Tiki Architecture. Tour deTiki. Tiki Talk: The Enchanted Tiki Blog - Part 3. Ahmet Zappa and Michael Wilson’s Polynesian Adventure Inspired by Disneyland’s ENCHANTED TIKI ROOM. Ahmet Zappa and writing partner Michael Wilson are said to be inspired by Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room for their action-adventure script with a Polynesian backdrop. Of course, a Disney spokesperson told Vulture that the project is not a direct adaptation of the attraction; it simply shares an interest in Polynesian mythology. But the synergistic possibilities are undeniable, and Disney has been understandably encouraged by the ride-to-film success of the Pirates of the Caribbean series. The studio announced at Comic-Con that Guillermo del Toro would spearhead a reboot based on The Haunted Mansion. Hit the jump for a bit of background on the Tiki Room and a video of the animatronic musical within.
Here’s the Disneyland pitch for the Enchanted Tiki Room: Enchanted Tiki Room is a 15-minute celebration of island romance and wonder performed by a flock of talking birds and their fantastic floral friends. Eh, it’s no less ripe for adaptation than the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. Tiki Central Forums - Forum Index.
