Stitchs Great Escape?

BCC · 07-22-2006, 10:01 AM

I noticed that in The World of Disney store, they are selling Android Stitchs promoting STITCH'S GREAT ESCAPE? Look at the tag on the android, Disneyland and Disneyworld? This made me wonder. Are they going build it?

Why would they? Nobody rides the one they have now.

The US theme parks often share their merchandise. Look at the tags/imprints on most of the souvenirs; they usually mention both WDW and DLR.

SGE wasn't that bad but not as nearly as good as Encounter.

linklewtt · 07-22-2006, 02:28 PM

i wish i could have gone on alien encounter. they should build it and modify it so that people won't complain.

sora_145 · 07-22-2006, 04:19 PM

Well it's really the same thing in the long run.

Harrison Hightower III · 07-22-2006, 04:43 PM

Not really Sora! Stitch is to weak and not at all scary but Encounter is way more intense and entirely more entertaining! I bet you haven't been on either!!

linklewtt · 07-22-2006, 05:53 PM

i've been on stitch and it is pretty weak. i've only heard the audio from AE, but it sounds super thrilling.

i can't really compare, but i heard some other people talking about how it was much less intense than before when i went on stitch.

AE was thrilling and intense and totally inappropriate for small children but man i wish I'd gone on it heh. Can't believe I didn't bother because I heard it was a sit still show not a ride.

Harrison Hightower III · 07-23-2006, 08:22 AM

Yeah its a show not a ride and thats just why they changed it to Stitch.

PeoplemoverMatt · 07-23-2006, 05:02 PM

It's not a ride in the sense that you get in a car & go somewhere, and it's not a show in that you just sit & watch something on a stage. AE & SGE are both hybrids of design in that you're watching but involved in it as well.

AE had you so involved that the poor kids thought they were all about to be eaten alive. So Disney made a move to include a movie character & keep the attraction open to all audiences. That was a tough choice to make - do we keep it original and exclude anyone younger than 13, or do we lighten things up a bit and bring in Stitch? Well you know the marketeers must have just about fainted over having the chance to bring in a character into a park & boy did they ever market up Stitch. Thing is, Stitch's crowds didn't fizzle after a week.

But that is what makes it a ride! The straps have a special speakers that make you experience sound and make you think its actually happening when its not. The restraints also pull down to simulate something right on top of you. In AE it actually had hot sticky air blow on the back of your neck to make you think the Alein is right beheind you!! It was AWESOME!!!

Long story short, SGE does not deserve the Technology.
