Poll: Best Shooting Attraction in Orlando

[flynnibus]

Gotcha.

IMO its still streets ahead of the queue lines in other Orlando shooters.

I love the creativity of the props in TSMM. Maybe it shouldn't be just a big switchback room.. but from the flooring, what is in the viewfinder slides... the lincoln logs.. etc. All very well done. Of course Potato head is extremely ambitious (but no idea why WDW refuses to run him in interactive mode). Shy of being portrayed as in Andy's room itself or maybe inside a toy box.. I like what they did in there. The props make up for the lack of a setting.

Buzz... I think the style is fitting, and of course buzz himself is neat... but it is just stickered walls.

I'll qualify a bit more.. lets look at the USF version... lighting is bad in the camera making it seem darker.. but the prime color schemes come through..View attachment 44367View attachment 44368


Things to note...
1) the light level and light temperature
2) the number of desks and overall density of things in the room
3) how many controls and objects are on the main console
3) the big screen itself being segmented
4) What is in the ante-wings under the walkways
5) The material finishes in use on the floor and columns

Now lets look at some grabs from the movie..

What stands out immediately?
1) The lack of the 'sterile' cool lighting of the whole room... in both color temp, light sources, and overall lighting levels
2) The density of the work area in terms of people/tables/busy
3) The finishes... in the movie it's more chrome, shine, translucency... in USF it's painted silver, black and white.
4) The room is more square and lacks the arcs and curves of the movie set
5) The set is generally sparse and lacks prop density and all the elements that surrounded the main desk area

The result is the room comes off as
- small, 'empty', and the materials look like cheap knock offs

Now the coffee break room looks a ton better.. a long with the figures. But the HQ room from the film is just so ambitious... it makes the USF version look that much more cheap.

Still very cool they tried to do it.. but the execution was a bit lacking IMO.

The lighting and lack I people - I always assumed it was night. All the people were back home sleeping.
