[Fun] How many refences from old WDW attractions can you find in other Disney Parks?

[Timekeeper]

Why I ask this, is because I saw the Sea Serpent From EPCOT's World Of Motion in DCA. I know there must be others, so post what you found, of stuff from old WDW Attractions in Other Disney Parks. Have fun!

Are you specifically referring to actual attraction props? Like Buff, Melvin, and Max in Winnie the Pooh in Disneyland and the Mr. Toad statue in the pet cementery of the Haunted Mansion at WDW, or references to previous attractions as well, like the handing of the deed to Owl in Winnie the Pooh, and the Nautilus in the knot of wood at Pooh's Playful Spot?

The other one I can think of is the chickens in Buzz Lightyear are left over from Dreamflight/Take Flight, the chickens in the Barnstormer are from the World of Motion, and there are many leftover props from the World of Motion in the Prop Warehouse before you board the tram at the Backlot Tour.

Yes on the first paragraph and yes again on the second papagraph. Yes, actual WDW attraction props in other Disney Parks.
I didn't know of the chickens on Buzz Lightyear(werid that there are chickens in the first place:blink:.)

So, yes, basically references of old WDW Attractions in other Disney Parks.(Sorry about the typo in the title:sweat:!)

More of the World of Motion animatronics were put into Pirates of the Caribbean in Disneyland. There used to be one pirate in particular who was trying to keep a horse and goat from eating his food. The horse had that exagerrated "cartoony" look that stood out from the other animals in the ride. You can see him in this video, around 3:50:

I think they moved the Pirate when they installed Jack Sparrow. He is now one of the guys peaking his head out from on top of the fort in the battle scene.

Come to think of it, weren't the guys trying to pull the treasure up at the end (6:17 in the video) also from World of Motion?

There are numerous references to Horizons in Disneyland's Innoventions. We have the robot butler and robot chef on the spinning mural outside, and the birthday scene is present as a shadow effect in the Tree of Technology inside. The robot butler also appears in the preshow video.


Also, not in DL, but Horizons has the TL '71 waterfalls and the name of a (at the time) future Disney movie. Do you know what it is?

From here

EDIT: I found another one in the above pic! And it's the googie sun thing on the Playhouse Disney sign! (Top left of Neon City pic and top center of DCA pic.)

Yes. They were cavemen from World of Motion. For those not in the know, when Disneyland's Pirates got it's PC refurb (the one where a bunch of feminists were perverted enough read the chase scene as "pirates after the girls to commit act on them"). In changing the chase scene to show the pirates are after the girls for their food, they brought some World of Motion into the scene. I believe it was a man protecting his food from a horse and a goat. Disneyland's Pirates has you going up the lift hill and two cavemen redressed as Pirates are trying to push a box of treasure up the hill. As you go up, you see the two pirates as skeletons.

Ehh? That never happened when I rode in 99! Further up the hill is the LED eyeballs, and then the skeletons up top in the lobby circle to the docks have always been there.

Those two guys at the end were added in the Pressler-era refurb, and were removed with the movie tie-in refurb. Their sound effects were very loud and obviously added-on, and on top of that it sounded uncannily like a loop of constipated people having a go of it in a restroom. "EEUUNGH! ERRRRGH!" For that reason alone the ride was improved by their removal.

After that refurb, DLers had some theory that the point of the add-ons was to represent all of the seven deadly sins, though I don't think it went that deep. I think it was more like, "we have a lot of World of Motion AAs."


On the topic of this thread, I believe Disneyland's Star Tours queue was doing "Paging Mr. Tom Morrow" well before the TTA ever did.

I called them the "Constipated Pirates" because of that.

That announcement can be heard at the Hollywood Pictures Backlot in DCA.

Also, on youtube, I found a video of the finalie videos of Horizons in TDL's Star Tours!(I sadly wish to know how to vids)

Right. That's the refurb I'm talking about. I remember skeletons going up (as if they're cursed), but it's possible they were added after '97.

And off topic, at least WDW can't page Mr. Egroeg Sacul Only at Disneyland!

Their squatting like positions sure were awkward, too.

I've heard it at WDW.

Why I ask this, is because I saw the Sea Serpent From EPCOT's World Of Motion in DCA.

And where did you see it at DCA?

Re: How many refences from old WDW attractions can you find in other Disney Parks?

The bike in Mickey's Living Room in ToonTown is from World of Motion.

It's in the Hollywood Pictures Backlot, by the Drawn to Animation Stage.

Actually, those pirates were the men from WoM trying to get their stubborn donkey off his butt. (The YouTube video is rather dark, but you can see the one guy pulling the animal on the right, while the other guy is trying to lift his butt off the ground, on the left. Just like the two pirates on the lift hill trying to move/lift the treasure chest.)
