The Making of Disneyland's Indiana Jones Adventure (3/3)

[solmess1]

its such a shame they can never get all of the effects working all at once! I go every couple months and there is always guaranteed at least 1 effect broken. they opening effect with moving room with 3 doors hasnt worked all summer I believe

Very cool video!  My favorite ride ever!

[ILoveRooRs]

So WDW gets a very outdated Indiana Jones "stunt show" and a weak Dinosour ride... and DL has an amazing IJ Ride =(

The cars look to be the same though?? Is the track layout similar??

[ofelixdacat]

What did you expect? Disney World's Management is cheap, and miss-manages their resort. That's why DL's Adventureland has the exciting Indiana Jones Adventure, while Disney World gets the Flying Carpets instead.

Sorry to burst your bubble. Imagineering oversees all of Disney Parks attractions. They work together. Not separate entities. If "Indy" is taken to Disney World, it'll probably take the place of the stunt spectacular.

[ofelixdacat]

Like I said, Imagineering is one entity, Disney parks are two different resorts. It's up to the resorts to fork over the budget for new attractions. Disneyland tends to spend more money on it's new attractions, while WDW likes to skimp. this summer, DL received enhancements to it's electrical parade, fantasmic, Pixie Hollow, & fireworks, while WDW received a cheap lackluster Stitch show which is closing pretty soon.

they're supposed to be switching the show for the ride

[ofelixdacat]

Which is never going to happen. Right now, Disney & WDW management would like to see more pixar related attractions added to the studios park. A New Indy ride for the studios park is very likely never to happen, just like Western River Expedition.

The track layout is exactly the same. WDW just programmed Dinosaur! differently.

man, i wish i could just go on it right away like they did. they should have hired harrison to play indy. he would have done it.

[troyh2012]

uh, they did try to hire harrison ford to play as indy.. he didn't want to do it... they should have him do it though and i hope they change it because the voice barely sounds like indiana jones at all... great ride though.

[9ALLEN9]

How is it that they got to model the animatronic after him but they couldn't get him into the studio for 10 minutes to record his lines?

[troyh2012]

probably because he did not want his voice to be recorded and put on the ride?...

[9ALLEN9]

That's still kinda weird. "Yes, lets have my body in the ride, but not voice". Whatever.

[troyh2012]

harrison ford did not approve to have him as indiana jones in the ride. so they didn't make it based on harrison ford. that's why they used a different voice.

[9ALLEN9]

Really? I thought they modeled the animatronic after him....

[troyh2012]

they modeled it after indiana jones... not harrison ford himself. harrison ford did not want to be on the ride... atleast thats what i heard from various scources.

[akamai04]

wow I'm really glad I found this video. I remember watching this before the ride opened. I also remember being there on opening day, and having the line go all the way through Fronteirland. Good find!

Oh, such were the days before FastPass! :)
