7:29 land. So really from my perspective not

7:29 land. So really from my perspective not much is the same in Tomorrowland now as

7:32 much is the same in Tomorrowland now as

7:32 much is the same in Tomorrowland now as it was when I was a kid. Okay, so let's

7:34 it was when I was a kid. Okay, so let's

7:34 it was when I was a kid. Okay, so let's check out Jennifer's pictures. Let's

7:35 check out Jennifer's pictures. Let's

7:36 check out Jennifer's pictures. Let's take a look at these. Now, we really

7:38 take a look at these. Now, we really

7:38 take a look at these. Now, we really only have two pictures of Tomorrowland

7:41 only have two pictures of Tomorrowland

7:41 only have two pictures of Tomorrowland here, but there's a lot going on with

7:43 here, but there's a lot going on with

7:43 here, but there's a lot going on with them. So, let's start with this one.

7:44 them. So, let's start with this one.

7:44 them. So, let's start with this one. Right away, you'll see right at the top,

7:46 Right away, you'll see right at the top,

7:46 Right away, you'll see right at the top, there's the old Skyway to Fantasy Land

7:48 there's the old Skyway to Fantasy Land

7:48 there's the old Skyway to Fantasy Land or Skyway to Tomorrowland. Either way,

7:50 or Skyway to Tomorrowland. Either way,

7:50 or Skyway to Tomorrowland. Either way, you slice it. The old Skyway ride at

7:52 you slice it. The old Skyway ride at

7:52 you slice it. The old Skyway ride at Disneyland hovering above an old school

7:58 Disneyland Montreal. I could be wrong

7:58 Disneyland Montreal. I could be wrong because I'm bad with remembering

8:00 because I'm bad with remembering

8:00 because I'm bad with remembering technical stuff like this, but I'm

8:01 technical stuff like this, but I'm

8:01 technical stuff like this, but I'm pretty sure that that is a Mark 3

8:04 pretty sure that that is a Mark 3

8:04 pretty sure that that is a Mark 3 Montreal. And boy is that thing pretty

8:07 Montreal. And boy is that thing pretty

8:07 Montreal. And boy is that thing pretty sweet and pretty rad and pretty retro

8:09 sweet and pretty rad and pretty retro

8:09 sweet and pretty rad and pretty retro looking. Now notice that observation

8:11 looking. Now notice that observation

8:11 looking. Now notice that observation bubble up there on the top. These

8:13 bubble up there on the top. These

8:13 bubble up there on the top. These Montreals I'm pretty sure lasted till

8:15 Montreals I'm pretty sure lasted till

8:15 Montreals I'm pretty sure lasted till 1987. But to be honest with you, I

8:18 1987. But to be honest with you, I

8:18 1987. But to be honest with you, I really don't remember them at all. Even

8:20 really don't remember them at all. Even

8:20 really don't remember them at all. Even though I was in Disneyland at the same

8:22 though I was in Disneyland at the same

8:22 though I was in Disneyland at the same time I was like, you know, 3 4 years

8:24 time I was like, you know, 3 4 years

8:24 time I was like, you know, 3 4 years old. So bad memory. I guess I could be

8:27 old. So bad memory. I guess I could be

8:27 old. So bad memory. I guess I could be wrong about this, too, but I'm pretty

8:28 wrong about this, too, but I'm pretty

8:28 wrong about this, too, but I'm pretty sure that's where the driver sat up in

8:30 sure that's where the driver sat up in

8:30 sure that's where the driver sat up in that bubble up there. But anyway,

8:31 that bubble up there. But anyway,

8:31 that bubble up there. But anyway, anyway. Yeah, there's not too much going

8:33 anyway. Yeah, there's not too much going

8:33 anyway. Yeah, there's not too much going on in that first picture other than

8:34 on in that first picture other than

8:34 on in that first picture other than showing us the Montreal and of course

8:36 showing us the Montreal and of course

8:36 showing us the Montreal and of course the roof of the Tomorrowland Terrace

8:38 the roof of the Tomorrowland Terrace

8:38 the roof of the Tomorrowland Terrace restaurant, but the Montreal provides us

8:40 restaurant, but the Montreal provides us

8:40 restaurant, but the Montreal provides us with a clue as to where the picture was

8:42 with a clue as to where the picture was

8:42 with a clue as to where the picture was taken, which is up on the Montreal

8:45 taken, which is up on the Montreal

8:45 taken, which is up on the Montreal platform. And that's also where picture

8:46 platform. And that's also where picture

8:46 platform. And that's also where picture number two was taken as well. Might be

8:48 number two was taken as well. Might be

8:48 number two was taken as well. Might be kind of awkward to get up here, but

8:50 kind of awkward to get up here, but

8:50 kind of awkward to get up here, but let's see what we can do. At least this

8:52 let's see what we can do. At least this

8:52 let's see what we can do. At least this hasn't changed all that much. You can

8:54 hasn't changed all that much. You can

8:54 hasn't changed all that much. You can still smell the smell of gas. Ah, fuel.

8:59 still smell the smell of gas. Ah, fuel.

8:59 still smell the smell of gas. Ah, fuel. Uh-oh. Okay, kind of a long line for the

9:02 Uh-oh. Okay, kind of a long line for the

9:02 Uh-oh. Okay, kind of a long line for the Montreal right now. Hang on, I got

9:05 Montreal right now. Hang on, I got

9:05 Montreal right now. Hang on, I got another idea. In the picture, you can

9:06 another idea. In the picture, you can

9:06 another idea. In the picture, you can see the old school escalator up to and

9:09 see the old school escalator up to and

9:09 see the old school escalator up to and down from the Montreal platform. And I

9:11 down from the Montreal platform. And I

9:11 down from the Montreal platform. And I just realized that escalator is gone.

9:14 just realized that escalator is gone.

9:14 just realized that escalator is gone. But there's still a staircase where the

9:15 But there's still a staircase where the

9:15 But there's still a staircase where the escalator used to be on the other side

9:17 escalator used to be on the other side

9:17 escalator used to be on the other side of this Nemo line here. See, this

9:19 of this Nemo line here. See, this

9:19 of this Nemo line here. See, this staircase right here is roughly, not

9:21 staircase right here is roughly, not

9:21 staircase right here is roughly, not exactly, but roughly where that

9:23 exactly, but roughly where that

9:23 exactly, but roughly where that escalator is in the picture. You can see

9:26 escalator is in the picture. You can see

9:26 escalator is in the picture. You can see here, this roughly matches the picture

9:28 here, this roughly matches the picture

9:28 here, this roughly matches the picture right there where the Montreal would be

9:30 right there where the Montreal would be

9:30 right there where the Montreal would be coming right along the track here in the

9:32 coming right along the track here in the

9:32 coming right along the track here in the background. That's the hole where the

9:34 background. That's the hole where the

9:34 background. That's the hole where the people mover used to go into some of the

9:35 people mover used to go into some of the

9:35 people mover used to go into some of the buildings of Tomorrowland. And here is

9:37 buildings of Tomorrowland. And here is

9:37 buildings of Tomorrowland. And here is the edge of the people mover track as it

9:39 the edge of the people mover track as it

9:39 the edge of the people mover track as it goes

9:40 goes

9:40 goes alongside of the Montreal. Boy, that

9:43 alongside of the Montreal. Boy, that

9:43 alongside of the Montreal. Boy, that Montreal sure looks different. But this

9:45 Montreal sure looks different. But this

9:45 Montreal sure looks different. But this spot over here pretty much the same. And

9:48 spot over here pretty much the same. And

9:48 spot over here pretty much the same. And those sky buckets used to go through the

9:50 those sky buckets used to go through the

9:50 those sky buckets used to go through the Matter Horn, through a hole in the

9:51 Matter Horn, through a hole in the

9:52 Matter Horn, through a hole in the center of the mountain there, and onto

9:53 center of the mountain there, and onto

9:53 center of the mountain there, and onto Fantasy Land to a station that just got

9:56 Fantasy Land to a station that just got

9:56 Fantasy Land to a station that just got demolished right now. But you can see a

9:57 demolished right now. But you can see a

9:57 demolished right now. But you can see a picture of it in the other video that I

9:59 picture of it in the other video that I

9:59 picture of it in the other video that I did. Go backwards. Go backwards. All

10:00 did. Go backwards. Go backwards. All

10:00 did. Go backwards. Go backwards. All right, here it comes. Not perfect, but a

10:03 right, here it comes. Not perfect, but a

10:04 right, here it comes. Not perfect, but a pretty close match to Jennifer's picture

10:07 pretty close match to Jennifer's picture

10:07 pretty close match to Jennifer's picture from the 1980s. Modern

10:09 from the 1980s. Modern

10:09 from the 1980s. Modern Montreal, old school Montreal. That is

10:14 Montreal, old school Montreal. That is

10:14 Montreal, old school Montreal. That is pretty freaking cool. All right, now

10:17 pretty freaking cool. All right, now

10:17 pretty freaking cool. All right, now look at this next picture. This next

10:19 look at this next picture. This next

10:19 look at this next picture. This next picture is insane. At the top, we've got

10:22 picture is insane. At the top, we've got

10:22 picture is insane. At the top, we've got the sky bucket, Skyway to Fantasy Land.

10:24 the sky bucket, Skyway to Fantasy Land.

10:24 the sky bucket, Skyway to Fantasy Land. And then underneath is the giant rocket

10:27 And then underneath is the giant rocket

10:28 And then underneath is the giant rocket on the center of that people mover

10:30 on the center of that people mover

10:30 on the center of that people mover loading platform. And at the bottom of

10:32 loading platform. And at the bottom of

10:32 loading platform. And at the bottom of that rocket, that is where you actually

10:34 that rocket, that is where you actually

10:34 that rocket, that is where you actually got onto the little spaceships that

10:36 got onto the little spaceships that

10:36 got onto the little spaceships that would rise up and turn in a circle just

10:38 would rise up and turn in a circle just

10:38 would rise up and turn in a circle just like today's modern astroorbiter. That

10:41 like today's modern astroorbiter. That

10:41 like today's modern astroorbiter. That little trestle looking thing that you

10:42 little trestle looking thing that you

10:42 little trestle looking thing that you could see right in front of Space

10:43 could see right in front of Space

10:43 could see right in front of Space Mountain, that was the elevator that

10:45 Mountain, that was the elevator that

10:45 Mountain, that was the elevator that came up to that platform to the top part

10:47 came up to that platform to the top part

10:47 came up to that platform to the top part of it so you could load on to those

10:49 of it so you could load on to those

10:49 of it so you could load on to those astro jets, those old rocket ships. And

10:52 astro jets, those old rocket ships. And

10:52 astro jets, those old rocket ships. And then right underneath, you can see the

10:54 then right underneath, you can see the

10:54 then right underneath, you can see the people moving. All right, prepare to

10:55 people moving. All right, prepare to

10:55 people moving. All right, prepare to feast your eyes cuz from up here at the

10:57 feast your eyes cuz from up here at the

10:57 feast your eyes cuz from up here at the Montreal exit, this is the match to that

11:00 Montreal exit, this is the match to that

11:00 Montreal exit, this is the match to that photo. Roughly speaking, modern times,

11:05 photo. Roughly speaking, modern times,

11:05 photo. Roughly speaking, modern times, 1980s.

11:06 1980s.

11:06 1980s. 1980s, modern times. This is a

11:10 1980s, modern times. This is a

11:10 1980s, modern times. This is a mindblowing change. A lot is different

11:15 mindblowing change. A lot is different

11:15 mindblowing change. A lot is different between these two views. That's crazy.

11:18 between these two views. That's crazy.

11:18 between these two views. That's crazy. Pretty much every attraction you can see

11:19 Pretty much every attraction you can see

11:19 Pretty much every attraction you can see in this picture, the rocket jets and the

11:21 in this picture, the rocket jets and the

11:21 in this picture, the rocket jets and the people mover uh and the sky buckets,

11:24 people mover uh and the sky buckets,

11:24 people mover uh and the sky buckets, they're all gone now. And as you can see

11:26 they're all gone now. And as you can see

11:26 they're all gone now. And as you can see right now, the color scheme in

11:27 right now, the color scheme in

11:28 right now, the color scheme in Tomorrowland is very blue. So, it's

11:29 Tomorrowland is very blue. So, it's

11:29 Tomorrowland is very blue. So, it's somewhat similar, but it was a lot more

11:32 somewhat similar, but it was a lot more

11:32 somewhat similar, but it was a lot more white back then, back in the day in the

11:34 white back then, back in the day in the

11:34 white back then, back in the day in the 80s. I mean, that is crazy right there.

11:36 80s. I mean, that is crazy right there.

11:36 80s. I mean, that is crazy right there. It is hard to get over just how much

11:39 It is hard to get over just how much

11:39 It is hard to get over just how much that scene has changed. Even though this

11:42 that scene has changed. Even though this

11:42 that scene has changed. Even though this one is honestly pretty similar to when I

11:44 one is honestly pretty similar to when I

11:44 one is honestly pretty similar to when I was a kid, minus the sky buckets, of

11:46 was a kid, minus the sky buckets, of

11:46 was a kid, minus the sky buckets, of course. Well, another detail that you

11:47 course. Well, another detail that you

11:47 course. Well, another detail that you can see in that picture sent to us by

11:49 can see in that picture sent to us by

11:49 can see in that picture sent to us by Jennifer, you can just see the side of

11:52 Jennifer, you can just see the side of

11:52 Jennifer, you can just see the side of the Tomorrowland Terrace stage. And the

11:55 the Tomorrowland Terrace stage. And the

11:55 the Tomorrowland Terrace stage. And the Tomorrowland Terrace stage is still here

11:58 Tomorrowland Terrace stage is still here

11:58 Tomorrowland Terrace stage is still here today. Now, what you're seeing in the

12:00 today. Now, what you're seeing in the

12:00 today. Now, what you're seeing in the picture is the side of this thing that

12:02 picture is the side of this thing that

12:02 picture is the side of this thing that is now a speaker tower and has that

12:03 is now a speaker tower and has that

12:03 is now a speaker tower and has that plant right in front of it. But from the

12:05 plant right in front of it. But from the

12:05 plant right in front of it. But from the front, man, that's where this thing is

12:08 front, man, that's where this thing is

12:08 front, man, that's where this thing is really impressive. This is one of those

12:10 really impressive. This is one of those

12:10 really impressive. This is one of those old school pieces of Tomorrowland that

12:13 old school pieces of Tomorrowland that

12:14 old school pieces of Tomorrowland that still left. This was designed by

12:15 still left. This was designed by

12:15 still left. This was designed by Imagineer Roly Crump and now they do the

12:17 Imagineer Roly Crump and now they do the

12:17 Imagineer Roly Crump and now they do the Trials of the Temple, the Star Wars show

12:19 Trials of the Temple, the Star Wars show

12:19 Trials of the Temple, the Star Wars show here. The stage still lifts up with the

12:21 here. The stage still lifts up with the

12:21 here. The stage still lifts up with the band or, you know, Darth Vader or

12:23 band or, you know, Darth Vader or

12:23 band or, you know, Darth Vader or whoever underneath. But what I really,

12:24 whoever underneath. But what I really,

12:24 whoever underneath. But what I really, really love is it has this old school

12:27 really love is it has this old school

12:27 really love is it has this old school retro futuristic design on it, which you

12:30 retro futuristic design on it, which you

12:30 retro futuristic design on it, which you can see in that picture. It's just a

12:32 can see in that picture. It's just a

12:32 can see in that picture. It's just a part of old classic Tomorrowland that's

12:34 part of old classic Tomorrowland that's

12:34 part of old classic Tomorrowland that's still here. See, when you look at that

12:35 still here. See, when you look at that

12:36 still here. See, when you look at that picture, even from the 1980s, even into

12:37 picture, even from the 1980s, even into

12:38 picture, even from the 1980s, even into the early 90s, Tomorrowland still had

12:40 the early 90s, Tomorrowland still had

12:40 the early 90s, Tomorrowland still had that very midcentury modern futurism

12:42 that very midcentury modern futurism

12:42 that very midcentury modern futurism about it. In the late '9s, they really

12:44 about it. In the late '9s, they really

12:44 about it. In the late '9s, they really tried to cover that up at Disneyland,

12:46 tried to cover that up at Disneyland,

12:46 tried to cover that up at Disneyland, but it looks like more and more they're

12:48 but it looks like more and more they're

12:48 but it looks like more and more they're accepting their destiny because

12:50 accepting their destiny because

12:50 accepting their destiny because honestly, if you look at the

12:51 honestly, if you look at the

12:51 honestly, if you look at the architecture of almost every building in

12:53 architecture of almost every building in

12:53 architecture of almost every building in Tomorrowland, you can still see the

12:56 Tomorrowland, you can still see the

12:56 Tomorrowland, you can still see the 1950s everywhere. I mean, look at how

12:58 1950s everywhere. I mean, look at how

12:58 1950s everywhere. I mean, look at how Jetson's looking everything is. The

13:00 Jetson's looking everything is. The

13:00 Jetson's looking everything is. The launch bed, the pizza port here, whose

13:03 launch bed, the pizza port here, whose

13:03 launch bed, the pizza port here, whose roof line, by the way, is actually based

13:05 roof line, by the way, is actually based

13:05 roof line, by the way, is actually based on that fin from the old McDonald

13:07 on that fin from the old McDonald

13:07 on that fin from the old McDonald Douglas aircraft logo, which I think is

13:08 Douglas aircraft logo, which I think is

13:08 Douglas aircraft logo, which I think is actually 1960s, but still still very

13:11 actually 1960s, but still still very

13:11 actually 1960s, but still still very retro old school American futurism in

13:15 retro old school American futurism in

13:15 retro old school American futurism in Tomorrowland. And really, they can't

13:17 Tomorrowland. And really, they can't

13:17 Tomorrowland. And really, they can't escape their destiny, I think. Anyway,

13:19 escape their destiny, I think. Anyway,

13:19 escape their destiny, I think. Anyway, pretty cool to take a look back at the

13:21 pretty cool to take a look back at the

13:21 pretty cool to take a look back at the old school Tomorrowland versus the

13:23 old school Tomorrowland versus the

13:23 old school Tomorrowland versus the modern Tomorrowland. As you can see, a

13:25 modern Tomorrowland. As you can see, a

13:25 modern Tomorrowland. As you can see, a heck of a lot has changed. Now, this is

13:28 heck of a lot has changed. Now, this is

13:28 heck of a lot has changed. Now, this is the part where I'm supposed to say like

13:30 the part where I'm supposed to say like

13:30 the part where I'm supposed to say like every change is good, but every change

13:32 every change is good, but every change

13:32 every change is good, but every change really isn't that good. I mean, for a

13:33 really isn't that good. I mean, for a

13:33 really isn't that good. I mean, for a while, Space Mountain was actually

13:35 while, Space Mountain was actually

13:35 while, Space Mountain was actually painted gold, which was

13:39 painted gold, which was

13:39 painted gold, which was really not a great color choice in my

13:42 really not a great color choice in my

13:42 really not a great color choice in my opinion. Then, of course, they changed

13:43 opinion. Then, of course, they changed

13:43 opinion. Then, of course, they changed the People Mover to this ride called the

13:45 the People Mover to this ride called the

13:45 the People Mover to this ride called the Rocket Rods, which only lasted about 6

13:47 Rocket Rods, which only lasted about 6

13:47 Rocket Rods, which only lasted about 6 months and then went away forever,

13:48 months and then went away forever,

13:48 months and then went away forever, leaving the track empty for all time.

13:51 leaving the track empty for all time.
