Horizons

Here is a project to recreate the greatest ride from the glory days of Epcot. It seems to be just one guy working on it but from the speed of his impressive results I'm guessing he's some sort of alien half-fan half-computer creature. He has a rough interactive version you can walk through that is pretty damn cool (it does require the unity plug-in for your browser to try, but it's worth it and after you get it you can play fun games like this) at the moment you can just walk up to the building and go through a low-fi version of the queue area, but it has music and voice overs at the correct places and is pretty neat.

While on the topic of Epcot check out these great retro style posters for classic Epcot rides.

 

There's even separate group based on the ending locations from Horizons.If I had extra cash and extra walls I'd buy the whole bunch. But as the saying goes "Money can't buy you walls", (and I don't have any money.)

It just makes me want to drive to Epcot right now, but sadly it won't be twenty years in the past when I get there.

What the heck since I'm posting about it here's the best video about Horizons you'll ever find. That way you can remember how great it was and then think about the fact that it's gone... forever.

It's long but it so detailed it is well worth the time to watch.
