Videos of attractions

Post by michael david magoo » Oct Thu 04, 2007 8:22 pm

:lol: I know that this is a bit off topic, but Im not well these days and dont have as high a concentration as I used to, so please try to understand my post here. I remember some time in the past when I was able to download a copy of the video of Disneys America the Beautiful, 360 vision. It was wonderful to watch. Unfortunately I lost it in a virus attack, and so I was wondering if there is any place where I could get such a download, I looked at extinct attractions but did not see it, so if anyone has any idea where I can go to get it, please let me know. In the mean time, I very much enjoy listening to the audio presentation here, and I wish to thank all those who have worked so hard, past and present, to make this wonderful site available.

There are a number of DVDs out there that you can buy - avoid the 'relive the magic' ones - I was rather disappointed.

Just want to reiterate Guy's statement to avoid relive the magic. Very unsatisfied with quality and service.

Glad to hear that I wasn't the only one - the advertising looked as though they came in a nicely presented box and then turned up in an envelope in CD sleaves. The quality was pretty poor too.

i felt the same away about relive the magic!, they even ripped me off with their "activity book" i got the $1 coloring book from the character premier store instead of the $12 one they showed on the site. scam artists!!!

I, too, agree about Relive the Magic. Bit of a scam, and now, the discs just sit on my shelf, unused. At least it was really cheap, I guess.

Well, I got 2 sets of discs sitting on the shelf, one of which won't even play!!! (I have yet to sort through them to throw out the bad ones!) They sent another set and things got screwy from there with charges to/not to my card. I even threatened to report them to the Better Business Bureau, which changed things. Then they offered all kinds of freebies at a sister site, or something. Whatever.

Eventually, I just broke down and bought the official set from WDW.

Mmm. I had a conversation about the disks that I bought as they were selling them as a set with a certain amount of disks (can't remember the number) and when they arrived there was only half the listed disks. They informed me that they had compressed the files to make it fewer disks but that all the material was still there. This is blatant false advertising and possibly explained why the quality was poor. That said the poor quality was mainly the result of bad filming.

They certainly look better - I would be interested in people's opinions on Jeff's set too.

I haven't seen Jeff's but heard they are far better than relive the magic's. (Does anyone else get motion sickness watching those? lol)

Quite frequently!! It's usually caused for me by people walking. One of the relive the magic sets is a walk around the park and that does make me feel sick.

i have 7 or 8 of jeffs dvds. They are good quality, but they lack the interviews and depth of extinct-attractions club. They come in a thin dvd case with picture on front and back, and pic on dvd itself. If you see something you like, but ti isnt on EAC, then i'd say get it, but if it's on both, go with EAC.

Thanks for the update Vodiwan1 - I haven't tried any of the EAC DVD - there just seems to be so many for each ride that it's hard to choose - any advice would be good.
