But given the fact that Disney has decided it is necessary, I at least appreciate knowing where I am supposed to go. On more than once occasion I’ve been very irritated by finding out at the last minute that there is NO exit out of the entrance area in the direction I had gone. Now I will at least (hopefully) know whether I should head left or right.

Originally Posted By jonnyrzone420 Spirit, I put my mini review in the other topic. The movement of the new animatronics is better than anything I have ever seen, even jack sparrow, the head movement is pretty much the same the body movement is so life-like. Most of scenes are the same but a little shorter, like the burning of rome. The family watching the tv at the end is gone, and there is a scene of steve jobs in college building the first mac, but it doesn't say it is him. I like a womans voice (judy dench) doing the narration better. The sound is much better, it sounds like all of the speakers are brand new. The touch screens on the ride vehicle show stuff in the very beginnig and then end, during the ride it shows stars. As you are decending it starts to ask you personality questions like 'if your with a friend and they get hurt, do you run for help or take the matter into your own hands?' and something like 'Do you prefer the latest in innoventive technology, or do enjoy what already works fine?' after you input you answers, it starts asking trivia questions based on what you saw in the ride and then answers them, after about thirty second you hears judi's voice again saying a video based on your answers is about to start. There is a cartoon with two people that play a quick story based on your answers. Mine displayed possible upcoming medical technology, like a cast that tells you when your healed, and nanobots that could fix a wound. I like these additions better than the ones at HM. I would definitely ride this one again in the same day as opposed to the original where I would only ride once a year 'because it was something you had to do when you we were with family'. The wall will be down very very shortly, and the official opening is february 18th, 2008.

SALSA means Spend A Little Save A Lot
