Oh so true... the things that`d make a show go 101 for qualities sake. Not any more. It really hit me when SGE was allowed to operate with neither laser cannon shooting. An integral part of the plot and they were allowing guests in...Sigh....once upon a time there was a cool notion called show quality control.
Once upon a time....

There again, this is the place that kept an A100 AA frozen and clearly on show to use the theatre for meet and greet. :fork:

Maybe we should form "The Broken Effects Ranters Society"
Our motto:
"We'd be crying, but that effect's not working right now."

Darn, I was just about to mention D-Troops--you beat me to it.I thought D-Troops had already come and gone...?
Let's face it. Thing Seas with Nemo and Friends is nothing but a cheap, tacked-on "plussing" refurbishment of the former Living Seas and not a true real new attraction. The entire cheap design and appearance makes it clear that this was never designed from the beginning on but added much later. The jellyfishes for example are soo cheap, they are not disney but more like a county fair ride. The angler fish was nice, in fact it was the only good part of an less than thrilling..what? C-Ticket? And the management is not very caring for an attraction that was no big hit anyway. I love Finding Nemo but this beautiful movie should be honored in a true E-Ticket attraction.
....In MK.
Or DHS
Or AK.
Not EPCOT.....
To be honest, I really think a Nemo integrated Living Seas could have worked. The problem is WDI went too much with the cute, whimsical aspect instead of the more serious, educational approach, and as a result, Nemo took over. There was definitely a chance for a nice balance between the two, a way to revitalize The Living Seas by bringing in Nemo while at the same time not letting Nemo swim wild and transform the pavilion completely.
Instead of balance, what we got was a complete disregard to the original purpose and ideals behind The Living Seas and EPCOT Center, reducing what was once a very informative, inspiring, and futuristic pavilion into what is essentially a Fantasyland style ride and play area.
Frankly...I agree with everything you just said! There.
:lol:
Besides, we all know that the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage is the REAL attraction!
:sohappy:
Sadly this happened to the entire park over a decade ago. What we got with Seas was the best to be hoped for - the alternatives were a shuttered ride, gutted preshow and stagnating pavilion, or worse another private events building.Instead of balance, what we got was a complete disregard to the original purpose and ideals behind The Living Seas and EPCOT Center, reducing what was once a very informative, inspiring, and futuristic pavilion into what is essentially a Fantasyland style ride and play area.
