Why would the soarin' have the same visuals of California. There is absolutely no resemblince between FL, and CA. Disney will probably change all the visuals.

It's due to budget issues....

Shouldn't even be about Florida. Should have to do with the Land, instead of a particular state, and not man-made landmarks that kinda kill symbiosis.

The video will not change except for the end, cause there's nothing really here in Florida, like major landmarks wise, except for Kennedy Space Center.

Well Soarin isn't bound to just one state, it could span the whole world.
I realize that it was a publically funded thing and all, but... why couldn't they use something from the Over America series? That was the one that PBS did where they had the aerial footage of whatever region the PBS station was in - mostly state by state, but in some cases it was by region.
That, and there is a ton of Aerial footage in Imax. It would be interesteing if they picked up a couple of those and had different versions throughout the day.

All I have to say is that it is still gonna be a great ride. However I think it will be weird to see stuff from CA, on the ride. Some things really are not religated to CA. Like the F-16 flight, but the Golden Gate Bridge, now that is another story. (Did you know that paint crews continually paint that bridge. Once they finish they start all over again on the other side.) Maybe Flordia people could help fund a new set of visuals for the ride.
Is Soarin actually Omnimax?
I forget the exact differences, I do know that Omnimax is rotated 90 degrees so that the image size can be larger. I don't know if the Omnimax system can be rotated to play Imax.
I am sure that the fottag could be converted, although I would doubt then it would have the resolution to stand up. But there are also some decent Omnimax films out there, too.
Perhaps they could run their standard film, and then on special occasions screen a good Omnimax Film from the museum series. Didn't they have one on thrill rides?

Isn't the Back to the Future ride also Omnimax?
