The Spirited 11th Hour ...

They just threw spectro away.... it didnt rot.

Disney decided it did not want to maintain it so they smashed it with an excavator and sold it for metal scrap.

And I am sure the lighting levels in person are much lower than the video making the screens blend more seamlessly with the physical sets... This ride is amazing. I would gladly give up our Pirates Cliff Notes Version in favor of gutting that whole area of Adventureland and putting in this version of Pirates with restaurant, pirates village and all...Let Disneyland and Disneyland Paris have the original and upgraded original versions.. and let the Magic Kingdom have something new and amazing for the 50th Anniversary!!

it sorta reminds me of Epcot's Mexico pavilion.
The restaurant right before the ride starts.

Mark fuhrman. A rather racist LAPD detective that investigated the O.J. Simpson killings.

I havent seen the movie, did Captain America say that he got the reference?

Seems like some are trying to find anything to be picky about with the Shanghai rides ...

I really hope the next electrical parade will be similar to Spectro.

The Shanghai Disney special is going to air on Disney Channel,Disney XD, and Disney Jr in a few minutes. It starts at 8:00pm

Omg what the hell is with that voiceover during the special

They could have gotten a better host. I would recommend watching the Gala Opening since it's the same but without the narrator.

My guess is they are trying to appeal to children since it was on the Disney channel.

You can watch the original video on YouTube, but turn on the CC. It is hilarious. They try to translate the Mandarin as if they were speaking English. So whatever they say in Mandarin, it is phonetically translated into English. The results had me laughing hard.

 

[PorterRedkey]

Personally, I liked the help with what was going on, especially after watching it in Mandarin. However, the host left a lot to be desired.

Good job "Friends of the Parks" guys, you saved the place where Bears fans tailgate and denied us midwesterners of the Lucas Museum. Hope you're proud of yourselves

Lucas officially pulled it this morning. Museum will be built in California according to press release today.

They sure taught us a lesson. How did these people ever get to hold any sort of power? I have news for them - no one cares about the Field/Shedd/Adler Complex. This may have actually inspired some kids...

Field and Shedd are easily the most popular attractions in Chicago. That's why the Lucas Museum was going to be the new neighbor. The real skewed priorities here are the desire to protect a Bears tailgating parking lot and the old convention center. Friends of the Park(ing Lot) picked the stupidest hills to die on.

I assure you SOMEBODY in Chicago does, It's just they have a vision of building luxury condominiums on the site the museum would have occupied,

As a private pilot it's hard to forget the city which Bulldozed Meigs field overnight (which was an ACTIVE AIRPORT AT THE TIME) so that a 'connected' developer could build on the land, which stranded a bunch of airplanes which no longer had a runway to take off from.

In it's place there is THIS

Notably the Tuskegee Airmen Society used to introduce inner city kids to Aviation every summer at Meigs Field

Well Done Chicago AGAIN!

Those are fighting words.

Shedd Aquarium inspires future marine biologists, no? Does the Field Museum not inspire future geologists, palaeontologists, astronomers, zoologists, and archaeologists? To be fair, though, nobody likes nerds, and that is an absolute statement that's true for everybody.

Kill it! Kill it with fire! How is this still a thing yet they let Spectro rot?

Nuke it from orbit it's the only way to be sure.

I'm ticked this project was pulled because I live in San Francisco.

Traffic here is getting ridiculous! Especially if you need to cross a bridge. And sticking this thing on TI... seriously... WTH are you guys thinking! Bridge traffic is already bad. This won't help.

And by the time this sucker's even open... Warriors new stadium will be open... Salesforce Benioff Tower of Power will be open... more new luxury condo complexes... more new luxury apartment complexes... with the same crappy crowded pot-holed surface streets and lousy MUNI transit system!

Geez Louise, Georgie!

Why not suck it up and put your stupid museum out at The Ranch and deal with traffic woes up close?

Oh, that's right. The wealthy Marinites (of which you are one) would sue your Jedi posterior in court and win!!

Yeah, yeah. It sucks to be you.
