Pirate experience at Adventureland

Great to see more things like this. Looking forward to what they have planned for Star Wars in regards to the inhabitants of the planet the land will be set in.

Now if only we could have this in Fantasylans.... :/

Nice to see Streetmosphere characters in a dead corner of the park to liven it up...

Fantasyland has the step sisters, and Gaston sort of makes a ruckus sometimes walking around.
I guess the sisters would be the closest to this, but not on a large scale.

We have the Royal Majesty Makers in Fantasyland.

This is great! I've always enjoyed the live Jack Sparrow shows. This is a wonderful plus. I hope it sticks around.

I was there yesterday and saw this. They were filming also with a dozen or so "executive-looking" cast members over seeing it all the first day.

The Pirates were really funny- one in particular. He would ride in strollers and just do typical hijynx. The wenches were making little girls pretend to wash clothes, etc.
The Royal guard all stayed together and made everyone just stay "orderly". If they caught a pirate doing hijynx they'd stare at them like a parent disapprovingly. And tell them to go about their business.

To note- there were only a couple of handlers for the 12-15 characters- and they were specifically telling people they were not posing for pictures. This didn't stop the typical foreigner from sending their kids up to take pics; however- but most adhered to the rule of just taking pics during the interactions.

I also saw a girl posing with a selfie and the pirate took a giant bite of her hair and then started spitting and running around yelling how bad it tasted. So that should teach her.

Just came from there today and Jack Sparrow and Barbossa were around with the Pirates and most actually stopped for pictures.

Love this idea!

Looks super cool. Hopefully it will stick around.

A great little addition. It's small things like this that create atmosphere, and make the time in the parks even more special and fun.

With this and Skipper Canteen, some nice plussing going on in Adventureland. Now, if only they could use that empty expansion pad to add a big E-ticket to the land (*cough* Fire Mountain *cough*)

Heck, I'd be totally fine with cloning Indiana Jones or Journey to the Center of the Earth.

From what I've learned on the forums in my first week, starting a discussion on Fire Mountain/Bald Mountain gets some folks very upset! So, since I'd never heard of it I just did the research myself

is it just me or is anyone else not seeing the pics on the first post?

Just you. The Internets don't like you.

This is a nice addition, even if it is only temporary for the holiday season.

 

[RSoxNo1]

I love it.

They typically do things like this during holiday/peak seasons. Extra emtertainment is added around the parks because of higher wait times at attractions. It is likely to be gone when the holiday season ends in early January.

Doesn't seem typical, but I'd agree that they'll likely be gone after the Christmas season. We've been to the Magic Kingdom around many holidays, but have never seen a slew of pirates and members of the Royal Navy!

Such a fun idea, would love to see more of this!

 

[barkerbird]

This is great! Much better than the "parades" from the days of the Pirates's League..ugh.

What if you're a pirate and have one hand as a hook? Is it a hook and thumb up?

No I think its what they call a Hook Up
