04:23 - I have never EEEVER heard the work "skeletal" pronounced this way
we all have a skaleeeton.
Not to mention pay-co instead of pah-co. 4:30
One difference worth mentionning is that the Tokyo version has a single rider line! With that, I rode it three times when I went. It's really fun and thrilling!
The anaheim version used to have single rider but it never returned after coronavirus
@@brianna_lynchits been back.... U just need to ask for a.pass... And go in through the exit.
When did you go?
@@Darth_Civics 10 years ago hehe
Yeah we did single rider too and I did photo bomb every time. 😂
The "smoke ring" that gets blown in your face is lit to look like flames, and it's one of the cooler effects I've seen. Not expecting it at all, the ride stops, and then the skull shouts something angry (presumably in Japanese?) and then a huge fireball is coming right at your face and by the time you realize it's *not* actually fire, it's already hit you. I really nice little surprise effect that I wish imagineering would steal for other rides.
DisneySea is the best. Highly recommend it to anyone who is ever in Tokyo. It really is the best Disney park in the world. Don't skip the Chandu Tail, the black pepper popcorn, or the frozen beer!
Thank you for coming to Japan!The scene where a skeleton raises the anger, and a huge fireball comes to is called "a rude fellow" in Japanese
This is the only version I experienced. The opening is beautiful. They add water elements on the entering room with starry sky above. It’s a peaceful atmosphere until the crystal skull screams. And the queue has a lot of decoration space. The line is just a Z shape in a large room. Hearing the hollow echoes in the temple and bones lying on the bottom of the queue. If you don’t look, you’ll miss it.
Just went on this version a week ago and it was really nice to have all of the effects working that are usually broken in Anaheim.
One of my favorite rides! Yes I experienced the TDS version in fact it’s the only one I experienced. Planning on going to Disneyland early next year so will be excited to see the differences between the two.
The only downside i can think of is the responsiveness of the air pistons. Air can compress and expand, unlike hydraulic fluid. The air pistons still make the ride great, but it has a cushier feel with less abrupt jolts and slower response than the hydraulic rams. Not a deal breaker, but definitely noticeable, as for anything replacing hydraulic systems, such as LIMs replacing hydraulic motors on launched rollercoasters
Got to ride the DisneySea version the other week during my first trip to Japan. The queue had a lot of my love (though not having Sallah talking about Rough And Rugged Terrain was missed) and it was immediately apparent what things just worked BETTER but aside from the differences in maintenance quality I feel like Indy is the one ride that most holds up equally across both parks.
Edit to clarify: everything at Tokyo Disney is at this level; I think our American Indy is the one that gets closest to that Tokyo Disney quality level.
Well the Anaheim ride is now better than this cause it got updated, minus the lack of fog.
Fire is gone as of the recent refurb at Disneyland, so they’re more similar now than ever. There’s still laser shots from the eye, but there’s a fog cannon and backlight now.
The DisneySea version was really fun.
The best version was the early year versions of the Cali Indiana Jones ride, back when the randomized rooms were functional and everything else was working (esp. the icemaker fall and the Cobra's venom squirter that usually wet the middle row). But after they shut off some of those features, the Tokyo Indiana Jones ride comes out on top more for the maintained quality of the effects and physical details (esp. the vortex). The only issue I had with the Tokyo version was the occasional desync between audio and ride.
They gave us the translation cards too
@@reyjusuf I remember being so annoyed after spending all that time translating the walls on the California version it turned out to be an advertisement for AT&T (I think that was the company). This was back when it first opened, don't know if they ever re-painted/re-published alternate translations. Reminds me of the "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine" bit from The Christmas Story.
Wait I gotta know this ride was named crystal skull before they came up with the crystal skull movie???
Just rode this last month and absolutely loved it and the rest of the park! Only sad thing was the heavy construction on the main mountain which kind of destroyed the immersion
Disneysea one is great. But Disneyland’s is much better IF/WHEN all the effects are working. Especially the boulder room.
I was looking for someone in the comments who had rode both versions! In the next 5 years, my wife and I are committed to going to TDR. When I was watching the video, I thought, I think I like DLR's version better! (With your caveat that everything in DLR is working! Lol!)
@@jrios29 I went to DIsneySea in 2019. Tokyo's version is much more reliable. No shutting down the ride every other hour. The boulder room works consistently.
But in terms of the physical set, I like Disneyland's version much much better. The tiny crystal skull is nothing compared to Mara's giant face.
I've been on both versions. The Tokyo Version is much better. It features 3 dimensional sets and all working effects verses painted flats and broken effects.
Yes and that's almost never, getting a 100% working ride. That's why Disneysea is better.
Agreed. Don’t get me wrong, I love DisneySEA’s version too, but it didn’t have the same excitement I had compared to Disneyland. Nostalgia may also be a contributing factor.
I did have more fun on Raging Spirits next door though. Really great at night when you can barely see the track.
DisneySEA has some other great rides that I wouldn’t be disappointed if I didn’t have a chance to go on Indy before the day ends.
I've enjoyed the DisneySea version a bunch. When I last visited, the park was pretty sparse, so I got to go back and re-ride it again with no wait. I've actually never ridden the California version, so I can't directly compare, but I had a great time with the Crystal Skull version.
Loved TDS version! A kid on our car was genuinely terrified and screaming.
I was lucky enough to go to the park during my school's trip to Japan for spring break, abd we managed to get on this ride. I loved the que and change to the story, gave me the idea of how Disneylands Temple Of The Forbidden Eye could be improved
I heard the original is in quite a bad shape with lots of effects broken.
Rode this one twice and I loved it, mainly because it's just well maintained and stuff just works.
Original just had a massive refurb. Was on it a couple months back and it looks fantastic.
I rode the version in DisneySea about a month ago and absolutely loved it 🤩.
Now I have not ridden the version in California, but I would still say that the version in DisneySea, truly is, an amazing ride and one of the best in the park!
I’ll be on this version next summer.
The Tokyo version is better simply because they maintain it.
That can be said about pretty much every Japanese vs American theme park. I live in Tokyo and when I visit the American parks it seems like half the animatronics/ effects are broken at this point
THIS
Yes! Almost every time I want to ride Indy in CA, it’s broken! I rode the Tokyo one once and just with everything working, it’s far superior!
Hey, look! A successful park with mostly original ideas!! How crazy! I recall hearing that the Soarin’ attraction that recently opened had a super long line a few years back! (I forget if it was pre-Covid, or after).
I rode it last month, it was our favorite ride at the park - I think we did it 4 times! I brought some newbies who had never been to a Disney park and they were blown away… they assumed it would be something like the Peppa Pig themed park 😂
Personally I love the Tokyo version. Having ridden the original in its hayday when it still had all the traps active and the massive line was entirely out of control, This version was better in just about every way. At no time does it feel like it has elements half done. The only missing step is having Sallah do the video. Other than that, most everything at Tokyo Disney has a bit on Disneyland/World. Only thing that it doesn't have is their tower of terror. It has a neat story, and its very lovingly cared for. But the ride is slow, short and not thrilling.
The attraction was created before Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. In fact, the idea of a crystal skull was first introduced in Max McCoy's novel Indiana Jones and the Philosopher's Stone, which begins with Indy entering a Mayan pyramid in search of the crystal skull.
When they had annual passes for sale I bought the two park pass so I could ride this ride. It’s a gem!
Oh how I want to experience this ride
I’ve been to both and they’re amazing
Tokyo Disneyland has changed so much since the early 80’s. I have not been there since !
tbh, the peter pan ride, frozen ride, and the tangled ride are gonna be so high on effort/quality that puts almost all dark rides on the us disney parks to shame (unless if its the best of the best)
I have not ridden the Tokyo sea version, but I will say this there is something to be said about the red and orange hues and a giant fireball bellowing up as you shoot past on a rickety bridge, set against thrilling music from Indiana Jones
Having been on both the only issue I found with the Disney sea version is that the sound and music cues are way off and make no sense. There are entire scenes without music. The snake lunge sound cue is in a completely different area of the ride. It should have been a direct music transfer as well.
Feathered serpent huh.
Awesome. Needs more feathers Lol..
Disneyland Paris obviously has the absolute best version of the Indiana Jones darkride!
A grass field.
🥲
Went on the Indiana ride when it opened. One of the best rides if not the best ever.
I have!
It's much too bright, and you are right about the color scheme.. is just not the same as Anaheim's (which I would have loved to ride as soon as it was opened).
I was there last week and it seemed a bit different to this video, I don't remember a vortex and definitely no on ride photo that I could see
I don't know why, but Tokyo Disneyresort has stopped taking ride photo since the COVID-19 infection expansion in 2020
Do the history on Haunted Mountain Holiday Nightmare at Tokyo next
I miss well thought out theme rides. Now everything feels like half baked screen rise or just Coasters.
And way too many dark rides that just get your through the story of whatever film they're about (look at you, Little Mermaid ride).
I went to DL for the first time earlier this year only a week before Indy reopened from its refurb, and I'm still bummed that I've never gotten to ride any version. I hope I'll get to visit TDS's.
8:53 beware of the 🐍!
me before watching this video: this version of indiana jones adventure isn't much different from the original version, with the forbidden eye replaced with the crystal skull from the fourth indiana jones movie
me after watching it: oh; so it is quite more different
Hopefully the future version at Animal Kingdom will take its lessons from this one!
Lord that temple theming
Love the contents lately.
can you share why is there a “panasonic” below the signage at 5”. are the brand paying for rides . thanks . nice vid btw
Lots of Disney rides are sponsored.
For example
Splash Mountain:
Kao (soap, detergent, etc.)
Space Mountain:
Coca-Cola Japan
Toontown:
Kodansha (publishing)
Soaring:
Shinryo Reinetsu (facility construction)
You can see the track for the giant ball on this one 😄
It was probably the camera, because there was heavy smoke in the boulder scene when I went about 2 weeks ago. That doesn't mean there were no faulty effects though. The light for the tornado wasn't turned on
I feel like Tokyo Disney is... a lot better. When they open a new ride, it's Beauty and the Beast. And it's stunning. When they make the same ride Disneyland or Disneyworld has, they do it much better. What gives?
It was surreal to have Indy speak at the end and not be Harrison Ford,and be in Japanese.
What was that about differences?
I never heard 'skeletal' pronounced like that before lol
cool video
‘Ske-leet-o” remains….ahhh,love TH-cam.
7 years before the movie. So, can we blame the ride for the movie?
I just realized last time I was at Disneyland was 1995.
I’ve been on that I was on the side of the cart it was so scary
I know for an absolute fact that buying mechanical spare parts for this attraction can be quite a challenge…
Well I’ve never heard ‘skeletal’ pronounced like that before 😂
Look out, skeleetons!
Do they have the old revolving door thing at the start that was cut from Cali's version?
No the chamber only has 1 door, directly in front of you, with pools of water either side.
No they never did, probably because they saw how unreliable it was in California. They do have this cool double mirror trick to make it looks like there is an ever expending complex on either side and water on both side of the path.
If only this existed in paris. That coaster is tiny and rough
Is this like an off road vehicle type ride at Temple of the Forbidden Eye or something else?
Yep exact same ride vehicle as Disneyland!
It’s not that unique, I mean it’s basically a near clone of the one in California
Temple of the forbidden eye is not based in Asia, it is in India.
India is in asia
Does it have drops that make your stomach feel sick?
That's so weird that the film years later would have an almost identical name and theme
"Skaleetal"-?!? Do you mean...*skeletal*-?!?
Indiana Jones Adventure cost well over $100 million in 1994.
Having ridden both the Anaheim and the Tokyo. Erosions, I must say that the Tokyo version is slightly better. I disagree with the OP in that the Tokyo isn’t as exciting. In many ways I feel that the Tokyo version is a bit more refined, with the colors and overall ambience a bit better thought out.
A feathered serpent without feathers?
Skel-lee-tall
low key everyone with a hat looks like short round
At the core they’re exactly the same…
at disney sea this is one of the best rides they have -- unfortunately most of the other rides seem to be smaller version... they also went for more immersive walkaround attractions to fill the space rather than actual rides. They claim to have 30 attractions but in that list are things like ariels playground, the venice boats, the railroad etc. If they had some bigger rides it would be awesome. They also need bigger restaurant spaces as there's never enough space. They also need more disney theming -- it was built by the oriental land company, hence the mascot Duffy, but to me this is why it feels more like a generic themepark with some disney rides.
The one in Disneyland original is terrible now. Nothing works on it, so I completely disagree with your take that this is an inferior version. Maybe at launch, and I went on it opening month, but it's hard to remember so long ago.
Now, tokyo disneysea version is x100000 better. It's not close. I was on it in 2019 and the og one this year. The non black/empty rooms really help it too.
*PromoSM*
Don’t like the California version not constructed props just painted flat walls . Japans version much better.
outside is cool, ride itself is lame
Unpopular opinion: Tokyo Disney sea is overrated
I'd disagree with you, yeah. Obviously it is not really themed overtly on Disney, but I don't think the main theme is even the "Sea", despite that being integral to Japan. The real theme is the outside world before the Meiji Restoration, with a pulp and steampunk flavour, which is why Jules Verne and Indiana Jones suit it so well. This period is of particular significance to the Japanese I think. The cohesion is unmatched really, to give a singular experience. I also think the Soarin' version is the epitome of Walt's think it, create it, make it philosophy. The Cali version preshow is about the development of mechanical flight whereas Disneysea's is about the human dream of flight since the ancients. Its preshow adds the most to any ride in my experience. I was genuinely moved by the end. But to each their own
@@ajdz1840 thanks for being respectful because not a lot of people are with me. For me Tokyo Disney sea it just doesn’t make me feel like I’m in Disney and makes me feel like I’m in a fancy town in Italy instead. But I do respect your opinion
@@jackdr20roblox29 I do understand your preference. If someone asked me if I would recommend TDS I would give them your perspective as it is quite an atypical park
@@ajdz1840 thanks for understanding. The main park Tokyo Disneyland doesn’t look that bad though!
@@jackdr20roblox29 you might like it better once Fantasy Spring opens.
the original sucks. sorry but it's like a generic carnival ride. if i ever ride the tokyo one my opinion might change.
Looks really crappy
Indiana jones ride is outdated either way
It just had a huge refurb. I was just on it and it was working perfectly. I'm convinced it's one of the best attractions Disney has ever made.
@@aaronsarchive82 the ride is boring
