Lost Disney Rides Recreated in CGI

Dan Howland writes "Disney closes the rides, but the CGI geeks love them too much to let them disappear. 'Adventures thru Inner Space,' the Disneyland ride in which you shrunk down to the size of a molecule, ran from 1967 to 1985. Atommobiles.com is a fan site which includes this elaborate CGI recreation. The Walt Disney World version of Mr. Toad's Wild Ride closed in 1967. Virtual Toad is in the process of re-building it." I was born after 1967, and I've ridden MTWR many times, so perhaps they're talking about an older version.

    Hi Wil!

    This is totally OT but since you'll get this response on your /. messages. You prolly get a million show idea's a week, so this one probably got sent to /dev/null but...

    A few other slashdotters and myself want to see you create a reality show called "Bullies" or something along those lines.

    Basically it would be just like the show "cheaters" but instead of catching infedility, you would catch bullies on tape, which would be followed up with a parent/teacher conference between the parents of the bully, and the bullied.

    There's a lot more we've come up with, but thats the basic idea, could you post a reply and let us know if this idea floats your boat (or starship)I know there's a huge majority of /.'ers that would love to see you do this show.
