The cackle is the only thing I'll miss! I will always remember the original ride but I'm on board for the new version. It really does tell the true story.
The last thing we need is Disney deciding to revamp the attraction and deciding the hell scene is too scary or inappropriate for modern child audiences
This gives me hope for Pinocchio and Mr toads, and just for Disneyland as a whole. I'm so thankful for how respectful they always are to the classics. They improve, but don't completely change. Thanks for your work! Fresh Baked!
David, I enjoyed how excited you were over Bambi's practical cameo in the sleeping/kissing scene. Idea for a video. Since Bambi doesn't have his own ride, find all the times he makes appearances in other rides. Maybe more fun than looking for hidden Mickeys.
No one really mentions the biggest and best change of this ride - and that's the use of "Someday My Prince Will Come!" The new ending is fantastic but what really makes it for me is the music!
@Kicapu not what I meant. I meant it seems ludicrous to try to adjust a fairy tale (with spells, dwarfs, and enchanted house-cleaning animals) to reality.
Did anyone else notice the new smells on the ride? In the cottage it smelt like cinnamon and pie, and the scene with all the lights had a smell like jasmine flowers inserted into it.
Thanks for the detailed comparison. When I first watched the new ride-through, I couldn't really tell what was different, except for the improved ending and it overall feeling a little less scary. They really did an excellent job adding details without changing too much of the overall ride.
@@isaiahvilla6691 not really its projections on a wall and the mirror frame is painted on the wall but when the light and projections are on it the frame is lit up to when it goes dark you can still see the frame outlined on the wall already rode the ride on the 4th
The only thing I'm sad about is no more apple and cackle, I thought that was so fun! It does make sense, but it was a fun way to enjoy it without even having to ride the ride.
I will miss the forest and the skeletons, in the dungeon, but I love the change. After all in the film we see the queens lab a lot, while we only see one skeleton in a cell, during the movie.
The way you comment on everything gives me so much more respect to all of what you do. You yourself are an artist. I appreciate that you also have an ability to break and explain things down. Be proud of what you do sir.
Don't worry, I'll get the stuff you missed. Comparisons are what my channel is bult on. still has a lot of building to go. great video though. some thing that I am surprised you missed though is the silhouette of grumpy in the mine using his pick axe.
I appreciated you doing the before and after prior to the ride opening but SO glad you came back and did it side by side like this! Really loved this and your view on it. Might miss the dark forest a little but not all the 'apple attempts'. They were redundant. Much improved ride now. Thank you.
One of my favorite videos from you! I’m a huge snow fan and also I get nervous about refurbs on some of the OG dark rides. This is the best balance of preserving the history of the ride but making it more modern and advanced. Beautiful! I love the comparison, and there are more changes than I originally realized. That ending though! 😍🙌🏽
The cauldron scene: they also took the “webbing” off, which was put there in the 1983 refurbishment of the attraction. It was a metal cage to protect the apple. When I was a custodial cast member back in 1989 and frequently swept the attraction just after park close, you could see the apple effect where it started as an apple, and deflated/shrunk to a skull. Allegedly, it was the single most expensive effect in the park back in 1983 due to the equipment needed to inflate and deflate it quickly. It was always tough to see riding past it so quick, and when I last rode it in 2005, the attraction cast member said it had stopped working a few years prior.
Excellent video, more like this if possible please! Scary Adventure was one of my favourite rides because of the liminal space-type feel, but I am glad they have moved Snow White from the stairs. It would take too many words for me to try and describe why her original position with the candle horrified me so, but it made me feel some type of way whenever I saw it.
No one does this better than you! Thank you so much. Oh, and Thank you Cast Members, Imagineers and Creators (that's you) for all your hard work! Love and miss you all! Covid kinda took the Park option away for a year two, but it does own space in my Heart. #templemastery
Thanks for this; I really liked the side by side comparison. I didn’t go on the ride that much as a kid because it was so dark and actually seemed kind of boring; Snow White was barely in it. Now she is quite a bit, and it’s gorgeous. I like all the changes even external to the ride, they totally make it more upbeat, and I’m glad you pointed them out. I remember seeing the Matterhorn under construction from the Santa Ana Freeway as a kid, so the Disneyland is kind of a sacred space, especially the original rides, but I approve of this update! (And bring back the People Mover!)
This ride always reminds me of my daughters first visit to Disneyland at 2yrs old she cried on this ride lol. Can't wait to go back on it she is now almost 12 yrs old.
This is a phenomenal side by side! Thank you for doing this as I couldn't remember what the ride was like before. It's been too long! I haven't been on the new ride yet but I'm looking forward to it! That end scene with all the twinkle lights looks amazing!
Something I haven't seen addreseed yet regarding the updates is whether or not the evil queen remains up in the facade window. That was one of my favorite touches in Fantasyland and I really hope that in an effort to make everything happy- happy, they didn't remove this super cool element. This was an excellent review/presentation, btw! I cannot wait to return!
Great video, Dave! That's not a sword outside the ride--it's a buck saw. You covered the differences very well! I love everything about the new ride. I can tell that they borrowed some material from the Mine Train ride at Walt Disney World. Yeah, I love it!
Dave, you always do such a great job on these side by side comparison videos. And you have such a positive outlook on things it is why I have been watching you for five years.
Its good to see this kind of video from you again.Parts of this remind me of the Seven Dwarves Mine car ride at Magic Kingdom .I hope you and Liz expeirence that ride someday.Its one of my favorite Magic Kingdom rides
The sword is a saw the dwarves use to saw with, along with the tools in the barrel. (It looked like a sword to me at first too.) It's one of those saws two people use on each side. You can't see the other end. Thank you for this wonderful before and after. Fantastic editing.
Great job, as always! One thing I noticed that you hadn't mentioned was that I think they took a lot of elements from the new Seven Dwarves Mine Train ride in WDW for this refresh, especially Dopey with the gems in his eyes.
Great video, thank you! This is the best upgrade of any ride ever. They really an amazing job with so much respect for the original. I’m also happy this means Snow White isn’t going anywhere! Awesome way to “plus it”
Great side by side 👍🏼 It’s easy to miss with a mask on, but did you notice the flower scent in the last scene? We went on 3x Sunday, so by the 3rd ride, I knew it was real lol and my daughter confirmed she could smell it too.it’s a nice touch, I think 😊 🌸 💐
Your side by side comparison and analysis are fantastic! I hope you can find footage to show us the differences in the pet cemetery at Haunted Mansion too.
Fantastic Fresh Baked - Well done my good sir 😀 💖’d it 🌟. Was waiting to see the comparison- I vote for the new 👍. Seems much more suited for the story and Fantasy Land. The execution was flawless - expected no less 😄
Wow awesome thank you for this, there was always too long of lines for these fantasy land rides and as an adult getting to go once every few years we skipped a lot of those rides. We'll not Oct
I have to point out something I noticed. During the scene where the queen turns into the witch in front of the mirror, there’s an effect around the mirror when she changes, just like the effect around the Coldren with the Apple.
maybe in your opinion this was a proper happy ending but I loved the effect of the witch trying to push the bolder onto the dwarfs and how it shows the creepy shadow of the witch falling to her demise behind her as the lighting flashes in the end and of course I took their word for it that it was a happy ending cause you saw the witch fall to her death as she screams when the lighting flashes. plus if we've seen the ending from the movie itself why wouldn't we take their word for it in the first version?
The "sword" is an old fashion tree saw. The kind you see in cartoons with a person on each side.
Ill miss the scary forest scene but this is a fantastic upgrade
Those trees are still there just covered now with lights and leaves
The cackle is the only thing I'll miss! I will always remember the original ride but I'm on board for the new version. It really does tell the true story.
The story is actually more cohesive now haha, I wonder if they will ever update Mr Toad's Wild Ride
Stop it
I hope they do because Mr toad needs a revamp
@@monroeyork stop it its fine rode it Tuesday its the best
The last thing we need is Disney deciding to revamp the attraction and deciding the hell scene is too scary or inappropriate for modern child audiences
Well I would actually like it if they made it closer to the film which is charming... Christmas.. more 3-D Winkie and weasels and the riverbank.
I didn’t realize the queen was at the top of the mountain animated at the end with the dwarves, they need to make her stand out more wow
This gives me hope for Pinocchio and Mr toads, and just for Disneyland as a whole. I'm so thankful for how respectful they always are to the classics. They improve, but don't completely change. Thanks for your work! Fresh Baked!
I’m really liking that they kept the integrity of the ride and basically added to it. The lighting is also fantastic! Disney does it again🎯🎯
I LOVE the scene with Snow and Charming and all the flowers and lights! It’s SO beautiful. I was in awe, I cried!
David, I enjoyed how excited you were over Bambi's practical cameo in the sleeping/kissing scene. Idea for a video. Since Bambi doesn't have his own ride, find all the times he makes appearances in other rides. Maybe more fun than looking for hidden Mickeys.
@@PeppersGhost I was simply musing that we should call any deer in any attraction Bambi...even though none of them are.
I'm a fan of the changes I've seen so far!! Does the queen still appear occasionally in the window of the exterior of the ride?
You’re pretty much covering everything for us!!!! Doing such an Awesome job!!!❤️🤩👍
No one really mentions the biggest and best change of this ride - and that's the use of "Someday My Prince Will Come!" The new ending is fantastic but what really makes it for me is the music!
I'm going to miss the kiss when it's replaced by the Prince yelling Wake up! I need your consent before I can give you true love's kiss!
Lol
I know I can’t believe ppl are saying this stuff about a *fairy tale*... 😑
@Kicapu not what I meant. I meant it seems ludicrous to try to adjust a fairy tale (with spells, dwarfs, and enchanted house-cleaning animals) to reality.
@Kicapu Thank god it’s not up to any of *us* (no one implied that it was).
Wow! I have been looking forward to this video since the attraction was closed. You did not disappoint, David. Great job! Disney did it right.
I love how although they made the queens dungeon, into her lab, they still mad it eerie.
"this dungeon understood the assignment" had me busting out laughing LOL great video! love the new updates!
Did anyone else notice the new smells on the ride? In the cottage it smelt like cinnamon and pie, and the scene with all the lights had a smell like jasmine flowers inserted into it.
I was going to ask if the smells changed when adding new updated?
Thanks for the detailed comparison. When I first watched the new ride-through, I couldn't really tell what was different, except for the improved ending and it overall feeling a little less scary. They really did an excellent job adding details without changing too much of the overall ride.
I love seeing the Dwarves "mining they're own business".
My favorite new effect is the shattering mirror. It looks so cool and almost makes you think “How did they do that?” 😃
Lol 😆 🤣
@@ThemeparkNThings that's a question you gotta look it up
@@isaiahvilla6691 not really its projections on a wall and the mirror frame is painted on the wall but when the light and projections are on it the frame is lit up to when it goes dark you can still see the frame outlined on the wall already rode the ride on the 4th

I didn’t know their plan was to make the ride less scary, I thought they wanted to complete the story and not leave us with a cliffhanger. Weird.
Thank you so much for making this video. A very thoughtful comparison.

Love all the changes.. makes it a more fun and cheerful experience
Thank you for making this video. I liked seeing the side by side of all the changes.
They've done an amazing job retheming this ride!
I hope they update Pinocchio and make it so he actually becomes a real boy at the end.
He does tho, have you been on the ride? He became a real boy at the end of the ride
They should use different ip IMO. Pinocchio isn’t a classic attraction like the other fantasyland rides.
@@imaginatenation3697 I’ve been on the ride many times. The figure at the end shows that he’s still a wooden puppet if you look at his legs.
@@dapper-Dan No they shouldn't. Pinocchio is indeed a classic attraction.
@@stanfordite eh. Opened 1983 definitely not classic. Most of the other fantasyland attractions were opening day other than Alice.
Don't worry, I'll get the stuff you missed. Comparisons are what my channel is bult on. still has a lot of building to go. great video though. some thing that I am surprised you missed though is the silhouette of grumpy in the mine using his pick axe.

Thank you David. That was amazing. You do so much. Means everything.
Thanks for the full analysis and breakdown of what changed! I am researching this ride for a paper so thanks for the info!!
our pleasure!

Thanks for showing this .. besides the forest we knew something was missing in that ride
Enjoyed the comprehensive comparison. Thanks!

I really like this refurb it’s much better and not scary I can’t wait to go on it when I go back to see it in person
Loved this! 👍🏻 Thanks David.

Excellent work excellent comparison excellent video!!!
This is a great video! Thank you for this!
Did they keep the evil queen looking out the window of the castle outside?
Yes, she's still there.
Its good to see this kind of video from you again.Parts of this remind me of the Seven Dwarves Mine car ride at Magic Kingdom .I hope you and Liz expeirence that ride someday.Its one of my favorite Magic Kingdom rides
Lighting is everything! Great job, David.
I love all the updates to this ride but especially the finale! It’s so beautifully done and happy😁This will make the ride so much better now💖❤️

no such thing as doing too much IMO. just gives you new stuff to find/enjoy in future ride throughs. kinda like the hidden animals in jungle cruise
Great video, thank you!
This is the best upgrade of any ride ever. They really an amazing job with so much respect for the original. I’m also happy this means Snow White isn’t going anywhere!
Awesome way to “plus it”
Fantastic commentary.
Thank you
Loved this video. I really enjoyed the in depth comparison on everything.
The changes make the ride a better more complete story.
Well done! It looks like they also changed the two light fixture below the sign of Enchanted Wish.
Wow, this was great
you are the best disney analyst! fresh baked!
the front of the 7 dwarfs' cottage now has A SHRUBBERY!
I really enjoyed the commentary David, thanks!

I could not smell anything but I've heard others that did.
Any little bit of "Umph" is great! Can't wait for my first ride!
Yay! I love your side by side comparison videos 😀
Thank you, I really enjoy comparison videos!
Wow so much better
Does the evil queen still appear in the window above the ride (seen from outside) from time to time? I hope they didn't remove her.
i like seeing side by side views of the rides before and after, thank you for sharing this :)
Excellent video!
I actually really loved this ride, uploading my video tomorrow
Great video, thank u.
What a brilliant review David! I actually love Snow and the Prince on the hillside at the end too.. hope they change the odd ones in Paris!

Great video 👍
When Disneyland first opened, we (as young school kids) nicknamed this "The Witch Ride".
It was scary.

I’m sad about the golden apple outside. Does anyone know if the queen still peeks out of the curtain outside the ride? I hope so!
I saw a video that she DOES! I’m so happy! Best part of standing in the Peter Pan queue...
Great Video I love when you do these btw this ride looks so good now 😁
