To be fair, California is basically its own country with all it has to offer. Its a beautiful, giant state. Its much better than if Parques Reunidos opened "Lake Compounce's Connecticut Adventure." Overall though, it was a dumb decision to open a park themed to its home state when most guests are already residents.
@@ThemeParkCrazy Its own country, yeah, that would help lessen the blow of it taking the tourism from virtually the entire rest of America. (Sorry, I'm from Wisconsin, kinda bitter about California. Wanna know why? Look up the Happy Cow commercials.)
I get the noise complaints as the park expands ot may get noisier, but most people living around there weren't living there before Disneyland was built, so you bought a house near a theme park. What do you expect?
I lived next to Universal in Orlando. I could easily walk to City Walk. So, I can relate. These noise complaint are valid because they related to new structures that are significantly taller than anything that was around in the past. No (new) nearby resident should be complaining about fireworks, as those have been around for decades. But, because the new theme park required significant zoning changes, the complaints are valid.
@@alexdaley7616 I live across from Universal Orlando near the McD and other than some distance music during HHN and some fireworks its really not that bad plus you clearly saw UO was in the backyard so you can't whine that you didnt't know it would be loud given its one of the most visited Theme Parks in the WORLD
Only in California do people move next door to a theme park then demand that patrons not scream on a scary ride. Violators will be met with swift retribution from the Karen squad.
The Orange stinger looked beautiful on the outside, but it was honestly a failure in design. The peel blocked the views from the inside. Also, the orange smell attracted wasps that buzzed around inside. It was cool to look at though, and I'm glad you have fond memories of it :).
Maliboomer will always have my heart. It was my first drop tower and it really started my drop tower obsession. I was so mad when they tore it down for no good reason (in my opinion). And they should've at least left the balloon ride as Flik's Flyers. I finally rode supreme scream in 2019 and I have to admit, it was amazing.
I think I went to disneyland/C.A. at the perfect time. Before pixar pier and the tower of terror retheme, but after the 1900s asthetic retheme. I feel like that was the sweet spot as far as quality and good theming. Both pixar pier and the guardians reskin just feel kinda emotionless like "lol lets just slap an ip on a previously existing ride". I liked the 1900s era the most for the pier and I miss it!
Paradise Pier was the most beautiful part of the park and my favorite. I never rode this ride because I wasn't tall enough. But nearly a decade later I rode Supreme Scream.
Paradise Pier SLAPPED, even if it was *UGLY, TACKY, CHEAP, STUPID, RUN OF THE MILL, PROBLEMATIC, AND SHIT!* (probably was the 2nd best part of the OG park when it was Disney's California Adventure!)
Dude, you came up with a better concept than a billion dollar entertainment giant could - it could even be thematically integrated into the queue with some character explanations about the scream shields!
They have been “inspired” by Knott’s for years Calico Mine Ride - Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Calico River Rapids - Grizzly River Run Timber Mountain Log Ride - Splash Mountain (also inspired by Tales of the Okefenoke at Six Flags Over Georgia)
@@benjaminveksler3793 doesn’t mean the opposite hasn’t happened, Knott’s built Coast Rider after Disney already built Mulholland Madness/Goofy’s Sky School, which wasn’t even the only Wild Mouse to have existed in the area, as Adventure City used to have one as well.
I talked to a cast member today. He got to experience the opening year of California Adventure. I asked him why MaliBOOMer closed, and he said that it closed due to lack of parts. When S&S worldwide went out of business, they didn’t have any more spare parts to operate the ride.
This is a cursed ride slot in California Adventure. Once it was removed it was replaced by Inside Out: Emotional Whirlwind which was literally just a reskinned version of the balloon ride from A Bug’s Land which was shut down for Avengers Campus. That ride has also subsequently closed, and there’s now nothing operating there. I do wish they had Maliboomer still. Someone in the comments mentioned that it could be Monster’s Inc Themed since it captures screams. Theme the cars as doors. You could even turn that face shield into some sort of AR experience. Imagine having characters interact with you in that space.
I have no problem with the maliboomer being gone. The last time I rode on it the restraint wouldnt come all the way down and I was left with a pretty good gap. I was screaming my head off the whole ride because I thought I was going to fall out.
For a brief time when both drop rides were in the California Adventure park, I and my family would nickname them, "The Two Towers", as a sarcastic nod to the second Lord of the Rings film/book.
With the addition of cars land and the transformation of paradise pier into Pixar pier, the park feels a lot more disney now. It's still in the top three of my favorite Disney parks
So glad I got to ride this! 🥰 And the Orange swings...they really are overpriced fair rides when ya think about it though. Glad that C.A. has improved so much since!
7:17 Those aren't to keep the dog from scratching their ears (I mean, maybe that's one of the uses for it) but it's primary use is to keep the dog/cat from licking or gnawing at it's wound/incision etc. To prevent infection and reopening of stiches or whatever.
@@ThemeParkCrazy Yeah, I can see it being used for that. Makes sense. I've just always seen it used to keep them from licking themselves. They always get them after surgery. Some animals hate those things, others don't even notice them. Hah
The other thing about the Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind is that it looks to be nothing more than a rethemed version of the same ride in what used to be Bug's Land.
I loved the Maliboomer. I was very upset when they removed it and then didnt even put anything else up in its place! We used to ride it around 5 times a day. The shields never bothered me as they were clear and didn't hinder any view (which was fantastic from the maliboomer, much better view than tower of terror). not cumbersome at all.
Disney Sea in Long Beach was the first Idea for an expansion before California Adventure but the coastal commission said no to the idea ! Tokyo said bring it here and we love you more !
Maybe, to the guests who thought so, the Scream Shields resembling the shame dog cones were supposed to represent shame to park guests for even CONSIDERING going to California Adventure in the first place??? 😆
I liked the concept of California Adventure, and thought they did a good job. The idea of the Boardwalk fit perfectly as a carnival-like attraction more so than a theme park, because that is essentially what the Boardwalk is, a giant carnival! It is similar to Coney Island that way. That is the charm and attraction, being more like an archaic fair.
Great video & it’s was nice to see my footage being used. If there’s anything else you need from my channel please let me know. I’ll be adding more retro theme park videos next month!
i'm so glad that they mentioned people would refer to the shields as 'puke shields' cuz i definitely thought they were 'vomit shields' when i was a kid... but again, i was a kid.
I remember going to California Adventure on opening day. It was the only time I ever got to ride California Screamin’ multiple times without getting back in line. My father and I sat in the front seat and rode it at least four times.
Excuse me, but those Anaheim residents have absolutely no right to complain about theme park noise, they all moved in LONG after Disneyland was built, if they didn’t want the noise, they shouldn’t have moved in right next to it.
In many ways, they are like the residents near Alton Towers, but at least those residents had been there long before Alton Towers became a big theme park.
many such cases of an establishment that makes a lot of noise opening where there aren't a lot of people to complain about it, the suburban cancer cell expands and surrounds the loud establishment, mfs demand that the loud establishment stop being loud. amusement parks have had better luck with this than racetracks have recently
I remember getting to go to California adventure right before the Maliboomer closed about. And I was brave enough to ride the Maliboomer but not Tower of Terror for some reason.
You don't seem to have S&S's tower timeline correct. The Space Shot started the company in 1994. Certain models such as the Big Shot in Las Vegas is the FIRST GENERATION. The SECOND GENERATION was made in 1997 and allowed S&S to come up with the Turbo Drop. In 1999, they introduced two more: The Double Shot, a smaller-sized Space Shot with two shots instead of just one, then the Combo Tower, which combined both the Space Shot and Turbo Drop experience in one attraction. By 2014, they had come out with a 20-seat combo tower, with the option of having the seat panel rotate at the top in the middle of the sequence. In 2020, they came out with the Spin Shot, a revolutionary new attraction that combines the Free Spin coaster on the towers and can be retrofit on any existing tower.
I will never forget the maliboomer. While most don't even know it existed. Mainly because of this hilarious experience. My dad has a larger belly and well the restraint wasn't going all the way. The poor young CM was trying so hard and I mean he would jump and push down because he felt so bad and wanted my dad to go. We were all laughing so hard. My dad like I promise it's okay. It was a good time. Fun ride. But that was back when Cal Adv was underwhelming
California Adventure has become a product pusher of a park. Whatever sells gets a spot. It’s a revolving door of themed lands and merchandising. I don’t view this as much better than the original park. It still has no identity after 2 decades.
I can't say I agree completely with the parks reasoning for removing the Maliboomer. The Orange Stinger, Sun Wheel and Mulholland Madness were off the shelf rides but they were able to make them to fit in the newley rethemed Paradise Pier in the early 2010s so they could've easily made this ride fit into that new area theming as well. Never the less, I don't see why they decided to scrap it rather than sell it to another park that could've desperatly used one of these rides like Michigan's Adventure.
I only to ride Maliboomer once back in 2002. Despite the scream shields, the ride was still fun and way more thrilling than Emotional Whirlwind (Flik's Flyers was the better name and theme, and Balloon Race at Knotts Berry Farm is the better version of that ride model in general).
Well i mean if you think about it since they took out Bugs Land which was a land designed for the smaller folk, it would make sense that they needed to add kiddie rides instead of more thrilling rides
When I went to DCA for the first time before the renovations, I was just confused to why a theme park themed the state I already live in. I found the park boring right after I walked the entire park to were we left early and not stayed the night. After the renovations plus the carsland. The entrance looks looks better and there's was a little more things to do. But now when they changed tower of terror and paradise pier and now the new marvel land and still being called California Adventures, makes no sense anymore 😑 and the Maliboomer was just odd to me with those shields on when there was Supreme Screem just a few miles away without shields.
i consider jumpin' jellyfish at disney california adventure and toy soldier parachute drop at the toy story lands in walt disney studios and hong kong disneyland drop rides even though they are much tamer
8:30 The new Twilight Zone Tower of Terror… The new Twilight Zone Tower of Terror… The new Twilight Zone Tower of Terror… The new Twilight Zone Tower of Terror
I think it would've been cool if Disney re-themed the Maliboomer to Up during the Pixar re-theme. Think about it! The cars could have been the houses with balloons attached to the top. Just a random idea I just had.
I miss the Maliboomer. People tended to forget it was there and I never remembered a line up. I thought the plexi glass was a puke shield and people finding them cumbersome puzzle me. It was clear plexi! As for the people complaining about the noise and traffic...I wonder how many people who live there have lived there since 1955. THEY are the only ones who can complain. Everyone else, imagine moving to Anaheim THEN complaining about the noise and the traffic.
Honestly in my opinion, a theme park based on carnivals and a romantic tribute to California itself is a fun idea, if a non Disney park picked up on the concept.
Would you ever consider trip to Poland? There is theme park called Energylandia in village of Zator(31m from Kraków) . Its fast growing place which adding new themed area every year. They do have now 17 coasters and most of them are proper large rides. Check the wiki page of it. Take care and keep up with good work :)
About time someone covered this drop tower! Honestly I wish it still stayed up as it would be cool to see! It’s a good contrast to Tower Of Terror/Guardians Breakout. Plus imagine the Pixar theme they could apply it today. Maybe the rocket at the end of Toy Story 1 and launch Woody & Buzz to the sky?
I can confirm when California Adventure first opened it completely sucked. It was boring, but to be fair, the park had just opened whereas Disneyland had decades to perfect the park. I haven't been to California Adventure in over a decade, but it still had vastly improved since my first experience with it.
@@ThemeParkCrazy I believe so, and could only imagine since the 10 years passed that C/A has made even more great leaps to improve the park. For all the absurd Wokeness Disney has become, they still are quite amazing when it comes to creativity within their parks. Too bad non of that translates over to the movies they've destroyed.

I think it would've been cool if Disney re-themed the Maliboomer to Up during the Pixar re-theme. Think about it! The cars could have been the houses with balloons attached to the top. Just a random idea I just had.
I miss the Maliboomer. People tended to forget it was there and I never remembered a line up. I thought the plexi glass was a puke shield and people finding them cumbersome puzzle me. It was clear plexi! As for the people complaining about the noise and traffic...I wonder how many people who live there have lived there since 1955. THEY are the only ones who can complain. Everyone else, imagine moving to Anaheim THEN complaining about the noise and the traffic.
Just like those who complain about Dorney Park. Dorney Park's been there since at least the 1920s.
I think if the maliboomer was themed to buzz lightyear the scream sheilds could make more sense
Honestly in my opinion, a theme park based on carnivals and a romantic tribute to California itself is a fun idea, if a non Disney park picked up on the concept.
Would you ever consider trip to Poland? There is theme park called Energylandia in village of Zator(31m from Kraków) . Its fast growing place which adding new themed area every year. They do have now 17 coasters and most of them are proper large rides. Check the wiki page of it.
Take care and keep up with good work :)
I never got to ride Maliboomer as a kid, but i guess Supreme Scream will have to do.
TIL: Why the Maliboomer ride had those weird-looking shields.
I remember these. I didnt like the Maliboomer because of those shields. Was pretty lame not having the wind rush around your face.
About time someone covered this drop tower! Honestly I wish it still stayed up as it would be cool to see! It’s a good contrast to Tower Of Terror/Guardians Breakout.
Plus imagine the Pixar theme they could apply it today. Maybe the rocket at the end of Toy Story 1 and launch Woody & Buzz to the sky?
I loved this ride. It almost always had no line, but also had a single rider lane 😇. I have so so many good memories on this ride.
@Arius Raygn Disney Fans after 2012: I won, but at what cost?
Some have Scream shields and then there is Phantasialand with Mystery Castle
Great video, but at 4:03 its actually the giant dipper. Otherwise great video!
Soarin' Over California or whatever it's called now wasn't there when the park first opened either
It actually was. It opened on February 8th, 2001. The one in Epcot opened in 2005.
I'll say it...
Okay Maliboomer.

Hotel mario..! Now THAT is a powerful reference.
Can you do a video on the initial failure of Disney’s California Adventure?
I can confirm when California Adventure first opened it completely sucked. It was boring, but to be fair, the park had just opened whereas Disneyland had decades to perfect the park. I haven't been to California Adventure in over a decade, but it still had vastly improved since my first experience with it.
I agree that parks often improve with age.
@@ThemeParkCrazy I believe so, and could only imagine since the 10 years passed that C/A has made even more great leaps to improve the park. For all the absurd Wokeness Disney has become, they still are quite amazing when it comes to creativity within their parks. Too bad non of that translates over to the movies they've destroyed.
I used to think the shields were space helmets
PLEASE rank all of the coasters at Dollywood.It is my favorite theme park.
As "Paul Fessler" hearing "Paul Pressler" made me double take lol
This might have been the first Theme Park Crazy episode without a food reference. Orange Stinger and the use of the word Cheesy aside.
I guess the Hotel Mario reference took its place.

Can you make a video of the best rollercoasters in California?
In 2021, they remind me of the plexi "covid shields" you'd find at the store registers...
