Disneyland's Pirates of the Caribbean | 1967 & 2022 SIDE BY SIDE (The Original & the NEW!)

Both versions of Pirates of the Caribbean together Side By Side, the original 1967 version of the ride and a recent 2022 ridethrough! You can notice the differences but perhaps more often the similarities between the 2 versions now 55 years apart in time!
We had to slow down or speed up the 2022 version to make everything fit with the original, but its so fun to compare the two! We have both audio tracks and switch back and forth notating which one you are listening too at any given moment.
It's the Pirate's life for us, mateys! We love this ride!
We are not monetizing this as it has so much original soundtrack! BUT, you can support us by subscribing to the channel! Thanks so much!

Fascinating comparison! And seeing how the guests dressed, styled their hair, and occasionally used camcorders, is very interesting, too! Still the classic attraction.

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

Yes the period casual formal wear is awesome. The logo t shirt is king in todays Disneyland! lol

[@thebugbouncer]

I took this ride in the late 80's! Old school always wins! Cool video.

[@lyndathornton2231]

Thank you so much, for sharing the comparisons! I was a child in the 1970's, so I've been on the original ride. Seeing the comparisons, it makes me appreciate and miss, the way the ride was originally set.

[@whosoever9198]

So cool! Was there in 1967 and 2022! I hope these people got a second ride as they probably rode with bright lights on.

[@colliric]

The 1967 footage is the ride running with the lights all turned on just for the film-based camera.

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

I love how dressed up they all are.

[@sarawilliams9904]

This is fantastic!!!! Love love love it. It is especially cool to see some things from 1967 are still there. While I appreciate the new additions over the years, I must admit it was pretty great in 1967!!!!

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

Quite true! Very impressive!

[@Geologist_Mike]

With the exception of the last scene, I think the original version was better. The dialogue was about pirates being the real bad guys they were, so it was a little bit more scary. It just needed the more modern colored lighting.

[@wumpus976]

I actually think I prefer the original lighting, at least in some scenes. Take the skeleton cave, for example. The bright lights make everything look sun-bleached and faded, as if light has penetrated through the cave and has been cast onto the skeletons. I just think it’s a lot eerier.

[@TylerReeves]

@@wumpus976 The lighting has undoubtably changed since opening, but I wouldn't totally trust either of these videos to be accurate representations of how they looked in person. For one, the '67 recording required they use a very different and much brighter lighting set up to capture it on film (essentially they just turned the work lights on haha). And even in the modern recording, the way the camera/export captures brightness, contrast, and saturation is very different from our eyes and brain-imo its much less garish in person.

[@wumpus976]

@@TylerReeves that’s very true. There’s a deceptive quality that comes with video, and I know that after I went to Disney World myself (it’s not the version shown in this video, but I think it’s still a similar comparison.) In my opinion, a lot of the rides at Disney look a lot cheaper in person. You can more clearly see where parts are airbrushed, or where corners of the room meet. That’s not to discredit all the effort put into them, but it’s something that I thought after going on a lot of the rides.

[@almendraman]

The lighting you see in the promotional footage isn't accurate. They lit it up so they could capture everything for TV

[@NorCalTravelBug]

Thank you for this historical gift!

[@waxifari5528]

Its getting old spending a day a Disneyland pointing to bits of each attraction and saying to the kids "it used to do _________ here". In the case of pirates its the shifting of the false ceiling (now motionless) just after the jail scene where the creaking track is playing (thats why there is a creaking sound track there in the first place - you wouldn't even know it today). They also used to blow heat at you there too. So many dead effects it feels disrespectful to the piece of art and legacy.

[@SirBuzz]

Thanks for sharing those little details. Disney of today doesn't care about keeping this ride true to it original form. They seem to care more about synergy and that censorship is up to DEI standards.

[@Chan.711]

Great video, I like the older songs and interesting to see the changes with the wenches lol, and the faces of excitement. Too cool to see how it's the same after all these years. Thx again

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

Thanks so much for watching and commenting- much appreciated!

[@jetsons101]

Great side by side. The inside Q was always a good "tease" for the ride to come. Funny thing, after getting off the ride when I was a kid my mom would talk about not drinking alcohol - - - to this day I don't drink thanks to Pirates of the Caribbean. Thanks to Disneyland Beat for this fun side by side watch......

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

Walt’s temperance teachings worked!

[@jetsons101]

@@TheDisneylandBeat Yes, till this very day....

[@jasonmdt]

This needs to have way more views.

[@kimh2338]

This was awesome thank you! I am going to Disneyland for our anniversary in December. We have been watching your videos you guys are awesome!

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

Thanks so much!!! We are excited for your trip!

[@albiep2711]

This is great! I'd love to see more side by side videos (Peter Pan's Flight, Sleeping Beauty Walk Through, Jungle Cruise, Haunted Mansion, Small World, etc.) Thanks for the video!

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

More to come! Thanks so much!

[@user-wi2ns5tf3y]

A Pirates Life For All!

[@michaeltaylor1603]

6:33 "rumbling turntable" LOL! Still one of my favorite rides from when I was a little kid. The ride is actually about a month older than me. You see something different every time you ride it. Nice side by side. The Blue Bayou is a MUST If you have time for lunch or dinner. Love the wearing of suits ties back then.

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

Same age as Pirates. Very nice!!! Yes, I still see something new each time!

[@SirBuzz]

Old Bill and his cats weren't used in the original 1967 Disneyland version. I believe they installed him in Disneyland around the time Disney World's POTC opened which had him from the very beginning.

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

Thank you! Very interesting!

[@randomMSMtuber]

the fact that they used real human skeletons is kinda freaky

[@MrJimmy527]

My Seven Favorite Species of the Air Pirates: Wolves (Don Karnage and Ratchet), Weasel (Mad Dog), Great Dane (Dumptruck), American Bully (Gibber) and Lynxes (First Air Pirate Lynx with His Gold Jacket, His Dark Green Shirt and His Blue Scarf in Plunder and Lightning, Parts 3 and 4, Stuck on You and the Ransom of Red Chimp and Second Air Pirate Lynx with His Orange Jacket, His Tiffany Blue Shirt and His Green Cap in Plunder and Lightning, Part 3 and Bygones)

[@TheElvisJamboree]

5:28 Half want The Redhead, the other half want The Rum. I say let them have both... & bring out the Larboard side!

[@prissymissliesl]

That's is so cool. I love the side by side videos and this is one of the greatest ❤️

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

Thanks! Excited how it turned out!

[@MrDanesorensen]

Its prettier now, but its really a shame how they robbed it of character. Way less drinking / drunkenness, got rid of the bride sale, the men dont chase the women anymore, etc. The story feels hobbled together now since the theme of getting too drunk and losing control of their assault on the town is gone. They didnt bother to replace it with any new charm, just too mild to mean much.

[@idk-zt8rx]

The cast members attending to the attraction were even dressed as pirates back then

[@swankydog]

I remember and much prefer the non-PC older version.

[@lorenajones3729]

Loved the side by side, yesterday and today!! Got any more?

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

More coming!!!

[@p.taylor981]

5:19 I have never seen this animatronic on the ride before, specifically the one in the back. Was he removed? Because I can't find any information on it

[@blazerhawkdarren68]

Very nice. The animatronics back then were wonderful and they did a great job of keeping them working throughout the years. And of course they had to improve on Jack Sparrow after the movies were released. The 'Jack Sparrow' hiding in the barrel actually looked like a girl 🤣

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

lol quite so!

[@idk-zt8rx]

Jack Sparrow wasn't in the attraction when it first opened. He was only added into the attraction after the movies came out. The prop you're talking about is actually a girl hiding in a barrel lmao

[@seansmith6255]

Where did you get the left video

[@TheDisneylandBeat]

It’s from a filmed 1967 Disneyland tv special I have on dvd!

[@pigeonplumtree3]

[@davidmacias741]

The original will always be better then the new politically correct version! Just doesn't have the same magic.

[@p.taylor981]

They rides are almost identical the only major difference is the auction scene

[@conversa2rs]

Ok ima call this out. I'm a 1992 kid and I wish they didn't change some things because some pple are just to soft. But anywho now they wanna take jack out of the ride "due to" no I'm over this. Either pple need to grow a pair or just get out n leave it as is 👍

[@em.5941]

it’s a ride, get over it. or don’t get on. complaining won’t fix anything

[@davidhalcon5594]

Gimme the old version any day! Sorry, but the “Red Head” needs to be auctioned off!, not be an auctioneer. PC ruins this kind of stuff. Over all the ride is still great. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! That goes double for Splash Mountain! Leave the classics alone!

[@SirBuzz]

Disney literally hires DEI representatives to "reevaluate" rides for problematic scenerios. This is how pathetic Disney has become.

[@jeffreychester8740]

Awful job syncing the rides.

[@thebugbouncer]

Haha shut up already
