Why is NordVPN the sponsour of this video? Because its logo has a mountain, and the video is about extinct manmade mountains. One fun fact about me is that I live near a mountain.
I hope Disney builds Fire Mountain someday. They could use a Moana theme instead of Atlantis since Moana was a hit and they love to market their princesses.
You guys forgot to include “villain mountain” which was considered at the same time as fire mountain. Ride would have been a water coaster, had most of the main Disney villains and a Chernabog animatronic. Was cancelled for some of the same reasons as fire mountain, Disney later built Little mermaid and snow whites mine train on the land Villain mountain would have been built.
It sounds like a very fun attraction. All Disney villains in one place, and you encounter them on a water coaster. I’m all in if Disney ever desires to make one.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the planned Mt. Fuji roller coaster for the Japanese pavilion. You being an ex-epcot cast member, I thought for sure it'd be on this list when I clicked on the thumbnail.
Fire Mountain could be the kick up the @ss Disneyland Park in Disneyland Paris sourly needs. There's a pretty big expansion plot between Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril and Pirates of the Caribbean that could house it. However, I still want that Indy darkride there too. Maybe Fire Mountain could come to that third gate that currently contractually needs to be build around 2030.
I don't know why Atlantis was such a failure, cause I really like it. Fire mountain would be a great way to bring it to Life... They could retheme this rollercoaster with Moana's Te fiti, though. But it definitely wouldn't be as exicting as the Atlantis' one.
@@EspenSGX I would really love to see in that plot an inmerssive Indiana Jones themed Land and I see Fire Mountain as the big draw there. I think Disneyland Paris would benefit from having an Indiana Jones land and appeal to a wider audience, here in Europe a lot of people see it as a place to go once or twice with your kids
Ah, how did REVIEW TIME miss one of the most epic of all proposed mountains that seriously considered but never came to pass?! The Mount Fuji attraction brings the center-piece of the JAPAN pavilion in EPCOT’s World Showcase. There were a number of artist renderings and even a mock up model of the Matterhorn Mountain ride-type clone found in Disneyland California. You guys are usually very thorough so I was more than surprised when your video ended and there was no mention of it what-so-ever.
Fire Mountain can still be used as a concept. Vekoma’s new flying coaster that’s in Phantasialand is sort of family friendly and innovative. A launched family flying coaster would bring thrill seekers and families to Disney. Animal Kingdom is due for a rollercoaster to give Disney some time to repair Expedition Everest.
All of these sounded so cool and I wish we got them all. But I won't get over the loss of fire mountain. I'm a massive fan of Atlantis the Lost Empire and wish it still had a presence in the parks. It's such a cool film with a really interesting world that needed to be explored more. It seemed like such a cool concept for a ride and would have added a great thrill ride to Adventureland. Real unfortunate.
My favourite mountain I've been to is Space Mountain. Agitable motion in darkness. Most thrilling mountain ride among the Disney Parks. I loved it so much!
A lot of people who were very young when Atlantis, Chicken Little, and Home on the Range hold a nostalgia for it so something for Atlantis would be cool
I wanna see these fully-realized rides and attractions for Disney’s Animal Kingdom! - Dinoland USA - The Excavator - another dinosaur-related dark ride - a dinosaur carousel - Asia - a reimagined Kali River Rapids with various jungle animals and a new name as “Kali Tiger River Rapids Run” - an Eastern Dragon roller coaster near Expedition Everest - Africa - Tarzan jungle roller coaster - The Lion King dark ride - Other Rides and Attractions - more carousels
All good ideas. I would also love for them to create a North America themed area and include a Bambi ride, wishfully a second log flume to compete with Splash Mountain. It’s unbelievable that in over seventy years Disney has never had a Bambi attraction.
I'm glad that Candy Mountain never happened, really not into that theme, I can't see how it can be done without coming off tacky and gimmicky. Gutted the Paris one never happened, that would have been absolutely incredible.
Let's not forget the proposed and originally planned Mt. Fuji behind the Japan pavilion at EPCOT--a Japanese version of the Mighty Matterhorn at Disneyland. Later when they got closer to a "go" on the proposed Africa area, it was moved to become Kilamanjaro. But...well...we did get Everest. (Smile) ALSO, the original Big Rock Candy Mountain at Disneyland had as a plan REAL candy with a candy/soda river that kids could dip into or break treats off of.....until they realized the draw it would be for birds, bugs, and other critters and the sanitary issues. Ooops.
Starting to not like Disney tbh. It’s starting to look like sheer luck anything gets built. Too much politics. Too much over promising. Too much wasted money.
Universal seems to operate much better these days. They open new rides much quicker than Disney but are as equally if not better quality than Disney (Hagrids, velocicoaster, secret life of pets dark ride).
@@19kilo241 totally agree. Disney seems stuck in some sort of malaise as if it sees it more important to be virtual signalling everyone rather than actually being a theme park/entertainer and just letting people enjoy themselves. Universal seems aware that first and foremost its a theme park and still interested in the ‘general public’ rather than just the high spenders which Disney seems obsessed with at the moment. The sacking of so many experienced staff and entertainers is an example in cutting your throat for a short term financial benefit that will end up biting you for example.
Wasn't there a planned Mt. Fuji coaster for the Japan pavilion at Epcot? Another possibility for Adventure or Frontierland could be "Rattlesnake Canyon" a clone of Hong Kong's mine train...
The big rock candy mountain makes sense considering the mountains place in hobo lore, meaning Walt was probably entertaining his love for trains again. XD
I have many fond memories of cool days at early Dinoland USA. I very much loved Countdown to Extinction and Primeval Whirl, even through the latter was just a spinning wild mouse.
If you ask me, I say bring The Excavator back from the Never-Built attraction morgue and Dinoland will be saved, with Dino-Rama switch to Pangaea after Jim Henson's Dinosaurs.
The Vekoma coaster would have been great. I like the wooden coaster concept, however (Disney has never operated a wooden coaster) Wayyyy more maintenance for them to tolerate. They used real candy on the rock candy model. A studio window was open. It melted in the warm SoCal temp. Birds came in to eat IT. LOL! That's from Disneyland Inside Story book. It's fun to "knock" about ideas until that "budget thing" comes into play.
I really wish they had build the mt Fuji rollercoaster in Epcot. The world pavilion could use if, and if would have been a great mountain to add to the collection
Awesome video, as usual! I'm most intrigued by Fire Mountain. I had even heard a rumour a few years ago that Disney had plans to build a volcano-based roller coaster in Adventureland, but using the Moana IP in place of Moana. I definitely hope to get some sort of thrill experience in that corner of the park eventually.
There was also a mountain planned for Indiana Jones that would include The Jungle Cruise - The Forbidden Eye - and a mine car rollercoaster all housed in the same building.
It’s crazy how many different mountain themed rides were canceled, 4 In this video and everyone in the comments is talking about their favorite canceled one
Funny thing, Atlantis may have been a flop but that didn't stop them from making a sequel. All the mountains sound cool except the candy one. Though I could see them still doing something similar and theming it to Wreck It Ralph and the candy races.
with disney paris as my home away from home. I would love to have seen the mountain for discoveryland. I have been to Tokyo disney sea and loved the look they have there. It would have been a great fusion :) but still would want to keep our space mountain, it is really the best. Can confirm after trying tokyo and orlando

Me too! Sorry we didn’t get Mt Fuji roller coaster!
@@thewindofsuicune maybe he already covered it?
@@IkePaz He did, in an Epcot canceled attractions.
The fact they never built the Excavator, and instead the abomination known as Dino-Rama will be a sin long remembered in my heart.
Disney should definitely bring the fire mountain somewhere maybe Paris
It looks pretty close to Journey to the Center of the Earth at Tokyo DisneySEA

If Rock Candy Mountain was made today, it would be Sugar Rush themed.

Apparently Fire Mountain is still on the drawing board themed to Moana.
Which park is it for do you know?
@@madandy2008 Magic Kingdom in Adventureland.

Many of the original ideas for Discoveryland in Paris ended up in Mysterious Island (Tokyo DisneySea)

They need to have something without an IP like what Cedar Point does with its Coasters

Omg there was an actual Candy Mountain, like the one in Charlie the unicorn😄

Also have the matterhorn at Epcot that didn’t get built.
If you do a part 2, can you talk about the Disney Villain mountain?
That Pepto colored castle was AWFUL
I wonder what rock candy mountain would have been like
Is the fire mountain expansion plot still there?
Yep it still exists! They would just need to change around some roads backstage
Great channel!
Fire mountain!
What are mou-tains?
Mountains!
sad that these never made it off of the draw-ring board
Big Rock Candy Mountain = Sugar Rush. Have the cars designed to look like the cars in Wreck it Ralph. Done.
Love it!
All of them
love your videos
Well you can't make everything.

You forgot Splash Mountain. Splash Mountain was also "cancelled". Just in a different sense of the word. It was cancelled by leftists on Twitter.
U forgot the n on the title
