What Attractions Do We Miss?

Post by IndyandMarion » Sun Jan 23, 2011 11:30 am

I don't know if we've done this before, but what do you miss from Disney Parks. We'll go through all of the parks if needed and it can be anything.

Personally:
20K, Alien Encounter, Timekeeper. The old spiel for TTA. The Walter/Jeremy versions of Spaceship Earth. The Living Seas.

Space mountain music... The retro version.


"A little swordplay, now and then, keeps my mind off sheep!"

"You're messing with my Zen thing, man."

"Dreams are as portals,
flat visions of misty places,
fragments bound below my surface,
but I can write dreams,
they flow from me,
inscribed but now unbound,
I touch them,
and they are real,
and they are real."

I miss the old style Innoventions, where on my fifteenth birthday (1996), I first heard how someday, someone was going to take the (then) current CD player (all the rage in 1996) and put a blue laser in it, making it so that same disc could hold more information than I could conceive at that time.

Had I been smart, every cent I made at my first job a couple years later would have gone into Samsung stock.


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

In the parks, it would have to be the Timekeeper. But outside the parks it would be the Adventurers Club. Kunglaloosh!
