Haha, I absolutely sucked at that, and rarely got over 15,000

When I was first told about the show, I thought it was something that could be fun. After hearing the reports, it sounds like a real zero. Although the MILF thing did give my DW and I a good laugh!! If you don't know what that means, I guess you lead a good clean life!!

Awesome score, I wish I took a picture of my score. I guess I was just so excited to see my score, I was still in a state of shock. I hardly look at my score until the end.

I don't think Buzz is a bad attraction. I just think it doesn't fit.
Tomorrowland is very close to Cartoon land now.

I swear if they ever got rid of Carousel of Progress then I would have to sya that Disney has gone insane, and ruined Tomorowland.The ride is a classic and an original Walt Disney ride....if they ever want to do anything with that ride, I would say that they should update the ending perhaps.

I still plan to check this out if it's open when I am there the first week of May. I just want to see for myself. I thought that Turtle Talk with Crush was excellent.

They have updated the the last scene at least once, already.
I'm sure there are plans to add Nemo (the fish) to Tomorrowland. I mean he is in Animal Kingdom, and Epcot.

I kind of wish they'd update the last scene again, actually. Every time Patty complains about the old days when "they didn't even have a car phone!" or Grandpa talks about new-fangled laser discs, it makes me cringe a little. I guess it will always be a problem with those kinds of attractions where you're guessing about the near-ish future. Still ... *cringe*.
That said, if the options were leave it alone or take it out altogether, I'd want them to leave it be.

Don't cringe at Laser Discs, I have a whole bunch. Including Indiana Jones (all 3) and the 3 original Star Wars. I always search for more on ebay. They are still better than DVD's, they just never caught on and much.

If you count Disneyland's Tomorrowland Nemo will be there this summer.
That would then be Nemo at 3 different themed parks. I'm tired of this pixarifcation.

I remember in one of my university physics classes, the professor wanted to show us some show or other and he had it on laser disc. When he pulled it out the whole class oooh'd and aaah'd like he'd pulled out some magnificent relic.
They were/are pretty cool however. My point was more that, as you said, they didn't really catch on and probably won't now, so it makes the attraction a little "by the year 1986 people will all have flying cars!" to me.

Actually the way she says 'car phone' bothers me more because those did catch on, just no one calls them that anymore.

Bleh. This sounds more and more like it'll be a pass for me. I can sort of understand why they had to do -something- about Timekeeper. The last time I saw it in summer 2004 I thought it was odd that the clock in the room gave the current date as June 2001, until I saw the WTC in the fly-through of NYC. I don't think they could have reasonably left the 'current time' stuck in June 2001 forever, though they could have just edited that part out out or something? I dunno. I'll still miss the 'keeper and Nine Eye.
