2[[caption-width-right:320:Where else could you go to celebrate something like that?]]
3
4A series of popular ads running since the late 1980s following a noteworthy accomplishment, almost always something in the sports industry (i.e., winning the UsefulNotes/SuperBowl), and involving one of the Ride/DisneyThemeParks, with the implication that the only thing that could possibly be ''better'' than such a crowning achievement is a trip to a Disney park. The ads went a little something like this:
5
6->''[AwardBaitSong-style version of "When You Wish Upon a Star" swells over a montage of whatever game Player has just won]''\
7'''Announcer:''' Player, you just won the BigGame! What are you going to do next?\
8'''Player:''' I'm going to Ride/{{Disney|ThemeParks}} [[Ride/WaltDisneyWorld World]]/[[Ride/{{Disneyland}} Land]] (depending on which part of the country the ad is broadcast in)!!!\
9''[pretty shot of Cinderella/Sleeping Beauty Castle (again, depending on the park) during the fireworks with the Walt Disney World/Disneyland logo shown as the song fades out]''
10
11Ah, there simply is nowhere like the Happiest Place On Earth... (it helps that the player in question [[MoneyDearBoy gets about $30,000 and a free trip out of it]]).
12
13The slogan originated during a November 1986 dinner between Disney CEO Michael Eisner and his wife Jane and the pilots Dick Rutan and Jeana Yeager, who had just completed a non-stop around-the-world flight. Jane Eisner asked what they were going to do next, to which they replied, "We're going to Disneyland." The Eisners latched onto the sentence as an ideal slogan, and Disney rushed a commercial into production. Featuring [[UsefulNotes/NationalFootballLeagueQuarterbacks New York Giants quarterback Phil Simms]], it ran two months later, immediately after Super Bowl XXI, and became ''instantly'' iconic. The slogan is still a popular StockPhrase/[[StockParodies Stock Parody]].
14----
15!!Examples:
16[[foldercontrol]]
17[[folder:Advertising]]
18* A 1997 spot for ''[[Series/WaltDisneyPresents The Wonderful World of Disney]]'' featured an announcer asking a boy what he'll do now that he's finished his homework. His response is "I'm going to the living room," and he sits down with his parents to watch [[Creator/AmericanBroadcastingCompany ABC]], which the said show airs on.
19* In 2006, a Disney Parks commercial aired weeks before the Super Bowl featured NFL players chanting the phrase [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bY75hnNzyk as a mantra during their training.]]
20[[/folder]]
21
22[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
23* There was a parody of this in the {{anime}} ''Manga/BoboboboBobobo'' where the main character at one point turns into a caterpillar, ends up becoming a cocoon, and later becomes a butterfly. The Narrator then pretty much entirely references this string of events, then asks "What are you gonna do next!?" to which he replies, "I'm going to Holy Guacamole Land!!"
24[[/folder]]
25
26[[folder:Comic Books]]
27* Probably related, since there wasn't a Disneyland yet: In the first ''ComicBook/{{Asterix}}'' album, a Roman legionary is commended and gets a free trip to the Circus Maximus in Rome.

Cut to a scene with the two of them and Jason's mom:
35-->'''Jason and Marcus:''' We're going to Disney World!\
36'''Andy:''' Oh you are, are you?
37* ''ComicStrip/GetFuzzy'':
38-->'''Rob:''' Bucky Katt! You just broke every lamp in the house! Where are you going now?

42* An early '70's plotline in ''ComicStrip/LilAbner'' involved Native Americans taking back the country from the white man. Although it actually [[OlderThanTheyThink predated the '80's ad campaign]] by some dozen or so years, the story included this exchange:
43-->'''Indian 1:''' [[TontoTalk I think I gung live in]] Disneyland!\
44'''Indian 2:''' I think you big fool! I gung live in a nightclub!!
45[[/folder]]

52'''Bakura:''' Well done, Zorc! [[AndThenWhat What are you going to do now]]?\
53'''Zorc:''' I'm going to Disney World!... And then I'm going to destroy it!
54** The WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue shows that Zorc couldn't destroy Disney World because it was too much fun. He destroyed [[TakeThat EuroDisney instead]].
55* Parodied in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BMgegut3UM the trailer]] for ''[[Franchise/StarWars George Lucas Strikes Back]]'' - now that ''Star Wars'' has made millions of dollars, George Lucas says he's going to Disneyland... to build a ride.

58[[/folder]]
59
60[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
61* ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'':
62** The Genie makes the FingerFraming gesture, like he was putting Aladdin in a TV frame, and asks, "You've just won the heart of the princess; what are you going to do next?" (as "When You Wish Upon a Star" swells in the background). Aladdin does not respond. While holding a script, Genie attempts to prompt him by saying, "Your line is, 'I'm going to free the Genie.'"
63** And of course, when Aladdin ''does'' set him free, Genie sports the "Walt Disney Theme Park Tourist" look. (Based on Robin Williams' appearance in the "Back to Neverland" film seen at what was then Disney-MGM Studios' "The Magic of Disney Animation" attraction)
64** In the stage show at California Adventure, after Genie is freed, he asks himself, "What are you gonna do next? I'm going to Disneyland!" (You know, since it's [[DontExplaintheJoke a short walk away]]...)

73'''Cyrus:''' We're going to Disneyland!

75* ''Film/HotShots'':
76-->'''Reporter:''' Hey, Topper Harley, [[NarratingtheObvious now that you've killed the bad guy and made the world safe for democracy]], what are you going to do to cash in on your newfound fame?\

78''[Harley is immediately given a large stack of wrapped cash, and a handshake, from a "[[CorruptCorporateExecutive suit]]", signifying payment for [[EnforcedPlug promoting the park]]]''
79* ''Film/InspectorGadget1999'':
80** A subversion occurs.
81--->'''Scolex:''' Good morning, [=RoboGadget=]. You have just been animated by the most complex computer technology in the world. What are you going to do now?\

84* In ''Film/{{Repossessed}}'', when the Satan-possessed Linda Blair escapes from the TV studio run by [[{{Expy}} Expies]] of Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker after trapping them in a horse costume and has had her plans for possessing people through the airwaves foiled by Leslie Nielsen, she says this line. ItMakesSenseInContext. Sort of.
85* ''Film/SavingMrBanks'': Amusingly {{subverted}}. When the aloof Mrs. Travers is invited to tour the Magic Kingdom with Walt Disney himself, her reaction amounts to "ThisIsGonnaSuck."
86* Inverted in ''Film/WelcomeToTheDollhouse'', where at the end of the movie Dawn does go to Disneyland with the school choir... but hates it.
87* ''Film/{{Zombieland}}'':
88-->'''Wichita:''' You just traveled across zombie infested America. What are you going to do now?\
89'''Little Rock''' Go to [[LawyerFriendlyCameo Pacific Playland!]]
90[[/folder]]
91
92[[folder:Literature]]
93* In the satirical self help book ''Kiss My Tiara'', in a chapter about the pleasures of female masturbation (along with its taboos and the scanty if not non-existent terms to refer to it), the author suggests to say "I'm going to Disneyland!" as a fun euphemism along with giving a new ring to all those commercials with a similar catchphrase.
94* The officially licensed novel ''[[ComicBook/XMen X-Men: Salvation]]'' has Iceman sit down in the middle of the street and announce that he's going to Disneyland after three days of near-continuous fighting against Magneto, the Brotherhood of Mutants, and all the unaligned mutants who came to Manhattan after Magneto took over the island has him completely exhausted both physically and mentally.

96[[/folder]]
97
98[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
99* ''Series/BillNyeTheScienceGuy'' "Magnets": An accomplished young woman is asked what she's going to do next. She replies, "I'm going to see 'Compass Man'."
100* In Season 2 of ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'', after Buffy learns that there's another Slayer now:
101-->'''Buffy:''' Maybe after this thing with Spike and the assassins is over, I could say, "Kendra, you slay, I'm going to Disneyland."
102* ''Series/BurnNotice'':
103-->'''Maddie:''' Why should we go to Disney World?\
104'''Sam:''' Because it's a magical kingdom with lots of witnesses and great security?

106* After Series/{{Ellen}} came out of the closet, she quipped "I'm going to Disneyland" when asked by a psychologist (played by Oprah Winfrey) what she planned to do next.
107* Played for TearJerker effect in ''Series/FallingSkies'', "Badlands". Pope is sitting by the bedside of the fatally-injured [[spoiler:Crazy Lee]], and asks where she would like him to take her when she gets out. She says [=Disneyland=], he replies he can take her there but can't go in. [[MoodWhiplash He got into a fight with Goofy]], and has been [[PersonaNonGrata banned for life]].
108* ''Series/{{Frasier}}'': In "Moon Dance" Frasier tells Roz that he's taking his son, Freddie, to Colonial Williamsburg for a week. Roz uses this trope to make fun of the choice of vacation destination.
109-->'''Roz:''' Hey, Frederick Crane, you've just finished the first grade, what are you gonna do now? ''(as Freddie)'' I'm going to Butterworld!
110* In ''Series/TheFreshPrinceOfBelAir'', after Will had won the first basketball game in Bel-Air Academy and ran over to the crowd, he shouted out, "I'M GOING TO DISNEYLAND!"

After receiving a $10,000 settlement for a slip and fall suit, he announces "I'm going to Disney World!" Grace notes how dumb this is, as she can have the payment frozen to pay the outstanding child support.
114* ''Series/InLivingColor'' parodied this twice.
115** The first spoof came after Clarence Thomas was confirmed as a Supreme Court justice despite a sexual harassment scandal almost derailing the effort. He shouts "I'm going to Girlie World!" -- which turns out to be a strip club.
116** The second spoof turns up at the end of the Music/MichaelJackson parody "Little Billy's Not My Lover", a send-up of the child molestation accusations leveled against him in 1993. An offscreen announcer asks what he's going to do now that his career faces ruin, and he replies, "I'm going to Thailand!" This was because in RealLife, he'd left for Thailand to launch the final leg of his Dangerous Tour just before the scandal went public.
117* Subverted and PlayedForHorror in an episode of ''Series/LawAndOrderSpecialVictimsUnit'', the VictimOfTheWeek jokingly conducts a mock interview with her classmate/friend Lisa [[HappierHomeMovie in a video]] provided by her mother.

123'''Mike:''' [[DisneyOwnsThisTrope All references to Disney World are the property of the Walt Disney Corporation.]]

125* Parodied in ''Series/ParkerLewisCantLose'': When Larry Kubiak finds out he has actually met his weight loss goals and can stay on the football team, Parker asks:
126-->'''Parker:''' So, Kube, what are you going to do now?\
127'''Kubiak:''' I'm going to ''eat'' Disneyland.

130* Many TGIF programs on [[Creator/AmericanBroadcastingCompany ABC]] had an episode (''Series/FullHouse'' and ''Series/StepByStep'' both had a two parter) where the main characters went to Disney World. Three such episodes were called "We're Going to Disney World!"
131* In the ''Series/ThunderInParadise'' episode "Blast Off", a reporter asks Spencer what he's going to do now that he's saved a Senator from assassination, and he responds with "I'm going to Disney World." It seems like a throwaway line at first, but a few scenes later Spencer gets a call from Disney, and he actually DOES go there, complete with a montage of Spencer and his daughter on various Magic Kingdom rides. (An easy scene to film, considering most of the series filmed in Disney World anyway)
132* In ''Series/WizardsOfWaverlyPlace'', after Justin wins the 12 ball tournament, he announces "I'm going to Volcano Land". Except that Volcano Land is where wizards are drained of their powers. Oops!
133[[/folder]]
134
135[[folder:Music]]
136* "Arrivederci, Cuomo" by the Capitol Steps:
137-->"Now that you have lost, where are you going?"\
138"Hey, I'm going to Disney World!"
139* The phrase appears in the Timbuk 3 song "Disneyland (Was Made for You & Me)" from their 1991 album Big Shot in the Dark, and the song "[[WritingAroundTrademarks Dizz Knee Land]]", a 1993 hit by Dada.
140[[/folder]]
141
142[[folder:Pro Wrestling]]
143* After Wrestling/DanielBryan and Wrestling/{{Kane}} won the WWE Tag Team Championships, they were seen bickering backstage, with Kane eventually walking off. A few seconds later, he reappeared on camera and threw Gatorade over Bryan. He then yells out exactly this and walks off proclaiming that he is the Tag Team Champions.
144* Spoken word for word by Wrestling/BoDallas upon winning the NXT championship. A week later, he is absent on the show, and cuts a promo live via satellite... from Disneyland.
145* Played with by longtime heel Larry Zbyskzo, who would often say he was going to "Larryland".
146[[/folder]]
147
148[[folder:Theater]]
149* After Hades goes all out to retain his title in ''Theatre/VillainsTonight'', the Fates decide to go on a Disney cruise... specifically, the one the show is playing on.
150[[/folder]]
151
152[[folder:Video Games]]
153* After you win the Backyard Football Championship in ''VideoGame/BackyardFootball'', a character always exclaims "I'm going to [[CaptainErsatz Walter Weasel World]]!"
154* The infamous ''VideoGame/EarthBound1994'' Player's Guide has the following near the end: "The question now is what this amazing young man will do next. Will he go to school? Visit Disneyland? Or will he be called upon to defend the Earth once more?"
155* In the beginning of ''VideoGame/LeisureSuitLarry7LoveForSail'':
156-->'''Interviewer:''' Leisure Suit Larry! You've just leapt from the 40th floor of a burning building! What are you going to do next?\
157'''Larry:''' I think I'm going to... take a cruise!
158* ''VideoGame/Persona5'': After taking President Okumura's heart, the Phantom Thieves decide to celebrate by going to Tokyo Destinyland, a very obvious {{Bland Name|Product}} version of Ride/{{Tokyo Disney|Resort}}land, complete with a castle in the background reminiscent of the Cinderella Castle. In addition, Ryuji is seen wearing bear ears akin to Mickey, Ann is wearing cat ears with a ribbon akin to Minnie, and Futaba is wearing rabbit ears akin to Goofy.
159* Spoofed at the end of both ''VideoGame/SpyroTheDragon1998'' and ''VideoGame/SpyroYearOfTheDragon'' as well as [[VideoGame/SpyroReignitedTrilogy their reimaginings]] with Spyro being interviewed and asked "What do you plan next?". The first case leads to a HereWeGoAgain. The second?
160-->'''Narrator:''' Spyro, you just defeated the Sorceress, rescued the dragon eggs, and restored freedom to the lost dragon worlds. What do you plan to do next? Have a nice vacation at [[VideoGame/Spyro2RiptosRage Dragon Shores]]? Hm?\
161'''Spyro:''' You're a real comedian, [[spoiler:Bentley]]. ''(both laugh)''
162* Karla Keller's [[http://www.errormacro.com/2008/06/tattoo_assassins_the_endings.php ending]] in the unreleased game ''VideoGame/TattooAssassins'' is a literal example of this trope.
163[[/folder]]

168[[/folder]]
169
170[[folder:Web Original]]
171* Nearly every episode of WebVideo/{{Smosh}}'s ''WebVideo/FoodBattle'' series end this way. A reporter runs towards whoever wins the battle, exclaims that they've won the Food Battle, and asks what they're going to do afterward. The very first episode actually has Ian proclaim that he's going to go to Disneyland, and the next installments turn ridiculous, such as the winner saying he's going to watch paint dry or play with Pogs.
172[[/folder]]
173
174[[folder:Western Animation]]
175* As Disney and Warner Bros. animation have had a... friendly rivalry over the years, ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' naturally took this on:
176-->'''Announcer:''' Hey, Yakko, Wakko and Dot! You've just finished another episode. What are you going to do next?\
177'''Yakko:''' We're going to... the bathroom.\
178''(alternately)'' We're going to... sleep.

191* From 1998-2001, Creator/CartoonNetwork would have a cartoon special called "The Big Game" which was a spoof of the UsefulNotes/SuperBowl that aired the night before that game and would pit two traditional cartoon rivals against each other with commentary by then-FOX duo Pat Summerall and John Madden. The final match (in 2001) pitted ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' rivals Bugs and Daffy. After the game ([[spoiler:which Daffy wins 37-31]]), Summerall briefly poked at both the catchphrase and the Disney-Warner Bros. rivalry with his comment.
192-->'''Pat Summerall:''' I know where he's going. He's going to Dis... *{{Beat}}* Wait. I'm not sure where he's going.
193* ''WesternAnimation/{{Doug}}'' has an ImagineSpot where he fantasizes he makes the winning field goal in a football game.
194-->'''Doug:''' I'm going to Funkytown!

201* ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'' "Historionics": After escaping an island run amok with [[MrAltDisney Uncle]] [[Creator/WaltDisney Wizzly's]] robot duplicates of historical figures, Brad asks what they should do next. Tuck eagerly replies, "I'm going to Wizzly World!" to which Brad responds, "Um... No."
202* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
203** "Sunday, Cruddy Sunday": After winning the Super Bowl, a football player shouts, "Woo! I'm going to Disneyland!", to which a travel agent replies, "Really? You know, I'm a travel agent and I've heard nothing but bad things."

216--> "Big deal! Death always went with the territory. See you in Disneyland!"
217* Bob Iger joked about this with Barbara Walters, suggesting that they go to Disneyland after they retire.
218* Before a Harlem Globetrotters game at the Anaheim Pond, one player -- jokingly offended that he wasn't the center of attention -- started to walk off the court. When the announcer asked where he was going, he said "I'm going to Disneyland!" (Which is also in Anaheim.)
