Dr Grant Seeker from Disney’s Animal Kingdom’s Dinosaur! attraction and Countdown to Extinction book is autistic and hates Autism Speaks!

[Image Description: Two images set to the background of a flag with three stripes; the upper and lower stripes are both light red, the middle stripe is a darker red. The first picture has Dr Seeker - a young man of about 30. He is wearing a white lab coat over a jean shirt and a vey tacky tie. He has black hair, blue eyes, and is leaned in to the viewer with a devious smile on his face. The second image has the Autism Speaks logo crossed out with a ‘no’ sign. End Description.]

Favorite Disney Parks Attraction Showdown: Round 3 - Group B

Videos and propaganda under the cut!

Dinosaur: WDW Animal Kingdom

Propaganda:

"I loved this ride so much!"

"Most iconic lines ever. But this ride just gets me every time! I ALWAYS come away with a smile on my face! Its so so immersive and who doesnt love dinosaurs?! Also, when I was a kid, I loved this ride but was also terrified of 90% of it at the same time, so after the first like 10 or 20 seconds, i would put my safety blanket on my head (my baby blanket that had see through holes in it/knitted) and it would mute the intensity of it(though I still also closed my eyes for most of the 2nd half xD))"

Great Movie Ride: WDW Hollywood Studios

Propaganda:

"The best 22 minutes in AC on a hot Floridian day that will forever be missed."

"IT WAS SO IMMERSIVE!!! And the guides were apart of the ride and there were 2 different path at one point, the Western or Gangster, and hiding in the animatronics would be a real person and they would take over the ride from the host, then in a later scene in Indiana Jones part, the host would trick them into a "curse" and take the ride back! (just watch the video xD)THEN you went through freaking Oz! There was no ride like it before or after and I will never get over them getting rid of it!"

Dr Grant Seeker from the Dinosaur! attraction at Disney’s Animal Kingdom is autistic. His special interest is iguanodons.

I just want to say it's pretty cool you mentioned a character from a theme park attraction. I don't know if we've ever gotten a submission about this before. I love them parks. (genuine,excited)-Mod Dragon

This guy deserves his own Funko Pop for the 50th celebration. If the Tower of Terror can get one, the Small World dolls can get some, José from the Tiki Room - even the PeopleMover, then surely they can give one to Disney World’s most chaotic and accidentally evil scientist, Dr Grant Seeker.

"What's not clicking?"

Literally such a powerful comeback. Like yes, it's your fault you can't comprehend my beautiful mind, and you should be belittled for it.

Science will never be able to explain how perfect this picture is.

I can’t wait to see how crazy this will get! (Especially because I made sure to include some non-human options). I feel like I can guess the outcome knowing this site, but maybe I will be pleasantly surprised. Have fun and remember to pick wisely. Don’t do it to be ironic!

[a-land-of-shadow-and-substance]

Here it is! My archive of over 100 images related to the soon-to-be-extinct Dinosaur/Countdown to Extinction attraction at Disney's Animal Kingdom. I understand that they may not be the highest quality, and that there are some near-duplicates, but hopefully fans of the ride and fellow bloggers will find these helpful for remembering and digitally preserving their favorite attraction. I did try to get some things I thought might otherwise not be recorded, like floor/ceiling/wall textures and switchback dividers--I know from experience that "mundane" things like that are often overlooked.

The photos are all from June 2023, taken by me.

If you use any of these, please credit me--and let me know! I'd love to see if these were helpful. I'm also happy to answer any questions.

Variety Interviews Ayo Davis, Meredith Roberts And Emily Hart On Disney Television Animation's 40th Anniversary And What To Expect On From The Past, Present And Future

40 years ago, Disney TVA was founded on the heels of challenging outcomes with features “The Fox and the Hound” and “The Black Cauldron.”

Initially, Disney TVA was restricted from using established Disney legacy characters, but nevertheless had huge successes with new shows like “The Wuzzles” and “Adventures of the Gummi Bears,” both of which became popular in syndication. As time went on, DTVA was able to use its limited rights to create shows like “DuckTales” and “TaleSpin,” which featured Disney characters. Today, the slate has evolved to include shows that travel across Disney’s streaming, linear and digital platforms, including Disney+, Disney Channel, Disney Junior and the Disney Parks

Over the 40 years of the studio has collaborated with Walt Disney Imagineering to bring beloved Disney Afternoon characters to the parks as well Mickey And Minnie's Runaway Railway and AquaMouse for the Disney Wish and Disney Treasure cruises from the Disney Cruise & Ships Line as well collaborating with Disney Yellow Two Shoes Team to redesing some heritage characters for the WDW Passholder Magnets.

Disney TVA characters also have gone to the realm of live action. In 2019 Disney Channel brought Kim Possible to the live action world as a Disney Channel Original Movie in 2019. In Spring 2022, Walt Disney Studios brought Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers to a new generation of fans trought a meta-driven live action/animated hybrid film which won an Primetime Emmy Award for Best Feature Film.

In April 2024, it was announced that Kiara from The Lion King II: Simba's Pride created at Disney TVA will make her live action debut on the motion capture/computer animated film "Mufasa The Lion King" with the character being voiced by Blue Ivy Carter. In Fall 2023, it was announced that Blumhouse Television and Atomic Monster where developing a live action reboot of Gargoyles for Disney+.

The future of the studio looks bright as the studio is slated to debut it's 100th show overall "StuGo" in 2025, as well new interations of beloved classics like The Proud Family, Phineas And Ferb, Sofia The First and Darkwing Duck trought revivals,reboots and spin-offs in the coming years with early talks of new interations of TaleSpin, Kim Possible and Recess since Early 2023.

“We have a wildly diverse development slate because we don’t have a house style,” says Meredith Roberts, executive vice president, television animation, Disney Branded Television and CEO of Disney Television Animation “Our styles are creator-driven, so that allows for real support of the artist or creator to fulfill his or her vision. Anything is possible, whether it's CGI. (“Monsters at Work”), hand-drawn 2D (“Big City Greens”,"Primos","Hailey's On It!"), rig-based 2D (“Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur”,"Kiff") and stop-motion (“Mickey Saves Christmas”,"Rhona Who Lives By The River".). Roberts continues, “We really try and solve all the problems and develop it. We look at the scripts and the story arcs. Every project has to have a strategy behind it that will complement the slate and separate it from other things. Each project has a distinct swim lane to attract an audience. And we’ve learned to meet the kids where they are, in terms of streaming and YouTube.”

Co-viewing, the viewership that happens when adults sit down to watch a DTVA show with the kids in their lives, is part of the studio’s secret sauce and long-term strategy. Many of the shows are written with jokes and plot points for both audiences so both groups will return.

“We double down on the kids and family space,” says Roberts. “We’re not just dipping a toe in the water. We’re diving in. I think we’ve seen a lot of churn with the competition, who just don’t have the patience to develop and are for this audience, which is a very specialized kid audience and co-view audience.” ("The Witchverse", "Rhona Who Lives By The River","InterCats","Fantasy Sports") Roberts reflects: “I think one of the things I’m most proud of is how stable Disney TVA has been for the last 40 years despite a lot of outside churn of the animation industry. Many of our crews feel that Disney is their forever home. I think the excitement they have to illustrate and create with this brand has been terrific because it’s harder to be funny and clean. And nowhere are we tearing down people to get that laugh. I think that’s the beauty of a Disney animated show.”

DTVA also sought to meet kids where they are by making their audience — which is made up of the most diverse generation in history — feel seen, with series such as “Elena of Avalor,” which featured Disney’s first Latina princess, and “The Proud Family,” franchise focused on the life of a teenage Black girl.

“We do have an amazing insights team that are constantly in the field, giving us general information about how kids are watching content, what they’re into,” Emily Hart (VP of Current and Development - Disney Junior) says. “Some of those things are evolving, as we know the ways kids consume content is changing. But there are some universal truths about kids, and it’s great to have that reinforced. Kids still like a lot of the same things that we like. So, there’s a combination that we’re always tracking with every new idea, and we do pilot testing. We get to sit down and talk about the content, and we invite our creators in so they can see the kids talking about it because they’re the audience and they’re the truest test of if the story is going to work.”

Ayo Davis, president of the Disney Branded Television and VP of Current and Development at Disney Television Animation says the division is a “driving force” for memorable kids and family entertainment.

“All of us at Disney Branded Television are so proud of the studio’s 40-year legacy as it continues to entertain future generations with shows like ‘Kiff,’ ‘Big City Greens’ and ‘Mickey Mouse Clubhouse 2.0" --- Davis says.

Those creators who come to DTVA often stay for a long time, partnering with the studio on a variety of different projects or expanding on a hit and reimagining it for the next generation of viewers. “The Proud Family” was a standout in 2001 on Disney Channel. Creator and executive producer Bruce W. Smith is now working on the Emmy-winning “The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder,” which is based on the original series. The show follows Penny Proud as she navigates family life and her own childhood.

“Being at Disney TVA has allowed me to realize all my artistic dreams,” says Bruce W. Smith. “As a kid, you always have hopes, thoughts, dreams, ideas and characters that can help lay out those ideas in your head. Disney has allowed me to really tap into my creative instinct, at the end of the day, you have to learn how to trust yourself. Meredith Roberts has been a true shepherd for me in all of this, allowing me to stretch my wings. Because of her belief in me and my ideas, she’s really allowed me to blossom as an artist. All that happened at DTVA.”

“They really seem to be a place that welcomes your ideas,” Dan Povenmire says of Disney TVA. “They want to find people with real strong ideas of the stories they want to tell, and then they let them tell those stories for the most part. They seem to put storytelling and characters over anything. With [‘Phineas and Ferb’], we would write jokes for the kids and the adults in the room because we knew the adults would be there too. We were just careful not to do any double entendres.”

My D23 theme park predictions:

-Most of the presentation will focus on Walt Disney World.

-Animal Kingdom Dinoland retheme further explained, complete with an Indiana Jones Adventure clone where Dinosaur used to be.

-Disneyland Forward plans further explained. Downtown Disney expansion and some more hotels announced for now.

-Avengers Campus E-Ticket showcase.

-Confirmation of the fate and use of the Stitch's Great Escape building.

-Unnecessary Magic Kingdom expansion to compete with Epic Universe. Twice the meet-and-greets and gift shops, with a brand new ice cream kiosk that only sells the Citrus Swirl and nothing else.

-The Wonders Of Life pavilion will still be off-limits to guests, but this time with wire fencing. The building will be used for the rituals.

-More dirt to play with at EPCOT.

-Journey Into Imagination With Figment retheme into an Inside Out attraction that nobody fucking wanted, thus confirming the rumors. :(

-10,000 bricks until you die show for Magic Kingdom. Merlin summons a bunch of bricks to drop onto the audience at the castle stage.

-Dole Whip at all the parks in the world will be replaced with the Citrus Swirl.

-The Star Wars Lauch Bay in Hollywood Studios gutted to make way for a dark ride based off of The Pagemaster (1994)

-Mickey's Dick Smasher finally announced for Hollywood Studios and DCA.

-The Carousel of Progress will close to be rethemed into a show about a family of Disney Adults throughout history, complete with a forced sing-a-long.

-The Galactic Starcruiser repurposed into a DVC club where the walls close in on you whenever you try to sleep. They never retract.

-Only the Splash Mountain Rap will play on loop in at the Disneyland esplanade forever.

-International parks just get exclusive merchandise. It's entirely based on the Citrus Swirl.

Did you know that Aladar sort of appeared in the Disney River Boats attraction at Disney World when that ride was there?

No!! What?? I'm also genuinely and viscerally terrified of the Dinosaur attraction there (I don't like sharks or pterodactyls; can't look at either.) so even when Aladar is in the Dinosaur ride I have to peek at him from between my fingers.

“When hinges creak in doorless chambers and strange, frightening sounds echo through the halls, wherever candlelights flicker where the air is deathly still - that is the time where ghosts are present, practicing their terror with ghoulish delight.”

“Like a grand and miraculous spaceship, our planet has sailed through the universe of time and for a brief moment, we have been among its passengers. But where are we going? And what kind of future will we discover there?”

“Where was I? Oh yes - safety instructions. First, when entering the theatre, please move as far to the end of the row as possible. Stopping in the middle is distinctly un-patriotic.”

“Hellllo, there! Welcome to our little trans-dimensional joyride, folks. I’m Dr Seeker, your friendly controller, and a heck of a palaeontologist if I do say say so myself.”

“Please stand clear of the doors. Por favor manténgase alejado de las puertas.”
