  • How Theme Park Rides Adapted the Shooting Gallery
    How Theme Park Rides Adapted the Shooting Gallery Bobby Schweizer Texas Tech University Lubbock, Texas United States [email protected] Keywords Shooting galleries, theme parks, midways, arcades, media archeology EXTENDED ABSTRACT In 1998, Walt Disney Imagineering unveiled a new ride for Tomorrowland in the Magic Kingdom park in Orlando, Florida—one that introduced a new form of interactivity previously unseen in their parks. Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin was a hybrid attraction: part dark ride, part shooting gallery. Riders boarded Omnimover vehicles armed with two blaster guns mounted to the dashboard that could be aimed with a limited range of motion to defeat the Emperor Zurg. An LCD screen tallied the score as passengers spun their vehicles to position themselves to shoot at “Z” marked targets throughout the blacklight neon ride. With the creation of this attraction and, most recently the opening of the Star Wars Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run, the dark ride has seemingly adopted the values of videogame interactivity. Yet, while a comparison to videogames seems obvious, this transition did not happen overnight and was, in fact, part of a long tradition of target shooting forms of play. The shooting gallery has always been a perennial entertainment form seen in fairs, carnivals, and amusement parks across the globe (Adams 1991). Emerging out of military and marksmanship traditions, these games emulate the practice of real target shooting in which a marksman stands at one end of a booth or range while shooting pellets at stationary or moving targets (Tucker and Tucker 2014). Played for prizes or bragging right, the simple act of aiming and pulling a trigger has undergone technological adaptations to automate the process, place it into new venues, and create new feedback loops that construct new player experiences intended for social interaction.

  • Considerations on the Theme Park Model As Short-Term Utopia
    CONSIDERATIONS ON THE THEME PARK MODEL AS SHORT-TERM UTOPIA. PERE GALLARDO Universidad de Lleida The hermit tums his back on the world and will have no truck with it. But one can do more than that; one can try to re-create the world, to build up in its stead another world in which its most unbearable features are eliminated and replaced by others that are in conformity with one's own wishes. Sigmund Freud. Civilization and its Disconíenís, 1930. (Resumen) Este artículo analiza la relación entre el concepto de la utopía y los parques temáticos que pueden ser considerados como utopías a "corto plazo." El estudio de parques temáticos reales, novelísticos o ñlmicos y su dependencia económica, geográfica y emocional del mundo real a la vez que pretenden un aislamiento e independencia utópica de ese mundo, revelan importantes contradicciones paradójicas de nuestra sociedad postmodema. El cambio de "roles" llega a cuestionar cuál de las dos realidades es la hiper realidad o virtud y la auténtica realidad, cuando se observa que esta última empieza a fagocitar la realidad del parque temático. I.INTRODUCTIOI^ It seems undeniable that of all the definitions ever provided of the concept of utopia, the etymological one is likely to be the most widely accepted. The well-known "good place which is nowhere" has reached the status of abiding truth and is often recalled before any discussion on the nature of specific utopias or dystopias takes place. Notwithstanding this, it is my intention in this essay to introduce a new variable. At the basis of my comments are theme parks understood as short-term utopias, as they are meant to provide a condition of happiness different and superior to that of the world outside, a condition which automatically disappears upon reentering the actual world.

  • Saturday April 16Th - Magic Kingdom Park Hours: 9:00Am - 12:00Pm
    Saturday April 16th - Magic Kingdom Park Hours: 9:00am - 12:00pm Welcome to the Most Magical Place on Earth! This is by far our favorite of the four Walt Disney World Theme Parks, and after today you will understand why! We have created a plan that covers a great deal of ground for you and hope that you will feel the magic from the moment you enter! Enjoy the sights and sounds of this amazing theme park and be sure to take a few photos in front of the iconic Cinderella Castle! *Note: If your day gets off track from the itinerary times, simply ignore the actual times and do the attractions in the order in which they are listed. Magic Kingdom TIP: If the kids would like to meet Anna and Elsa at Fairytale Hall and you do not have a FastPass+ you will need to report to the Magic Kingdom at least 45 minutes prior to park opening. Be there early! We strongly recommend arriving to the park at 30 minutes before and running straight to the Fairytale Hall with your entire party as soon as the rope drops. 9:13am - Space Mountain (69) - 3,2,1… BLAST OFF on this amazing roller coaster that will take you out of this world (in the DARK)! *Note: 44” height requirement. You can use the Rider Switch option if you would both like to ride and the kids cannot ride or do not want to. 9:24am - Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover (71) - a quiet ride lasting 10 minutes that takes you through Tomorrowland on a vehicle that has no moving parts because it uses a linear induction motor! 9:38am - Tomorrowland Speedway (68) - Put the pedal to the metal while you cruise around this scenic mini roadway! *Note: 38” height requirement.

  • “Disney-Fying” Mother Nature in the Atomic Era: How Disneyland’S Portrayals of Nature Reflected Post-War Ideals of Family, Child-Rearing, and the Home, 1955-1966
    “Disney-fying” Mother Nature in the Atomic Era: How Disneyland’s Portrayals of Nature Reflected Post-War Ideals of Family, Child-Rearing, and the Home, 1955-1966 Angela Hawk Abstract From Tom Sawyer’s Island to the world-famous Jungle Cruise, attractions at the Disneyland theme park in Anaheim, California have long used ideal- ized images of nature to delight visitors. My research explores how these images reflected popular ideals of family at the height of Cold War politics and culture in America. Using a variety of primary and secondary sources, including archived Disney films, newsreel footage, magazine and journal articles, park brochures, employee manuals, and photographs, I have stud- ied Disneyland from its disastrous grand opening in 1955 up to the death of its namesake in 1966. I have discovered that nature was indeed a vital part of the Disneyland presentation and was, moreover, essential to its popularity among American families. Every natural element, from the park’s all-en- compassing earthen berm to the impeccably manicured trees of Main Street U.S.A., served to promote a sense of fantasy and safety that was both psy- chologically comforting to parents with “atomic anxiety” and appropriately stimulating for children raised on the principles of Dr. Benjamin Spock. So potent was this “Disney version” of nature, in fact, that most contempo- raries, rather than criticizing Walt Disney for his dramatic, anthropomor- phic treatments, lauded him for his conservationist attitude. Examining the appeal of the theme park from this perspective provides insight into precise- ly how and why Disneyland became one of the foremost cultural influences of the twentieth century.

  • You're on Stage at Disney World: an Analysis of Main
    YOU’RE ON STAGE AT DISNEY WORLD: AN ANALYSIS OF MAIN STREET, USA IN THE MAGIC KINGDOM by MARISA N. SCALERA (Under the Direction of Henry Methvin) ABSTRACT This thesis explores the image and physical characteristics of Main Street, USA in the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World, Florida. The first chapter explores the questions: What thematic roles does Main Street, USA play within the Magic Kingdom, within our collective national consciousness, and across the world? The second chapter asks: How does the visitor relate to Main Street, USA? How do these interactions change throughout the course of a day? The third chapter asks: What are the defining physical characteristics of Main Street, USA? How do these characteristics influence the experience of the visitor? All three chapters use the metaphor of a show that takes place daily on the Main Street, USA stage and in which visitors are both audience and actors. Through this examination both reader and author will gain a better understanding of the composition of Main Street, USA and insight into this undeniable design force.
