Rocketeer ride at MGM?

[Thrawn]

Thrawn, that is not exactly true. The Rocketeer came from a series of comic books. So there is more to the property. However, they are not widely known/available which again makes the property limited. I am not sure how many issues were made or if the total run only tells the same story of the movie and nothing more. If they were to somehow be rolled out to the masses with an anniversary edition of the movie, then maybe enough interest would be in place to make a ride. Otherwise I agree that there is not enough to go on to make a ride.

Wow, I didn't know that. Guess those comics weren't very popular.

The Rocketeer was a Disney film. It was released under Touchstone, I think.

Just checked my DVD to be sure...it was released under Walt Disney Pictures. It is a great film, too bad it didn't do well enough to have its own attraction.

Does anyone have pictures or video of The Rocketeer fly-over they used to do at the Studios?

Now that's just crazy talk! I don't even think that was a Disney movie....was it?

Neither were Indiana Jones and Star Wars. XD

I neat idea. I think it would be tough to make a new ride based on a movie 10-15 years ago.

esp one that bombed
