What if Disney Made a Doctor Who Ride?

- The crossover we never knew we needed. With Disney getting involved with Doctor Who later this year (and inspired by my two week bender to Disney World last year), I have conjured up a concept to blend two of my favourite things, Daleks and Theme Parks.
If Disney were to set their Imagineers on creating a timey-wimey attraction, would you be straight on a plane to Disney World? #DoctorWho #Disney #ThemeParks

Bro is literally a genius. I want him- I mean.. I want this
I NEED THIS I NEED THIS I NEED THIS I'M A MASSIVE WHOVIAN AND DISNEY ADULT I NEED THIS
For real though, this is INSANELY well thought out. Someone make this man an Imagineer!
The DREAM 🥹
The great thing about making a Doctor Who theme park is, there is so much material to pick from.
You could have almost endless rides based on all the different stories.
Different locations throughout space and time too. Heck, you could do a Doctor Who "land" that's got an alien building next to Big Ben which is next to a chunk of the Great Wall of China and just have the story of the park be that it's in some kind of space and time warp and that the Doctor is in the middle of trying to fix it.
The editing is just fantastic. Be cool if The Weeping Angels/Cybermen flashed on the walls as the Doctor saves you. Or if each ride had a random Doctor appear. Easy money for the fans that want to experience each one.
Well before the Disney+ announcement, I had come up with a Doctor Who ride plan, with a sort of randomized feature similar to Star Tours, to feature various incarnations in possible ride-throughs. You could even do an effect like Rise of the Resistance to allow boarding the Tardis, (possibly using several interiors on a carosel like the Millenium Falcon ride vehicles to allow Doctor-specific console rooms) and enter and exit the same door. Randomizing features could also allow changing villains and stories fitting the various incarnations for the Doctor.
Let me add to this. Have you seen what it looks like when the TADRIS appears? It's almost like someone wanted it to be done with a Peppers Ghost trick. And if it's set up so that the TARDIS is actually behind the glass while the empty space is the reflection, then guests could walk around the glass and enter the police box that wasn't there a moment ago. Add in a basic hidden mirror trick to make it look like there's nothing behind, and you have Bigger on the Inside as well, all done without any moving parts that might ever need to be put in B mode.
Screw Marry Poppins, Doctor Who needs to be the UK Pavillions ride at Epcot.
This is one of the many positive ideas that can become a potential reality by the BBC teaming up with Disney, having a trackless dark ride with accurate theming and having the show building be a UNIT archive is a genius move, having a hologram of The Doctor (most likely Ncuti since 15 will be the the new incarnation by the end of this year) greet us and explain the story of the ride legit sounds awesome
honestly, i don't even care if it even is done by disney or someone else (alton towers could work) this ride idea, seems well, absolutely fantastic and i am honestly quite saddened its not a real thing, like imagination is good but i'd genuinely find a way to go on this ride concept, it seems superb
honestly having a tardis console room that's like those training simulators for airplane pilots would be cool, though dialed back so your not flung across the room, sort of a tardis flight simulator where 6 people need to keep the tardis stable, and they could have all kinds of console rooms that are used across various types of tardis, like at least 12, going back to the original tardis console to the 11th doctor's tardis.
I rewatched the 50th anniversary, and I thought a rollercoaster themed around the time war would be so cool. Riders would go into Dalek ships and be “shot at” by Time Lords. And at the end of the ride, you see an animatronic of John Hurt standing over the Moment.
Perfect! This is exactly how i'd imagine a Doctor Who ride would be!
I heard there was a doctor who ride planned at Disney back in 2010 but never saw the light of day .
I could see Disney doing something with the ride should their licensing deal for Doctor Who suddenly expire. Like with DCA's Tower of Terror turning into Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: BREAKOUT! in 2017, it's possible that they may retheme the Doctor Who ride into something like "Francis' FUNTIME Chase" and might even employ the same infrastructure and ride system, but this really depends.
Funnily enough, i was thinking about a scenario where Imagineers were recruited to design a new TARDIS interior before UA-cam recommended me this.
They'll probably make a micky mouse job of it. (sorry, that's one of my favourite bad jokes - when I used to work in TV and we were doing interviews for new staff, if anybody had Disney on their CV, the first question we'd ask in the interview would always be 'so Disney - that was a bit of a mickey mouse job, wasn't it?' Evil...)
IDEA IDEA IDEA! Trackless Ride DALEKS! You can be a Dalek & ZAP things along the ride. I"D LOOVE A DALEK RIDE.
I'm not even a Disney fan and I need this! Genuinely got chills and could feel the atmosphere already
My only recommendation is to rearrange it so that the dalek attack before you enter the ride vehicle so that they are dialek based as the tardis design changes frequently
This just adds more fuel to the Disney ownership of Doctor Who
Love Disney World, Love Doctor Who, Hate Mission Space. This is the best idea I’ve heard in a long time. Hope Disney is paying attention.
I didn't realise how much I needed this until I saw it, it's fantastic! 😜
This is actually great! They should get you to design the ride if they do this 🤞
I love this. Well done. I found your video while looking up the TARDIS in Disney Land. That's right, it's currently in Disney Land. We're getting close to the real thing. I think you're right, Epcot is the way to go. They can even get people to look like the Doctors, and pop a TARDIS in the UK Pavilion for photos ops.
I met a French Doctor Who blogger who worked in a shop in the Castle in Disney Paris.
This is a nightmare scenario for me because I know I would be *dying* to go but I don't have that kind of financial stability lol
If there is ever gonna be a PlanCo 2, they need the Dark Trackless Rides. So this could be made as a showcase. It would be incredible, and knowing you on PlanCo, youd smash it out of the park.
Oh my gosh, I never thought I’d go back to Disney World but THIS alone would convince me to return.
Dude I feel like we're on the same wavelength! If there was ever a Doctor Who ride this is absolutely one of the ways it could be done!I definitely agree it needs to be easily updatable and adaptive like the Hall of Presidents! Plus there already is an "Unofficial Doctor Who day" that already happens (at least at the OG Disney Parks). I could absolutely see it as a possibility! You're definitely thinking like an imagineer utilizing pre established tech and techniques from the parks!
I'd love to see a Disney World holiday blog of your trip!
"Yes" to the UNIT Pavilion, "yes" to the Daleks as big bads, and "OH YES" to a Doctor Who dark ride in Disney World's Epcot! And you might even get some tradable badges in circular Gallifreyan that have hidden Mickeys. ^_^ And they've got to make Doctor Who themed Disney Spirit Jerseys. I would definitely visit Disney World if they could pull this off.
Mission Space is an excellent ride. On the full power side anyway.
Since the demise of the Mary Poppins ride at the UK Pavilion I can't think of a better place to put Doctor Who at Epcot then there
What a brilliant idea. I've never been to a theme park before but if that's a thing I would go there for sure
Love the idea of the actor playing the Doctor changing with the show, but what if they get recordings for each Doctor and play a different one for every round of guests? I imagine it'd make each ride a new experience.
Utterly genius.
This is incredibly cool with some great ideas, but I would love some more Doctor Who monsters
When I get into animation, this is exactly what I'm going to make
My personal idea would be a spinning mouse-esque suspended coaster, with TARDIS styled cars. Make it a semi-VR experience, similar to TRON Lightcycle Run, but WAY more intense, since you'd be riding through the Time Vortex.
What do you guys think?
Superb video Rich. You put so much thought into this and the explanation was almost like we were actually riding it
Amazing video! Loved the designs and the visuals! I had my first trip to Disney World a couple of weeks ago and spent most of the queue for Rise of the Resistance talking about how great a Doctor Who ride would be. We had weirdly similar ideas to yours! Trackless dark ride, start by going into the TARDIS, end up confronted by a huge animatronic Emperor Dalek. It'd be so cool to go through different time periods/planets and see a bunch of different monsters as the Doctor's trying to get you home. Oh, it would be cool. Maybe one day!
Amazing video rich we can all clearly see how much effort you’ve put in to this well done.
cool thing about this is they could record different doctors and have them on random on different days so one day you have david tennant and the next you have collin baker
As an EPCOT nerd and WHOvian, I would LOVE this. I’d NEVER leave Orlando. Michael Eisner did consider purchasing or licensing WHO in the 80s, as Disney was trying to find content for the sci-fi crowd. That is until Tony Baxter suggested approaching Lucas regarding licensing Star Wars (Star Tours). I’ve heard lore that it got as far as concerting of a Doctor Who ride, but proof has never materialized.
And that's how we got Star Wars under the Disney brand.
At least Doctor Who has streaming rights on Disney+
i did speculate that maybe Alton towers project horizon could possibly have a doctor who theme since it would suit the alleged space theme. and a doctor who ride in my opinion should be in the UK not America
Honestly this sound genuinely really fun and interesting.
This sounds cool, my guess was essentially star tours but yeah this is coooool
Could maybe have different routes too featuring the cybermen or the sillurians
Or the Sontarans maybe.
We need a Doctor Who ride! Especially something similar to your idea! Matter of Fact, we need a Doctor Who World! Come on BBC! Please make a Doctor Who Theme Park! With New Rollercoaster added ever so often!
There were plans for a UK theme park with many BBC properties but IDK if it ever went anywhere edit: the park is still in the works but the BBC back out as the site being used is home to an endangered spider species.
@@cisalzlman Aw, no! I hope it went somewhere but in secret. When was this?
@@Adamairball en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Resort
Thanks! At least there's still plans for it to be opened! Come on 2025, at least get this right! But considering it seems like they haven't started construction yet, it doesn't seem like it'll be happening in 2025.
Intriguing. I can see what you're going for. A little disappointed that the ride can't get "lost in time" and stumble across other antagonists like the Cybermen and the Sontarans. But I get your point about timelessness and that it would take a lot of work and money to add more locations and characters as well as stretch out the length of the ride.
Funny (though improbably idea): Every Doctor is randomized. Or perhaps you get the 1st doctor (played by David Bradley) the 14th,and Ncti to play some videos.
rich you are a genius this is amazing and i a big whovian would love to see this be real someday i hope
send this to disney!
They should make new park and expand on multiple different time eras like jane Austin, Cleopatra and mythology from united kingdom and more in one park like show
australia is planning their own disneyland, there's a potential rival location considering the long loyality of OZ ABC/BBC
WE ABOUSLETY NEED THIS COME ON EVERYONE BOMB RAID DISNEY EMAILS WITH THIS VIDEO WE NEED THIS IN FLORDIA AND PARIS!!!!!!
a truly excellent video! So much attention to detail!
I think this would be really good as although there are massive whovians in the states the general American public are unaware of what doctor who is so if Disney make a ride they need to educate their audience about doctor who like in a waiting area.
I wasn't sure what I'd see in this video, but if I did not know otherwise, I'd swear you were actually employed by "The Mouse" as an "Imagineer" This is insanely well thought out! Actually, I had no inkling of these "free roaming" carts. (Then again, I haven't been to a Disney theme park since 1977...tragically.) But it is obvious you have mulled over the concept for quite some time. I applaud your brainstorming!
Oh I was thinking for the Dalek gun you could use an extremely bright torch and have the room slightly foggy to focus the light, would also be more atmospheric. Not sure I understand the fan system. When you come face to face, is there a massive fan in between you or like projectile fans? 😂
What's interesting is that Disney planned to make a Doctor Who ride in Epcot, however the company was more invested in Star Wars
This is pretty well thought-out! Great job!
Who is that handsome gent in all the establishing shots… 😏
This would be incredible!
This is BRILLIANT!!! 💙💙 Disney should hire you, RIGHT NOW!!! Thanks for this amazing dream!!! 😍
i'd ride this
Thanks for making this! I would absolutely go on this ride--probably more than just once!
Love this video!!! Nice to see a fellow theme park enthusiast whovian!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
6:14 Obviously in 2️⃣ of the display cases there’s a Dalek blaster and a Cyberman head but what’s in the other display cases?
It all sounds great but how would you do in show exits when the ride malfunctions because those are definitely a thing at Disney Parks (even on the trackless rides). TPM Vids has a lengthy series of videos about Disney ride breakdowns
Back in the 90s Disney tried to buy doctor who to make there own revival to capitalize on the popularity of sci-fi at the time had they been successful it would have lead to at least one doctor who themed ride in one or multiple of there parks however talks fell through but this eventually led to Disney buying StarWars and makeing galaxies edge.
This is actually such a good idea!
Incredible!
For me, I am actually from California. Good idea, but my mom only prefers to go to Disneyland more than Walt Disney World. If that would have happen, I am not entering Doctor Who ride at WDW unfortunately.
Wild theory - Alton towers is getting a enclosed "attraction" for 2025 - they already have a BBC IP onsite....
Fantastic! I like the level of thought put into this. Clearly you're a big fan of Dr. Who. I am also, but I'm skeptical of this it seems a little too complicated for Disney to put the effort into a IP that isn't there's officially. I think Disney should put Dr. Who into EPCOT but instead splice Dr. Who into a face-lift update of Sapceship Earth. Mild appearance on the ride that fans and non-fans can relate to, then a post show in the first floor that blasts new emersive interactive experiences based on Dr. Who.
Addition : having the TARDIS just standing near the end of a brick wall sounds a bit boring. My idea would be to use the pepper ghost affect to make it materialize in front of a hallway "dedicated" to the doctor (in reality a miniature forced perspective diorama with tiny UNIT solider animatronics to make it feel more alive) kind of like this m.ua-cam.com/video/WtH1kUB-hAU/v-deo.html like projection mapping and light wind simulations to convey the effect. And also have a "companion" pop out of the TARDIS and ween people in. They can improv with guests and interact with the Doctor's "hologram",kind of like the fast and furious ride's preshow m.ua-cam.com/video/MKaeQIxg3_Q/v-deo.html&pp=ygUlRmFzdCBhbmQgZnVydW91cyBzdW9lcmNoYXJnZWQgcHJlc2hvdw ua-cam.com/video/raN8KMiQySQ/v-deo.htmlsi=KLqEH-ecIUsBAlln
Also an idea would he for the beginning to be in the Orlando swamp,harkening back to the earliest first doctor adventures. ua-cam.com/video/LRpT2Jp8PfI/v-deo.htmlsi=_siJw69P_COSpB3_ also a little tv on the trackless ride.
There was a London ride it was called time fracture but it was closed down not long after it was opened in my words an epic failure.
it wasn't a ride it was another dr who experience
I mean if it were going to happen it probably go to either Alton towers or Thorpe park seen as though their parent company has bit of a relationship with the BBC because of CBeebies land
great plan dude 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Is really good idea
Wouldn't it be better to put the doctor who ride in the british pavilion
I enjoyed The Dr Who Time Fractured
Unfortunately Disney does not the rights to Doctor Who (that still belongs to the BBC).
Seeing the Tardis in the vicinity of a Disney of park as a promotion does give some hope that the two of them coming up with a joint venture (such as "Yet Unnamed Doctor Who Ride Experence sponsored by the BBC).
Which doctor would it be I hope the 10th or 14th
This is a great idea. Shame we're hurtling towards show cancellation instead.
Give it a bit
They'll do it before long
What àbóút each doctor to make it more about the anniversary and I am very interested in the čońčept
I like it but I think it’s too niche personally. I was thinking more like the Simpsons ride at universal. We walk into the tardis as the doctors new campainon , as we travel through space and time , being in one of his adventures.
The problem then is that you'd want a ride vehicle that resembles the TARDIS control room. But the simulators aren't built like that. There'd need to be seats and safety restraints and stuff. Unless maybe it's a different room in the TARDIS for some reason.
Why would anyone buy a pair of Noel Clarke's ears? ;)
Hi, I am Max Lewis I have something in mind what about a theme park and a water park to be connected into a Doctor Who theme water park PS have you watch Doctor Who?
First doctor
Who would be the Doctor
It would change depending on who the current Doctor is.
Put it in U.K pavilion!
YOUR HIRED!!
Disneyland clom
Can you build it in Minecraft first
Half the fanbase are queer, they can't put it in Florida smh
Well, if it's successful in Florida they could build it in the other parks afterward. That's what they do with a lot of these things.
Well, now I'm both amazed and disappointed. Amazed at how awesome of an idea is. 🤩 And disappointed that it doesn't actually exist. 🥲😂
