On that last fall, almost to the ground, I did, and when I did, the Spiderman ride became a favorite! I love that ride, and once per trip is NOT enough for me!

There is something about the 3D technology that makes it hard to really let go and believe. I think that is why they are going to 4D, to compensate.

Yeah, Spiderman was truly revolutionary in the way it utilized the “time” concept. ;)

Ehhh, seems like standard movie theme x from Warner Brothers to me.

Okay. That was REALLY harsh. I apologize, I've heard it from CD, not from experience. So I take that back.

But have the Soarin theme, then top it off at the end with Listen to the Land.

Oh, I would just cry.

I was actually quite surprised to hear it myself, when I got the phone call. But one of our MousePlanet staffers called me from the Animal Kingdom to give me the scoop. If his source is who he says it is, then the information it pretty good. If the cell phone static distorted the info, then the story could be wrong. He's due back home tomorrow, so I'm planning to email him just to make sure that I have the information correct. If it's not right, I'll be publishing an correction or clarification in next week's Update.

maybe we can compromise? Have "Listen to the Land" slowly blend into "Soarin'" in the queue, and then have the post show have "Listen to the Land"? I'll call Michael on speed-dial to give him my recommendation...Eisner+Kyle=TIGHT!

Naw, it won't work. Too many people would then complain that Eisner was just making another cheap sequel!:D We have to start thinking about mounting some bear heads on the walls of the theater.... I'll get back to you.

What if they re recorded a bot of Listen to the land and worked it in? It was hardly a long song instrumentally. Kind of like they did with Baroque in Light Magic?

ok, i have skinned over this thread and others and trying to figure something out.................... i havent ridden DCA Soarin and im curious about the theater. Once it (meaning you chair) rises to 40 some odd feet, is it suspended from the ceiling so your feet dangle?

and 1 more thing, is there more than 1 viewing theater for wait time in the que line?

thanks

Ooooh...I loved the part of Baroque Hoedown in Light Magic...sounded so awesome! If they changed Disney's Electrical Parade to have fully instrumented music like that, I'd actually be able to stand the parade! I'd def. go for a remixed verse from Listen to the Land in the Soarin' theme!

Yes, your feet dangle when you are suspended...it is like a giant hang-glider with a seatbelt as your only restraint. I'm not quite sure of what you are exactly asking w/ your second question, but there are two theatres that hold 108 guests each at a time, and there are 3 preshow areas (not really rooms) for each theatre. The ride cycle is approximately 5 minutes, so 216 guests (for both theatres) cycle through ever 5 minutes. 2000-2400 guests per hour experience this attraction.

Is there a spot for you to store your backpack during the ride?
I usually carry a backpack when I am in the parks. '

Thanks!!

(editted to fix silly typo of care to carry.)

Hey ITSCNav!

If you liked that, have you heard the Dreamlights score from TDL? GIves a whole new life to Baroque and other MESP (& Spectro) themes!

I dont think it will happen SOTUSA will happen? Because i heard it was going to be the same as DCA and then 2 years it will get a new film. So does anyone have a link to the music in the ride?

Thanks,

Sorry. Been off the boards for a while.

No, it wasn't Brad Rex. It was a company insider, but not from Imagineering. I should have known better, even though the source is well-connected throughout the company.
