Designing Christmas Ride Overlays For Disney Parks with a Stroopwaffle Bourbon Coffee

Aaron & Aaron Season 2 Episode 28

Send us a text

What if your favorite Disney rides got a full holiday glow-up? We poured a Stroopwaffle bourbon coffee and went all-in on seasonal overlays, sketching out scene-by-scene makeovers that keep each attraction’s DNA intact while layering in music, projections, scents, and plenty of festive chaos.

First up, Space Mountain gets a “Santa’s Galactic Delivery” sprint with sleigh-styled cars, poppy Christmas tracks timed to the lift, and rooftop chimney fly-bys racing past in the dark. Pirates of the Caribbean becomes a family holiday fever dream—relatives re-cast as pirates, cats in Santa hats, and a cheeky “Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Nog” soundtrack. Indiana Jones Adventure morphs into Eye of the Forbidden Nutcracker with toy soldier set pieces, Chip and Dale roasting chestnuts, a Santa-faced boulder, and snow effects that turn the dart room into a blizzard.

We keep the momentum going with Autopia as a North Pole light drive—minimal changes, maximum magic—ideal for night rides under synchronized holiday lights. Expedition Everest reimagined as Expedition North Pole sets up a cozy Winter Wonderland climb that snaps into Sleigh Ride-speed mayhem with a Disco Santa Yeti. Toy Story Mania goes full Krampus Mania with playful, song-timed targets that make every pull hilariously mischievous. And because projections make quick work of seasonal swaps, Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway turns into a charming Christmas Eve dash: shopping traffic, Daisy’s dance party, a last-minute Pluto gift run, and a calm cruise home with a Santa-bearded Chuby.

If you love Disney parks, Jollywood Nights, and smart seasonal overlays that deliver fresh thrills without heavy downtime, this one’s for you. Hit play, then tell us which ride deserves a holiday makeover and the song you’d score it with. Subscribe, share with your park buddies, and leave a review to help more Disney fans find the show. Cheers to Ears—and cheers to Christmas at the parks!

SPEAKER_01:

Hello and welcome to Cheers to Ears. Where today we're having a Stroop Wapple bourbon coffee from Jollywood Knights. Welcome to Cheers to Ears. Okay, so we're trying our drink here. What do you think? It's a very good drink. This is the bur Buffalo Trace bourbon, caramel syrup, half and half, cold brew, caramel drizzle with a crushed waffle garnish. And right here that I'm reading, it offers it says it offers sweet, spicy, and boozy notes of the popular Dutch waffle. That's what it says. It's$10 at Jollywood Nights, Aaron.

SPEAKER_00:

That's Disney cheap. Right. You could have two or three of these for the price of a regular drink. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

$10 is good. And this is very good. Who doesn't like a good Stroop Waffle?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, I know. That's what sold me Stroop Waffle. So we did ours. We did Jim Beam, two ounces of Jim Beam bourbon, salted caramel syrup. We did it about an ounce, an ounce and a half of half and a half, four and a half ounces of cold brew. And then we garnished it like I did, I pulled a Starbucks and drizzled it around the edge of the cup with the caramel sauce. And then you cut up a stroop waffle and we dropped the little crumbles on top and then had a half of a stroop waffle on top.

SPEAKER_01:

And as we're recording, I'm finding I'm getting so you drank some of yours before we started.

SPEAKER_00:

Yes.

SPEAKER_01:

But I still have Stroopwaffle on the top of mine. And yes, I and adds chewing to the podcast.

SPEAKER_00:

Adds chewing and a little firmer, I would say, because of the cold. That caramel and the stroop waffle.

SPEAKER_01:

So we'll see how that works out. I'll try to drink around it as we go here. But today we're talking about ride overlays at Disney. Yes. And we're drinking this delicious drink. Can we talk about how we made it ourselves? Yeah. Oh, we already did. Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

I did.

SPEAKER_01:

I'm lost. We haven't done this for a while.

SPEAKER_00:

Yes, we've been on break. Thanksgiving break.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, so yeah. Let's get back into it.

SPEAKER_00:

Let's do that.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay, now we're in.

SPEAKER_00:

Welcome to Cheers to ears. So Christmas overlays on rides that don't have them. And I forgot because we were talking about just randomly as we do Disney stuff. Boy, it'd be great if that had an overlay, Christmas overlay.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, I think we had two episodes in a row where me or you mentioned an overlay a ride should have.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

I think it was Tiana's one. Yes. And there was another one. And then we decided this would be a good episode. And we could talk hours probably and go every single ride. Oh, yes. I think they should do every ride.

SPEAKER_00:

I do too.

SPEAKER_01:

It should be an entire Disney Christmas.

SPEAKER_00:

Hired 10,000 seasonal workers to put the decoration. Yeah, some elves. Put them decorations up. Good times. Yeah, but we did five each. We did five.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

We reined it in.

SPEAKER_01:

We reined it.

SPEAKER_00:

Yes. Rain deered it in.

SPEAKER_01:

We're gonna slay this episode.

SPEAKER_00:

And it starts with a great jingle. I will say that.

SPEAKER_01:

Well, we did one of the best Christmas theme songs. I I think so. Like known to man. Thank you, Suno.

SPEAKER_00:

So anyway, getting back to our topic. Yeah. We did, I think we only had one one, as we want to do. We don't talk about this. We just here's the topic and come up with who you want to come up with. We only had one overlap of one ride.

SPEAKER_01:

Right.

SPEAKER_00:

I believe. And that was Space Mountain.

SPEAKER_01:

Just Space Mountain, yeah. And yeah. And I just so I went different than I usually usually I go deep diving into everything. And I think you deep dove more than me this time. Probably had bullet points.

SPEAKER_00:

I had bullet points.

SPEAKER_01:

I just have a quick little here's what the ride's about. And then I thought we could just discuss what we both thought. Like, if it's a good idea, I hate that idea.

SPEAKER_00:

Why don't you start off and just read your quick thought and then I'll go over what I came up with.

SPEAKER_01:

So my first one is Pirates. Pirates of the Caribbean.

SPEAKER_00:

No, no, no. Oh. Let's start with Space Mountain because that's the one.

SPEAKER_01:

Well let's just start with Space Mountain.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, because that's the one we both did.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay, my Space Mountain is Santa's Galactic Delivery Ride.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_01:

So you're you're the sleigh and you're flying around really fast. I have a couple of Santa rides going on here, but oh, I have a bunch. Yeah. Yeah. This is all about Santa going as fast as he can to get places because he ran late. Warp speed. Yeah, he's going. Yeah. He's going. So that's my that was my idea for the ride.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

Is yours anything close to that?

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, yeah. So mine's Santa Claus Mountain, you because it gets like hyperspace mountain, whatever the demonic portal to Hell Mountain for Halloween. I don't know what they call it. It's pretty messed up, though. So mine, of course, the cars are reshaped into sleighs. They get a little overlay on those. Whether it's just on the side that they attach somehow or on the over the whole thing. I don't know. Disney, you gotta come up with that. So of course, you're in a sleigh. Now you've got to have some poppy, like some 80s Christmas music playing through the whole ride. And like Wonderful Christmas time, Paul McCartney. Yeah. Stuff like that.

SPEAKER_01:

Oh, so yeah, so like happier tunes while you're flying.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. And the stuff that they came up with like in the 80s of and or just real upbeat poppy music. Because it's about a two and a half to two minute and 45 second ride, but with the ride up and wonderful Christmas time is three just over three and a half minutes. So I've thought that's enough time that what to where if they started as you're going up into the ride, you could hear the whole song as you're going along.

SPEAKER_01:

So is it like more like Guardians where they have different songs?

SPEAKER_00:

And I thought that might be a potential.

SPEAKER_01:

Like Felice Navidad.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh dear Lord, I hope not.

SPEAKER_01:

But yes, that'd be funny. You're going so fast, it'd be funny. You're just having a good time. This is true. Just like some of the Aerosmith songs that you try to sing along with as you're riding rock and roller coasters.

SPEAKER_00:

It probably makes the most sense to do, yeah. To do different.

SPEAKER_01:

I'm trying to think of other campy 80s Christmas songs. But that's I mean Santa Baby probably doesn't. That's just probably too slow.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. I don't know. It's a great idea. There's a lot of potential though. So chimney and rooftop projections throughout.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

And then lighted reindeer throughout.

SPEAKER_01:

That you see them at the end of the room.

SPEAKER_00:

Flying along, you'll see lighted lit up reindeer. Yeah. But then projections. So it looks like you're coming in hot on a roof with a chimney and you just fly by it and stuff. So maybe you gotta throw some presents off. Hope you make it.

SPEAKER_01:

I like that.

SPEAKER_00:

But yeah, that's yeah, that'd be cool.

SPEAKER_01:

Same idea with the galactic delivery ride. If you look down and you see the houses, yes, yeah. That's a good idea.

SPEAKER_00:

So you gotta have some projections in there. But the music, I think, is what really makes it.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. For all of mine, I actually have music.

SPEAKER_01:

Oh, really?

SPEAKER_00:

Yes. Very important.

SPEAKER_01:

You went James Gunn on it.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Music is very important. Okay. So that was that was Santa Claus Mountain, Space Mountain Overlay.

SPEAKER_01:

That's pretty good.

SPEAKER_00:

Any other thoughts?

SPEAKER_01:

I don't think so. Okay. Is that good?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Projections. It's a little harder with that ride because it's so dark. So it's just kind of like a lot of projections, like they normally do with like hyperspace.

SPEAKER_01:

Like a lot of episodes, this seems like it's going to be really fast, but then we go, we'll go on a tangent in a couple minutes and we'll be long. Oh yeah. We'll see what happens here.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, we're eight minutes in and we've only done one. See that there you go. And the drink.

SPEAKER_01:

And the drink. And so my first one is pirates, like I said before. Okay. When we couldn't figure out how to do it. Yeah. So in my pirates ride, all the pirates are a different relative that you have. Like a drunk uncle. Drunk uncle. An aunt delivering cookies. Uncle Donald. Yes. Like your Uncle Donald. Yes. An aunt delivering cookies. To you, like flying around. Oh yeah. Yeah. And uh and there's a this guy that pops up once in a while, and he's the Christmas thief. Oh. The Jack Sparrow part? Uh-huh. Is the guy that's gonna come steal your presents because he pops out over the oh yeah, peeks around and he's looking around.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. That's the Christmas thief. I think the ant is definitely the no, no, no, Carlos, don't be cheeky. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. That's the ant, right there.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, so all you could do all sorts of relatives, the whole Christmas, like they had a drunk Christmas.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. That's the whole idea of the ride. Like the cats, and I think I've explained this before. The guy who's drunk with all the cats, that is a likeness of my deceased uncle, Uncle Donald. And so whenever I go by, say hey, Uncle Donald. But yeah, put some Christmas hats on the cats.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, and Uncle Donald's sitting there with a little hat on.

SPEAKER_00:

You know, a little Christmas hat on. Boozy eggnog. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah. And uh and the song playing is Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Nog.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, I like it.

SPEAKER_01:

As you're going. All new Disney song.

SPEAKER_00:

All new Disney song song. Yes, original. Okay.

SPEAKER_01:

That's my pirates.

SPEAKER_00:

That's a good pirates. So my next one, Indiana Jones, Eye of the Forbidden Nutcracker.

unknown:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

So, of course, there's just nutcrackers everywhere. The trucks are now Santa Slay. All right. They just have to be. They have to be a sleigh. That's a great idea. I don't think how you don't know how you would do this other than making everything a sleigh. So Chip and Dale, the fire scene.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. So Chip and Dale roasting chestnuts over those flames. Chip and Dale. Okay. Yeah. They make an appearance. An appearance. Or maybe it's just nutcrackers that are roasting chestnuts. But during that, the Christmas song, chestnuts roasting on an open fire. Yeah. So that has to be playing during that.

SPEAKER_01:

While you're going up and down.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Bouncing around. So I I did pick some other songs throughout. This one's hard because there's so many different scenes. But what was oh, you know when you're like going through the skeletons everywhere? Yeah. Kind of close to the start. March of the Toy Soldiers from Nutcracker. Okay. And they're not skeletons, they're of course Nutcracker hanging from ropes and all of that coming at you. Santa Claus is coming to town when the ball is rolling down. You know, that final scene where the ball starts coming at you, but there's a big Santa face all the way around the ball. And Santa Claus is coming to town as it's coming towards you.

SPEAKER_01:

A big Santa Santa boulder.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, big Santa boulder. And then sell those. You could.

SPEAKER_01:

It's a merch.

SPEAKER_00:

There's lots of merch ideas here. And then the poison dart when you're going through the supposedly, yeah, and the air blowing at you. Let it snow is playing during that, and fake snow is falling. Fake snow. So it's like you're driving through a snowstorm.

SPEAKER_01:

Nice. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

So that was all of my that I came up with. Indiana Jones Eye of the Forbidden Nutcracker. That's a good one. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, you went really deep. I like that. Because I did not. My next one is Country Bear Jamboree. Oh. I thought you would do this one. I was nervous putting it down because I thought for sure you would have it.

SPEAKER_00:

I and I was going with rides. Right.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah. So in Country Bear Jamboree, the main song, so you could put any song any place in there. It's Christmas songs, right? It's easy to do. But the one I have is a big owl singing Blue Christmas. Oh, yeah. And that being kind of the theme. Uh-huh. Yeah. Like the remember me thing he does. Remember me. Blue Christmas. Blue Christmas. Excellent. Yeah. And so, and then snow dropping at the end, of course. Oh, yeah. Of the show. Like you end with the snow dropping.

SPEAKER_00:

And just all kinds of Christmas outfits on it. Yeah. Yeah. That would be good. Okay, so the closest I came to this, I thought about Carousella Progress. That would be good too, because they could do such good Christmas themes. But I couldn't think of that without coming up with some bad Christmas ideas. Like one of them, it's old and the house is burned down because they didn't water the tree and sketchy lighting, and they were putting real lit candles in the tree.

SPEAKER_01:

Right.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

Like at the end where the oven's like 5,000 degrees. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

And so that was the closest I came to because it's an attraction, but it's not necessarily a ride. And I was sticking with rides, but I was real tempted with carousel progress. Yeah. But I didn't want to go dark. You didn't? I didn't.

unknown:

What?

SPEAKER_00:

It's Christmas. Only during Christmas.

SPEAKER_01:

We haven't got into you.

SPEAKER_00:

Any other time of year? I'll go, I'll go dark.

SPEAKER_01:

We'll see because we have one Christmas episode left after this. We'll see if we go dark. We'll see.

SPEAKER_00:

No.

SPEAKER_01:

We don't know yet. We're not there. We're not there. In the moment, darky.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Oh, maybe I did go a little dark on this.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay, I think you did.

SPEAKER_00:

Not really, but sort of. Okay.

SPEAKER_01:

My next one I knew you didn't have. What's that? Autopia. No. Autopia. I know we had Space Mountain. I could have, I would have got a lot, I would have had a lot more like yours if I would have really deep dove into it. And I was trying to I first tried to get not the same ones you had.

SPEAKER_00:

Okay.

SPEAKER_01:

Is what I started with. Yeah. And that's why I went to Autopia. And it's a North Pole road rage. So like it. The reindeer are on strike, and the North Pole is Mayhem. So no one can get around anywhere because the reindeer and Ells are on strike.

SPEAKER_00:

Do they have to swap out all the regular tires for some snow tires on all the cars?

SPEAKER_01:

Oh, yeah. That's a good idea.

SPEAKER_00:

It just it would make sense. Yeah, that'd be if it had chains on some of the you know what'd be cool is the Piston Peak if they just planned it with a Christmas overlay. Because you're driving through the mountains. Yeah. I just think that makes sense.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, not change the ride, just have that.

SPEAKER_00:

Well, yeah, and you throw some extra snow and maybe some Christmas decorations.

SPEAKER_01:

Christmas decorations inside?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

That's a good idea. They don't have to do anything different with the ride. Yeah. They can just throw Christmas decorations in there.

SPEAKER_00:

Now, at some point, like Autopia would be great just to have Christmas lights everywhere. You know how you go to like Portland Raceway and they have lights throughout the entire raceway, or you drive through those neighborhoods and everybody's participating. Something like that. And I thought they did that at one point.

SPEAKER_01:

I don't know. I mean, I've never been there at Christmas.

SPEAKER_00:

I've I've never seen that, but at some point I thought I'd heard that they did that, but I could be wrong.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

But it just seems like that would be a fairly easy one. It would. Like you could almost leave the lights up all year, too. It's not like you'd have to pull them out. They would, because they're Disney and they everything's got to be perfect.

SPEAKER_01:

But yeah, it's just driving through a light show.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

I like that. I like it. And yeah, Uptopia sounds bet better as we talk about it. I think it's a really good idea now. Yes. I just thought it was an idea that you wouldn't have. And it's a it's a really good idea.

SPEAKER_00:

It would get me on it. It's like Small World. I won't ride Small World, but at Christmas I will. Yeah. Because it's like a million times better. But completely sucking is a million times better, means it's a low bar to low bar to jump over. Okay.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

My next one. Yes. Expedition North Pole. Okay. For Expedition Everest.

SPEAKER_01:

You're going fast again.

SPEAKER_00:

Yes. Okay. It was hard not to do a bunch of roller coasters. I had to stop myself because my first three Indiana Jones, Space Mountain, Expedition Everest. Yeah. So Disco Yeti becomes Disco Santa Yeti. You just bit a big Santa outfit on it. Yeah. Easy. And so it's a winter train to the North Pole with promises of hot cocoa that never materialize.

SPEAKER_01:

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Because you couldn't serve hot cocoa on that ride, it'd go flying everywhere. But you think you're going to oh chuck chuck chuck as you're going slowly up, because the first part's pretty slow. Uh-huh. And you think you're headed to the North Pole. Oh, this is going to be great. And then you descend into chaos.

SPEAKER_01:

So that's where the track ends.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

That track ends and the ride changes into chaos.

SPEAKER_00:

So I like that. Yeah. I was thinking, I got my inspiration from Polar Express with this one. Except for there's no dead-eyed children in this ride. That's not a Disney one, is it? Polar Express.

SPEAKER_01:

I don't think it is.

SPEAKER_00:

I don't yeah, I didn't think so. Yeah. I finally sat down and forced myself to watch that start to finish the whole way through. And it's it is a decent movie. It's just it's early with the computer animation, and yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

You don't dig it.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, and the kids got dead eyes. So anyway, my kids love it. So the songs Winter Wonderland up through the point where it drops you. Is that what I had? Yeah. So Winter Wonderland up through that point. And I thought, oh, Slay Ride. That song. After it lets you go and it drops you, it's Slay Ride through the rest of the ride as it's going like 50 miles an hour. Okay. But yeah, Winter Wonderland, you're just, oh, this is such a great Christmassy ride. Part of that song. But there's just those Norman Rockwell scenes. That's good. As you're going through up until you release and go backwards, and then it's disco nightmare yeti, Santa Yeti.

SPEAKER_01:

I like that.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. That's a good one.

SPEAKER_01:

That's a good one. I only have one more. It's alright. Is that five? Yeah, that's I have two more. Two, four, five. So we both did three, four, five. We do Space Mountain together.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

Pirates, Country Bear, Utopia.

SPEAKER_00:

Why do I have two? One, two, three, four, five.

SPEAKER_01:

Probably because I went first.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, and we both did Space Mountain.

SPEAKER_01:

We both did Space Mountain and we started separately.

SPEAKER_00:

So should I do one? Just do another one. Yeah. Okay. Go for it. So my next one.

SPEAKER_01:

This one's real short.

SPEAKER_00:

Toy Story Mania gets redubbed Krampus Mania. Krampus. Krampus.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. You threw in a Krampus. So there's five scenes where you're shooting. Uh-huh. So I had to come up with different. I came up with a different thing that you're shooting and a song that goes along with it.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

So you're shooting toys out of the hands of naughty children with lumps of coal. Oh, so you're launching lumps of coal to knock the toys out of their hands of the naughty children.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

While Nuttin' for Christmas plays.

SPEAKER_01:

Oh, nice.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

I like that.

SPEAKER_00:

So that's scene one. Scene two is you're throwing plates at targets to distract mommy and daddy while I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus plays.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Yes. Yeah, you're very song song forward. I work backwards from the songs. I figured out what songs that were good ones that were that would be fun to like naughty children or kind of silly stuff like that. Yeah. So scene three. Shoot obstacles off rooftops while Santa Claus is coming to town place. So you're getting rid of the stuff that's on the roof that's blocking your landing. So you gotta shoot all kinds of stuff to knock it off, or maybe clear snow. And that might be it, where you're clearing snow and getting rid of other things that are landing there, maybe some birds or whatever is up on the roof.

SPEAKER_01:

Nice.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. So scene four, you launch miniature reindeer at pop-up grandmas scattered about the screen while grandma got run over by a reindeer place.

SPEAKER_01:

Nice. That's funny.

SPEAKER_00:

And then scene five, shoot a court gun at mischievous chipmunks who are trying to block Santa's arrival while the chipmunks song plays. That's funny. You went, Owen. Yeah. So that's I I went through each scene. I was, and that's what I figured. I was like, how many scenes? I had ChatGPT help me with figuring out the scenes and figuring out the songs for that one, and then I worked back. Backwards with having the naughty kid songs. Nice. Love it.

SPEAKER_01:

That's a good, that's a good ride. I'd write that.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, yeah. I'd write all these.

SPEAKER_01:

I'm not a huge yeah, I'm not a huge Toy Story manager. No, you immediately. No, yeah. I would write that. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's the best of the shoot 'em upper rides.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

It's my favorite one to ride.

SPEAKER_00:

Because it is better than like Web Slingers and Buzz Light Year. Buzz Light Year, both versions of Buzz Light Year. I think it's better. Yeah. It is. It definitely is.

SPEAKER_01:

You know what's not better is this HVAC system in this room.

SPEAKER_00:

Do you want to shut that off?

SPEAKER_01:

Let's just let it go. We'll see. We'll see how it turns out. Yeah. And I'll turn it off. We moved in this room. We moved in this room because the sound quality is a lot better, but then this turns on and it's very loud.

SPEAKER_00:

It's very loud in here. Yeah. Yeah. So we'll see.

SPEAKER_01:

We'll see how it turns out. I have one more.

SPEAKER_00:

Yes.

SPEAKER_01:

And it's Sorin. Okay. I think it's a great ride. Yeah. You do Santa's sleigh solar for the world. Santa's full path. Okay. And you just fly as Santa. You're on the sleigh and you're looking down at Christmas stuff. Landing. Maybe you can land a couple times. So then you had to take off again because there'll be no interactive. I'm getting out of the sleigh.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. Yeah. But just it feels like you're coming in for a landing. Right.

SPEAKER_01:

That was my only idea is to change Sorid into Santa's path. A NORAD Santa tracker. Yeah. Live NORAD Santa tracker.

SPEAKER_00:

I like that. Because really, you reprogram the computer and then you have a different video.

SPEAKER_01:

I know it seems pretty easy. I don't know why they don't do it.

SPEAKER_00:

That's a free one. All you do is pay for the labor of coming up with the overlay.

SPEAKER_01:

Right. On paper, it sounds like. I don't know why they don't do more of that, though.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. So you have one more. That's a good one. So my last one, we will wrap it up here. Mickey and Minnie's Christmas Eve. So Runaway Railway, but it's Christmas Eve. I'm excited for. Yes, it's their last minute adventures on Christmas Eve.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

So a lot of scenes in this one. I didn't realize this had as many scenes, different pieces.

SPEAKER_01:

Because it goes by so fast.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

You're in that room and you're out of the room and you're in a room and then yeah, you're just moving from room to room.

SPEAKER_00:

So the first one, and this is Christmas Eve. Everything is happening on Christmas Eve. And so it starts off, you become unhitched from Goofy's Christmas Goofy's locomotive. Okay. And so he's just on the cartoon, he's got a Santa hat, and he's just driving you around to he's basically taking the whole crew to go do some last-minute Christmas shopping and stop by a party and all the stuff. And it all falls apart. So now you got to navigate it yourself.

SPEAKER_01:

All right.

SPEAKER_00:

It's what's happening here. So scene one, you're stuck in stop and go holiday traffic to head out shopping. So it's good, it's that jerky stop and go as you're going through that first scene. And it because it's all projections, it's this is actually a really easy one to do because you're just it looks like you're in traffic and everybody's panicking because they're trying to go do that last-minute Christmas stuff. So scene two, you stop at the first store to buy presents for all your friends. And so it's just you moving through and looking at different items and yeah, filling up the cart basically. So scene three, and I should have put what these scenes were placed, but scene three, you're racing around the parking lot trying to get out.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay.

SPEAKER_00:

And that that one I do remember was the tornado room. So tornado in the middle. Yeah, where you're just doing circles trying to figure out how to get out because you're in a hurry, you're late. For heading across town, as soon as you do get out, you go into the next room, you're heading across town to make it to Daisy's Christmas party in town. Oh, so you're moving quick. And then you're at Daisy's Christmas party. Daisy's Christmas party. Because we're still dancing. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

I saw that one coming.

SPEAKER_00:

Yep. It just makes sense. Makes sense. It makes sense. So while you're at Daisy's Christmas party, you realize you forgot Pluto's gift. So you have to race across back across town to pick him up a gift. So it's that mayhem, and that's the water bubble room. Okay.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah, because you back back into it.

SPEAKER_00:

Because it can just feel like you're racing around town as you're just sitting there. And you finally get to the store, and you're you're able to pick up that that last. Oh, yeah, you could be going down the escalator. But to get Pluto his gift. And then you get it. That's the end of that scene. And the next one, or the next one, you're going to you're in the store. That's right. Because it's there's two scenes. And then you're in the store racing around trying to figure out what to get them and stuff. And finally you find the gift, and then that's the last scene is all is well, and you peacefully drive home. You know how it gets where they're in the park and all that. But you're just having this nice peaceful Christmassy drive home. And of course, the last scene, you look up and Chubi's there, and he's got his a Santa beard on and a Christmas hat. Oh, nice. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

So that is not represented very well here, is he? Nope.

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, where did Chubi go?

SPEAKER_01:

I think he's out there with our last setup. He didn't make it in here yet.

SPEAKER_00:

Or one of those kids.

SPEAKER_01:

Hopefully, yeah. Oh, I didn't know. Terrorized. I don't think about that.

SPEAKER_00:

Hid Chubi from the masses. So anyway, I think that that would just be a very fun.

SPEAKER_01:

That's the best ride. We ended well with a the best ride. That's a great one. Well, thank you. Yeah, that's a great one. I would ride that. Well, I write Mickey Minis anyway, as much as possible.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, because it's a fun ride. But that would be a fun and like I said, an easy to do Christmas overlay because it's all projections. Yeah. There's the the Christmas party, but with Daisy, but that I think would be really easy of just moving you around and you're dancing around the room, right? Saying hi to everybody.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.
