The Sorcerer's Apprentice Season 8: Magic Journeys - Hype Thread

[MonorailRed]

The teams wrapped up their journey to Florida with a trip to the Mount Pele Water Park at the Walt Disney World Resort

"Look at these slides" @Lord Fozzinator said "It's almost like Universal copied this project for Volcano Bay"

Better than I thought it would be. It manages to keep the spirit of the orignal pretty well. Even the Disney did managed to feel right at home... for the most part. ("Whole New World" straight up did not belong, and it leading to Teddi's part getting cut down did not help.) Special shout-out to having Fixer-Upper be the obligatory Frozen song - it's one of the few songs from that movie that haven't been milked to death and it fits the Country Bears to a T.

The new, polished looks for the character is... ehh. I like the idea that this is meant to be the Country Bears after years of success; feels very much like a follow-up to the orignal, which is nice. But at the same time... I don't know, it just feels a bit too "Coperate Country" to me.

Big Al’s reskin was a massive improvement IMO.

Movements on the bonnets has improved, but I do wish they split the act with Trixie there for two separate ones.

The smoking fiddle was such a great Marc Davis-esque gag.

Also, is it just me or is show is shorter? Or does it just “feel” shorter with the act combos?

Ok everyone, what do we think of the new Country Bear Jamboree.

I feel like I’ve been ripped off. Maybe I should sue.

Also realized that there is some disturbing fan art of me online. Maybe I should change my name.

Eh, maybe 5?
Not really disturbing so much as weird and off putting

There’s an insider on the D23 thread teasing that this actually means something.

Random sidebar; but I’m part of a Subaru club here in Motown and today we cruised down to this really cool art instillation called The Heidelberg Project.

DSNY Newscast's predictions for D23:

 

[MonorailRed]

Am I really going to scrap where this is going to find a new photo with lower lighting in the castle area? -sigh- yep.



I call this.... the Multiplane Projection effect.

Looks Great - Drones need a little more work with movement... but far stronger than the average forum fireworks effect.

Back to the drawing board.....
