 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Timekeeper, also known as From Time to Time or Le Visionarium, was a CircleVision 360 Film attraction produced for the Disney Theme Parks in 1992, shown at Disneyland Paris, Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom and Tokyo Disneyland. The attraction takes the form of a demonstration of a time machine created by mad robot scientist The Timekeeper (Robin Williams). To share time travel with a wider audience, the Timekeeper also designed a flying camera robot named Nine-Eye (Rhea Perlman), so named for her 9 cameras that provide a 360 degree experience.9-Eye is sent through time by The Timekeeper, so that she can send back the surrounding images as she records them in whichever era she ends up finding herself in. When sending Nine-Eye to the Exposition Universelle in 1889 in Paris to see Jules Verne (Michel Piccoli) and H. G. Wells (Jeremy Irons). When Verne scoffs at Wells' ideas of time-travel, he encounters 9-Eye and ends up hitching a ride into the modern world.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })At Disneyland Paris and Tokyo Disneyland, the attraction was replaced with Buzz Lightyear's Astro Blasters, while at Magic Kingdom it was replaced with Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor.

 Butt-Monkey: A portion of WDW's pre-show depicted how 9-Eye was tested for time travel — by being sent down a waterfall, sent into a barn full of explosives, and then being tied to the top of a launching spaceship. She also takes a bit of abuse during the main show as well, such as being nearly eaten by dinosaur.

 Audience Participation: Subverted. After sending Verne back to the exposition, the Timekeeper asks for volunteers from the audience to send with 9-Eye into the future, and the ones ultimately selected for the trip are a fictional tourist family.

 Beethoven Was an Alien Spy: The ending of the film has Verne and Wells riding in a functional flying time machine. When asked how they got it, they only reply "In the future, anything is possible."
