Out of the many version's of "Pirates of the Caribbean", the version at the Magic Kingdom has always stood out to me as one of the stranger examples of a cloned Disney attraction. Specifically, the lack of similarities those two attractions have despite being made within a few years of one another. In this video we'll be seeing why that is.

Had the privilege to work at Pirates at WDW shortly after it opened. There were many breakdowns in those early months and we were constantly going into the water to push boats to evacuation points (i think my record was four in one day). Training was grueling as you had to get to any point of the attraction within a few minutes, running over catwalks and behind scenes (and in the dark)!. I can remember the great sense of pride and teamwork as we strove to break ride capacity records to reduce the considerable wait times (over three hours at peak times), and the great after hours parties we had at the local pizzeria Rossi's (now sadly closed). Worst night of my pirate career was getting stuck at unload one night for hours listening to that Barker Bird at the base to the up ramp. FYI the boats are going up a larger ramp on the other side of the wall! Always amazed when someone asked "do you work here?" while I was in costume.

I Worked Pirates 1975-1977. I survived the infamous park blackout (when the entire park lost power) and discovered, to out horror, none of the emergency lights worked (only one in the queue came on). And a chaotic evacuation during one breakdown where we realized none of us had actually been fully evac trained. LOL. It was a lot of fun. But most importantly... it was air conditioned!

I’ve been on the Walt Disney World version countless times and just went on the Disneyland version for the first time and it’s like going on a completely different ride! It makes the Walt Disney World Ride look like the store brand version, similar product but lacking something and it obviously costs less. WDW still has a cool queue and surrounding area but the Disneyland version is definitely superior

@achtungpv 5 жыл бұрын

It's like that with a lot of rides...the DLR version is always superior. Big Thunder Mountain is another good example. the WDW version is missing the main part of the ride...the fuse lighting the dynamite at the top of the tunnel climb. You'd think with all the space they have avaiilable at WDW, they would have improved the rides instead of building them to 90% of the DLR version.

@highfive2935 4 жыл бұрын

@@achtungpv I disagree, most rides between the two that they share are very similar if not the same with the only two exceptions being pirates and somewhat space mountain.

There are a couple reasons why the mermaids were removed. The projections vanished not long after they were added in 2012 because they malfunctioned a lot. The skeleton remained on the beach until 2018 and it was removed because, from what I've heard from various cast members, it fell apart. They extended the beach with an evacuation platform during the 2018 refurbishment to make the cast members' jobs easier during ride evacuations. In the beginning of the ride, they originally had to push the boats to the talking skull's platform but now they only have to push the boats to the beach. Now here's where the mermaid comes in: they were moving it over to make room for the platform and while doing so it fell apart. It may sound odd, but I have some evidence to back this up. An Imagineer told me in 2011 that mermaids were planned for Disneyland's beach as well (she even asked me for input on where to put the mermaids), but they were never installed because they were too fragile. It makes me wonder what they were made of.

Fun fact about the Mermaid skeleton: I'm a former CM and knew some Pirates workers. They originally just wanted to move the skeleton back, but apparently the paint originally used was highly acidic and they didn't prepare for the way that would harm the infrastructure. The mermaid literally disintegrated upon them attempting to move it. So I guess, in a way, it's sort of still there. Just look at the dusty sand on the beach haha

Because it wasn't an original attraction and had to be shoehorned in when visitors complained that it wasn't there, in a park with a high water table and no need to drop below the railroad, so a very truncated beginning. And because one Imagineer in particular demanded not to include the uphill waterfall and associated scenes, so a truncated ending.

@DarthBrtt 5 жыл бұрын

Very well done video! A few observations /comments I have. PotC opened in Anaheim in 1967 actually, nearly 7 years before the MK's opened in Orlando. Other differences not mentioned in the video is Old Bill, the drunken pirate seen with the kittens, was actually originally at the MK's version only. DL did not add him until after he debuted at WDW's version sometime during the mid-to late 1970s. Also, the original Jolly Roger at DW's attraction was very different from DL's version. The voice, the skull and dialogue were completely different. I know you mentioned them bringing the skull back very recently, but I don't think you mentioned that the original MK Jolly Roger was completely different from DL's.

@funtimeswithtom4108 5 жыл бұрын

Can you make a part 2 explaining the other POTC's? Tokyo's is pretty similar to Disneylands, Paris has a really different layout which I find unique and Shanghai's is completely different than all the others and the greatest Dark ride out there.

I assume the Paris version has more drops because of the story. There can be storytelling in the attraction, but I don’t think it would be a fan favourite here if everything is in French. It was fun for me though to see the differences between the Paris version (last visit March) and WDW version (only visit May).

The track layouts aren’t identical, per se. Marc Davis actually took the opportunity to streamline it a bit. In Florida, you approach the dunking scene on a curve instead of head on, making it easier for everyone in the boat to see the scene. There’s more of a division between major scenes like the dunking and the auction, and the chase scene in the burning town, preventing the scenes from bleeding into each other. This was accomplished by adding a few yards of scenery before entering the next area. “Old Bill” was added to Florida as an exclusive character, but was was later copied in California.

NO Bayou? A smaller drop (and I will add..LATER than the ones at DL), and a 180 degree ending.,.,among others (note, remember, pre-the Jack Sparrow era).

I attended the grand opening of DLP, then know as EuroDisneyland. As someone born in 1961 and been going to Disneyland since I was a child, the Paris version completely blew me away. The Paris attraction's sequence of scenes is more linear, with the dead pirates being at the end, showing their ultimate fate. The dueling pirates, while not looking as impressive now, was amazing at the time. Regardless of refurbishments and additions of the PotC movie franchise into the ride, I still think Paris' PotC is the best of all the parks, and Walt would have been proud of the Imagineers who crafted it.

Since it appears a lot of people don't know.. Louisiana was full of pirates, a lot of the southern portion of the state is named after them.. including among many others Jean Lafitte. Among other things he and his family smuggled goods across the gulf of Mexico, from all regions in the Caribbean Sea into New Orleans which was the largest port on the Mississippi River.. thus making them "Pirates of the Caribbean". The entire set up in New Orleans square and the Bayou Lafitte makes perfect sense and is historically accurate for the most part.

Paul did the voices and would take me to Disneyland in his Rolls Royce ! We would go to Club 33, I was like 5! Please don’t forget Paul!!

Disneyland's Pirates is like Classic Coca-Cola, while Magic Kingdom's Pirates is watered down like Diet Coke. Paris' Pirates has a little more flavor, like Cherry Coke, while Shanghai's Pirates is the straight up Cocaine version of Coke.

No mention of how Disney supposedly left out Pirates from the Magic Kingdom because they believed tourists wouldn’t want to ride an attraction based in the Caribbean when the real Caribbean is located nearby?!

Can someone confirm this, because I can't remember but I always found the Disneyland Paris version to be a bit 'wilder' and bigger drop than the Magic Kingdom version. Or maybe I just grew older and now everything looks so small in the ride.

@hiridavidfeign 3 жыл бұрын

I haven't ridden the Paris version but I've watched it from many sources on KZfaq. Since you can see the pirate ship from above before you drop, I'm assuming the drop is a lot bigger than the WDW version. It's an entire story down, whereas I'm guessing WDW's is about half that. Such things can be deceiving though, especially in the dark.

I have been on Pirates "Disneyland" a million times----well almost a million times. The first time I went on Pirates at WDW it was quite a letdown to say the least. But Mr. Todd's Wild Ride is much better at WDW, well it was till Disney took it out for some lame reason. Really Mr. Todd's Wild Ride was removed for winnie the pooh, UGH. Next, they'll make Snow White's Scarry Adventure less scarry----oh, wait they did..... lol

Despite the Disney World version lacking a lot of the elements from the Disneyland version, I still kind of like it. Also, I kind of like to think that it has a slightly different story when compared to the original. At the Magic Kingdom, you're not traveling to the Caribbean in the time of the Pirates. You ARE already there. As the Wicked Wench approaches the fort, you climb aboard your longboat and make a hasty escape through the caves below the fortress and sail through the town just as its being ransacked by the pirates.

This opened in March, but 1967 NOT 1968. ALSO: 1971:only the PARK open, WDW Pirates opened nearly seven yrs later after 1967 on 15 Dec. 1973 (a week after I finally became a teenager! YAY!) Anyhoo: (EDITED as oif May 23,2020). Pirate differences, between DL/WDW, that I can think of, especially, main ones: ****Disneyland:Blue Bayou Resturant/Lagoon, with fireflies and old man strumming banjo (dad always loved that as much as I do! always said he wanted to be on there himself..he'd have to beat Me to it ha ha!) (themed to surrounding New Orleans Square, to show that you're leaving N.O. Harbor);zilch, nada, at Disney World due to no NOS(like they couldn't get a harbor for THEIR surrounding area, Adventureland, or even neighbouring Liberty square? ha ha ha) ****Disneyland and Disney World have a medium drop with Disney Land having one extremely long previous drop, due to that older, 1967 (not1968) original, being an originally planned walkthrough museum ****Disneyland:You enter on one side, exit on the other side. Disney WORLD: Enter, exit, both sides. ****Disneyland has a longer finish, with (1) pirates drinking past the firey area, and (2) an ascending ramp at the end,(unlike WDW) ****Disneyland has a pirates chess room. No such as WDW. ****Photo-Op at Disney World, not at DL though. ****Most overall scenes even beyond the bayou and first, much longer drop, missing in Florida. ****Florida has a shorter flaming area and seemingly different sequence (Freaky Pirates Friday, maybe?)

WDW's is better. Disneyland's is weird and I don't like it for a few reasons: 1. Why is it in New Orleans Square? That makes no sense. 2. The bayou scene, while cool, makes no sense as a story. Being set in a Spanish-style armory makes so much more sense. 3. All of the grotto scenes are just random pirate dioramas. They don't add to the story in any way. Whereas at WDW, you go down the hill and BAM! You're in the story, right in the middle of a pirate battle! 4. I didn't smell anything in the DL version, which was super disappointing as Pirates' smell at WDW is my favorite.

@pandaparkconstructions2975 4 жыл бұрын

First of all you did not spell scene right. Second of all it was made in New Orleans Square since it made the most sense to place it there at the time and also they needed rides to open up with the land. The bayou scene does make sense since you enter the building and ride the boats that are at Laffete's Landing which is where boats dock! Plus there are plenty of docks in the bayou. The caves in Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland immerses you and makes the story feel forbodding to what you are about to experience and it shows you how the pirates ended up and if helps show you that you are going back in time once you passed the mist (old) or the pirate (new). Also I think you are just used to the smell at MK so Disneyland's Pirates of the Caribbean didn't smell that strong.

Panda Park Constructions dude please don’t get on me about one misused word, which is spelled correctly the second time, when your grammar, spelling (foreboding), AND syntax are all fucked. Your arguments are also just either weak or nonsensical. Disneyland is overhyped in general, and I think their PotC is just one example of how poorly designed the park is.
