New at Epcot - The Soarin interactive experience

[loaloa]

There is something new at Epcot in the Land pavillion, it's a new interactive experience located at the Soarin' attraction, and the disney and more blog have pictures of it.

from the press release:
Disney Imagineers used immersive graphics in a first-of-a-kind experience to engage and entertain Epcot guests at Soarin’ – one of the top-rated attractions at Walt Disney World.

The interactive group game combines large video screens and leading-edge motion detection technology that encourages children and adults to move and play together to create and manipulate different scenes from nature and other exciting settings.

when i went july 5th, they had it. In my opinion, it is a very fun and exciting activity for the guests to to. It sure beats just waiting there twiddling your thumbs, and with the 2 hour wait, there has to be something to do other than stare at the walls. It was a smart thing to do, escpecially on this specific attraction. :ROFLOL:

I heard about this when it first was announced, but I didn't see pics of it until now. Looks like fun!

Oh, and welcome to the boards, loaloa.

I'd never be able to participate in the queue games. My mind is always too caught up in the queue music to concentrate on anything else. I'd love to find a list of songs in that loop.

I had no idea this was going to be this cool! What a great idea. It must keep guests entertained while they wait in the long lines to get on the attraction. This is just awesome.

Yeah pretty old news but fun nonetheless.

Eh.

Not that I've seen it in person, but...eh.

I'm sure it's fun, but when I last visited in February I got the impression that the environmental screens were quite popular with the guests.

That's all various film themes. One of my friends has a full list and I'll ask him for it. From memory, it includes:

Air Force One (Jerry Goldsmith)
Medicine Man (Jerry Goldsmith)
Rich and Famous (Georges Delerue)
Out of Africa (John Barry)
Space Camp (John Williams)
Far and Away (John Williams)
Apollo 13 (James Horner)
The Right Stuff (Bill Conti)
