I’m sure everyone has now seen craploads of pictures of this place by now, but get ready for craploads more and loads of pesky words as well. I’m going to get this report in while I’m sitting around at work with nothing to do and before Sneaky Peep gets around to it since he managed to get there a week or so before I did. I promise that nothing will be described as “random” or “casual” because none of it is.
My original intention with this place was to hold off for a bit, but I figured that the crowds are unlikely to calm down anytime soon, if at all, so decided to get it done this weekend. Friday was a public holiday here in Hong Kong, but not in Mainland China, so it seemed like a good idea to try it, flying up to Shanghai on the Thursday evening. I gave myself the Saturday, too, but managed to get almost everything done on that first day.
I’d only recently “done” Shanghai, so this was all just about Disney and there was no need to really go into the city. I’d originally thought to stay on site, but I got 3 nights in a four-star hotel halfway between the park and the airport for less than one night at the “cheap” Toy Story Hotel, which I didn’t fancy much anyway. The decent hotel was pretty ridiculous really.
Anyway, the park opens at 8am, and I got there right at opening, taking about 15 minutes to get in after a bag check and ticket gates.
There’s no Main Street USA here. Instead, there’s Mickey Avenue. It’s really short and leads to a massive semi-open area in front of the castle.
Contrary to popular belief, it's not Chinese "culture" to pop a squat and s**t willy-nilly, and people don't spend every free second not sh**ting everywhere to vandalise stuff, so it doesn't actually look like the final day at Glastonbury.
I headed straight into Adventure Isle to get a fastpass for Soaring, with a “g”, knowing that it would have horrible queues like the others and that I wouldn’t like it enough to wait for it. People are onto this already, and there was a queue for the fastpasses which only took about 5 minutes since there are loads of machines and plenty of staff around. I got a return time of 5:30pm. This was a little after 8 in the morning, so the fastpasses would have been totally gone very shortly after.
A note on the fastpasses if anyone’s interested. The machines aren’t situated at each individual ride, but have a bigger area in each land that has the rides with fastpasses available: Adventure Isle for Soaring and the Rapids, Tomorrowland for Tron and Buzz Lightyear, and Fantasyland (two locations) for Peter Pan, Winnie the Pooh and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. You scan your ticket and select the ride you want. It sounds a bit of a faff, but is actually very good.
My plan was to then single rider the rapids, but they weren’t using the single rider queue. They never used it for the whole two days I was there which was annoying. I’ll moan about that a bit later, but I ended up doing the rapids on the second day since the queue was already at 90 minutes by that point and never dropped below that for the rest of the day, usually hovering around the 2 hour mark.
The park was busy, but not too bad at all. Soaring and the Rapids had 90-minute minimum waits all day, but I didn’t see anything else get above around an hour, with most things hovering around the 30 minute mark for most of the day. The app is very good at keeping waiting times updated, as well as “temporarily closed” notices, which were frequent and across a lot of rides, though never for too long.
Anyway, I moved around to Treasure Cove, but Pirates of the Caribbean hadn’t opened yet. The area is fab though.
I moved into Fantasyland to get Seven Dwarfs done while I waited for Pirates. This also had a single rider queue, but it wasn’t yet open, so I joined the regular queue. It was only 20 minutes at this point, so no biggie. Annoyingly, by the time I got on it, I ended up sitting next to some American woman who’d just walked up the recently opened single rider line. Bitch.
It’s exactly the same as the Orlando version, except that the music is sung in Mandarin in the indoor section. I like this coaster though. I’d have preferred to see a Big Thunder Mountain or equivalent, sure, but it’s a solid family ride. I did a quick walk-on reride through the single rider queue.
Pirates was open by this point. They have a single rider here, too, but the main queue was only at 15 minutes (actually more like 10), so I did that to get the “full experience”.
Queueline pictures are a bit blurry. Soz.
I’d purposefully avoided watching any videos, which was REALLY hard considering all the comments I was seeing about it, but I’m so glad I did. It’s an absolutely amazing ride and 100% immersive. On most (all?) other dark rides you can break the illusion by looking up and seeing black ceilings, air-conditioning ducts, lighting rigs etc., but not on this. Well, you could maybe spot edges/tops of screens if you really tried, but other than that, no. Even the ceilings are projected onto; the “underwater” sections are stunning, a perfect combination of physical sets, lighting and projection. The “battle” section is probably the most impressive scene of any dark ride I’ve been on; it’s f**king massive, or at least gives that impression.
I did another single rider walk-on here and then moved on to the castle, coming back to Pirates at the end of the day.
There’s a walkthrough here which I had no idea existed, Once Upon a Time Adventure.
It’s basically Snow White. You go through in small groups to various scenes, following some sparkly “magic” s**t that’s projected onto the walls and guides you from scene to scene.
It starts with this book, behind an invisible glass screen, which comes to life and is very cool.
Then it’s up some stairs with various princess sculptures.
The magic mirror has some stuff on it and then opens up for you to walk through.
The other scenes are also all screen-based, but kind of 3D. I’m guessing it maybe uses the same technology as those Nintendo 3DS things, only much better quality obviously, as there are no glasses involved, but there are very clear “layers” between various parts of the scenes.
At the exit, you can look through the castle windows. It gives you an idea of how big the area in front of the castle is.
Some more Fantasyland stuff.
By this point I was good to pick up another fastpass. Peter Pan and Winnie the Pooh had the same waiting time – about 30 minutes – so I picked up a fastpass for Pan and did the regular queue for Pooh.
It’s exactly the same as the Hong Kong and Orlando versions (I think there’s a slight difference with California’s, but there’s not much in it. I was hoping for at least some improved effects or something, but it’s literally the exact same. Well, apart from being in Chinese where the others are in English. Meh.
Have some more Seven Dwarfs since the photos are uploaded in this order and I can’t be f**ked to scroll back:
This Frozen Singalong thing was going to be left until the second day, if I was going to bother at all, but it was about to start as I was passing, I had a bit of time until the Peter Pan fastpass could be used and I was making good time with everything so far anyway.
It’s gash. Hong Kong had basically the same thing as a temporary show in the summer, but they’ve made it permanent here, thrown a few extra dancers and an extra song or two in, and built a massive theatre for it.
The “singing” is all mimed - the actors are just miked-up for the spoken bits – and it’s understandably all in Chinese. There’s some decent projection on the walls of the theatre though I guess.
Obviously, this bint shows up at the end and there’s a bit of fake snow on the audience:
S**te.
Back to the boat ride later:
Peter Pan then.
It’s better than the others, but only in that it feels more modern and with updated effects and scenery; it’s essentially the same thing. Meh.
The 1st parade – they do the same one twice during the day – was just finishing in that area, so I just cut across to the end of the parade route to catch the whole thing as it moved around. It was much quieter watching it in that area anyway.
It was alright. It was just nice to be able to watch it without trying to avoid eye-contact with people I’ve shagged like during the Hong Kong one.
The Mulan float was the best, with fire effects and s**t.
The final float is a massive anticlimax though. They should probably switch this and finish with Mulan to be honest.
I passed back through Adventure Isle to see if they’d opened the single rider on Roaring Rapids. They hadn’t, and I was told that they wouldn’t.
The Tarzan show was about to start though – they actually run their shows about 7-8 times a day, which is excellent – so I popped into that.
I didn’t take any pictures during the show. I thought I’d just watch it this time, and probably go again on the second day for pictures, but I ended up not bothering.
It was pretty good, but didn’t do much for me. The stage/set is impressive, but it’s basically just a circus show dressed up with a Tarzan theme. I was kind of expecting a live musical thing, but it’s not. Honestly, take away the theme, and you can see the same kind of tricks at a lot of local Chinese parks, with some (Fantawild for example) going even more all-out with the production values.
It’s good, it really is, but I’ve just seen it with different - and sometimes better - dressing a hundred times before.
Onto Tomorrowland:
I picked up a fastpass for TRON, even though it has a single rider queue. Single rider was being posted at 45-minutes (70 minutes regular queue), so I figured I’d still do that, but use the fastpass for a reride later.
I didn’t bother with the orbiter thing. It was different from the others in that it has suspended seating, but that’s it. Through construction/rumour topics, I’d thought that the seats could be tilted into a flying position, but looking at it, that’s either not the case, or that function, if it exists, was f**ked, since nobody was doing it.
There’s some crappy show where they pull kids up to dance on stage. The same stage has a DJ and lasers and stuff after it gets dark.
Buzz Lightyear, which I took basically no pictures of, was the best version of the lot.
The targets are just a lot better, both visually and in terms of responsiveness, as is the scoring panel in the car. Getting a higher score is less “secret” than the others too (I never tell friends in Hong Kong about that and invariably kick their arse every time) in that he targets are different sizes. It’s common sense that the smaller targets will give higher scores. It seemed a bit shorter than the others though, but that might just be me.
TRON then. I used the single rider, which actually only took about 20 minutes.
It’s excellent as an overall package. The launch feels more forceful than the other Vekoma Moto-Coasters, and it’s a lot smoother overall. It’s by far the longest and tallest of the bunch, and also the fastest. There’s a duel loading station and 7 trains as well. The others are crap with their throughputs, but this one doesn’t have an issue. Trains were being launched every 20-30 seconds.
Thinking about it, I think the launch here is magnetic as opposed to the hydraulic launches on the others, which would allow for quicker dispatches I guess.
As a coaster, it’s nothing fantastic, but the launch is very good and the lighting and effects in the indoor section make it something pretty special really.
I’d walked past Voyage to the Crystal Grotto a couple of times, but decided to leave it for a bit since the queues seemed to stay at a steady 20-30 minutes all day, so there was no sense of urgency.
I’d seen pictures, but no video, so was pleased to see that it’s not just a bunch of static scenes. Each scene is basically its own water show which is synched with the onboard audio of the boat.
The Tangled scene was f**ked though. Nothing happened.
It’s always good to experience some real Chinese culture on these trips.
The actual Crystal Grotto at the end is cool, but I didn’t/couldn’t get decent pictures. It’s basically a cave with very cool lighting and projection effects right at the end of the ride.
Just going to do a bit of a photo dump here:
Eye of the Storm is a major show in the Pirates area. Annoyingly, it was delayed by close to half an hour, but I stuck it out anyway.
There’s long, tedious preshow in the theatre lobby.
The building is amazing though. The whole set up is of a Victorian (?) theatre, with the premise that the “actors” are going to be putting on a crappy play. At least I think that was the premise. The whole style certainly suggested that anyway.
Then Chinese Jack Sparrow interrupts by flying in over the audience, followed soon after by some bad guy, speaking Chinese in a “posh English” accent. Weird.
The bad guy orders cannons, which appear through the sides of the auditorium to blow s**t up. The whole place fills with smoke and lighting effects, and when it’s cleared the stage looks like this:
The final section is a very good stunt show, including an amazing scene using hidden giant fans in the floor – those things you get at indoor skydiving places – with Jack Sparrow and the bad guy having an aerial fight with no wires/harnesses. All very clever.
My fastpass for Soaring was ready by that point,
The queueline was the best bit.
I’m not a fan of the original, and likely would’ve skipped this if it was a copy and paste, but it’s a different film. It’s world-focused rather than just USA, and the projection system seemed a lot better/clearer, but it’s still the same thing: gash basically. They’ve kind of f**ked up here as well I think. Parts of the film have very tall, straight landmarks – the Eiffel Tower and Shanghai skyscrapers for example – but these are on a curved screen, so they’re totally bent. It’s not just a slight curve either. I guess it may depend on where you’re sitting, but it seems like a massive oversight to me.
Anyway, just as with the others, I f**king hated it. It just seems like such a pointless addition when soooooooooo many Chinese parks have similar rides now, even if the quality varies dramatically between them.
The Alice in Wonderland Maze was a nice 10-minute distraction and had no queue. I wouldn’t have waited for it.
There’s some cool stuff hidden in the rockwork though, like clocks and the Cheshire cat’s smile.
I REALLY wish they’d used the animated version though since the Burton version is f**kin w**k. Helena Bonham Carter is the only redeeming feature.
I didn’t do the “teacups” ride, but liked that they’d gone for an original theme on them.
I headed back over to TRON to use my fastpass from earlier.
The whole area looks so much better at night.
I got a decent spot for the fireworks, but it got very crowded and pushy-shovey quite quickly, so I f**ked that off after calling out some rude Korean c**ts and moved off to the side slightly, getting up to a railing next to the water so nobody could get in front again.
It was a good enough view anyway. The show was excellent. It’s a mix of projection mapping and laser work, with some amazing laser effects like lightning striking and running down the whole building. It’s kind of lacking a bit in fireworks though.
The show finished a little before 9 and most people headed out then, but the park was still open until 10, so I had a bit of a wander around.
Pirates was a walk on at this point, so I did two quick rides.
Reflections in water are artistic. See.
I was back the next day as well, so I’ll post overall thoughts on the place when I post that bit in later.
