Today is the last day to ride Mulholland Madness. Tomorrow the ride will be shuttered and await its transformation into Goofy's Flight School.
Goofy's Flight School is not going to be highly themed or immersive. But it will be considerably more attractive than Mulholland Madness.
Tim Delaney was the lead Imagineer overseeing the design of Paradise Pier. An immensely talented designer responsible for Discoveryland at Disneyland Paris among others, his expertise was completely wasted on the California Adventure project.
The Imagineers working on Paradise Pier pulled no punches. They knew what a disappointment it was. But they did the best they could with the extremely limited resources available to them and a creative mandate that stifled their best work.
