The new Nemo Ride?

Post by FlatlandMounty » Jan Mon 08, 2007 9:38 am

How do people feel about this new ride? (excluding the cliche "The old ride was better")

Flatland... I am assuming you are talking about the new Nemo ride in Epcot, and not the new Nemo show in AK. :wink:

The new ride is very good. Excellent use of theming, esp in the queue. I think they finally did a rehab the is better then the original. Not that I don't miss the living seas. But I think the imagineers finally got this one right!

I agree with deacon.. The Nemo ride in The Sea's rocks and so does all the new theming.

I haven't had a chance to see it yet but I love Nemo so I'm sure it will be great. I don't have overly high expectations for it so I'm sure I won't be disapointed. I'm just glad to see something added to the area.

I quite liked it. I took a video of it whilst I was at WDW in November, which is on my website here: http://www.andrewpoole.org.uk/disney/videos/2710.php (although being a dark ride.. some bits are.. well.. dark.

I didn't get to spend too much time in the queue, because the attraction was fairly empty when I went. But from the rusty railings, and the "boat", it looked pretty neat.

I didn't know what to expect from the attraction itself. I just knew it was going to be a "dark ride", and it is, but it isn't -in the traditional sense like Snow White, Pinocchio etc...

Overall I enjoyed it very much. I think some people might be disappointed with the lack of actual physical mechanical undersea creatures.
