And you didn't list Axe Murder Manor there. I think that's one of the best mazes in years. Sets and talent were phenominal...
Yeah that Axe Murder Manor was pretty cool, especially the room with the dead girl with intestines grabbing the walls... At least that's what I thought it was...

Parody is fine - that's why I love the Simpsons. I just hope they weren't too nasty with Julie - she is such a sweetie! And yes, I have seen S.O.B.!

I'm in agreement with you.

Re: Knott's Scary Farm RIPS on Disneyland...

The Hanging is all in bad taste, that's the point. It's extremely irreverent and obnoxious. Nothing is safe from attack at The Hanging. I think that needs to be taken into account before making a judgement. As for myself, the Disneyland jokes were the funniest things about it this year, and I love DL.

Kind of ironic that they can use and parody the most sue happy Company on earth and their sacred characters (Disney), but cannot mock or use the Crypt keeper. (Yes, i know that laws protect parody as a medium) I'm sure if the word was out that they are slaughtering Disney characters "live on stage" that half the population of LA would show up for it.

Imagine if they BBQ'ed Jar jar Binks next year..

Re: Knott's Scary Farm RIPS on Disneyland...

I went there a few years ago. I miss Elvira.

I remember years back Freddie killed the tarot card reader "Miss Cleo". It was funny.

I was at Knott's Scary Farm last night and the annual show "The Hanging" took more swipes at Disney than Hong Kong on a holiday! The official title for the show was "The Hanging: The Happiest Hanging on Earth". The Calico Stage had elements on it to make fun of Disneyland. Stage left had spires and flags, and at the very center of the stage was a noose with the number 28 in the middle, obviously poking fun at the golden 50's.

Here's a list of the potshots...
  • Reference to Disneyland pulling in guests to view fireworks. Two spinning fireworks came up from the top as well as flares and fire columns to poke fun and the Indy portion of Remember...
  • Made fun of the Haunted Mansion with a fake doom buggy, then proceeded to use a laser gun (poke at BLAB) to shoot popular Disney icons, including it's a small world.
  • One part asked why did all the rides end in a gift shop and who thought of that idea... Then a Micheal Eisner impersonator came out with Golden Ears...
  • Made a reference to the audience being dumb, "Well if Disney can make them believe a Birthday can last 18 months...."
  • BIG SHOT at Julie Andrews at the beginning... Won't even mention what they said! Nasty guy as Tinkerbelle flying in from one of the adjacent buildings. Stage began lighting up like it does in Remember.
  • Parodies of When You Wish Upon A Star
  • Parade of stars joke with TONS of Disney characters dancing about on stage and then being killed.

The Funniest joke was the one they had about Six Flags. The old man came out to his theme music and started dancing with a "Theme Park 4 Sale" sign. Monster came out and killed him...

REALLY funny stuff as far as Disney material goes. Everything else was pretty lame since they can't use the Cryptkeeper, Freddy, or Jason anymore...

If you can, try to go soon because the park is VERY empty. All Roller Coasters were walk on, and we did every maze, ride, and show in under 5 Hours...
WTF! I hate Knotts! Okay, let's all go to DLR and make fun of Knotts! See how they like it...
