Welcome foolish mortals, to JoeDarthmaz's 4K Ride-through video of Walt Disney World's Haunted Mansion. This video features 4K quality video as well as enhanced audio to heighten the experience of the classic Disney attraction.
The Haunted Mansion has always been one of my absolute favorite attractions and I have waited for years until I was able to film a high quality recording of this classic, before bringing it to the channel. Many hours went into the editing of this video and I hope that it will make you feel like you were transported right into a doom buggy ride vehicle to enjoy one of the best Disney attractions ever created.

The bayou is calling and Joe Darthmaz has answered. Regardless of where you fall on the Splash Mountain controversy and whether or not it should have been rethemed, Tiana's Bayou Adventure is open in Walt Disney World.
In this case, Disney has fulfilled the cardinal rule of attraction removal..."if you eliminate an attraction, you had better replace it with something of equal or greater quality!" Tiana's Bayou Adventure, while maintaining the same physical flume track layout and thrilling finale, has taken a giant technological leap forward with the newest cutting edge animatronics.
Although, I was a big fan of Splash Mountain and do mourn its loss, I will admit that Tiana's is a fun time for all. It should not be missed if you are in the Magic Kingdom on your next visit.

Joe Darthmaz brings you back to Main Street USA at the Magic Kingdom to enjoy the Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade in 4K.
I am not too sure what the collection of characters in this cavalcade has in common other than "adventure"...what!? However, this cavalcade features an earworm of a song that is hard to shake.
So "vamos" (you'll get it after you watch it) and join in the "adventure?"

A day at the Magic Kingdom can be so hectic and filled with running around that you can often miss out on the more quaint and nuanced aspects of the experience. One of these experiences is the decades-long tradition of Magic Kingdom's barbershop quartet, the Dapper Dans.
Joe Darthmaz invites you to sit back, relax, and enjoy the dulcet tones of the Dapper Dans as they deliver their rendition of "Cruella De Vil" and "Goodbye My Coney Island Baby."

Walter Elias Disney died in 1966 and to many in modern society, the words Walt Disney are little more than part of a huge media conglomerate's corporate moniker. However, Walt Disney was the source, the heart, the soul, the driving force, and the legend behind so much of what media and more specifically, themed entertainment has become today, almost sixty years after his death.
The Disney Parks, particularly Walt Disney World, have in recent years suffered from a serious drift away from Walt Disney's original vision of what themed entertainment should be and how it should be enjoyed by the public. While it is true that society's tastes and level of sophistication (or lack thereof) have changed and evolved in the decades since his passing, Walt had a unique and accurate assessment of what the public wanted from entertainment, which is why his company, legacy, and ideology have endured for so many years after his death.
One of the last vestiges of Walt Disney's vision and genius is still (thankfully) alive and well in Walt Disney World,. It is called the Walt Disney Carousel of Progress. Originally, presented at the 1964-5 World's Fair in Queens, New York as "Progressland," the Carousel of Progress offered visitors a view of how a fictional family evolves through four generations of technological advancements.
Walt Disney, ever an optimist, futurist, and patriotic American, wholeheartedly believed that human beings could solve many of the problems plaguing society with ingenuity, technology, and gritty hard work and determination. Many of the these themes are present in the Carousel of Progress. In fact, the theater itself was, at the time it debuted, a technological marvel, as it employed a seating area that rotated around a stationary stage depicting four different scenes.
The attraction also features the iconic song "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow" from Academy Award winning composers Robert and Richard Sherman, unfortunately abbreviated in the this video to avoid YouTube copyright strikes.
While the last scene is often mocked for its dated look at the future, Carousel of Progress remains a classic and iconic Disney attraction that should not be missed when visiting Walt Disney World and should never be permanently closed.

For generations, one of the nuances that separated Disney
Parks from your run of the mill theme parks were entertainment experiences that
you would just wander into as you plowed through your park day. Although the
cost cutting and monetization of every minute of your day has eliminated many
of these experiences, there are some that still remain.
One of these unique and smile-inducing experiences is the
Casey's Corner Pianist, located on the side of the famous Magic Kingdom quick
service hot dog location. This talented and engaging musician plays
"ragtime tunes from a bygone era," for the enjoyment of the Casey's
Corner patrons dining in the outdoor seating area, as well as any passers by
making their way through the park.
Joe Darthmaz was lucky enough to be passing by when one of
these talented musicians was making magic with his fingers, playing a tune at
an ever-increasing pace, which couldn't help bring a smile to my face.
So, enjoy a taste here at Joe Darthmaz and next time you're
in the Magic Kingdom, take a second to appreciate the remaining
"streetmosphere" entertainment like this that still remains, before
it, like so many others of its kind, are budget cut away forever!

Welcome foolish mortals! There are few Disney attraction pre-shows as classic and iconic as the Haunted Mansion "stretching room." Whether it is the gloriously creepy tones of the score, the skin crawl-inducing yet buttery voice of the ghost host, or the ingenious physical transformation of the wall portraits and the stretching room itself, this pre-show set the bar high over fifty years ago when and the attraction opened in 1971.
Join Joe Darthmaz for a trip into the stretching room of the Haunted Mansion where there are no windows and no doors and where we are all faced with this chilling challenge...to find a way out!

Take a ride with Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox, Brer Bear and tons of other critters in one of Walt Disney World's classic attractions...Splash Mountain. This part-log flume/part-dark ride has been a staple of the Magic Kingdom for thirty years. Based on a movie that has long generated contoversy, the attraction is scheduled for a re-theme and will most likely be closing soon for an extended period as it transforms in "Tiana's Bayou Adventure," scheduled to open in late 2024.
Joe Darthmaz has captured it in its current form and invites
you to take a journey to the Briar Patch, the Laughing Place, Slippin Falls,
and everywhere else you can stick an animatronic rabbit, fox, goose, frog, etc.

Every day, throngs of people take photos of or in front of Cinderella's Castle at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World. Thousands gather in front of the castle to watch fireworks each night. However, many of them don't know that there is a restaurant inside the castle, where you can enjoy a (rather pricey) meal hosted by the legendary princess herself.
Now #JoeDarthmaz takes you inside the hallowed halls of the castle for a look at the Cinderella's Royal Table dinner experience. Join us for a rare glimpse inside the iconic castle's dining hall, complete with a distanced visit from the rags to riches princess.

This time around, Joe Darthmaz brings you a full ride-through of one of the most beloved Magic Kingdom attractions of hardcore Walt Disney World fans, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover. The PeopleMover is an imaginative creation of Walt Disney himself, intended originally as a short distance conveyance system for citizens of his never-realized Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow (EPCOT.) No not the theme park...the community of the future that Walt envisioned building as part of the massive plot of land that is nowknown as Walt Disney World.
Walt dreamed of revolutionizing urban living in America by creating a utopian community where folks could live and work in a reality made better by the technology and innovativeness of American industry and ingenuity. The WEDway PeopleMover, an early name of the more practical invention that eventually became ride technology, would move citizens across short distances in his community, without the need for cars. This innovative approach was environmentally friendly, in a time when not many were concerned about such things. It would reduce the use of gas-fired combustion engine cars, reducing traffic and harmful emissions simultaneously.
Sadly, Walt's death in 1966 put an end to the dream of EPCOT as an actual community. However, the PeopleMover technology was marketed to municipalities and industries around the US and there are a few instances of its use in practical non-theme park locations. In 1975, the PeopleMover was added to Tomorrowland as part of a rejuvenation of the somewhat lackluster Magic Kingdom land.
The PeopleMover takes guests on a leisurely yet brisk sightseeing trip through Tomorrowland from an elevated trackway that winds through the land and even into some of its classic buildings, with accompanying narration pointing out the highlights of the tour. Powered completely by linear induction motors (using electromagnets to propel the ride vehicles,) the PeopleMover is still somewhat futuristic...at least in America where we don't use superconductor tech for trains.
The ride-through version we present also provides a look at the construction of the Tron Light Cycle Run coaster (as of late July 2021) scheduled to open in 2022 at Walt Disney World.

So many things have been taken away at the Disney Parks lately that looking to the past is more comforting and enjoyable than ever. With that in mind, Joe Darthmaz brings you a full version of the “Boo to You” Halloween parade from the Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween party event which was held on select nights from late August through Halloween night at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom until the COVID-cursed 2020.
This event was a fairly reasonably priced hard-ticketed event that was held after hours at the Magic Kingdom, which allowed you to enjoy reduced crowd levels, a special Halloween themed castle stage show and parade (brought to you here in its entirety from the 2014 version of the party,) and trick or treat trails from which you could collect all the candy that you could carry during the event in your specially themed treat bag, also provided as part of the price of admission. This party, which also featured Halloween themed deserts and merchandise for purchase, was replaced this year (2021) by the scaled-down, exorbitantly priced and poorly received “Disney After Hours Boo Bash.”
Copyrights on the parade music prohibit us from providing the original audio. However, we have augmented the video with a delightful track entitled “Spooky Ride,” (see credit on the YouTube watch page) which adds a playful and slightly creepy soundtrack, very much in the same spirit of the songs that were originally featured in this phenomenal parade.

Since Walt Disney World re-opened from the pandemic closure,
parades have sadly been absent from the parks. They were replaced with scaled
down mini-parades that Disney named "character cavalcades." These
cavalcades have been unscheduled so as to avoid the gathering of large crowds
in an attempt to provide social distancing. Over the past few weeks, Joe
Darthmaz has been bringing you videos of some of these cavalcades, filmed
during our recent trip Walt Disney World.
Today's video is the Disney Princess Cavalcade from Magic
Kingdom, which features Merida on horseback, Belle, and Tiana, as well as
Sleeping Beauty, Ariel, Elena, Mulan, Cinderella and her Fairy Godmother, and
Rapunzel all on the classic glass castle float.

Since Walt Disney World re-opened in 2020 from the pandemic closure, parades have sadly been absent from the parks. They were replaced with scaled down single float mini-parades that Disney named "character cavalcades." These cavalcades were unscheduled so as to avoid the gathering of large crowds during attempts at social distancing. While they are not a legitimate replacement for a proper Disney parade, the cavalcades are a nice impromptu piece of character entertainment that sneak up on you during your park day.
Over the next few weeks, Joe Darthmaz will be bringing you videos of some of these cavalcades, filmed during our recent trip to Walt Disney World.
