outbackjack Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 We are planning our first ever trip to DL this September. We are so excited to see the original park. Anyway, after studying the maps, I became concerned regarding Monsters Inc. While it is mentioned in Attractions on the main page, when you click on the DCA map it doesn't have a thumbtack. It also isn't listed on the left side "attractions" which appears to list them all. Is this just a typo or has something happened? Here is the map.... http://disneyland.disney.go.com/maps/#/m=disneys-california-adventure Thanks in advance, Outback
outbackjack Posted July 23, 2011 Author Posted July 23, 2011 SOOOOOOOO glad to hear that!!!! I absolutely love dark rides and this one looks awesome. Wonder why it's not listed on the map?
RCFreak Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 I hope you're not confusing the one in Tokyo for the one in California as they quite different ride systems while following the same basic plot (the movie). I'm also a huge fan of dark rides as well, and Monster's Inc is cute, but nothing to special.
robbalvey Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 I thought the ride closed and they replaced with something featuring Drew Carey and Regis or something like that...
gdoggy1678 Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 The one in California Adventure is still open. I Rode it last month also wondering if it was closed do to the map.
outbackjack Posted July 24, 2011 Author Posted July 24, 2011 Still wondering....why isn't it included on map or attractions? A company like Disney doesn't make a mistake like that.
805Andrew Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I've been on it in the past but I skipped it on my last DCA visit last September. It is a very low key ride there, nothing special, and everyone walking by it is on their way to Tower of Terror (myself included). I would compare it to a Fantasyland dark ride at Disneyland like Snow White's Scary Adventures or Mr Toad's Wild Ride. It is kinda like Roger Rabbit without the spinning, so not nearly as fun. I wouldn't wait more than 10-15 minutes to ride it.
The SETGO Guys Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Whats funny (and cheap) is that -Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue- is a re-themed version of a previous ride that went by the name of Superstar Limo. (The ride was very unpopular...as with the rest of early DCA) Disney actually didn't make very many changes to the ride to transfer it over to Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue. All of the so called Audio-Animatronics (Though figures were animated (moving arms or heads), none of Disney's famed human-like Audio-Animatronics technologies were used in the attraction.) were basically just given a new exterior, the ride cars rethemed, and some new sets added. (I typed this yesterday...but forgot to post it)
