Its about time they got rid of that video... it was a cool video back in the day but overtime it kept getting cheesier and cheesier... It looked like a simulator more than a actual ride through space with the fake head whipping... I can't wait to see what they come up with for this new one.

Me too. Mario Lopez was in it if I recall correctly. That was back in the day when theming meant something.
Yes Mario Lopez was in it. It was also painful to watch, with fake MTV music videos and a shrill news woman. Anyone who had to stand there and watch it on loop in the pre-fastpass age would never lament for it.

is there a reason you visit the parks during peak season?
I try to arrange trips during the slower ( if you call them slower now ) seasons, this year I'm going in Sept. for example, it worked out for me & my wife. But there were years earlier when my son was in school and the only times we could go as a family were during peak school vacation times, and there were other times when I could only get coverage of my business during busy seasons. It would be ideal if life would be easy and cooperate, but you take it as it comes. Disney is great any time you can get it into your life busy season or not.. :D

There is a new video however it's just before the lines merge not where the old one is. Yes the old one is still playing back at the old screen. :cyclops:

It is easy to miss. Go to 2:30 in the video and keep your eyes peeled...



Honestly, I am not happy to see it go away. I notice it (and the "holographic ships") every time we walk through the queue because I spent so much time standing in the line there as a kid/teen. I liked that they "enhanced" the queue without stripping out the original stuff. It's not like there isn't plenty of room!

If they want to "enhance" something at Space Mountain, why not do something about that stinking hallway after the Control Tower? Benches at least? It's closterphobic, it's cramped, the windows are too high off the ground...and there is no entertainment! Why not some TVs and a fun little video?


The best thing about this video is the little kid in the beginning who says: "Daddy this is so fun!"
Brought me back to taking my kid for the first time...that's what Disney is all about to me.

I miss the news channel and fake fed-ex commercials. Also the Shannon Dougherty looking girl (Was she even in the FL version or only Disneyland?)
