What?! I cant give 10 stars?!
Brilliant show guys!:_applauso::_applauso:
For those of you who want to be like Scott, here- a full listing of audio BGM and narration script. (http://blm07.dreamhosters.com/wiki/index.php?title=Horizons_audio_list)Then go kiss a sea lion:bacino:.(Just for the record, in the Nova Cite scene, with the husband and wife, the line is "Like the music? My wife picked it out.") Views of some of the scenes here (http://shanedlm.hostrator.com/horizons/).
The building is a piece of beautiful architecture. I called it "Mini Spaceship Earth" when i was little, so I had forgotten what it looked like until I got into WDW history. Before then, i guess I remembered it being a geodesic dome, like WoL. (I probably called it that because it was the only other AA attraction.)
The 'Art Deco' version of 'Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow' is my favorite version. Love that scene. I want that vacuuming robot, even if it is just an action figure.:emozionato:
The smelitezer is the greatest invention since the wheel. Considering how I only went on Horizons maybe once, that smell made me remember it forever. The orange scene in Soarin' brings back memories of Horizons, even if there are no floating harvesters in Soarin'. IMO, the music from the orange sequence of Soarin' sounds very similar to a (sped up) version of the Mesa Verde BGM.
The effect that would transition you from sea to space did not work because the projector shook too much, and was too loud.
The pictures I have (unfortunately) seen of the bulldozing of Horizons are rather unpleasant and sickening.:vomito::piange: I was there when it was mostly gone and the fence was up. I was probably only 3 or 4, and seeing a sign with Space written really cool is bound to make any little boy happy. (then it opened, then I turned 13 and saw what it replaced.)
Can you explain the "His name was Acid' joke for a...newer listener?:emozionato:
Now it's time to slam Mission: SPACE.:_applauso:
I am semi-claustrophobic. My dad when to Orange and said it was unpleasant. I am not a coaster junkie, but love ToT. This does not sound fun. I tried green, but got up to the 'capsule' and turned around. Way too small. As an Epcot Center fan and lover (so what if I'm 15?), I half refuse to go on Mission:Space due to Horizons.Mission: Space was not a good replacement, rideabilaty wise. The original 'Journeys in Space' would have been cooler, funner, friendlier, and more interactive (as Mission: Space is, not really.).
I think the exit hallway looks like the side of the Starspeeder 3000.

disclaimer-Anyone care to tell me my opinion on Mission: Space is wrong, okay.

long post.... Great show!:_applauso:
