10 Years Ago Today...

[mansionfan84]

The future became the past...

R.I.P. Horizons.

 

[mansionfan84]

Woops! Got a little over-nostalgic... The anniversary is actually tomorrow :brick:

Kidding... kinda... maybe... :lol:

If we can dream it, then we can do it,
yes we can, (yes we can.)
If we can dream it, then we can do it,
yes we can, (yes we can.)
Have you ever looked beyond today, into the future?
Picture you're in a world, we've yet to see.
The wonder of finding new ways,
that lead to the promise of brighter days.
Have you ever dreamed the dreams of the children?
Just imagine the magic, their minds can see. (if we can dream it). Horizons, all shining and new, (shining and new). Horizons, where dreams do come true (they do come true).
And it will be, a future filled with care.
For you and me, a world we all can share.
For today holds the challenge to make this world a better place to be.
New Horizons, for you and for me.

Horizons, we miss you! You were a true Disney and EPCOT Center Classic. It is a pity you were not treated as such.

Hey Jenn! Jenn! Look Jenn, I'm flyin'! Why don't you try?

Hey Jenn! Jenn! Look Jenn, I'm flyin'! Why don't you try?

What if you just float away?

What you've just seen are the building blocks for the future up ahead.
And while it may look fantastic, remember, it's all possible...

I keep trying to choose my own ending to this thread, but keep getting outvoted by the others....:lookaroun

Great ride. One of the best pieces of theme park entertainment ever.

Many was the time I was by myself and would let the ride pick my ending. More often than not I got desert. :lol: I would also always try and see around the partitions on either side of me to see which ending others chose.

I was always happy when my ride vehicle was in the middle of the IMAX screen and I got to fly over the microchip.

The fake shrimp in the shrimp cocktail you could see in the window of undersea eatery always made me hungry. :lookaroun (then again, I'm pretty much always hungry. Back when I was riding Horizons it was really ridiculous).

Sometimes the smell of oranges could be overwhelming. I remember a couple of rides when you could anticipate the little, off in the distance orange grove because the smell was so powerful.

Just a fantastic immersive theatrical experience from start to finish. I wonder if they'll ever make another ride like this.

I'm having the same problem with Davey, Tommy and Scott!

Tommy wants Space...

...Scott wants Sea...

And Davey just wants CAKE!?

:hammer:

Y'all need to stop it.

My boss is going to wonder why I'm crying at my desk.
