313
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,000
It's Patrick. 
I know that's why I said he's 

314
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,560
classic, he's iconic, but I 
would argue that there are eight

315
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,680
other pre shows that are more 
important, more impactful and 

316
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,320
more meaningful. 
OK. 

317
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,280
I feel like we're going to talk 
about this again. 

318
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:15,760
Oh yeah. 
OK, very well. 

319
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:20,760
Moving on. 
Moving on. #8 #8 so my number 8 

320
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:25,880
was Guardians mission breakout. 
That was my #8 as well. 

321
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,280
See. 
OK guys, it's all right. 

322
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,280
Hey, Mom and dad are OK. 
Yeah, we're OK. 

323
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,920
It's OK, guys. 
Yeah, so I actually saw that pre

324
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,880
show for the very first time 
when we went in March. 

325
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,040
Yeah, when we went March with 
the kids because I. 

326
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:47,120
On a VIP tour, right? 
Flex because I just that's one 

327
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,440
ride that for whatever reason, 
the time of day that we end up 

328
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:55,840
doing it, I'm just like, I'm not
in a mental state to be able to 

329
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,760
do this right. 
So that was the first time that 

330
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,200
I saw that pre show. 
It was so cute. 

331
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,240
No, it's with. 
Rocket like that animatronic is 

332
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:04,839
really cute. 
Well, and there's a lot that 

333
00:17:04,839 --> 00:17:07,680
goes into that too, because it's
not that he just like pops out, 

334
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,200
like he falls down through the 
vent, you see his tail and then 

335
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,800
he pops up and he even grabs 
quills walking. 

336
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,839
Gonna say Yep. 
Which is awesome. 

337
00:17:16,839 --> 00:17:20,200
But you know, like that, that 
pre show really does set the 

338
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,960
tone for what you're doing 
because, again, especially where

339
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,800
they reimagine that ride, like 
if you don't have the pre show, 

340
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,359
you'd be like, what is 
happening? 

341
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:29,720
Yeah. 
And it does. 

342
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:33,520
It tells you the story, like, 
and it plays to the characters 

343
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,800
in the movie and the Marvel 
Universe perfectly. 

344
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,760
Like they get captured 
logically. 

345
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,760
Rocket escapes, and now we're 
going to help him free the 

346
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,480
Guardians. 
Yeah, awesome. 

347
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,760
But one thing again I took into 
consideration the like room 

348
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,640
itself. 
So I also loved our VIP tour 

349
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:55,360
guide pointed out in our room it
was a hidden there is like a 

350
00:17:55,360 --> 00:17:57,960
legit hidden Mickey. 
In Oh yeah, no, it's cool. 

351
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,920
Shout out to Haley. 
Yeah, 'cause that was awesome. 

352
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,840
But no, there's like all sorts 
of cool stuff in there. 

353
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,840
And I, I mean, again, I know 
that there are purists out there

354
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,280
who miss the Tower of Terror. 
I get you, I hear you. 

355
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,040
But the way that they transform 
that it actually worked. 

356
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,240
And a lot of the, the similar 
relics and things that were in 

357
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,000
the Tower of Terror are still 
there. 

358
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,280
But it's just, it's cool. 
Yeah, and I could post that 

359
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:23,880
picture over on our Patreon 
page. 

360
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,080
Yeah, you should. 
Yeah, of the little Mickey. 

361
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,520
Come hang out with us on 
Patreon, by the way. 

362
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,400
It's a cool place. 
There's a lot of cool stuff 

363
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,240
there. 
Bonus content, it's free to 

364
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,880
join, there's some exclusive 
stuff that you can pay for. 

365
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,240
It's really rat. 
Yeah, we just actually recently 

366
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,960
revamped our whole page too. 
We sure did, and it's awesome, 

367
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:42,000
Yeah. 
Anyway. 

368
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,120
Yeah, that was my #8 as well. 
And again, I just, I think it's 

369
00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:49,720
solid. 
And again, it, it really did. 

370
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,400
I think that was what tied the 
reimagining altogether. 

371
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,600
Was that pre show? 
They they nailed the pre show. 

372
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,000
Yeah. 
It was awesome, yeah #7. 

373
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,440
So I still stand by what I said.
I'm not nervous. 

374
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,520
This is my list. 
Is this the one? 

375
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,320
It is what it is. 
I I'm going to get heat for this

376
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,760
one. 
I feel like I have guardians 

377
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:16,080
cosmic rewind at 7 at 7:00. 
Holy smokes, what? 

378
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,840
So again, it's a ride that I 
don't go on. 

379
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,320
Sure. 
So again, I don't really have 

380
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,360
that emotional connection to it.
I've only been in through that 

381
00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:28,400
pre show once and that was 
actually back in November when 

382
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,560
we went. 
That was the very first time I 

383
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:32,600
went through that entire pre 
show. 

384
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,680
OK, I mean you your face right 
now. 

385
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,080
I'm just confused. 
I'm like, where are you going 

386
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,880
with this? 
Because yeah, I, I mean, I'm 

387
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,920
checking our Ring camera. 
Oh God, there are not. 

388
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:47,600
Is that, is that a pitchforks? 
There's pitchforks. 

389
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,000
Probably, but I mean I'm sure we
will get your feelings later. 

390
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,760
Yeah, I would imagine it's 
probably top three for you, if I

391
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,080
had to take a guess. 
Spoiler alert, it is top. 3 for 

392
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:02,000
me I guess I just the reason it 
is so low is it again, it is a 

393
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:07,160
great pre show awesome effects. 
Sure it's much more modern to 

394
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,680
like the technology. 
It's not like an older pre show.

395
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,960
It's just not one that I. 
Honestly, it really just comes 

396
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,880
down to I don't have that 
emotional connection with it 

397
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:15,360
all. 
Right. 

398
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,240
Well, I mean, there's no arguing
that. 

399
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,680
But that is, wow. 
I mean, that's low. 

400
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,360
That's low even for you. 
No, I'm just kidding. 

401
00:20:23,360 --> 00:20:25,960
I'm kidding. 
All I can say is I'm sorry. 

402
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,960
All right, all right. 
George McFly. 

403
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:37,560
OK, my #7 I I'm, I get, I'm 
like, I get your reasoning. 

404
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,600
I don't disagree with your 
reasoning. 

405
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,480
I still think #8 though is 
really low for what that show 

406
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,480
is. 7. 
Or seven. 

407
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:52,000
Sorry, still low, still low. 
My #7 is flight of passage. 

408
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:59,080
OK, here's why it's not. 
I mean, again, the queue is 

409
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:03,720
fantastic on that ride and I do 
think like the pre show is 

410
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,560
important because like, that's 
where they connect you with the 

411
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,760
Banshee and like, it does set 
the tone for the ride and it is 

412
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,760
cool. 
But I also think like it almost 

413
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,280
takes too long. 
It almost feels like you're in 

414
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:20,880
there forever, you know? 
And again, like it is really 

415
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,040
neat. 
I will admit I'm not the biggest

416
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,640
Avatar fan in the world. 
Yeah, but I mean, it is cool. 

417
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,640
It's not that I have any problem
with it. 

418
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,360
I think I wanted to have it 
higher, but when it really came 

419
00:21:32,360 --> 00:21:36,000
down to it, I think it's like, 
yeah, I mean, it's cool, 

420
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:40,440
definitely important, but it's 
just, yeah, personal preference.

421
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,800
It landed at 7:00. 
OK, so flight of passage was my 

422
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,560
number six. 
OK, awesome. 

423
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,240
Yeah, so. 
Let us continue the. 

424
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,800
Same, yeah, on the same kind of 
wavelength here. 

425
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:56,360
So the reason that this one is I
think higher than Cosmic Rewind 

426
00:21:56,360 --> 00:22:00,800
is just I think there's those 
more interactive elements to it 

427
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,680
because you're being matched 
with your Banshee, you're 

428
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,480
getting scanned. 
Yeah, you do get connected to 

429
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,920
your avatar, correct? 
So that is cool. 

430
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,960
I end up with a female avatar 
almost every time, which you 

431
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:16,280
know what? 
I'm I'm all for the females so 

432
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,520
sure, but it just feels a little
weird sometimes. 

433
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:23,320
I do agree that it is. 
It is definitely a longer pre 

434
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:24,800
show. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

435
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,120
But I think there is a lot more 
to do. 

436
00:22:27,120 --> 00:22:31,280
And again, even just the ride, 
the technology on that ride and 

437
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,240
the technology in the pre show 
are just, I mean, they're top 

438
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:35,360
notch. 
No, they are. 

439
00:22:35,360 --> 00:22:37,600
I mean, like, that is the one I 
struggled with more than 

440
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,920
anything else on my list. 
And I I just really think it 

441
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,400
came down to personal 
preference. 

442
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,560
Yeah, you were absolutely right 
on all accounts. 

443
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,640
Yeah, I just, for me, yeah. 
I'm just not the biggest Avatar 

444
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:49,560
fan. 
No, I agree. 

445
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,880
Yeah. 
Cool, awesome, right though? 

446
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,840
Yeah. 
So that was my number six. 

447
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,440
OK, my number six, which I feel 
like you might be surprised that

448
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:02,160
as well, but it's going to be 
Spider Man web slingers at six. 

449
00:23:02,360 --> 00:23:04,800
OK, I'm OK with it. 
OK, sweet. 

450
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:10,440
Awesome. 
I will say that it is perfect in

451
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,600
the pre show. 
Like it does everything you need

452
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,920
a pre show to do. 
It brings an iconic character to

453
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,640
life. 
It tells you like lays the 

454
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,040
groundwork for the ride itself. 
It builds the suspense and 

455
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,480
excitement. 
You know exactly what you need 

456
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,520
to do going into the ride or 
what to expect. 

457
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,640
So in that way it's really 
perfect. 

458
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:35,480
I mean, I just, I don't have any
complaints about it other than 

459
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,920
like, it's really cool. 
It doesn't have the wow factor 

460
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,000
for me, but it's really cool and
I love that. 

461
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,960
Again, you are set to go on that
ride. 

462
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,400
You're hyped for it. 
It's everything a pre show 

463
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,760
should be. 
Yeah, like no notes. 

464
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,080
Yeah, I agree. 
OK, totally agree. 

465
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,080
OK, it's my number six. 
All right. 

466
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,160
What's your #5? 
Because we're in the top five. 

467
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,000
We're in the top five. 
Is it? 

468
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,480
What is it? 
Is it web slingers? 

469
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:00,440
No. 
Wow. 

470
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,320
It is Sauron. 
OK. 

471
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:08,720
I just, I'm so I'm not upset, 
I'm just surprised. 

472
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:15,840
That you're just disappointed I.
Mean no, not disappointed, and 

473
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,400
you do you. 
Understand why. 

474
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:23,400
Though so I guess my it is just 
that is a classic. 

475
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,800
Like it is just so like the 
classic lines. 

476
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,240
There's T-shirts. 
Like that is everything that I 

477
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:35,920
think a pre show could be. 
Listen, pause, pause really 

478
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:39,840
quick. 
We're doing like an Uncle Bob's 

479
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,200
reverse mailbox. 
I don't know, I guess it's still

480
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:44,960
a mailbox. 
We're just like we're sending a 

481
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:49,840
very kind hearted light threat 
to cousin Josh and Uncle Bob. 

482
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,880
Like don't ever change that 
video. 

483
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,520
By the way, that's the never 
update it. 

484
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:59,600
That is the thing and I remember
I forget like they redid that 

485
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:04,320
whole pre show for I forget what
it was for but I remember seeing

486
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,480
a video it was like Patrick was 
updated. 

487
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,280
They even brought the guy back 
that had the ears I. 

488
00:25:09,360 --> 00:25:12,000
Don't even remember that. 
Did I just block it from my 

489
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,000
memory because it was awful? 
I forget why they filmed it if 

490
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:19,280
it was for an anniversary or 
I'll find it OK and I'll show it

491
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,600
to you but they redid it and 
it's hilarious but like you 

492
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:27,480
can't change the original I get.
That and I do love it. 

493
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:31,560
I'm just saying like, it's just 
when you stack it against the 

494
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:36,040
other ones, there's just so many
others that are cooler and 

495
00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,680
better. 
It doesn't mean it's not 

496
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,840
important. 
It doesn't mean it's not iconic.

497
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,360
I still cherish it in my heart. 
Patrick is still my boy. 

498
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,400
Yeah, nice work, pal. 
Yeah, but again, like I'm. 

499
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,960
I'm see we balance things out. 
I'm glad that it's your number 

500
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:53,880
5. 
It is all. 

501
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,720
Right. 
OK. 

502
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,400
Well, my number 5, you've 
already mentioned it, it is 

503
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,360
Tron. 
OK. 

504
00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:06,120
And I will say that I think it 
it to all of the reasons you 

505
00:26:06,120 --> 00:26:08,920
said it is key. 
It is super important to the 

506
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:13,200
story and everything there. 
But like, it is the wow factor, 

507
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,000
the very first time we 
experienced that when we got 

508
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,960
digitized. 
And then just that, I mean, that

509
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,040
transition, it's just immediate,
like just in a blink of an eye, 

510
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:28,880
all of a sudden the glass clears
and you get to see the ride and 

511
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:29,920
it's awesome. 
Yeah. 

512
00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:33,480
Like to the point that you're 
like, Oh my gosh, am I really 

513
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,200
sure I want to go on this 
because it just. 

514
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,400
Totally, Yeah. 
It just takes your breath away. 

515
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,960
Yep, and that's why like when 
it's on it is the best and I 

516
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,400
fully respect that. 
You're right. 

517
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,760
If it's not on, especially like 
towards the end of the night 

518
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,520
when they're just like running 
people through, they usually 

519
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,760
don't have it on. 
But like that wow factor for me.

520
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,480
Pure magic. 
And I thought it was the perfect

521
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:58,960
way for this hyped up major 
attraction that took forever in 

522
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:00,640
a day to finish in Walt Disney 
World. 

523
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:01,440
Yeah. 
No. 

524
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:02,840
Serious. 
It was the perfect thing to be 

525
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,160
like, Oh my gosh, it's real. 
Well, because I remember the 

526
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,600
first time, like I said, you 
round the corner and you're in 

527
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,920
this little tiny room. 
And you're just, it's not very 

528
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,400
big. 
You're in a freaking closet. 

529
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,880
No. 
And we tried to go spoiler free.

530
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,120
So we're just like standing 
there and we're like, what? 

531
00:27:16,120 --> 00:27:18,160
What are we standing here for? 
Like what are we doing? 

532
00:27:18,360 --> 00:27:20,200
And then all of a sudden you 
hear the voice and you're like, 

533
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,760
you're being digitized. 
And then it just appears. 

534
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,000
And yeah, you have, I have that 
feeling you're like, oh, this 

535
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,520
goes much faster than I thought 
it would. 

536
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:30,520
Yeah, well, no, and it's like an
audible gasp from everybody else

537
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,640
that's with you. 
Like, it is cool, guys. 

538
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:34,560
Yeah. 
If you have an experience that 

539
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,960
like, keep writing Tron until it
comes back if you haven't had it

540
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:39,600
yet. 
But yeah, it is. 

541
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,960
It is awesome. 
So when it's on, that's why. 

542
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,200
I mean, wow factor for sure. 
It's top five for me. 

543
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:51,520
Yeah #4. 
OK, my #4 I really wanted to put

544
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:55,120
this one top three, OK, but I 
felt peer pressure. 

545
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,000
From who? 
You what? 

546
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:57,800
Me. 
No. 

547
00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,840
So I put it at 4:00. 
What? 

548
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,560
In my heart, I still think I 
would put it at 3, but I put it 

549
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:04,280
at 4:00. 
What? 

550
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,400
It's web. 
OK. 

551
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,120
It's web slingers, OK. 
It's higher than I put it. 

552
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,320
Yeah, and I mean, for all of the
reasons you said, it's just got 

553
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:16,000
the iconic character. 
It explains the ride so well. 

554
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,560
It's just funny. 
It's a it's a pre show that like

555
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,040
for whatever reason I laugh 
every single time. 

556
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:27,920
I can recite probably the entire
pre show and I will never forget

557
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:32,600
when we went to Disneyland Paris
to hear that entire pre show in 

558
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:38,840
French was freaking hilarious. 
Like to hear the voice and it's 

559
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,160
instead of Spider Man, it 
sounded like Spooterman and it 

560
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,600
was hilarious. 
Like so. 

561
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,800
Oh, that's awesome, so funny. 
No, that's good. 

562
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,680
I think in my heart I wanted to 
put that one top three, but I 

563
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:59,520
felt peer pressure by another 
ride that I couldn't OK quite 

564
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,520
put that one top three. 
Interesting. 

565
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:06,880
So it's 4. 
OK, so there is one ride that 

566
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:11,000
you have not mentioned yet that 
I was very curious as to where 

567
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,680
it landed and I hope it makes 
your top three. 

568
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:15,760
Well I only have 3 left. 
I know. 

569
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,800
So we'll see. 
OK. 

570
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,120
My number 4 though, yeah, is 
runaway railway. 

571
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:25,600
OK, that was probably one that I
was like, oh, that could be top 

572
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,560
three, but I'm I'm very happy 
with my top three with my 

573
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:33,200
podium. 
Runaway Railway, though, like 

574
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,800
the song, everybody sings it, 
you're all there. 

575
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:41,400
And like without fail, there is 
always one person, one kid, 

576
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:46,920
someone that when the surprise 
happens, you know, the screen 

577
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:51,560
raises the smoke billows out it 
like somebody's excited, you 

578
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,680
know, like seeing it for the 
first time and it is awesome. 

579
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,480
I also love it as a little 
thing, but I love that the cast 

580
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,000
member interacts with goofy. 
Yep. 

581
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,240
And like that is the moment that
it pulls you into the cartoon. 

582
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,320
Totally. 
Masterfully done. 

583
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,200
Totally awesome. 
Totally. 

584
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:12,960
Yep, we'll talk about it. 
OK, no, but it is cool and I 

585
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,440
also love that compared to all 
the other pre shows, this one 

586
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,480
actually has more elements. 
It has smell, you know, sight, 

587
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,280
the feel, the touch on your face
when that smoke comes out. 

588
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:28,240
Like it is really cool and it it
it broke my heart to not put it 

589
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:32,120
top three, but like that does 
not take away from how awesome 

590
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,000
it is. 
Like they crushed it. 

591
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,560
And again, that song, the 
freaking song. 

592
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,640
Yeah, amazing. 
Yeah, KK top three. 

593
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,520
Top three. 
So jumping ahead a little bit, 

594
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:48,920
just in general, my number one, 
I didn't expect it to be my 

595
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:50,440
number. 
One interesting. 

596
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,760
But just making the list, I was 
like, yeah, that's it. 

597
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,280
So anyway, just wanted to say 
that before I did this. 

598
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,120
Don't hate me, OK? 
It podiumed. 

599
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,960
All right. 
But my number 3 is rise. 

600
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:05,720
Oh man. 
Of the resistance. 

601
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,280
No, it's OK. 
It's OK. 

602
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,320
It's all right. 
I really wanted to put it at 

603
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:14,680
four, OK, But I felt peer 
pressure because I'm like, as 

604
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:19,400
much as I have that emotional 
connection to web slingers, then

605
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:20,880
I do like Rise of the 
Resistance. 

606
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:25,200
How can you deny that pre show? 
Oh, it's, it's incredible. 

607
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,360
Like the line itself is 
incredible, but then, and I mean

608
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,520
you kind of have two separate 
ones almost because you have the

609
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,240
first one with Ray and BB8. 
Right. 

610
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,360
And that was, I mean, that's 
great in itself. 

611
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,240
And then you go out and you 
board the ship. 

612
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,080
Yep. 
And then all of a sudden, yeah, 

613
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,160
you go in one way and you're 
expecting to go out of the 

614
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,000
vehicle the opposite way. 
And then you come out of that 

615
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,640
vehicle and you're like, well, 
how did I end up here? 

616
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,080
I know. 
So just, but that whole pre show

617
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,400
in itself is awesome too. 
And I remember going on that for

618
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,440
the first time, like I was 
afraid because I was like, oh, 

619
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,480
is this too much of like a 
motion simulator? 

620
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:07,200
Like am I going to be OK? 
But totally, totally gentle and 

621
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,240
love it. 
And again, the story behind it, 

622
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,640
that just keeps the story 
flowing and it's just, it's 

623
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,360
awesome. 
It's incredible and we will talk

624
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:16,640
about it again. 
Oh, I know. 

625
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,160
But yeah, no, it's, it's 
awesome. 

626
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,880
It really is. 
And and I think whether or not 

627
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:26,280
you are a Star Wars fan, there 
is an element of surprise, 

628
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:31,520
suspense, just mind blowing 
effect that is really cool. 

629
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:36,040
So yeah, my #3 you mentioned it 
already. 

630
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,160
Guardians of the Galaxy, Cosmic 
Rewind. 

631
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:39,600
I kind of figured that would, 
yeah. 

632
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:44,080
OK, here's the thing guys, as 
much as I like it and I do like 

633
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,840
it and I think it's really cool,
this is not my favorite ride in 

634
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,920
Disney World or anywhere. 
I again, I think it's great. 

635
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,680
I know that there are some 
people, we have friends who 

636
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,840
absolutely love it. 
Like it is a must do for them 

637
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,280
every time they go. 
That's not me. 

638
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:03,680
I will say though that the way 
they did it because this pre 

639
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:07,520
show was tricky one. 
How do you fit Guardians of the 

640
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,720
Galaxy into Epcot? 
Oh, for sure, yeah. 

641
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,880
And I think that the pre show is
what was pivotal to making that 

642
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:19,920
work and where they talk about, 
hey, you're Terrans, we're going

643
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:24,600
to take you off planet. 
And you know, just the whole 

644
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,840
thing with Terry Crews, the 
comedy to it, you know, 

645
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:33,880
Epcotians and you know, all this
people of Epcot is really funny.

646
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:38,400
And I also like there's multiple
rooms to that pre show, which is

647
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,680
cool. 
And so again, if someone has not

648
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:45,800
been on Cosmic Rewind, just skip
ahead 30 seconds. 

649
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:49,520
But when you go into that second
room, this is the kicker for me 

650
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:50,760
why it's top three. 
Yeah. 

651
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,480
You walk in, you are completely 
surrounded. 

652
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:59,080
And then when the lights go out,
those walls shoot up so quickly.

653
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,200
Yeah, that you have no idea what
happened. 

654
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,560
It feels like you were 
transport. 

655
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,960
Literally a ship, yeah. 
And it is unbelievable. 

656
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,520
You're in the same room, but you
feel like you're in a completely

657
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,520
different room. 
Yeah, Yep, I agree. 

658
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,440
It is awesome and again, I love 
that you get to see the 

659
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:19,679
Guardians that they paint the 
storyline and it just sets the 

660
00:34:19,679 --> 00:34:24,120
tone for what you're doing. 
But no, it's it's that effect. 

661
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,440
Yeah, and maybe it's just me 
being a fan of like I want 

662
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,679
something mind blowing and wow 
factor, but yeah, it's cool. 

663
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,560
And in that part alone, I can 
see why people love it. 

664
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:38,040
I know it's because it's a 
thrill ride, but that that 

665
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:42,280
effect awesome. 
Yeah, and and it works cuz I was

666
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,639
very skeptical. 
How do you justify Guardians of 

667
00:34:45,639 --> 00:34:47,840
the Galaxy being an Epcot? 
And I think they crushed it and 

668
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:49,199
it's all thanks to the pre show.
Yeah. 

669
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,960
No, that's a great point. 
So I love that. 

670
00:34:52,199 --> 00:34:56,840
OK, let's go one more. 
What do you got top 2 now? 

671
00:34:56,840 --> 00:35:00,480
#2 My number 2 is runaway 
railway. 

672
00:35:00,720 --> 00:35:01,560
Oh, nice. 
OK. 

673
00:35:02,240 --> 00:35:06,040
And I remember the first time we
were on Runaway Railway, it was 

674
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,520
still technically like COVID, 
right? 

675
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,320
So they didn't have the pre 
show. 

676
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,720
So you just walked right through
the room. 

677
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,360
I know. 
So it was, it was much, much 

678
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:19,520
later, I think until we actually
experienced the pre show for the

679
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,040
first time. 
And I can't remember, it was 

680
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,120
probably Hollywood studios. 
I think it was probably the 

681
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,840
first time still, but yet like 
the first time you hear that 

682
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:31,040
song and then you just sing it 
the rest of the day. 

683
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,400
Like it is awesome. 
And I mean, to all the points 

684
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,880
that you had. 
And I do love the cast member 

685
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,840
interaction. 
And I think everybody can agree 

686
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:42,000
that like some cast members are,
you know, more interactive than 

687
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,720
others. 
But like just the fact that you 

688
00:35:44,720 --> 00:35:48,840
have that element in there. 
And I've even seen videos where 

689
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,120
sometimes the pre show isn't 
working. 

690
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,920
So then the cast member like in 
the middle of it, it breaks down

691
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,600
or whatever. 
So the cast member just 

692
00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:00,600
interacted like that entire or 
re enacted that entire pre show,

693
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,200
just like singing the song. 
Yeah. 

694
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:06,200
So just the fact that you can do
that, I, I love it. 

695
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,880
No, it's phenomenal. 
It really, it really is great. 

696
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,000
And I love that there's an 
additional meaning to it, like I

697
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,920
said, like it sucks you into the
cartoon because that is an 

698
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,400
important transformation that 
you don't really think about. 

699
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,440
Yeah, but that's how they get 
you into the story and. 

700
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,880
Poor and poor Pluto. 
Like I feel so bad. 

701
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:28,920
For I know justice for our boy, 
the good boy, Pluto, Like he he 

702
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:30,440
has a rough go of it. 
I know. 

703
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,680
Poor fella. 
I know, man. 

704
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,600
Yeah. 
All right. 

705
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,080
My number 2. 
And this is the classic of all 

706
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:42,280
classics. 
It is Haunted Mansion. 

707
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,160
OK. 
And it's the Disneyland version.

708
00:36:45,720 --> 00:36:49,200
I know it's the same, but it is 
not because the Disneyland 

709
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:53,960
version actually takes you down.
Yeah, to a whole other level. 

710
00:36:54,120 --> 00:37:00,120
But guys, like, I don't know. 
And any credit to Justin from 

711
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,440
Foolish Mortals and Happy Haunts
for helping us, like, take a 

712
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:07,080
whole other level of admiration 
and appreciation for this 

713
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:07,920
attraction. 
Yeah. 

714
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:12,040
But like, just when you look at 
it for what it is, like the 

715
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:15,280
first time you write it, it's 
like, what is happening? 

716
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,680
They just put me in this room. 
The doors closed behind me. 

717
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,840
And like, you don't really think
about it until the voice tells 

718
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,000
you the narrator's like, there's
no windows and no doors. 

719
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,600
And then you're like, hold up, 
we're moving, aren't we? 

720
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:32,800
And then like the pictures that 
expand the portraits and then 

721
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,520
you see like what's hidden 
beneath on the bottom side of 

722
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,720
the portrait and then the 
ceiling effect. 

723
00:37:37,720 --> 00:37:43,400
And I it just, it is the 
original, that whole ride, just 

724
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:47,120
the way that they made it with 
all those, you know, extra 

725
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,520
effects. 
And it's just, it blows my mind.

726
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,040
And I mean, it's just, again, 
it's iconic. 

727
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,240
Like the people who love Haunted
Mansion. 

728
00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:59,720
Yeah. 
Like, that is gospel for them. 

729
00:37:59,720 --> 00:38:01,840
And I, I get it now. 
Yep. 

730
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,360
It is really cool. 
Yeah, really cool. 

731
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,800
You have a smile on your face. 
Is this your number one? 

732
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:14,320
Honda Mansion is my #1 which I I
totally did not expect like when

733
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,440
I thought about it, I was like, 
oh, runaway railway. 

734
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,640
I love that one sure. 
And that was my number one queue

735
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:20,440
line. 
Yep. 

736
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,680
But the more I thought about it,
I was like it's the, it's the 

737
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,480
freaking stretching room. 
Like how can you beat? 

738
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,280
I mean I know what your number 
one is, I'm sure, but like in my

739
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,960
mind, like how can you beat the 
stretching room? 

740
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:37,560
And I think to your point, 
absolutely agree that I'm sure 

741
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,320
they are identical pre shows, 
but in Disneyland, it is 

742
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:44,280
actually an elevator. 
So you actually go down. 

743
00:38:44,720 --> 00:38:47,600
And we actually learned that 
because again, during COVID when

744
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,880
we went to Disney World and they
weren't doing the pre shows, we 

745
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,600
walked right through the 
stretching room. 

746
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,400
So that one, yeah, does not 
move. 

747
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:59,760
But it's just, yeah, the 
portraits, it's just so, I mean,

748
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,560
and even the cast members get 
involved, move to the dead 

749
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,000
center of the room. 
Cast member interaction, you 

750
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,000
guys. 
We mentioned it with Runaway 

751
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,160
Railway, but it was already in 
play at Human Mansion. 

752
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:13,840
And the other thing, again, not 
the biggest fan of Nightmare 

753
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,680
before Christmas, but in 
Disneyland, even that pre show, 

754
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,960
I think they did a fantastic job
with because you're like, how 

755
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,400
are you going to have these 
portraits? 

756
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,360
Like how are you going to 
incorporate Nightmare before 

757
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:26,640
Christmas? 
And even still, they did a great

758
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,400
they. 
Did it? 

759
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,840
Yeah. 
No, it's I don't know it just I 

760
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,200
again, thank you to Justin for 
helping us understand and 

761
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,320
appreciate it even better. 
But like, the more you go on 

762
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:44,120
that ride, the more you realize 
what a masterpiece that it is. 

763
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,480
No, I'm here for it like I'm a 
Haunted Mansion fan. 

764
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:48,800
Yeah. 
Well, it's not. 

765
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,760
At first I was like, I don't get
it 100% get it now. 

766
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,240
I totally get it now. 
Better late than never, but 

767
00:39:55,240 --> 00:39:57,880
we're here for it. 
But yeah, it is, it is cool. 

768
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:01,720
And I mean, again, are we saying
that that is the original pre 

769
00:40:01,720 --> 00:40:04,160
show? 
Is there any? 

770
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,920
Is there anything that predated 
it because it might be like the 

771
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,320
original pre show? 
I'm a Google it. 

772
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:11,880
We're going to have to do some 
research. 

773
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,760
Maybe that would make a fun 
after hours event on Patreon to 

774
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:16,560
talk about. 
Like, I really think this might 

775
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:19,240
be the first pre show. 
Yeah, it's cool. 

776
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,560
OK. 
All right, my number one, I'm 

777
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,160
not it's, it's Rise of the 
Resistance. 

778
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:28,480
And you know, again, I fully 
acknowledge that I am a Star 

779
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,520
Wars fan. 
I'm a Star Wars kid. 

780
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:35,160
And that part was an experience,
like an emotional experience to 

781
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:39,000
be able to go in and have 
Galaxy's Edge come to life and 

782
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,520
then to be able to experience 
that. 

783
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,320
And but like, when you look at 
the magic behind it, I know that

784
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,640
there are creators out there who
go through and talk to you a 

785
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,200
little bit about how they make 
these effects work. 

786
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,880
You know, the Peppers ghost 
effect in Haunted Mansion and, 

787
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,200
and some of these others. 
There are videos out there that 

788
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:58,360
talk to you about what happens 
on Rise of the Resistance when 

789
00:40:58,360 --> 00:40:59,760
you board the shuttle. 
Yeah. 

790
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:04,280
I refuse to watch it because I 
do not want to understand it. 

791
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,680
I just want it to be magical for
me every time. 

792
00:41:08,240 --> 00:41:11,320
But yeah, you know, 1, you get 
to start out with the hologram 

793
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,800
of Ray and you know, again, we 
know that Peter Parker is on the

794
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:18,720
screen at Webslingers. 
But in Rise of the Resistance it

795
00:41:18,720 --> 00:41:21,000
works because it's like the 
holographic message. 

796
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:24,200
You know, you get to see BB8, 
which is super rad. 

797
00:41:24,720 --> 00:41:28,080
You walk out and I get this is 
Q, but you get to see the X wing

798
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,960
info. 
But then when you board that 

799
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,760
shuttle, the transport shuttle, 
like there is so much to see you

800
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,440
guys. 
Like you have to go on it 

801
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,680
multiple times. 
You have to look a different 

802
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,960
direction every time. 
So one everyone looks at you 

803
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:45,960
know, the fish dude up front and
you know, nom nom and he's going

804
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,920
to like tell you everything 
that's happening to the front 

805
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:49,240
and you get to see the screen 
that way. 

806
00:41:49,240 --> 00:41:52,200
But if you look back out the 
back windows, there's more 

807
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,720
things to see. 
If you look at the ceiling when 

808
00:41:54,720 --> 00:41:59,360
you get pulled inside the Star 
destroyer, you actually see the 

809
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:03,640
light like transform and change.
So, like, it is completely 

810
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:04,600
immersive. 
Yeah. 

811
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:08,320
You have no idea where you were 
taken because, again, clearly 

812
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,360
you're pulled somewhere else. 
Physically. 

813
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,240
It's a new room, Yep. 
But you have no idea if you went

814
00:42:13,240 --> 00:42:14,920
up, down, sideways. 
Yeah. 

815
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:15,800
You don't? 
Yeah. 

816
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,880
You were outside, now you're 
inside a ship in outer space. 

817
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,640
Yep. 
And I know this is technically 

818
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:26,920
cute, but when those doors open,
just seeing, Oh yeah, the inside

819
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,840
and seeing all of those 
stormtroopers, nothing like it. 

820
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:35,120
Like just having that experience
for the first time absolutely 

821
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:36,760
blew my mind. 
And I don't know that anything 

822
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:42,480
will ever top it. 
So amazing, amazing again. 

823
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,280
Like I know that there are 
purists who don't like the 

824
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:49,720
screens that have been added to 
modern Disney attractions, but 

825
00:42:49,720 --> 00:42:53,640
you guys like the pre show 
element is so pivotal. 

826
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,160
And I love doing this episode. 
We've wanted to do it for a long

827
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,280
time because like, I have a 
whole new level of appreciation 

828
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,360
for the pre shows. 
It's really awesome. 

829
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:06,000
So as always, let us know what 
you think. 

830
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,360
Tell us what we missed. 
Tell us what was too high, too 

831
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:09,840
low. 
And again, there are several 

832
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:11,720
others that did not make our 
list at all. 

833
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,680
So we want to hear from you if 
you think that there's something

834
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:17,520
else that we missed. 
But yeah, love it, love. 

835
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,880
