What If: Alien Encounter came back to DHS?

[BrerPete]

Standing on line....
Parent to child (already anxious): Don't worry, its not scary.
Child: I don't want to go.
Parent: Its okay
Me: No. No its not. Your child will be scarred for the rest of their life.
Parent: Oh good the doors are opened. Lets go.

Holy crap, that would be awesome! I'd pay good money to be attacked in the dark by a xenomorph. Stitch with hot dog breath? Not scary or interesting, just lame and gross. Xenomorph with hot dog breath and second mouth sticking out? Scary, creepy, fascinating and awesome in every way. Someone call over to Bob Iger and talk him into it. Go, now, hurry! :sohappy:

I can see this attraction being like this..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sDndKnKs80

This might be a little off-topic but it got me thinking about possible attractions...I think it would be cool to have a Wall-E ride sortof like Horizons or Spaceship Earth. Only you sit in those chairs like they have in the movie and take a tour of the cruise ship that is also featured in the movie. I just like those rides like Horizons and Spaceship Earth.

I truly loved AE the first couple times I experienced it. My very first time was without a doubt the most immersive experience I have ever encountered at any theme park, even to this day. The downfall of any ride of AE's ilk is it doesn't keep that same luster after you know the story (or hear the same "It's my Mother-In-Law" joke).

The problems with that type of interactive show, be it Mission to Mars, AE, or SGE you know what to expect. Granted the jump from Mission to mars to AE was light years, technologically speaking, but you still knew the show would take place in the center of the room and your seat would shake a bit. The rest of it was what made AE so great (Alien breathing on your neck, tongue flicking your hair, heavy footsteps behind you, blood spray from the guy getting attacked on the catwalk, ETC...). The move from AE to SGE was not so great because they really didn't change what happened in the show. You expected stich to jump around on your seats, mess up your hair, they even told you that stich was going to spit on you before you rode SGE (Planning Video, Top 7, etc.). Same effects in a far less immersive story that is directed at a much younger demographic equaled failure for anybody who experienced AE. On the same note, I have heard lots of kids who were too young to have seen AE say SGE was there favorite attraction at the park (seriously, I know).

I say let sleeping Aliens lay. Give me something new to experience.

Finally someone on these boards that agrees with me. :sohappy:

If AE came back to DHS I would soil myself! Then after cleaning up I would get in line.

The original concept for AE WAS based on A L I E N.. Deemed too scary, soooo the other AE was what we got instead...
