I did know about the names, but thanks for throwing it out there for all of the readers who may not have known!Ryan P.

On a different note, little known Disney fact: The Walt Disney Company never officially named te hitchhikers. Cast members started to use the names and they stuck.Kollinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08868383393339181041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8361690843089891169.post-82740715312598183922012-03-05T17:40:19.463-05:002012-03-05T17:40:19.463-05:00Excellent point.

I'd been hoping the new effect would find its way to Disneyland's mansion, but after reading this post, I'd actually like to see DL keep the original version; I would miss the scooting around on the doombuggy seat and throwing an arm across the ghost's shoulders!<br /><br />Still want the Escher stairs at DL, though. :)Rich T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01218280822336323825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8361690843089891169.post-13226590734677335042012-03-05T10:25:04.992-05:002012-03-05T10:25:04.992-05:00Great post.

I appreciate and respect Disney's desire to update attractions and keep them fresh, but this one just missed the mark for me. It changed the tone of the ride a little too much for my taste. I think your observations are spot on in this instance.EvilQwn16https://www.blogger.com/profile/12176108023660084427noreply@blogger.com
