LOL...I went to look up Hong Kong Disney just to see if there was one (not that I see on the official site btw) But I did find out an interesting trivia bit..the squirting totem/tiki gods in WDW's Adventureland are duplicated there and are actually considered an attraction called The Liki Tikis. Are the ones at WDW considered and called the same? Zazu???

OH and the answer and 3 of the parks were off the top of my head.

They do have that label in some early drawings, but you'd have to look long and hard to find a CM who knows that.

Unless you know me, of course.


I like to ask the CM working the nearby "Bwana Bob's" rubber snake cart if they know who "Bob" was. Any guesses?

September 29, 1979 "The Super Globetrotters Vs. Bwana Bob" (prod. #7905)
Bwana Bob was the guy who captured the Globetrotters.

Actually the answer is:
Bwana Bob’s is named after Bob Hope. Bob starred in a 1963 film named “Call Me Bwana” which accounts for the first part of the name.

And why do you think I asked you. :p: LOL
Cool now I have a name for them. I hated just calling them the squirty tiki gods. I do really have a fondness for the first one on the right as you face them. That guy has the perfect angle of "spit" to get me nice and wet and cool without drowning me all over. He's my friend. LOL

Actually, the turtle was "nature's suction cup"; it was poodles who learned how to fly. The actor who played Raul in UHF was, unfortunately, killed by a drunk driver during the shooting of UHF in Oklahoma. Fortunately, all his scenes were in the can at the time. But it was still a shock for cast and crew.


Methinks you need to rent a copy of UHF and watch it again....

It has been a long time. I thought the poodle bit was "fishing" from the back of a stake bed truck.

And I realized that the flying turtle was from a underground comic, in which they are trying to get them to exceed the speed of light in order to regress in age. They do that by throwing them off a large canyon edge.

Ahhh, to many humor bits involving animals!

How many eggs does Gaston eat every day?


Legend: Alligators dwell in the sewers beneath Disneyland.

Truth: There are no sewers below Disneyland, and therefore no alligators in them. The secret tunnels are infested with mutant rats, however.

Gaston ate 4 dozen eggs as a lad and 5 dozen as a grown man.

What was the only line in "Be Our Guest" that was changed for Mickey's Philharmagic?

If I could quibble just a bit... At that point in time, "jiminy cricket" was just an exclamation, not a character name, akin to "holy cow!" or "golly gee whillikers." When a cricket character was created as the conscience of Pinocchio, he was given the name Jiminy Cricket based on the familiar expression. So... Grumpy wasn't saying the name of a character, just expressing surprise with a common phrase.

On the other hand -- I'm a lawyer, I'm allowed to take both sides of an argument :p: -- Pinocchio was released just three years after Snow White, so it may have been in early planning stages. It's just close enough that the reference may have been intentional.
