New Effects at Indiana Jones Adventure - Disneyland

[sponono88]

A new special effect has debuted at Indy today:

New Curse Unleashed on Indiana Jones Adventure – You’ll never look at Mara the same way again! Come experience the classic attraction for yourself starting today.

This comes after the extensive refurb the ride received last year. I guess the effect wasn't ready until now!

It's a projection on the Mara head and a rerecording of mara's voice though I'm not totally sure if the script is different.

Interesting. I'll have to go check it out this weekend.

Let's hope they cleaned up that audio and made that important plot-setting scene more concise. As it's been, your jeep enters the doors and heads towards Mara and this is what you hear; "YOU HAARVE ERNTEREHHD JAHLRAHBIT AHND RARHBASHTO DASLIT!!!!"

Uh, what did she say? I take it we are now in some sort of danger?

We rode it twice on Monday. The first room was completely dark both times save for the headlights on the ride vehicle, and the volume seemed to have been turned way up to the point that you could understand Mara even less than usual in the next room. Maybe this had something to do with the new effects?

I'm not feeling Mara's new voice, at all. Hopefully with enough complaints, they'll change it back.

The new effect, however, is very creepy and cool. I like it.

Looking forward to seeing the change soon.

Wow cool! But I'm with @raven24 about the voice. The effect itself looks great. I bet it looks better in person!

I can't believe you missed it by that much!

It's kinda creepy, looks like she's bloody.

I know! It broke down twice while I was riding it. The service lights went on and everything. We were sitting in our jeep for 20 minutes waiting for the ride to turn on again. It was funny because when the ride stopped, our vehicle was still doing its simulator movements.

Indy has never been down while I've been on. I'd love to see it with the lights on.

It was weird. We got stuck on the part with the rats. When the lights went on, it was a regular black hallway with a bunch of of exit signs. It even had a telephone at the end of it. It was so strange lol.

Hahaha, yes, the phones are for the CMs during evacuations. Very cool you got to see that.

Shoot - we rode it twice and I don't even remember a part with rats. Too much to take in I guess...

That's kinda cool that you got to see everything with the lights on! I've been going to amusement parks for years and have only experienced lots of minor shut downs, never anything fun.

I can see what you mean. I went on the ride 4 times an it still wasn't enough. It's such a good ride, much better than Dinosaur at Animal Kingdom.

MiceChat has posted a video on their FB... It's even cooler than the video above:

^ Woah.. that looks amazing. Definitely a big improvement over the previous effect with the puff of smoke coming from the eye. The new voice will take some getting used, but the new effects more than make up for it. I like the new starfield lighting in the room as well.

Thanks for posting the link! Can't wait to see what the Fountain of Eternal Youth effect looks like.

Mara's voice has always sounded masculine to me.
