Thank you for sharing! I love the old version of this ride!

[onedollarphilistine]

This makes me cry. I grew up in O-town, and this ride is just another piece of my childhood gone. The space-Aztecs and '70s skydiving and hotub projections are a vision of another world.

Screw those Troi Canardes!!

@destroyahdes Same here! If they had wanted to add in a tiny Three Cabanerros cameo bit without changing the story of the ride, that would've been cool. But the revamped ride isn't NEARLY as good as the original!

[destroyahdes]

I didn't know they had changed this as last time I went was 2005. I went yesterday and was so disapointed. This was cool and educational.

It's to appeal to kids too I guess.

[TamamaCandyLover]

Ya if the three caballeros don't drown it out with thier screaming lol.

Nice to see that after a year the people of youtube have spoken. What a surprise that disneynut06 got the most negative votes! VIVA EL RIO DEL TIEMPO! DOWN WITH CRAPPY REHABS BRING BACK THE DREAM!

Thanks for posting this! The Aztec emperor seen in the last film sequence was Florencio Yescas, leader of the first Aztec dance groups in the US. He also designed and produced the costumes and provided the dancers, many of whom are still performing today. R.I.P. Florencio 10/30/23-7/5/85.
