I opened the Disney Tomorrowland Tin last night and watched Man in Space, Our Friend the Atom, And EPCOT. I hadn't seen the first two since I was in school, it was such an amazing trip down memory lane and so interesting to see how accurate the various predictions were. I loved reliving the era when everything, including nuclear power was met with such optimism. I also loved the fact that all the scientists had german accents - that was the era eh?
EPCOT, of course was a dleight as always. That little film has some of the best images of the park, sweeping shots of the park on the movie. I had to stop and review several portions of the footage. Whenever I see this I think what a shame it was never built and wonder if someday, some visionary will.
