Soarin' Expansion and new Soarin' Around the World film

Ouch

He wasn't supposed to fall.

He wasn't supposed to fall.

I would hope not.

He wasn't supposed to fall.

Hence the ADR line "ugh. I'm okay."

Oh, and of course the pyro was CGI too

I think the original was vastly superior, really added up to more than the sum of its parts. This one was great, but just doesn't quite reach that level.

I'm sure that there are plenty of scenes that are already 'in the can'. Why can't Soarin be set up like Star Tours? There would would always be the element of surprise, not knowing which adventure or country you were about to see. You could still be treated to Soarin Over California from time to time!

Oh my lord.. I had to look it up cuz I never heard that. That is the one of the funniest things I've ever heard!!! (Around 7:18 for anyone who never heard this too)

I never understood why a lot of attractions couldn't be like that... Particuraly Mickey's Philharmagic!! The technology is there, it just requires a bit more effort and imagination. Which I guess would require more $$$....... Sooo... I guess there's the answer.

I read ADR on a Disney site and think Advanced Dining Reservations

I like how the pyro for the epcot ending takes place in the parking lot, yeah cause that happens...

Would have been nice if they recorded "we go on" With the fireworks, the torches, and pavilions all nicely lit up.

The new one definitely fits Epcot better but I still like the California version.

Sounds like my feelings about Test Track 2.0

Just and FYI: I just posted a new "Soarin' Around The World" video in 4K last night for anybody that is interested.

Watched the first few seconds, then decided to stop because we're going to WDW in 3 months and I want it to be a surprise. Looks great, though!

Nice watermark

Thanks Martin!

I always put so much work into those watermarks so I'm glad someone finally noticed them! ;-)

Is it just me or does the entire Taj Mahal scene look 100% CGI?

Supposedly it is.

Far and away the best version of this I've seen. Well done.

It's a bit hard to tell though, did they CGI out the Epcot parking lot?

Thanks for posting that.

That CGI looks horrible. Really horrible. So horrible that I have to wonder if that moron George Lucas was somehow involved.

I hope I'm wrong, but I cannot see how it will look any less fake on the big screen. I guess I'll know in a couple of weeks.

Maybe. They want you to leave the real world behind ha ha....Wait a minute....We're going around the world.
