It looks like an amazing attraction. I may be in the minority, but my only thing is I’m not crazy about such a reliance on screens. Perhaps it looks so good in person that it doesn’t matter. It’s such a different experience that it’s hard to call it Pirates of the Caribbean. It deserves its own name.
I love Pirates of the Caribbean, and I have to say this is the best version of it that I’ve been on. I rode it, got off, and literally went right back on again. So good
Such a great dark ride, my only critique is how bright the screens are on the battling boat scene but i figure it looks a little more realistic in person. Would love to visit some day
Why are the best versions of Disney and Universal rides are in their international parks? The Jurassic World ride in Universal Beijing is also the best version.
Well with Disney Shanghai, it’s their newest global park, so all the rides are going to be fully modern and with the best technology, no retrofitting of older stuff is required like at the rides at their older legacy parks in the U.S. etc
The first commenter here is spot on. Another piece is the desire to preserve the history of the theme park. Yes, there are efforts to update some rides but it has not been without nonsense pushback (e.g., Splash Mountain will become Tiana's Bayou; tiki bird changes).
Honestly, this is the only version that's superior in Shanghai. A lot of it comes from the fact that it was made later, and they could tweak LITTLE things about their classic rides to improve them. That's my reasoning for Shanghai and Paris. Tokyo, the reasoning there is because of the Oriental Land Company
This is an incredible ride, but it has about as much in common with the other Pirates rides as Mystic Manor does with the other Haunted Mansions - it's doing something totally different. Shanghai Pirates has essentially taken a tightly-paced modern (post-Indy) dark ride and disguised it as a traditional boat ride, and adapted the movies instead of the existing ride. This may be way more impressive, but I don't think any attraction will ever touch Disneyland's original in terms of sheer atmosphere.
…you wanted them to just rehash a same ride that already exists at 3 parks already? This comment is too nitpicky. I think this looks amazing. It would have been boring to just see a rehash of the original ride which already exists at literally three amusement parks already.
@@fd3 I mean there's plenty of ways they could've kept the original concept of the ride and make new scenes without leaning entirely into the Pirates franchise (not just including references). I obviously think this is great, but it's fair to say that this is an entirely different take on it. It would've been cool to see a new and modern take on the town scene from the other ones.
@@fd3 This isn't bad, Dave is just saying he doesn't prefer it over the OG and ALSO thinks it's so far removed from the original ride that it's practically a whole different one, and the original pirates may not even be its closest relative, aside from some occasional Easter Eggs during the beginning. He doesn't say it's bad, or anything he thinks they SHOULD have done
@daveconsumesmedia I agree. This is a fantastic ride, but it’s completely different than the original Pirates at Disneyland and WDW. Most of this ride is very well done projection mapping, but the fact that the original Pirates rides are still achieving just as immersive experiences with mostly older technology definitely says something about the brilliance of those attractions as well. But even then, the stories and experiences are very different. It’s like trying to compare a wooden coaster to a steel launch. Things to appreciate about both.
I’ve ridden the OG in Anaheim as well as Floridas version and I love them. And I understand and get what you’re saying, but in terms of atmosphere, they pale in comparison to this. And yes I understand the technology now is better, but this literally makes you feel as though you’re under the water and in a new realm. I rode it twice in 2018, it’s so amazing
One of the most INCREDIBLE rides I’ve ever seen 🙂 It would be a DREAM of mine to experience this in real life! I’ve been hoping to for years! I absolutely can’t state how fabulous this ride looks!
There are actually two endings to this attraction. One is shown here with the treasure Jack gets being cursed, the other is where it's not cursed and he sings the Pirates theme song from the original version of the ride. From my experince they appear to be done somewhat randomly.
If you get to ride this again, please get ULTRA close up with that super nice 4k camera to the Jack appearing from a skeleton peppers ghost effect. That alone is worth the price of admission but I never get to see this very close up.
LOL! I went there! MANY times! Was there one night in 2021 and the park was nearly empty because there was a case of covid in the community north of the park, so people were paranoid about going to Disney. I rode this ride at least 4 if not 5 times. Back to back because, as I said, there was nobody else in line. It was getting late and figured by the time I get to any other ride everything will be closed, so I just rode Pirates over and over again.
This is the first time ive ever been able to appreciate the scale of this attraction through video. The pacing is nice and there is a lot of slow moments but even the transitional rooms between scenes are massive
I don't know if I'd call this the "Best version", it's definitely a different version, different story and all that. A bit too much reliance on screens though.while some of the large screen effects look fantastic, they seem to fall flat with the effects like the ships all coming to the surface here's the big splash of waves from Davy Jone's ship.... on the screen, meanwhile the boat is in calm water.
Why would they, it's much harder to impress people outside of America which is why they put so much more care into the parks. But don't expect that ever to be in the US, they couldn't care less about us. Take prices for example, it costs a car to go to disney. You think any of that is going to improving the parks instead of lining the pockets of stupid people?
Lame comment is lame. Pirates Disneyland blows this away. Shanghai does not have Avatar. Or Guardians coaster. Or Galaxy's edge. Or Ratatouille. Or Haunted Mansion. Or Test Track. Or Indiana Jones. So please stop with this "Overseas parks are better than USA parks" BS.
This is one of the main reasons we are saving up to go to Shanghai next year. Then again, being for Oceania region it is a lot cheaper and easier to get to for us as well :D
Look, I love the version in orlando and cali, but my god this version is freakin epic. Reminds of the Rise of the Resistance Immersion feel. Disney may be gouging people, but some of their new rides are epic.
Ok...as HUGE as my love of the OG version of Pirates at WDW is, and was cool with the additions after the movies...I can honestly say a revamp to this version at WDW would be an INCREDIBLE addition to the park. Holy crap.
People you need to remember a lot of these international parks are more modern / newer than the original Disney in Anaheim and in Orlando. People here in the states need to be happy and appreciate that we have the first Disneyland.
I grew up by the California one and then I went to Orlando. I was so disappointed that the Orlando one and I found out all the other ones don't have a waterfall. California definitely the best one. Only one with waterfall. Really invigorates you right at the beginning
You did not lie. Shanghai is THE BEST! Right before this video, I watched the one for Paris and thought, why aren't there any mermaids in any of the parks. Shanghai got the memo! If I'm ever so lucky as to travel to Shanghai, Pirates will be THE FIRST attraction I ride. That was phenomenal!
I've been to Disneyland so many times, was obsessed with pirates of the Caribbean ride(even got incredibly angry when they removed Davy Jones from the fog for a bit in California).... But this? THIS IS GLOOOOOORIOUS!! I could not believe I was on a ride. It was simply perfected. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤. This may be the very reason that I get a passport. LMAO
Although the screen version was impressive, I'll still take the American version of the animatronics anyday! Also, I'm shocked Disney didn't use the original voices of all the characters, they have the technology to change the language.
Am I the only person that actually sees what Disney has really imagineered here? A ride practically without AUDIOANIMATRONICS (1!) , without KINETICS, without a lot of SETS and MOSTLY SCREENS. This ride looks at first sight very impressive, but it's actually far less elaborate than the Disneyland or WDW rides.
@@e.l.norton I am not comparing this with the truly terrible mediocre or worse attractions of the dreadful Iger era who actually killed imagineering. I am comparing it with the real thing, PotC in Disneyland and the slightly shorter WDW version. It is still much better than the Iger crap, that’s true, but compare with the old Walt Disney era rides. Practically no kinectics, no movement, a minimum of sets and props.
@@schneetiger9249 The new crop of so-called imagineers are being told no animatronics. They want cheap. It's disgusting. They don't want maintenance costs, etc. There's no point with that mindset.
This is obviously awesome; however, I find it nostalgic and just as thrilling to ride the OG rides at Disneyland and Disneyworld. Don't mind seeing new IP using the new technology. But I'm glad Disney is not "updating" rides for the sake of technology.
I agree, although they did update the rides for the sake of IP, Jack Sparrow was never on the original ride (obviously). And as with every real person, they're just one crazy lawsuit away from Disney removing them from the ride all together, luckily that can be done fairly easily with PotC.
The technology here is incredible. But it feels more based off the movies (absolutely nothing wrong with that) and not the true, OG, Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland Anaheim. It looks like a wonderful ride in its own way but I didn’t even hear the music (yo ho a pirates life for me) I may have just missed it but the music is as nostalgic as the smell, blue bayou, the falls, battle scene etc. but I definitely think it would be a “must do” ride if I ever make it there 🙂
I will say there was a lack of use of animatronics here though it was crazy how the screen followed the boats movement to make it look like there was depth to it
SO IMPRESSIVE in fact that I watched it a few times ! SO much to see… you find different things each time 🏆 VERY professionally done! Bravo 👏🏼 Thank YOU attractions 360° !! Thank you for bringing this to us… 🥇 It was excellent indeed !
I wish I had known Mandarin when we went. We rode so many times (no lines when we went) that the rest of my family said this has ruined the regular PotC attraction for them b/c regular one now feels so slow and “boring” afterwards, lol.
I went to Shanghai Disneyland on its opening day, and this attraction absolutely blew my mind! People tell me how great Rise of the Resistance is on a regular basis. They have no clue! None at all. Rise doesn't hold a candle to Shanghai's Pirates, and you'll just have to go and check it out yourself one day. It's worth it.
What I really like is that we see the Dutchman underwater and little bits of what the crew does down there it’s like they have there own little neighborhood or something I wonder if this would be canon to the movies
Really cool, what is even more impressive is that ride takes the audience to Puerto Rico.. the COQUI sound (a small frog) you hear in the background is native to Puerto Rico (and only lives and survives there, and apparently Hawaii now too?)..So the Pirates of the Caribbean are in Puerto Rico??
It’s Chinese! I don’t understand it now but, understood what they spoke when they said it! I was from China but, didn’t grow up in China! I was adopted so, I don’t know my real parents.
The biggest difference is that, while most other versions have incorporated elements from the movies into the original ride's format, some doing it better than others, this one focuses solely on the films. Though I do wish they would've brought in more characters than just Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones, I am 100% amazed and in love with how immersive it is. Even just watching through my laptop screen, I felt like I was bobbing on the waves with those massive ships. INCREDIBLE! (2/23/2024)
I believe it is a Pepper's ghost illusion where the skeleton is reflected on a piece of glass in front of the Jack animatronic. Once the light is turned on for Jack, the skeleton light is turned off and the glass becomes transparent.
@efaciler2462 Disney World is a straight up downgraded version of Disneyland's 😂 It was rushed cause people complained there wasn't a Pirates over in Magic Kingdom and as a result is missing a lot of scenes and atmosphere from the New Orleans aesthetic
This is very cool -- I would love for there to be "sequel" rides. I wouldn't want the original Pirates ride to be replaced with something like this, but would LOVE if we could have a ride like this NEXT DOOR to the original ride. Give me a separate Pirates Land with several unique Pirates dark rides -- maybe a Pirates coaster. This is obviously an impressive attraction, though a little too much screen work for me (though the screens are incorporated very well). The charm of the OG Pirates is that you are surrounded by such lush sets with so much to see, you can always find new details to appreciate. This ride is more of a big narrative experience.
Honestly, if you stripped Jack Sparrow from the OG Pirates ride, and stripped the references from the beginning, you could literally have these two rides next door to each other as separate rides. I honestly don't see either of them as better than each other, although from a quality perspective, probably the original, so I really CAN'T call this the best POTC ride in the world, but it doesn't mean I don't love it
While it is super impressive and I would love to have the chance to experience it in person someday, it is missing the charm and atmosphere like the original and other old rides
I'm not usually one for rides that utilize large screens. But the folks who designed this did their due diligence. Things that are happening on the screens interact with things off the screen very well, and they are synced similarly.
This is epic. But I still like the original better with the double drops, the skull before the first drop, the burning town, the theme music, and the jail scene near the end not beginning. I just think it flows better even if the technology is outdated.
Actually, I'll take the ride at Disneyland in Anaheim that inspired the movie over the ride that was inspired by the movie. Along with the animatronics instead of a screen. I don't get the underwater part either, although it was cool looking. This looked fun, but it's the original for me 😀💯
As the Pirates movies to continue to fade into the past and into obscurity, I don't think this ride will age terribly well. To be sure, it looks like an amazing experience, but the original pirates had a timeless quality whereas what this ride is based on has a shelf life.
“The franchise has grossed over $4.5 billion worldwide; it is the 16th-highest-grossing film series of all time, and is the first film franchise to produce two or more movies that grossed over $1 billion.” The fact that there are rides based on less successful movies than these and have probably stood for a long time or will have no problem to, I think your comment itself won’t age well

Such a great dark ride, my only critique is how bright the screens are on the battling boat scene but i figure it looks a little more realistic in person. Would love to visit some day
I think the camera is also nightmode so the screens might appear brighter
Screens generally look worse in videos like these than they do irl
The screens aren't that bright, it's just them insistintg on filming everyting way too bright. It's annoying. The ride looks different in real life.
It does look better in person, but they could bring the contrast down on them a bit in real life.
My critique is that I wish they would add smoke blasting out of Davy Jones' organ as he's playing it. Kinda like in the movie.

Though I do wish they would've brought in more characters than just Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones, I am 100% amazed and in love with how immersive it is. Even just watching through my laptop screen, I felt like I was bobbing on the waves with those massive ships. INCREDIBLE! (2/23/2024)
Does anyone know how exactly they do the trick at 2:30? With the skeleton becoming Jack?
I believe it is a Pepper's ghost illusion where the skeleton is reflected on a piece of glass in front of the Jack animatronic. Once the light is turned on for Jack, the skeleton light is turned off and the glass becomes transparent.
Here you find the answer
Of the other versions, Paris > CA > Tokyo > WDW. But this is the king, for sure.
Holy cow, this was absolutely amazing. We need this in Florida.
Ha! No! Not in Walt Disney legacy we won’t need it!
So cool! Nice camera work, too!
Looks amazing!
I wish this was in CA 😭 this is just too amazing
Nah! Walt wouldn’t want that!
The first two minutes I thought it was pretty lame but suddenly at 2:16 it became absolutely amazing
Impressive use of screens, but... Disneyland's is still best.
No way Disney world is better
Nah Disneyland on top
@efaciler2462 Disney World is a straight up downgraded version of Disneyland's 😂 It was rushed cause people complained there wasn't a Pirates over in Magic Kingdom and as a result is missing a lot of scenes and atmosphere from the New Orleans aesthetic
That's pretty epic. Very centered around the movies though.
So cool! I wish we had this in Paris
This is very cool -- I would love for there to be "sequel" rides. I wouldn't want the original Pirates ride to be replaced with something like this, but would LOVE if we could have a ride like this NEXT DOOR to the original ride. Give me a separate Pirates Land with several unique Pirates dark rides -- maybe a Pirates coaster. This is obviously an impressive attraction, though a little too much screen work for me (though the screens are incorporated very well). The charm of the OG Pirates is that you are surrounded by such lush sets with so much to see, you can always find new details to appreciate. This ride is more of a big narrative experience.
Honestly, if you stripped Jack Sparrow from the OG Pirates ride, and stripped the references from the beginning, you could literally have these two rides next door to each other as separate rides. I honestly don't see either of them as better than each other, although from a quality perspective, probably the original, so I really CAN'T call this the best POTC ride in the world, but it doesn't mean I don't love it
does the japanese version have several flying dutchmans and davy jones being able to turn into a blue orb? crazy world
While it is super impressive and I would love to have the chance to experience it in person someday, it is missing the charm and atmosphere like the original and other old rides
This is the best ride I've ever seen
Where is this?? Im running straight there with the potc inthusiasm i have
I'm not usually one for rides that utilize large screens. But the folks who designed this did their due diligence. Things that are happening on the screens interact with things off the screen very well, and they are synced similarly.
すっごい凄すぎるこれこそカリブの海賊だよ
🇯🇵もこれくらいリアルにして欲しい
This is epic. But I still like the original better with the double drops, the skull before the first drop, the burning town, the theme music, and the jail scene near the end not beginning. I just think it flows better even if the technology is outdated.
Absolutely insane!
I've been in Paris and Los Angeles. Cant really tell which one is better, I think they were very similar actually.
Paris better
A rare occasion of screens being absolutely amazing bit of tech for a ride!
This is incredible
Wow!! That’s awesome 👏🏻
6:11 literally the best bit
Same, I love it.
The part with the dog and key with the prisoners trying to get out. Its weird seeing them in skeletal form.
OMG!! Incredible! USA needs to up their game!!
geez the show building must be huge for this lol
It's absolutely great. But gotta remember the difference. The og is forever
Holy balls this was good!
Actually, I'll take the ride at Disneyland in Anaheim that inspired the movie over the ride that was inspired by the movie. Along with the animatronics instead of a screen. I don't get the underwater part either, although it was cool looking. This looked fun, but it's the original for me 😀💯
This version makes is AMAZING in comparison with the Orlando one
Brilliant so much more better than Paris
As the Pirates movies to continue to fade into the past and into obscurity, I don't think this ride will age terribly well. To be sure, it looks like an amazing experience, but the original pirates had a timeless quality whereas what this ride is based on has a shelf life.
“The franchise has grossed over $4.5 billion worldwide; it is the 16th-highest-grossing film series of all time, and is the first film franchise to produce two or more movies that grossed over $1 billion.”
The fact that there are rides based on less successful movies than these and have probably stood for a long time or will have no problem to, I think your comment itself won’t age well
Those screens are such a shame, a lack of vision and imagineering. The rest of the sets look amazing tough.
Wow! That looks fantastic!
Awesome!
2:21 HOW!!!
Where was this?
Truly magnificent
