Disneyland Attraction Review: Snow White's Scary Adventures

Ride: Snow White's Scary Adventures
Number of times I've ridden it: One

This dark ride and Peter Pan's Flight are the dark ride's I remember. And I don't know why.

Snow White's Scary Adventures is a dark ride in which you go through the movie Snow White. It is the most scary dark ride in Disneyland. It even made me jump when you see the witch look into the magic mirror and then when she turns she becomes the crazy grandma who gives Snow White that apple. So little kids may be scared at this one. SO BEWARE!!!

Overall Rating: 8/10

Disneyland Attraction Review: Jungle Cruise

Ride: Jungle Cruise
Number of time's I've ridden it: One

A little cheesy, but cool. Now only if this could attach to the Indiana Jones Ride that would be cool.

Jungle Cruise is where you explore the jungle in a boat. But you see alligators and piranhas and the boat breaks when the piranhas come out, and you see robots of animals and people and it's just good ol' fun. It may be just a little scary for some people. But the ride is pretty calm.

Overall Rating: 8.5/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough

Attraction: Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough
Number of times I've been in it: One

I'm still wondering if you actually go into the famous castle itself, because if you do, that would be cool.

Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough is a place where you walk through the movie "Sleeping Beauty" It's a lot like Tarzan's Treehouse. I find it to be more scarier just because there is stuff like, "Hey look at this tiny window. There's a tiny person. I need to look close up to the mirror to see what that is. I still can't see HOLY STRAWBERRY POP-TARTS IN A TOASTER MADE OUT OF OLD TELEVISION ANTENNAS!" I said that because a orge just appeared out of nowhere. Anyway, fun, fun.

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Pinocchio's Daring Journey

Ride: Pinocchio's Daring Journey
Number of time's I've ridden it: One

This one of those rides that was never important to me so I forgot a bunch of it.

Pinocchio's Daring Journey is a dark ride that I forgot what happened. Let me see a video of it and I'll probably remember.

OK, I watched a video. It's pretty cool. I would go on that ride. Oh wait, I did. I don't remember that ride at all! But it's not a roller coaster, it's just a calm ride just like every other dark ride. So yeah, you should go on it.

Overall Rating: 7/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Peter Pan's Flight

Ride: Peter Pan's Flight
Number of time's I've ridden it: Once

Peter Pan's Flight was the first ride I went at Disneyland. It's also probably my favorite dark ride.

Peter Pan's Flight is a ride where you fly with Peter Pan into space. Sounds like Space Mountain, huh? Well, there is this scene that looks a lot like Space Mountain just because you're flying through space, but it's a lot more calmer. You also go through the house and some other scenes in the movie. But that space scene looks so cool! There is some very slow dips. But it is awesome, and I thought it was a perfect introduction to Disneyland for me.

Overall Rating: 8.5/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Mr.Toad's Wild Ride

Ride: Mr.Toad's Wild Ride
Number of times I've ridden it: One

Don't worry, the ride is not wild. They just said that to see how many people like wild rides.

Mr.Toad's Wild Ride is a dark ride in which you take a ride to nowhere. It's very hard to explain what happened because I forgot most of it. I remember that there was a cool scene with of these huge speech bubbles going, "BOOM!!", "BLAM!!!" and "CRASH!" with blinking lights. So it's basically any other dark ride except a little faster.

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Matterhorn Bobsleds

Ride: Matterhorn Bobsleds
Number of times I've ridden it: One

Note: This is one of the rides I call "The Five Dancing Rides"(which I love) The reason why they are called that is because you do sharp turns and sudden drops. If you try doing it you're self, it looks like you're dancing. Just had to bring that out because otherwise if you have not read the other 4 dancing ride reviews, then this review would make no sense.

Matterhorn Bobsleds is the only dancing ride that I did once. But it's really cool and I wish I could do it again when I had the chance.

Matterhorn Bobsleds is a ride where you explore the Matterhorn mountain on a bobsled, when you some times run into a yeti. There are no big dips which is very nice. But if you are afraid of heights, you may consider not going just because you out the mountain to see a great view of Disneyland. I've also heard that if you do it at the right time, you will be right next to the Disneyland fireworks as you ride. I've never tried it, but I bet I would as scared as I was when you go right next to the fireworks on Sorain' Over California. But me and my roller coaster loving siblings loved this ride. You may not, even though it's not so intense.

Overall Rating: 10/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Mad Tea Party


Ride: Mad Tea Party
Number of times I've ridden it: One

(BARF) huh, huh... (BARF) huh... O.K., let's do the review.

Mad Tea Party is a ride where you spin around in a tea cup for a couple of minutes. And I feel sick from just spinning around in my swivel chair! I was surprised that I wasn't that sick, even when it was spinning me faster than a swivel chair. The ground also turns, so it some times looks like your about to crash to the next tea cup right next to you. So, in conclusion, if you become really sick by spinning around like crazy, then, by heavens no do you ride this. But the tea cups do make a convenient barf bag...

Overall Rating: 8/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: it's a small world


Ride: it's a small world
Number of times I've ridden it: Two

My favorite thing about it's a small world is the building itself. It just looks dang cool!

"it's a small world" is a ride where you ride around the world in a boat with the "catchy" song "It's a Small World" in a bunch of different languages. I liked the ride. Sure it's not one of my favorites, but the rooms look so cool! There's like something to see anywhere you look. I like how there are some famous Disney characters in it. There's nothing scary in this ride (unless you're scared of singing dolls). There are no drops or sharp turns. It's the perfect ride for children.

Overall Rating: 8/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Disney Princess Fantasy Faire

Show: Disney Princess Fantasy Faire
Number of times I've seen it: One

I'm a boy. You actually suspect me to do a review on this? Sure, I saw it but I didn't really pay attention. So, I'm going to let my sister review this one.

O.K... she just told me to ask my little brother Sam about it because he liked it more. Um... O.K.?

All right, here are my Sam's words. "I LIKED IT SO MUCH! I LIKE BECAUSE I LIKE TO DANCE. I'M A DANCER! 10/10!"

There you go.

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Casey Jr. Circus Train


Ride: Casey Jr. Circus Train
Number of times I've ridden it: One

This is a fun calm ride, but my only complaint is that they called me a monkey...

Casey Jr. Circus Train is a ride that's a calm simple ride in a train on the hill that you see in Storybook Land Canal Boats. And it's pretty fun. There is a moment where it actually feels like a thrill ride. Because you start going up a hill and then you go down the hill, but very slowly. I read somewhere that it was supposed to be a roller coaster, but it was to dangerous. Anyway, go on it just for fun. I don't think there could be anything scary in this.

Overall Rating: 7/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin

Ride: Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin
Number of time's I've ridden it: One

First off, let me say something about the line. IT'S FREAKING LONG! IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO END SOON BUT IT KEEPS ON GOING! GOSH! ANYWAY, ON TO THE REVEIW!

ROGER RABBIT'S ... WHOOPS, CAPS LOCK WAS ON THIS WHOLE ENTIRE TIME? I'LL FIX THAT. There, that's better. Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin is a ride where you ride in this car through the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit? It's a lot like all the other ones, like Mike & Sully for the Resuce and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. The only difference is that you have control of how much you want it to spin and you get to control how far you want to spin. That's about it. But it was not worth the hour wait.

Overall Rating 7.5/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Tarzan's Treehouse

Attraction: Tarzan's Treehouse
Number of times I've been in it: One

Tarzan's Treehouse is exactly right next to Indiana Jones Adventure. I loved Indiana Jones so much that I did not notice the treehouse. So after the 4th time I went on that ride, my dad said "Have you checked out Tarzan's Treehouse?" And then I said in my mind, "HOLY STRAWBERRY POP-TARTS IN A TOASTER MADE OUT OF OLD TELEVISION ANTENNAS! There's a Tarzan ride here! That must be new!"

Tarzan's Treehouse is a place that you walk and they have dioramas that explain to you the movie. It's a lot like Sleeping Beauty Castle Walthrough. There is a bridge that is a bit scary, but not much. The coolest part is at the end where they have all of these thing that you can make music out of.

Overall Rating: 6/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Indiana Jones Adventure

Ride: Indiana Jones Adventure: Temple of the Forbidden Eye
Number of times I've ridden it: Four

Note: This is one of the rides I call "The Five Dancing Rides"(which I love) The reason why they are called that is because you do sharp turns and sudden drops. If you try doing it you're self, it looks like you're dancing. Just had to bring that out because otherwise if you have not read the other 4 dancing ride reviews, then this review would make no sense.

The Indiana Jones Adventure is a ride where you get caught in a cave (which is part of the line. Pretty cool!) and you're trying to get out in a bumpy car. This ride is important to me because it was the first "dancing ride" I went on and it gave me my love for these type of rides. The ride is pretty scary though. Especially if you have the following fears: Snakes, Bridges, Fire, Heights, Stone Balls about to roll over you, spiders and rats, skeletons, etc. There is also an Indiana Jones robot that looks pretty cool. The actor who plays "Saul" is in the safety video. Now I don't want to tell you what happens in the ride (especially the ending) because it's so cool! If you really want to know, watch a movie on YouTube. But it's going to ruin it for you! Trust me, it's not that scary if you don't have a fear of thrill rides.

Overall Rating: 10/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Enchanted Tiki Room

Show: The Enchanted Tiki Room
Number of times I've seen it: One

Hmmm... I wonder what would happen if I put my cats in this room...

Enchanted Tiki Room is a show with robot birds and tiki idols that sing over and over "The Tiki, Tiki, Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room!" They also have some cool water fountains (kind of like a tiny World or Color) and cool special effect to make it look like it's raining outside. It's about 20 minutes and is a show that's kind of educational, but most of it is just 100 birds singing
"The Tiki, Tiki, Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room!" Otherwise, it great effects to make it look real birds.

Overall Rating: 7/10



Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Splash Mountain

Ride: Splash Mountain
Number of times I've ridden it: Two

Zip-eede-doo-dah!! Zip-eede-ahhh! My, oh, my what a... HOLY STRAWBERRY POP-TARTS IN A TOASTER MADE OUT OF OLD TELEVISION ANTENNAS!

Splash Mountain is a ride based off of Song of the South where you are in a log, a "laughing place" if you will, in the water. You travel around, do some dips, and explore around while robots sing the famous song "Zip-Ee-Doo-Dah". During that you do two drops that are as big as the drops in GRR. Then you go down a drop that's 3 seconds long! That was enough time for me to scream, "HOLY STRAWBERRY POP-TARTS IN A TOASTER MADE OUT OF OLD TELEVISION ANTENNAS! " or something along that lines. You get soaking wet, wetter than GRR. After the drop, you see the picture that they took of you (my first one is kind of embarrassing because I was in the middle of yelling "HOLY STRAWBERRY POP-TARTS IN A TOASTER MADE OUT OF OLD TELEVISION ANTENNAS!") But I liked the ride. Sure it's not a dancing ride, but it's up there in my to 10 favorite rides! However, if you hate big drops or heights, you should not ride this ride. Or else you might be screaming HOLY STRAWBERRY POP-TARTS IN A TOASTER MADE OUT OF OLD TELEVISION ANTENNAS!

Overall Rating: 9/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Pirate's Lair on Tom Sawyer Island

Attraction: Pirate's Liar
Number of times I've been in it: One

Pirate's Liar is a island in the middle of Rivers of America, and is basically a playhouse pirate themed. You have caves that you go through, swingy bridges, and pirate type things like bring treasure out of the water. In order to get to Pirate's Liar, you have to cross the Rivers of America by riding a motor powered raft. And I think I talked about everything I wanted to talk about. There's not much to talk about.

Overall Rating: 7.5/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Mark Twain Riverboat / S.S. Columbia

Ride: The Sailing Ship Columbia
Number of times I've ridden it: One

The reason I'm doing Mark Twain and Columbia in the same review is that they are the same ride, just different boats.

The Columbia is a pirate ship that you sail around Pirate's Lair and see these robots of Indians. There's also cannons that shoot out smoke, and there is a stairway that leads to a room that supposed to look like a ship in pirate times. It a pretty cool set, and it really detailed. Go do it if you're a fan of pirate boats.

Overall Rating: 8.5/10



Ride: Mark Twain Riverboat
Number of times I've ridden it: One

Not much to talk about.

The Mark Twain Riverboat is a riverboat where you sail around Pirate's Liar with Indian robots around you. I liked this ride because it had three floors (great for shade!) But it doesn't have any rooms. It's just a simple boat. Sooooooooooooooooooo, yeah...

Overall Rating: 8/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Big Thunder Mountain Railroad


Ride: Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Number of times I've ridden it: Three

Note: This is one of the rides I call "The Five Dancing Rides"(which I love) The reason why they are called that is because you do sharp turns and sudden drops. If you try doing it you're self, it looks like you're dancing. Just had to bring that out because otherwise if you have not read the other 4 dancing ride reviews, then this review would make no sense.

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is a "dancing ride" where you're in this train riding fast down a mountain, and of course, it's a dancing ride, so I loved it. Even though I found it to have almost identical tracks to the Matterhorn Bobsleds, I liked it more. Probably because it has a really cool cave that you go through. There's not much to talk about it more than it's a dancing ride, and that if you like dancing rides than you have to go to this ride. This is also one of the 3 dancing rides that has bags to keep your loose items. Yeah, that's it. GO RIDE IT!

Overall Rating: 10/10

Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Pirates of the Caribbean

Ride: Pirates of the Caribbean
Number of times I've ridden it: At least three

Pirates of the Caribbean, like Haunted Mansion, was the ride that we did when we had nothing else to do. Besides, it's a fun one to do over and over and over and...

Pirates of the Caribbean is a classic ride where you explore in a boat what pirates do. It also has newly added Jack Sparrow in the ride, because the movie was based of the ride. It quite a cool ride. The first part you go into this room that looks like it's night time and you're outside. Another cool thing is that there is a real restaurant in that room. Then you drop down a small diagonal waterfall. And if you know me, I love drops. And you go into this pretty cool cave with awesome lighting. Then you go down another waterfall (that's it). Then you explore the awesome display of pirates! I won't tell you all of it because it's pretty awesome and you should check it out yourself!
