News Incident at Spaceship Earth today (3/16/19)

It's supposed to be Jobs, but the Woz AA does the work

Steve Jobs never moved. I've always complained about that. That was the worst implemented show scene in all of SSE's history. I've seen better show scenes at the Enchanted Villiage that Jordan's furniture puts on every year.

Seriously? Dang I feel like an idiot now. All of those ride throughs and I always thought he was typing on his keyboard

A bit off topic but that is most likely Steve Wozniak in the garage, not Steve Jobs. Woz was the real brains behind designing their first computers.

"In 1976, Wozniak completed the Apple I design. He alone designed the hardware, circuit board designs, and operating system for the computer. " From Wiki.

I always assumed that was Woz.
This article seems to concur.

Updated – 10/5/11 Steve Jobs passed away today. He had a massive influence on our society in general and perhaps Disney and it’s fans even more so. I think Steve Jobs in many ways is a modern day Walt Disney. His image is so closely tied to that of his company, and he has […]

I always thought it was Woz too, but I was corrected once and told it was Jobs. I was also told that it was really a representation of both of them and for that matter a representation of all the SV Pioneers.

I don't think there's any reason, other than bowing to Jobs' greater fame, that the figure depicted would have been "both of them".

Wait, he was found?

I stopped checking the thread a long whil ago because it was annoying and there was literally no news on it anyway, so I don’t know what else happened since

I really want to know what happened with Buzzy. If someone wants to update me, I know it's the wrong thread, but . . .

He's really just "a guy tinkering in his garage." It's left up to the guests to decide who he represents. Obviously, we all think it's Jobs and/or Woz. People that know Apple's history know that Woz was the one doing the hardware and coding; Jobs more so the selling.

You might notice the AA is wearing glasses, despite looking like Woz, for example.

Nothing is yet confirmed, but yesterday Patrick Spikes uploaded to YouTube a video reiterating his denial of involvement and telling his account of his interactions with the police in the matter.

to anybody familiar with the apple story, that's totally woz...
framed to look like either jobs or woz and meant to represent all pc pioneers tinkering, including bill

I don't think there's any reason, other than bowing to Jobs' greater fame, that the figure depicted would have been "both of them".

jobs and diz brass were tight, but... the man was running apple. nuff said.
... would have been interesting to see what may have come from that relationship

... would have been interesting to see what may have come from that relationship

We did! Remember when Jobs started cleaning up the menu in MK?

I rode IASW yesterday morning and 1/2 of the dolls were not working. I notified a castmember who didn't seem to care so I found an area manager and she said it had already been called in - yet they were still loading the ride

Spring break

Spring break

no excuse for bad show but I know disney just doesn't care anymore.

no excuse for bad show but I know disney just doesn't care anymore.

Both of these statements are 100% true. Bad show never used to be acceptable, but I see it everywhere now.

 

[backwoodsfarm]

Did you tell any CM? We had a ride on SM a few years ago that was sub-optimal due to ALL the AA's being inactive (read "slumped over like they were dead"). Since it was early in the day, when we told the CMs, they said something like we were the first to tell them this and that someone must have forgotten to turn on the various circuits powering the AAs.

The ride was down and no AA working due to a blew hydraulic line. We were on the ride when it blew. Our shirts got ruined with fluid all over them. We were comped FP and 2 new shirts at any Disney store.

Definitely agree, but it's reality. Spring break crowds are intense and frankly dumping out the queue and closing the ride down would lead to far more issues and operational challenges I'd imagine.

It may be time to test out the WestWorld style AI robots and pray that they don't become self aware.

Friend, I hate to tell you this, but every AA across every park is dead. They aren't real people. They aren't alive.

Except Haunted Mansion

Sounds like window girl got her revenge for being sealed in her space station for 25 years and decided to mess the ride up

Is window girl still there?
