I'm just curious... Of these two hardly ever mentioned attractions in Walt Disney World.. Which of these two do you personally believe is better?
The reason I'm comparing these two together is mainly the fact that they are both circle-vision films that are explaining the history and cultures of Canada and China, so almost the same concept.
The difference: O' Canada's host is Martin Short. Making the film a little less, quote on quote, "boring" with a tad bit of humor and less of a typical historical narrator. Making the film (in my opinion) a bit more entertaining to watch. By all means, even if the humor doesn't really get to you or others in the theatre, at least he isn't monotone throughout the entire film. He makes the film more enjoyable and modern, to me.
Reflections of China is basically the same thing, but without a celebrity from their country as the narrator. (That I am aware of). Making the film solely focusing on the educational point of view on China rather than the modern "edutainment" point of view. Heck, even the monotone narrator that opens O' Canada tells Martin Short that he may relocate to France* where they appreciate his style. Which I find hilarious.
People usually start their trip around the World Showcase starting from Mexico, which is a bummer. Because by the time they get to Canada the guests are tired and exhausted, making the O' Canada film not really enjoyable, giving the fact that you have to stand.
Now I have nothing against Reflections of China. I just prefer the updated style they use in O' Canada. What are y'alls opinions on this topic?
