Did you want 1983, or 1989? :)
If it's 1989, it's Splash Mountain. Florida's Splash Mountain debuted on Disneyland's 37th anniversary - July 17, 1992.

Tony Baxter was involved with the Indiana Jones ride at Disneyland.
Here's two of my recycled un-answered trivia questions:
1. What two tributes to the original Submarine Voyage can be found in the Finding Nemo: Submarine Voyage at Disneyland?
2. Who did the Sherman Brothers initially want to donate the royalties from the song, "it's a small world" to? What did Walt Disney advise them to do with it instead?
Sure. I'll accept these answers. First portion you're correct on the children's charity answer. However, as far as I know the only thing that both of the brothers mentioned came from their recently released documentary.
Apparently, Walt was driving the two brothers back to the studio from where they were and the boys said that they wanted to donate all the royalties from the song "it's a small world" to the kids. Immediately following that, Walt slammed the brakes on and pulled over and told them that they "Weren't going to give those royalties away." and "Don't be silly... you're getting a lot of money for this."
So, in a round-a-bout way the Sherman Brothers *could* have potentially used it to put their kids through schooling and post-secondary. :)
I have *no* idea on the Submarine question; I'm not *that* familiar with the west-coast attractions :blush:
What's the answer? :)
Good digging there, Zawadi! :thumbsup:
Haha, Jim... the two answers to this question would have been: The "Nautilus" name that was retained on one of the submarines as well as the original sea serpent incased in plaster rock formations (which are most visible in the form of the sea serpent's head outside of the sub windows). A duplicate clone of the serpent's head (the rock formation at least) was made so the opposite side of the sub could see the serpent tribute as well.
And here's a whack of new questions, spanning many different facets of the Disney-verse:
1. Which company sponsored the attraction, "Adventures Thru Inner Space" at "Disneyland"?
2. What was the secret project code-name used during production of the Disney-PIXAR film, "The Incredibles"?
3. The Mad Doctor was the villain of the original video game, "Disney Epic Mickey". What predominant feature made him unique and perhaps a bit frightening in the game? (hint: he was half/part something)
4. In the original video game, "Disney Epic Mickey" there is a level called "Mickeyjunk Mountain". What attraction is it supposed to reference in "Disneyland"? Why does this mountain have the name it does? (hint: you could play a sport in it's real-world counterpart)
5. Name all four of the consoles that "Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two" has been released on so far.
6. There is a Disney Imagineer (in a variation of themselves) who was recently added to the storyline of a popular attraction in the "Magic Kingdom" at "Walt Disney World". Name this Imagineer.
7. Name the two actors in the "TRON" films that appeared in both movies. What 4 characters (total) do they play?
8. Name the director who is supposedly set to direct a film about the "Magic Kingdom".
9. Name all the "nicknames" of the elevators in "The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror" at "Walt Disney World".
10. What was the month, day and year the Hollywood Tower Hotel was struck by lightning?
11. What two attractions did the Disney Imagineers combine to test the concept for the "Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin" attraction?
12. At the "Disneyland" version of "The Haunted Mansion" attraction, what part of the mansion's facade has/had some signatures of Disney Imagineers on it?
Monsanto, which would also sponsor The House of the Future, and CircleVision 360.
Part machine.
The Matterhorn bobsled attraction at Disneyland. By the way - the sport you can play inside the Matterhorn is basketball. There's a half-court inside the mountain that the mountain climbers would use on their breaks :thumbsup:)
I'm gonna say Wii, Nintendo DS, WiiU, and 3DS.
Tony Baxter, who took half of the former Great Western River Expedition and transformed it into Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.
Jon Favreau.
Mad Tea Party and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride would be my two guesses.
Ya got me on this one...
Correct.
Correct. The Mad Doctor is part animatronic.
Correct. I believe there was something mentioned that they built the basketball court simply because Anaheim County would only allow a structure that tall to be built if it was a sports arena.
However, I am still looking for the second half of this question: "Why does this mountain have the name it does?" (referring to the name "Mickeyjunk Mountain" and what kind of things you would find there, hence it's name)
That would be half correct. The sequel to the "Disney Epic Mickey" video game has been released on the Nintendo Wii and the Wii-U. What other two consoles am I looking for?
Tony Baxter is definitely correct. To elaborate a bit, Tony is now apart of Big Thunder's storyline at the Magic Kingdom in Florida. His likeness is used to portray the founder and president of the Big Thunder Mining Company, Barnabas T. Bullion.
Correct.
Good guess! But again, half correct. Mad Tea Party is certainly one of the attractions. In fact, they used the ride vehicle from it. But what was the darkride they attached it onto for the test?
And finally... any guesses on these remaining few questions, folks?
