I used too think this show was so cool as a kid. I was super impressed by the animatronics of the robot in 1999 (I think I was 6-7?) and even compared to todays ride standards this is pretty impressive. - Anyone else think it would be a nice idea to bring the show back some how as a tribute to Robin Williams?
Rest In Peace Robin Williams.
Same! Also, I hate how he butchers the Japanese language at the end. "Arigato gozaimaster?" It's "Arigato gozaimass."
Yes! I miss Robin Williams! 😔
I miss Robin Williams, He was and always shall be one of the greatest in history!
Now please form double rows and move to the centre of the theatre. DO IT! THEY'VE BEEN WAITING OUTSIDE, THEY'VE BEEN IN LINE FOR A WHILE! JUST DO IT! Thank you. LOL

1:44 The Time keeper
He was Yelling JUST DO IT before Shia Labeouf made it popular
(God we love you Robin Williams)
+Evan Bernardi Why didn't this version become the meme? XD
+Evan Bernardi The original "JUST DO IT!"
Evan Bernardi a
He predicted it.
Evan Bernardi hi Evan
Disney and Robin Williams...a *MAGIC* combination! He was a national treasure and beloved by all. May he have found the peace he was desperately seeking.
We love and miss you, Robin.
*R.I.P.*
Wow these are actually fairly impressive looking animatronics for the early to mid 90s.
What do u mean, the animatronics in the theme parks in my country are nothing compared to that one, not even in 2020
@@lenakingsleigh Out of curiosity, what country are you from, if I may ask?
wdym 'fairly' it looks amazing even now
It's really a shame they took this down, I have a feeling that had this ride stayed around it'd have skyrocketed in popularity now because of the nostalgia feel for Robin Williams. I miss this ride..
odd thing is the robot almost has some resembelance to robin williams
Rest In Peace, Robin. We never had a friend like you.
Savaemaz Well said
Savaemaz Amen. Robin Williams was an awesome American actor and a great comedian.
As somebody who hasn't seen many Disney movies because they were a Warner Bros. fan as a kid (my favorite Disney movie is Hercules), I can say that this is my favorite Robin Williams performance. This and his performance in Hook.
I saw this with my dad back in October of 2003. I remember really enjoying it at the time, unfortunately around the 7:33 mark there was a power outage in the auditorium and we had to leave. I always wanted to go back and see how it ended. Now I can. Thank you!
12:16
fun fact: that is the very castle that Sleeping Beauty's Castle at Disneyland is based on.
I unfourtunley never got to experience this attraction when it was open and if I did then I was too young to remember, but I gotta say that this show had some really impressive animatronics for an attraction made in the 90s, especially the 9 eye animatronic. I also wish that disney would bring this show back to honor the death of robin williams like they did with captain eo when micheal jackson died, but it's been over 2 years since we lost robin williams so I'm afraid it's never gonna happen at this point :(
I wish they would bring it back too, but it won't happen. The space where this was is being used by a completely different show and it doesn't have the Circle-Vision screens anymore. The reason they brought back Captain Eo was because they could do it easily, and no one cared for Honey I Shrunk the Audience
Samuel Black Same.. /:
Another reason is it would probably cost a lot to build a new Timekeeper and 9 Eye animatronic for something that'll just be a temporary overlay
They need to bring this back. Monsters Inc Laugh Floor isn't bad, but it really doesn't belong in tomorrowland.
I'm not trying to turn Robin William's tragic death into anything positive, but I could foresee this attraction coming back in the near future as a tribute to him, similar to how Disney brought back Captain EO in tribute to Michael Jackson.
+Spinlok I totally agree. Also I think it's funny that you're talking about what doesn't belong in Tomorrowland when your username references something that some people also think didn't belong in Tomorrowland. XD
jetraydude Oh, it did belong in tomorrowland. I don't care what people think.
Spinlok I personally think it would have fared better in Disneyland, but I do think it was neat for Disney to step out of their comfort zone a bit.
The Laugh Floor is great! My favorite thing at Disney
Epic Steampunk Williams.
I kinda like his British accent in the English countryside part, but it's nothing compared to S.I.R.'s.
I went on the ride in 1995 when I was 10, no body could've voiced the robot better then the great Robin Williams very funny
I am so glad you uploaded this! That is where my 1st job was in the college program as assigned to attractions. RIP Robin Williams! He left us too soon!
I miss Robin Williams.. :-( I am remembering him today on the 2nd anniversary of his death by watching his films.
i miss him too do you have photos of timekeeper that you can send me if so can i give you my address
"I should save it for the next show"
Sequel never came out
It amazes me how smoothly animatronics moved back in the 90's! :O They've come a long way from the stiff ones on the Peter Pan ride for an example.
Mr. H.G. Wells is Jeremy Irons. XD Miss you, Robin. :(
1:44 Predicted the 2015 meme 20 years before
One of the finest Disney’s productions made for a park ever!
Are we just gonna skim past that glaring horizons reference at 11:59? They even had the music!
I remember watching this and thinking how amazing the robot looked! Wow I'm glad to have been able to see it again
I wish they had never ever closed down the Timekeeper attraction that used to be in the Tomorrowland area in the Magic Kingdom park at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando in Florida on February 26th of 2006 in the first place from the start to begin with to replace it for the Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor. They should've still kept the Timekeeper attraction opened to this very exact day as a tribute in memory of Robin William who died on August 11th of 2014.
I wish i lived in florida so I could experience this attraction before it closed. Now that I watched it on TH-cam I actually enjoyed it.
I've give you Voices from The Timekeeper
1. Robin Williams (The Genie)
Movie: Aladdin (1992) and Aladdin and the King of Thevies (1996)
2. Rhea Perlman (Judith) Sing (2016)
Oh snap!!! Sneaky Jeremy Irons at 7:48. Not sure if there's anyone else famous in the film, but Im betting they filmed this of him around the same time he did the narration for Spaceship Earth.
They need to bring this back if they havnt in memory of Robin Williams. ✊
Thank you Jeff for sharing timekeeper with us, I had forgotten about this attraction. RIP Robin Williams
"And please don't sit on the floor! My studies show you can't experience time travel on the floor... and it's not a pretty picture in those shorts!" 🤣
I loved the Timekeeper and that whole attraction so much. I'm still so sad it's closed since a few years! Thanks for bringing back the memories! :)
They should bring back that ride
I know it makes sense from a business perspective to replace these rides with iconic Disney characters but this seriously fit Tomorrowland better than what replaced it. The same goes for the Frozen ride at EPCOT.
Awesome! I never had the chance to experience this but I wish I could have. R.I.P Timekeeper Nov 1994-Feb 2006
Yes, I remember that, way back on my first trip to Walt Disney World in 1995! It was fun! We are all going to miss him very, very much!
Rest in peace Robin Williams, you will be missed
the timekeeper when i came in 2001 and early 2006 would talk to me and then run tests on me and the rest of the audience he then he would send nine eye through time and space and then i got to be part this is what he would say chris come closer please before running the tests then he say at the end trying to finish parts of my first name time to go chris oh or christo
💖Its been 5 years and I miss him so much... He shaped my childhood and made me who I was today...im still shocked of his death and will never miss him rest in piece my beautiful kærasti 💖
Seeing as how I never got to experience this ride, it was by mere chance I stumbled across a POV video. The moment I heard The Timekeeper's voice, I was all, "Holy crap, Robin?!" Alas, it will never be again. Rest In Peace.
Loved this attraction. Closed in 2006 right? I forgot about Jeremy Irons.
TheClownShooze Yeah. That weird, insane, obnoxious, aggravating, awkward and random English actor Jeremy Irons played in this Disney show back in 1995-2006 a long time ago.
I thought I knew everything there is to know about Disney attractions. And I mean EVERYTHING! But today is the first time I even heard of this one.
You know...I wouldn't mind if they re-purposed these Droids in Galaxy's Edge to give the attraction more immersive color and personality.
OK I’ve seen two movies where Robin Williams portray has an artificial intelligence.
Robin lives Forever! Yay!
I loved this attraction when I went to Disney in 95 and 99. Unlike SIR and Starnac, Timekeeper wasn't hot to me because he was supposed to be a mad scientist, so they made him deliberately unattractive. Besides, he has a partner already, Nine-Eye. Nine-Eye was cool.
Quiet! Blinky, I’m on a roll!
This plays just like a movie, and it would have made an awesome 90s movie. Too bad no one thought to push it that far.
17:17 That kid definitely had fun :3
Robin Williams
I’m sad that I’ve never gotten to experience this
Eisner era attractions, had a self-awareness beyond their time… come at me
Omg I forgot about this attraction!!!
I can't stop thinking about *9-Eye* as *Garnet* from Steven Universe and I have no idea why
Oh yeah, look again, Frenchy. You're grounded. LOL.
R.I.P.
Robin Williams! ='(
now, universal is better than disney
The animatronics are incredibly impressive for that time!
How did I not know about this? o.o
THANK U for posting this as it was one of my absolute favorites!!
I have been racking my brain for YEARS trying to remember this ride. I was about 8 years old when I got on this ride, but I was so afraid of robots that I cried through the entire opening, so it was all very vague. When I went back for my 16th birthday, I planned on facing my fears and going back on, but it was replaced. I could remember exactly where it was, I even ran up to the building just to be encountered with Monster’s Inc, just not the name. THANK YOU so much for this video! This is the only thing that I can remember from that entire day at Disney, and I was beginning to think I made it up since no one knew what I was talking about.
You were afraid of robots? Thank God you didn't go on Alien Encounter. S.I.R. would've put you in a panic attack.
I can totally see how this attraction would frighten a small child. tbh, I'm not sure whether I would have been mystified in a good or a bad way had I seen it at age 5.
I vaguely remember this as a child, Robin Williams is what I remember most but for some reason I thought that he was the flying robot lol. Thank you for this, what a wonderful trip through time! *pun intended* 😁
I remember this when I was 2 years old. I only remember glimpses of the whole thing and one name: Nine Eyes. I didn't know who voiced the Time Keeper, but now that I do, I almost want this back, somewhere somehow. Now that I got to watch it here, I would pay to go see it in person every single ***time***.
I remember going on this ride, I just never remember what it was called!
ThankYou! ThankYou! ThankYou! ThankYou!
For sharing this. Your filming is perfect!
this makes me miss Williams even more now
8:39 Oh yeah look again Frenchy!
I loved this ride when I went to Disney in 2001!
Wow, they need to bring this back!
1:36 😂
Disney should unleash an "Interactive Film" called the Timekeeper (it will be a 360 film)
Differences -
1. It will be CGI
2. It will be extended to 30 Minutes with new sequences
3. The new sequences will have an unknown voice actor voice the Timekeeper
4. The old sequences will still have Robin Williams voice the Timekeeper
5. Nine Eye's Circlevision screens will be HD and 16:9 fullscreen
1:41 is funny
1:38 - 1:47
I'm dying in laughter.
2000年にこのショーを訪れたわー
ナインアイが大好きだったもの
Oh, wow. H.G. Wells is Scar’s voice from the Lion King.
Jeremy Irons from Dungeons and Dragons! Yatatatata....
Robin Williams just died
this is awesome, i only knew about tom orrow from innoventions. very similar animatronics
Michel piccoli ! No Gérard Depardieu and le TGV in this US movie at least the flying ça is the Renault renastela
I loved this attraction.
Is that Rhea Perlman as Nine Eye the droid that helps?
Having Robin Williams star as the Timekeeper robot, the attraction was fine for the time at which it existed, but after the September 11 attacks, it became dated since it showed New York City with the now-destroyed Twin Towers present. The Timekeeper deserved its retirement, and Disney made the right decision in retiring it.
i dont agree with that cause i miss it plus timekeeper was suppose to be mine after the attraction closed😥
i miss this show and Robin Williams
Dude, the fact they replaced this with monsters inc. is dumb, this was so well done and now we have a cheap show…
You know what would have been amazing? A crossover attraction with Timekeeper and Tom Morrow.
And S.I.R.!
is that robin williams.
Eric Dahlgren Yes. Robin Williams did the voice of the animatronic timekeeper.
We need more family style dark rides with lots more animatronic
This is far funnier coz of robin williams than the original Paris version which was slightly more serious. This was originally in Disneyland Paris in 1992 in Discoveryland and fitted perfectly with all the steampunk style and Jules Verne themed space mountain. Unfortunately they’ve changed everything to Star Wars style which doesn’t match any of the decor and this attraction is now Buzz light year Astro blast.
have photos of timekeeper?
Robin Williams sad Ending one amazing Beautiful man
I remember the lean rails. The Timekeeper was a visionary.
I remember this attraction from when I was younger. For some reason it use to scare me
this robots face was a combo of mine and robin williams and the hair too
11:51 made me laugh XD
Robin doing Jacques Cousteau😂😂😂😂
2:25 I was about 12 when Timekeeper was made, and this is the only line I remember from the entire show. I remember sweating the whole time thinking a cast member would come out and reprimand people for sitting their kids up on the rails.
This is like, the soarin' but in paris
this was callede 'le visionarium' in Disneyland Paris and was my favourite attaction as a child. I still miss it when I go back to the park!
Oh, dang, I hope somebody, somewhere has an old video of this from Paris- now THAT would be a fun project for somebody learning French!
@@GiantPetRat th-cam.com/video/iwFtNTlk768/w-d-xo.html :)
do you have photos of the french version of timekeeper?
@@christoperswinehart7504 sadly, no :( burnt in my brain though!
I hope Disney brings back this ride cuz this was my favorite ride in all of magic kingdom and when I found out it was closing for monsters Inc I was mad and also why did they put it in tomorrow land they should put it in Hollywood studios
I wish the world had gotten rid of the time keeper but I want to have monsters inc laugh floor they could have it in Stitch is great escape apparently not that many people like Stitch Great escape
Is there a pre-show intro video that's played in the lobby waiting area like they had in the Tokyo Disneyland version of this attraction?
Thank you for this.
wow time does fly its chilling to know what in 168 years from now 2189 will hold
16:41 to see 2021
There’s a nice reference to If You Had Wings 😮
My parents love that ride
What a wonderful attraction. Thanks for sharing!
Starts at 2:56.
