I am one of the many who is suprised to see that Honey I Shrunk the Audience is not on the top of the list to be replaced! The show is very old the film is really grainy and It is a rare ocasion if they can get 15 people into one showing. Most people skip it because it is boring and non memorable, it uses characters everyone has forgotten and is severely outdated. I think Disneyland management should get rid of this ride because of the reasons above. I personaly think it is an embarassment to the land! If the future of tommmorowland is Fantasised space travel (SM, ST, BLAB). What does a scientist and a shrinkray have to do with the future. I can also say the same about Innoventions. If the future that current management is going for is the space travel of fantasty then how come these two attractions havn't got the nife yet? HISTA as I can imagine would be very easy to replace, why doesn't this ride get replaced yet?

Too bad they can't have Captain Eo back since Michael Jackson's all bat loco.
I think they should put something new and optimistic and TOMORROWLANDISH!Well, light travels from the sun. Then, bounces off of our planet, and back into our eyes so we can perceive color. My body can intercept that light and dance around on it!

You know, if they combined HISTA and the old Mine Train Thru Nature's Wonderland, you'd get the HISTA-Mine. If you were against combining these two attractions, though, that would make you Anti-HISTA-Mine. In which case, you'd be real popular during pollen season. :lol:My fondest memory of Walt Disney was the day Disneyland opened....I was standing next to him - I was 12 years old - he was looking at the gate where people were coming through, he had his hands behind his back, he had a grin from ear to ear, but you could see the lump in his throat and the tear coming down his cheek because his dream had been realized. -- Mouseketeer Sharon Baird, "Mouseke-Memories", Walt Disney Treasures: The Mickey Mouse Club

It's time."Yesterday, a man walked up to me and said, 'Isn't it a shame that Walt Disney couldn't be here to see this?' and I said, "He did see this, that's why it's here."

Even with the grainy quality of this 3d'er, it has some of the most fun effects of any other 3d Disney movie. Even compare it to anyother 3d movie in any other non disney theme park, and it will be difficult to beat. (HISTA is certainly better than the 3d Leslie Neilson Pirate movie that Sea World had, and HISTA is better that Shrek 3d, Term 2 3d might come close, but lacks the family fun twist Hista has.)
In a way, I consider it a more modern version of Adventure thru Innerspace, although you don't shrink down quite that small. And as far as theme wise to TL, I don't see the difficulty in it fitting in to the Tomorrowland theme. It certainly fits better than the Subs, the Train Stop, Autopia, and a heck of a lot better than Innoventions.
So, until they fix the Subs, Monorail, Peoplemover, update Star Tours, something as high as the old Rocket Jets and the Skyway, and replace the most ridiculously lousy attraction in all of TL history, Innoventions, let's hold off on replacing the ONLY attraction in Tomorrowland that gives you a chance to sit down for more than 10 minutes, have a few laughs. Hista is quite a fun attraction in the meantime.
The other improvements are in much more dire need updating, so lets get the crappier stuff fixed first. Lest ye all forget the infamous "Reimagineering a New Attraction" sign that hung on the Carousel of Progress / America Sings for over a decade, (and should still be there) and the Sub Attraction which may be close to 10 years of vacancy, as well.Critter Country's a mess ev'r since the Country Bears were kicked out.

Plus, I'm a big Python fan, so I think it's great that they got Eric Idle in the show.In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate.

It's the fundemental problem with movie tie-ins to rides. Once the movie is stale, the ride has very little appeal. Original concepts have a better chance at longevity. Of course, if the ride has merit on its own, like Indy, it will probably never grow stale. HISTA just wasn't that good of a ride in the first place.

I went for Grad Nite last year, and one of my favorite teachers fell asleep through the whole thing. THE WHOLE THING. And that ain't a quiet show! It's filled with like, things that touch you and splash you and big booming noises!
Here is his picture (I think it's the funniest picture, ever.): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...phsleeping.jpgWell, light travels from the sun. Then, bounces off of our planet, and back into our eyes so we can perceive color. My body can intercept that light and dance around on it!

Voted "Yes" because it's old and the syntax (tie in w/ the Honey, I... movies) is gone.
However, completely agree that it's not the top five of rides to replace/fix.
The ride still "works". TL needs (and DL) needs all the capacity it can get for the 50th
and beyond. Another closure (w/out replacement) would negatively effect TL (again).

I saw that train-wreck once, and wanted to leave while I was in it. They can't get rid of it fast enough. Strange enough, I really liked Philharmagic at WDW. It has so much great DIsney music, that I could see it more than once. Only problem, it dosen't really fit in Tomorrowland. I don't know what they can do with that space.

If they're going to remove it, by God, they'd better have something else ready to go in. And who knows when that will happen. I'd rather they dealt with other issues in the park, first (like maybe upgrading Pooh to the good version or something).
If it was between removing HISTA, or doing something with the People Mover track, or a new Star Tours, which would you folks prefer? I doubt anything more will be done in TL (besides the Nemo overlay) for a good two or three years at least.Last edited by Wotan; 04-07-2005, 10:59 AM.
