I too wish HM was longer. However, there was no need for the noisy kiddie playground in the queue area. It was originally intentionally designed to be a static pre-show. Quiet. Serene. Only the howl of the wolf to give an air of foreboding. Humorous epitaphs on tombstones of family members who...

I think it really depends on the attraction. As far as The Haunted Mansion goes, it was totally unnecessary and completely changed the original premise of the attraction as a whole. It changed from a visit to a "real" haunted house to a total fantasy world, with spoilers. The ghosts are not...

Yes - for some rude, inappropriate comments.

Thanks - but no. I was hoping to be able to order one online somewhere.

Precisely. No need to start a new thread just for one question on the same EXACT subject.

Does anyone know where to buy this HM Tee-Shirt other than from the Magic Kingdom?

The last time I actually saw the show in person (March, 1997), it WAS still the complete, original Tropical Serenade. Once I learned how they ruined the show with UNM (via online videos and audio), I never went there again. Had no desire to see it. Now I will gladly go see it when I get down...

UNM sucked. Big Time. That's why they didn't reinstall it after the fire. Everyone hated it, and TDO knew it. I hated, loathed, and DESPISED UNM. It was a tasteless, annoying travesty. This version is only roughly half of the original show. I'd hate to hear what you thought if you had to...

Yeah, I noticed on all the videos that the voices were difficult to hear over the noise of the water. As for the show itself - even though I've only seen it in videos - sounds incredibly good - better than it ever has - especially compared to older footage of the original. Clean, clear...

Have they tweaked the Tiki Room show any since opening? Any changes at all?

That's not the one he was looking for. This is the "official" version. Aladdin was looking for Grinning Ghost's 40th Anniversary version.

I think it's available on Mousebits.com. I released it on the USENET newsgroups back in 2003.

Yes, I have Randy Thornton's version. He also released it earlier as part of the "Wonderland" CD series of old Disneyland Records titles which came out before the Musical History set (2004?). I was not happy with what Mr. Thornton did to the audio, adding a funky reverb that was not in the...

My family first saw it in 1978, and we absolutely LOVED it! So much so that we went back three or four more times, and I made a point to buy the record album on my way out of the park. I've been listening to that soundtrack frequently for the past 33 years. My only gripe with that album is...

Try again. The actual lyrics of the deleted verse are: "Our show is delightful, we hope you'll agree! We hope that it fills you with pleasure and glee Because if we don't make you feel like that We're gonna wind up on a lady's hat."

I guess I'm "unsophisticated" too. Problem for me is that the edits are very jarring and noticeable, whereas the Disneyland cuts are not. For the longest time, I never realized that a verse was missing from "In The Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Room" in the current DL version. The complete audio of...

As it is, I just think they trimmed it way too much. The current Disneyland version seems to be "just right" to me. This version ruins the flow of the show with jarring edits, and dilutes any build-up to the finale. Hopefully they will tweak it some to make it feel more like a complete show...

They weren't going "backwards", they corrected a major blunder they made by removing it in the first place!

The videos were not edited (well, the one was, but it was relatively complete stitching two parts together between songs.) The show has been cut to pieces! This is the "Reader's Digest" version, even shorter than the truncated Disneyland version. Nearly half of the show is gone! I'm ecstatic...

Indeed, they should have, since they had to put something there anyway. So why not put a fountain back in? It at least got a mention in the edited version. They had a chance to revamp it and make it do something special as it rose up to meet the bird mobile. Oh well...
