    I think it was spray painted to make sure a construction worker doesn't take a piece off the site. even when it goes down into rubble a small piece with writing can be sold online to super fans

      Yes, Disney destroyed a historic piece of their history and defaced it so that NO ONE COULD SAVE ANY PART OF IT.
      It's what they do now.
      Star Wars and Splash Mountain being two things that spring to mind.

    Minor quibble - Orleanian here ! A "Mausoleum" Is a free standing building, The multi teired wall structure u are talking about is an oven crypt in which whole families share one tomb, after a year and a day on the slab per newly passed persons. So all peoples in a vertical row would be bones to bones, or maybe bags of bones together. Mausoleums are much much nicer and expensive, oven crypts used to be a very accessible price range

    Red spray paint is not a "do not destroy." If they were keeping it they would cover it with plywood to prevent damage. They haven't removed it yet because it holds a lot of dirt behind it and they're waiting until the area is mostly clear to begin replacing it.
    Side note: the wall you pointed to in the concept art as the mausoleum wall was actually the wall closer to the train station in the fastpass kiosk area (it's a short brick wall now). The mausoleum area is supposed to that part covered with the ivy in the bottom right of the photo.

    • @Mike__B
      @Mike__B 9 месяцев назад +7

      It is odd those that the red spray paint was done in such a way that covered all the writing and any symbols beneath it, e.g. there's a red arch on some of them. If it was simply a "get rid of this wall" marking I would think they would simply put a red X over it.

    If you watch how much actual Disney props go for on eBay, antique shops, second-hand shops, etc., you sort of wonder why doesn’t the Disney folks open up Disney World and Disneyland on property shops, and sell the prop items for a nice profit? I know Cast Members are able to purchase a lot of these items, at a minimal cost and resell the items at a very nice profit. Disney is all about money, so not sure why they don’t take advantage of this money making opportunity? Instead of destroying history, give the public the opportunity to own some history, and memories?

    • @Its_Asteria
      @Its_Asteria 9 месяцев назад +3

      yeah, I'd recommend trying for january, if its possible to get refunded for your booking i'd do that and rebook for tokyo disney if you can afford it, or try for a january, I highly recommend that, don't go on holidays or when the park is holiday themed unless you're fine with the crowding, and the potential to have to use genie+ (my boyfriend and I avoided it, we were on a budget as my mother was the one who paid for our entire family and some of her friends to go in october 2022. It was still fun but the experience was not as good as past visits we've had)
      so I really recommend january. we went january 2017 and that was very nice. wasn't too hot or too cold, less people because most are going in the summer or already went in december for christmas break. and the theming is taken down if I recall so its the usual park look.

    I wish they wouldn't destroy props just to discourage the theme park "black market." If Disney doesn't want them, even to archive them, then put them on auction yourself. Disney could host a charity auction for St. Jude's or Make A Wish, giving collectors a legitimate way to acquire pieces (that they know are authentic) and benefitting a good cause.

      Well they didn't take down the holiday decorations for HM because they are not expecting it to reopen until the next holiday, saving time in the long run, and Splash isn't supposed to be up until sometime next year I think. I mean if you want to visit a US based Disney park, I'd say go to WDW in Florida, while Splash is still down there too everything else is pretty good to go as it is.

      if you're looking to go to disneyland, try for the love of all that is holy, to go when NO ONE ELSE is going.
      my family made the mistake of going around halloween 2022 and it was awful. even on the not halloween days, on the weekdays, it was so extremely busy both due to themeing of the park for halloween, and halloween events, but also because people like going when its less hot or during the summer. in the past we went in January 2017 and before that we went during a summer in 2008 I think it was.
      but I'd HIGHLY recommend going january. they don't have a guest number limit so if the park is jam packed, its JAM PACKED and you will not get to do everything unless you have at least four days or more as your ticket entry, and if you're doing both disneyland and california adventure, it'll be the same for the california adventure.
      we had fun but it was a nightmare, the introduction of genie plus instead of the buy one fast pass for the entire park dealio is the other reason, people don't wanna pay to get through the line or can't pay to get through the line so you're either waiting hours, for a small ride, instead of a reasonable 30 minutes to an hour. in the past waits even in busy times would only be about an hour. I think part of what it was so bad too was small world was closed, some rides were breaking down throughout the day, toon town was closed and being changed.
      its possible that with HM closed for a year traffic may die down so I'd go this year if you can, or next january.
      the experience was a mixed bag, I had fun, we all did but I can't decide if it was worth it or not and if we should have gone to universal instead or potentially tokyo disney instead

    I am so mad about magnolia park. It’s literally one of my favorite places in Disneyland. I would sit there by the fountain and relax some days. And that area that they closed off to be the club 33 foyer ( court of angels) in New Orleans Square used to be my favorite spot to wander into as well. Disney has a way of taking all the most unique Urban spaces in New Orleans Square and either privatizing them or changing them. The fact that it’s worked as both the park space on a day that wasn’t busy and overflow Q space on a day where it was needed, and now they’re going to just blow it all up is crazy. They have a lot of room to work with between the old Fastpass station and the switchback area behind the haunted mansion wall. I’m curious to see how it all looks in the end, but I’m still upset about the park itself. Hopefully it’s not too drastic of a change.

    Maybe, perhaps, the red stuff is NOT spray paint. It might be a kind of mold slip compound. Maybe you have seen TV cop shows making casts of footprints or tire prints. If you wanted to get the best possible casting off the mausoleum, you might use a compound to cover the voids between concrete granules so the casting can get fine details but not get stuck to the concrete. Such a casting could be used as a mold to accurately reproduce all of the details of the mausoleum wall inscriptions. This mold could be used as part of a concrete form to build a new mausoleum wall in a new location and/or for a limited edition set of inscriptions for sale.

    • @hanonondricek411

      I'm with you on this. It's Disney, they can completely reproduce the wall exactly as it was or build something even better. They probably have the original renderings and color swatches for it. The red is so specifically on the lettering that it would have been easier to just paint-sprayer the entire wall go-away green than to coat the letters in such an obvious color. It makes sense they did casts of them. If they were trying to devalue the rubble to prevent thievery, they probably could have just as easily impact-hammered the lettering to dust.

    To answer your question about the Disneyland paris gates, Yes. I was there 2 weeks ago, staying at a resort hotel and got given a 'magic pass' which is your room key and park ticket in one. It is a RFID card. The gates at the entrance to the park are both barcode scanners and RFID readers so they would work with magic bands. In fact, I'm surprised that magic bands haven't become a thing at DLP yet as they already have one unified ticket for hotel rooms, entrance, and disney premier access so it seems something that should be technically possible.

    Dallin, great HM story. At first, when you showed the red paint, I thought of Walt, when the park was being built. Red in trees meant they would stay…Green would mean they would go. Can’t wait for your updates. I used to work at the Disneyland main entrance. I am happy to see them update the system. The center gates, between the turnstiles, will provide extra security. I will further explain if you want me to. The lines, however, will still be long and will be slow….because some people, especially big families, will slow the system.

    the turnstiles in paris are…decent? most of the times. the biggest hurdle we have is that people don't realize they have to wait between scanning tickets so sometimes the system will stall because it thinks someone is trying to cheat by going too fast.
    the cast members do NOT take pictures of guests though. regular 1-day tickets just scan normally. I'm honestly not sure there's any measure to prevent someone from sharing the QR code with other people since you don't scan it on your way out of the park. i think there's a limit in that you can't scan the same QR code twice within a set time, but it's pretty short-i've had friends be able to enter one of the parks, do one thing, then hop on over to the other park no problem, so the delay can't be more than like 30 minutes.
    The only people whose picture is used are annual pass holders, since we take our picture when making the pass. but everyone else? they just go through.
    also if the turnstiles are compatible with magic bands, i hope this means we're also getting magic bands in paris. that would be cool.

      There has always been retaining wall there, but the crypts were not original to the opening of the attraction. The crypts were added after it was opened and the original "family graveyard" was removed to add the queue we had all known previously. And those crypts were later removed and replaced when the wall was rebuilt to stabilize the berm.
      They did their best to recreate them, I guess succeeding since you (and many others) didn't know they were not original. In the released plans, they are intended to be recreated (again) and in several years there will be others who will think like you do that the recreations will be the there since the beginning.
      I know this after having worked there, going to the park since the early 70s, AND there being pictures of such posted on line.

  • @vectorwolf
    @vectorwolf 9 месяцев назад +1

    I'm not really surprised they tore it down. Remember though, those weren't the original queue anyway, but date back to the last queue expansion they did. I honestly expect there will be new ones in some other place in the queue, probably even with the same inscription, but that they just didn't work where they currently were as far as the new layout goes.
    As far as the paint goes, I'm also inclined to call it 'antitheft' mostly because it was specifically the names and not the panels that had no names that were defaced. Once the panels were broken up, the bits with letters would be the only ones provable to have been part of the wall.
    Anyway, I'm sure they're just being relocated and likely into a configuration that's different than the old ones. Also given the popularity of WDW's interactive queue, they'd have to completely redo them anyway if they wanted to hide some effect behind them.

    Those pun names are just impressions squished into concrete- if they don’t still have the thing they make the impressions with somewhere in Imagineering I guarantee they’re easily replaced. It would be much easier to re-pour a wall and re-squish than to cut up concrete for saving or to try and save a concrete wall for reuse. I get them putting a ton of little things in storage but saving the original wall for reuse or storage is a little beyond I think

      Some people are even theorizing that the spray paint is actually mold sealant, which would make sense if they intended to make impressions and remake the wall

    My first visit to the Haunted Mansion was May 1972 and I don't remember the queue exactly, but when I visited again in June 1975 there had been changes. I thought that the '75 queue was more efficient and more entertaining than in '72, but memories fade and are recreated.
    One issue to the older Disney attractions was a lack of exiting through gift shops. There are problems with redesigning the attractions and with headcount in the gift shops--but Star Traders is the exit for Star Wars and close to Space Mountain and whatever the 3-D theater is called now. Part of the Haunted Mansion redesign is plunking a gift shop at the exit to vacuum up more dollars from guests' credit card accounts. That wasn't part of the original design and that exit may be combined with Tiana's Bayou Adventure so that one existing merchandise location can serve both.
    Synergetic marketing and merchandising are works in progress.

    Are you sure it's not a foam layer to protect the engraved lettering? If they were going to get rid of them, they would have just dismantled the wall...SEE? OH NO!!! Who ever OK'd that needs to be the 1000th UNHAPPY Haunt!!!

    Thanks Dallin! I am now thoroughly temporally stirred up as with a big stick! I think the colloquial phrase what represents this perceptual jumblement is, "ass before nipples". All I know is that, now, whenever I pass a mirror, I see myself going by in the opposite direction! Very disconcerting!
    My favorite bit is that someone online said that the red paint was really a "releasing agent" to cause the easy removal of a reverse image mold that 'they' (imagineers?) had made of all of the priceless epitaphs! So as to allow exact replication on an replacement mausoleum type manifestation...
    I'm not falling for it...
    Or am I?
    PS: If one looks at the pictures, one will see a large contoured pile of what looks like gravel. Because it is! They have a grinder. All the brick, mortar and concrete goes in and that gravel comes out the other end! There will be no souvenirs! Unless a tiny piece of gravel floats yer boat!

    I realize this is off-topic, but Disney needs to stop tinkering and repurposing/renaming popular older attractions. Disrupting or destroying original footprints in the park that were original design that don’t really really need to be restructured. And this money and intellect into fixing what needs to be fixed.
    The people mover has been sitting dormant since the early 90s. I am old enough to remember the people mover. It was one of my favorite rides within the park. Me and my friends/family would ride it routinely three or four times a trip into Disneyland Park. Could easily reinforce the structures on this track so that they are up to current code and bring this ride back with a tremendous fanfare. You would have generations of old fans come back to this park strictly for that.
    The other would be to put the Astro orbiter back on top of the mover platform where it belongs like it is in Disney World ! The elevator ride up to the top was also fun. But it gave you a great view of all of tomorrowland and some of the rest of the park. Now it just blocks up the entrance to tomorrow and with the queue..
    Lastly, would be to find a proper use for the old America sings building! Which was another ride I thoroughly enjoyed and remembered as a kid. Instead of all these blue sky possible ideas, they might, or might not do we’ve seen how most of them turn out with the Bayou adventure, looking nothing like the concept art. Although the ride will still remain interesting and fun, it’s not looking good in terms of living up to the expectation.
    That’s all I have love your channel. I am “Pro People Mover” If you make shirts that say that I will buy several! 3xl or bigger I’m a big guy!! 😂

    Yes, I just visited Disneyland in Paris two weeks ago. As a hotel guest you now receive a Magic Pass it looks like a credit card, which is read by the gates via RFID. Therefore I think that a magic band could also be detected by the scanners without any problems. The system in Paris is really fast, but as far as I know no photos of guests are used for entry

    I feel like the big reason it hurts to see that part of the cue destroyed is even though we know it’s not real, it feels like graves are being desecrated. It just feels more wrong than any other normal sort of renovations. I just have to keep reminding myself that no one was actually buried there. The names are just gags. But it still feels wrong. Ha
