I have always loved SSE and will continue to do so (with or without the screens at the end). Prior to this it was a hokie light show and some static sets anyway. Really, like I said above, I just want the Tomorrow's Child song back.

Sad but true...

Originally Posted By demderedoseguys I actually liked the ending- well, almost. It would have been nice if they could have incorporated the interactive portion on the way down earlier and left the very end with the city of tomorrow scene intact.

Originally Posted By danyoung > I want the chariot back in the Rome scene!< I completely agree, and I can't imagine why Disney felt the need to take this effect out. It was one of my favorites in the attraction for some dumb reason. And it included the flames up on the Roman roads. The scene just seems flat now without this simple projection.

I guess it was just one of those little things that you enjoy about a ride, and now it's gone.

My wife said she thought he was facing that way because he was looking up the street in the background. That may or not be the intent, I just think it looks dumb.
