I like the fact that the ride ends with the skeleton cave, almost as though it brings us the implied fates of all of the pirates present during the battle that riders have just witnessed.

The order of events are odd, but there are some good ideas here: 1. The graveyard of ships at the beginning; 2. Plunging directly into the cannon fire scene; 3. The plunge and explosion at the end. Had this been preceded by the pirate shootout in the gunpowder storage it would have been brilliant.

I went to Disneyland Paris for the first time last November, honestly I really like this version over the ones in the US because of the order of events/sequence of rooms, it’s very very cool and tells a better story
@gregg59584 ай бұрын
How does this tell a better story? Can you explain it to me, because I don’t understand it. I don’t get why you see a burning jail, then much later a burning town. The jail scene just makes so much more sense to me in the original. Plus, while cute, I don’t like the talking skeleton head being used for an exit station spiel. I much prefer him above the first drop. So foreboding!

Having the skeletons at the beginning or the end? Which is better? I think that’s a subjective question. They both have pros and cons. What puts California’s ride over Paris is the ceiling (believe it or not). Hear me out: The ceiling in Paris is a series of hanging baffles that are supposed to muffle sounds from different scenes bleeding into each other. The problem is that they are very visible. Even if you’re not looking directly at them you know they’re there. This hits people at an unconscious level, taking them out of the immersive feeling of the scenes. In California, the ceiling is just a smooth surface painted matte black. It does a much better job of giving you the feeling of being outdoors. This one thing makes a BIG difference to the experience.

@EspenSGX4 ай бұрын
The version in Magic Kingdom is the "worst" version of the ride. It's not necessarily bad, but it was rapidly done because people complained there wasn't a Pirates. Originally the plan was to have the Western River complex, as a Caribbean ride in the Carribbean seemed odd (you know, like a California park in California). It was planned to have a Pirates-like Western boat ride and a mine train rollercoaster. The ideas were recycled into Big Thunder Mountain and Disneyland Paris's Frontierland, though.

Shanghai's Pirates is great, but it's a whole different ride than the original Pirates.
