My Snow White questions from last year, followed by Stefano's recently posted answers: There are a lot of interesting details in this new reply, including some more evidence toward the audio recording having a section missing from it.

Color version of one of the black and white Toad photos from The "E" Ticket, retrieved from Parkendium: This isn't super interesting as it doesn't show the true ultraviolet colorization of the scene, but we can at least see that the falling halberd was a bright red color, presumably to make it...

The notion that there was some elusive Ratty/Moley dialogue that I'll presumably never be able to hear is going to haunt me forever.

Interesting new comment on my YouTube upload of the 1970s Mr. Toad audio. This is actually the same person who posted that in-depth comment on the Snow White video some time ago. I'll reply tomorrow, but right now I'm extravagantly tired.

This isn't anything major, but I just found some dark ride interior shots on Jason Schultz's Parkendium archive that I had never seen before: https://mediagraph.io/parkendium/explore For some reason, I'm unable to locate the GorillasDon'tBlog post that this shot below was taken from, even...

I just noticed that the sound used for the creaking timbers in WDW's 1971 Snow White was also used in Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland prior to the 2006 update, specifically in the room at the end with the rotting overhead floorboards. There's an unofficial CD titled "Pirates of the...

To clear up any confusion, the sound I thought I was hearing at 0:54/0:55 in the recording (which I'm still under the impression is at the cauldron scene) was a very muffled, lower pitched "Have an apple, dearie?" that sounds nothing like any other version of that line. Then, the muffled noise...

Does this ring any bells? This is from the little Fantasyland dark ride montage from Forty Pounds of Trouble, and there's certainly a lot of emphasis on the word "apple," as with your recollection. I've never been sure if this was actually used in the ride, but it's now looking more and more...

That's three points for pillar that I've seen now, the "third" being the Ken Anderson illustration of the pillar scene, whose accompanying rhyme explicitly states that the Witch says, "Have an apple, dearie?" at that location. What do you make of the muffled sound at 0:54 in the recording, and...

Behind the cauldron scene, you mean?

I just discovered that the "Have an apple, dearie" that Stefano said he was able to make out at 1:05 in the 1972 recording is not the same "Have an apple, dearie" that I always thought I heard at the cauldron scene at 0:54/0:55. The line I hear at the cauldron is delivered with a subdued...

There's also this comment he posted on one of Benjamin Roberson's Snow White audio videos: He very clearly remembers the Witch's laugh at the cauldron (where I personally hear a barely audible "Have an apple, dearie?" in the 1972 recording) and her cackling at the cottage door, though the...

From my YouTube upload of the 1972 Snow White recording: This is an exchange between me (GoatPrince) and a commenter who actually rode the original Snow White. This guy provided a lot of detail as to the ride's audio and suggested that the recording is missing a few things, though it's hard...

I came up with this theoretical audio revamp of pre-1983 Snow White to give more substance to the very bare-bones sound design of the original ride. All of the ride's audio is changed here except for the Witch's dialogue and laughter. Maybe if things had gone a bit differently, this could have...

This technically doesn't have anything to do with the pre-1983 California dark rides, but I just found this POV of Tokyo Snow White (the best existing version of the attraction) featuring a ride stop in the Dwarfs' mine. If you didn't know, the sound effects used in the Tokyo mine scene (the...

The editing is very crusty, and the sound of Smee's gunfire nearly made me go deaf, but I appreciate the attempt at recreating the bleed-through of the Hook/Smee dialogue throughout the whole ride.

Very early concept illustration for Snow White's Adventures, which I'm sure everyone here has seen before: I'm bringing this up because I find it interesting how this early concept is actually more similar to the later interpretations of the Snow White ride than what was actually made in...

To better visualize this theoretical version of the ride, I thought it would be useful to write a Wikipedia-esque description of the entire attraction with all of my proposed changes in place, as if nothing is out of the ordinary: "Guests enter the attraction via a replica of Toad Hall, the...

When it comes to my very niche interest in the pre-1983 Fantasyland dark rides, one of my favorite things to do is listen to the Magic Joe recordings from the 1970s and intentionally focus my ears on the many sound effects bleeding through the walls from other scenes. The reason for this is not...
