Mine Ride Construction Update

[DisneyConstruction23]

Lets make this perfectly clear....As I stated before I said that the animatronics look amazing and they do but due to them installing them as we were working (As I state) I have yet to see any of the main character moving. I have seen a few of the animals and they look perfect. TO make it seem like I said everything will be the best ever is a tad wrong. If they characters are anywhere close to the animals this will easily be the best ride in MK animatronics wise. I cannot assume they would make the animals look so realistic and not do the same (motion wise) for the main characters. So please if you are going to quote me or use what I say then do it correctly.

Didn't you say they look better than Ursula? Serious question I'm not being an a$$ I can't remember.

Yes but I was meaning what I had seen...the animals to me moved so perfectly without and hiccups etc. so that is why I said wait until you see the rest because honestly why would they put so much work in the minor details *animals*

Well based on these posts...

Unfortunately that I cannot say with exact detail, but a lot more than just snow white moves (do not forget wild life, the dwarfs, possibly rocks in the mine or mine carts *cannot give specific ex.* etc.)

Roughly the length of the Mummy ride in Universal being that they have put so much time into the interior scenes etc. if I had to guess (Again have not seen it running, but do know that they have a lot of different technological advances to slow down and speed up the mine cart for different areas.) and the interactive Que looks amazing as of now...I am excited to see how the guests enjoy it. Also if you thought Ursula in the LM ride was good, you ain't seen nothing yet.

In particular the bolded parts of the quotes, you seem to have knowledge that these characters will have movement, but now you say you haven't seen any of the main characters move? I'm quoting you fully and directly. The reason for the specifics is that as Disney fans we don't want to be set up thinking one way for something that is not definite.

I like the first picture on that page with the piece of grass draped over the railing.

Any idea of the see-through trees are real or fake variety?

So, and I quote, " Ursula has nothing on them", the animals are higher quality AA's than Ursula? Lol come on man.

Those hiccups in movement are due to Newton's Laws of Motion which means what you saw was small, limited movement.

I have said it once and I will say it again, the animatronics used on this ride are well worth the wait and construction time.

I did not see a lot of them in motion due to us working as they were installing them, but of the ones I did see in motion Ursela has nothing on them.

So what is it because you are all over the place with your quotes.

You are completely and I stand by my statements, glad u took time to get them for me. You can honestly tell me that a ride will have amazing animal animatronics and nothing else? Just use common sense thats all I ask

Nice pic. I hope they put in some nice greenery to hide the base of those trees.

So I'm an idiot. But does the faux grass stick into the green matting already down, or how is it secured? It can't be that easy, right? I mean, they couldn't knock out all the faux grassing in one day, could they?

The predrop reduces tension on the lift chain. It has nothing to do with making the ride less scary.

I never said that was the intent, just the result. Shorter drop = less scary. That is how I look at that.

Is the railing at the top of that last picture temporary?

Yes.

 

[muteki]

Yes.

Good thing they are not building this in Disneyland

Dang I just lost a lot likes and posts. Lol

 

[WildcatDen]

You do realize how insane saying the minor animal characters from 7DMT are better AA's than the main character of mermaid is right?

I think all he is saying is that the animals movement is smooth and not jerky. Speaking of which, Holy Shnikeys, what about the bear, at the Sochi closing ceremony. WOWZA.

Dang I just lost a lot likes and posts. Lol

I don't keep track of the post count and like count, but I suspect several of us lost likes and posts this morning... LOL.

The dwarfs will be one of the best audio animatronics in the park. Not all of them though. The cave does have a lot of sparkle, I felt like a little too much but the kids will love it. Thats all.
