Why do they...

Movies, TV, music, and more. Here's the place to talk about anything Disney outside of the parks.

Why do they...

Post by kronk's angel » Feb Tue 08, 2005 6:30 pm

Why do they...

Say, in HM, "They'll be expecting me. I'll see you all a little later."

I don't see any loss of continuity in the ride without him saying that...

For me, it just doesn't make much sense...?
No, no... He's got a point.

Well, our ghost host leaves us on our own for a time and we go through the ride with no narration until he reappears. Also, he leaves just as the ghosts really start to come out and we see him in the graveyard scene if my memory is on top of things tonight. So it does help add to the story just to keep you from thinking about "what happened to him?"...

the ghost host shows up in the graveyard scene? which one is he?

i never really gave it any thought as to why he leaves us, probably because the party in the dining/ball room is fun. i would want to join too.

They obviously had nothing to say for the parts where he dissapears or at least didn't need to have anything said so it just made sense for him to announce his departure and return rather than just have silence and people wonder what happened to the audio.

He leaves us at the ballroom scene. I believe it's partly that there's nothing to talk about but moreso the fact that he goes and parties with his ghost friends for a while in the ballroom.

He went to the Party to chill with his fellow ghosts who were expecting him. :lol:

Thanks for the responses!

That makes sense -- we were supposed to be looking for him. It does make the ride a little more disquieting to not have the narrator, I just couldn't see the point of saying, in effect, "see y'all later!"

He's in the ballroom? :o Does anyone know which one he is?

Is there anyone with clothes or something similar to the hanging skelton in the elevator (can't remember)?

There are lots of things like this which, while at the parks I kinda go, "what the...?' but then breeze on and only later start wondering...
No, no... He's got a point.

Heh, the Ghost Host never actually makes an appearance in the Mansion, but I think everyone covered the storyline purpose of the "I'll see you all a little later" line... our host has the pressing business of partying, gallavanting and carrying-on to see to!
