Check out the new video at the bottom of the page! It shows some of the new changes to It's A Small World at Disneyland. I had no idea that they were adding popular Disney characters to the ride. It looks really cool!

Interesting video! I have to admit that I think my husband and I are some of the only ones who don't care for this one (that's putting it mildly LOL). I'm sure we'll ride it for the kids at some point though!

I knew it was happening but hadn't seen any footage. I like that they kept them in the same style. The video makes me wish I was going to be walking down Main Street tomorrow instead of 3 and a half months from now!

THanks for the video! I knew they were working on it but did not realize also what they were adding.

Nope, count me in here too. But please don't get me started cuz that song will be stuck in my head forever.

You don't like Small World Carla??? :rotfl:

It's one of my favorite rides especially at Disneyland. I'll admit the song can get to me..........but I was fortunate enough to meet Disney Legends the Sherman Brothers (Richard & Robert) who wrote the song (they wrote many other Disney songs too) and Alice Davis an Imagineer (wife of Imagineer Marc Davis) she designed and made the costumes for It's a Small World and Pirates of the Caribbean. It's a very special attraction for me.

I think it's absolutely darling! I can't wait to see it in person (although I don't know when our next DL trip is...)

The ride seems brighter and more sparkly than ever. I really liked getting back in the boat and floating around from land to land. There were very few people in the park today - all that rain kept them home, I think - and we basically just walked on at 1:30.

Yes, they've added some doll film characters and there purists who will shout "EVIL EVIL," but it all looks great!

I think it's Awesome, can't wait to see it. It really needed to be refreshed, imagine the people that haven't gone on it for years, me included..this will bring em' back.
