Seeing how much more alive Tomorrowland felt back in the early 90s gives me nostalgic chills. Nice video.
Though there's one thing that's been bugging me since I was maybe 5 or 6 years old - what's that big room at about 8:04 onwards?

I went to Disneyland today and talke to the one of the cast members as I rode the monorail he was saying that rumor has it Disney has big plans for the people mover track (or what's left of it) he said either A: they bring back the original people mover with a whole new look or B: they convert the people mover into a TRON EVOLUTION based attraction now again he said these are just rumors not the truth people do not start freaking out or criticizing thanks :-)

@pedrokingdomhearts The Circle Vision Theater. It was a large mural made by Mary Blair (the same lady who designed it's a small world). The mural depicted how our children are our future or something. This mural, along with the rest of Tomorrowland, was torn down in the late 90's and reopened in 1998 as "The New Tomorrowland".

When I was a teenager we all called this the make-out ride. I seriously thought it was Disney's version of Tunnel of Love.

@Philious You are correct. There used to be a "Midget Autopia" later changed to "Junior Autopia".

@FierceSandy In 2000, Disneyland replaced both existing Autopia tracks with a new, much larger Autopia sponsored by Chevron. The colorful Chevrolet Corvette Stingray-style cars were replaced by three different kinds of cars: Dusty, an off-road style car; Sparky, a sports car; and Suzy, a Volkswagen Beetle-style car.

@saveferris55 Not true. Autopia has undergone many additions and tranformations since it first opened in 1955. In 2000, Disneyland replaced both existing Autopia tracks with a new, much larger Autopia.

@snacks123 The arcade is still there, it's just down on the ground floor now.

@Benstudio13 Right! Cal OSHA regs meant that in order for the Peoplemover to be compliant (safe) Disney would have to spend a ton of money rennovating the old ride to make it so. Disney didn't want to spend the cash, so the idea of bringing them back was scrapped. |
