Huge Rumor Confirmed!!!!

[mrFDNY]

hi all,
Someone sent me this so i figure i share it.Not really sure how rumor it was since we all knew that they were doing something with nemo at the living seas,this just has a lot of detail to it.

Today's grand opening of Expedition Everest also saw an announcement of the new attraction currently under construction at the Living Seas.

The Seas with Nemo & Friends, opening fall 2006 at Epcot, will be a whimsical and visually stunning attraction in The Living Seas pavilion featuring technology that for all appearances has the stars of "Finding Nemo" swimming amid the live marine life of the huge aquarium in an adventure that picks up where the motion picture left off.

The Seas with Nemo & Friends, a whimsical and visually stunning attraction for guests of all ages, is scheduled to open at Epcot in Fall 2006. Featuring technology that for all appearances has the stars of "Finding Nemo" swimming amid the live marine life of the huge aquarium in The Living Seas pavilion, the attraction is an adventure that picks up where the motion picture left off.

The undersea voyage begins aboard "clamobiles" in a colorful coral reef setting. Guests first meet Mr. Ray and his class on a field trip and soon learn that Nemo has wandered off.

The journey to find Nemo continues as familiar characters such as Dory, Bruce, Marlin, Squirt and Crush help with the search along the way. These deep sea friends inhabit a variety of vibrant vignettes, including the actual aquarium -- one of the world's largest saltwater aquariums -- which contains more than 65 species of marine life.

In the musical finale of the attraction, Nemo is happily reunited with his class and friends.

Upon exiting the attraction, guests can explore the rest of the pavilion, which is home to "Turtle Talk with Crush," the smash-hit recent addition featuring the movie's laid-back sea turtle, who interacts with guests in real-time, unscripted conversations; Bruce's Shark World, an interactive area with colorful graphics and fun facts about sharks; and live marine life in both the large aquarium and specialized exhibits.

At Disneyland we aren't getting our Nemo ride until 2007...ours will be a submarine ride, I am very much looking forward to it.

 

[safetymom]

Thanks for the info. Sounds like a fun attraction.

I'm so glad they're doing something new! I love Nemo, too! Hopefully, it will be open when we visit in October.

 

[Tantor]

That sound great. I wonder when in the fall Nemo will open.....

 

[SplshMtn99]

Am I remembering wrong? Didn't the living seas include some sort of ride in a vehicle to veiw the aquarime a LONG time ago? Or maybe I'm confusing it with something else somewhere else.

If so, sounds easy enough for them, to just make scene & story changes & put the ride back on line. That is opposed to having to build the whole ride into the building & aquarium.

Yep I heard something about this in one of those Disney podcasts

Yup, it's coming and also Nemo the Musical was also confirmed to replace Tarzan at AK.

I haven't checked the DIS home page, but allearsnet.com had the announcement of both Nemo attractions posted Friday 4/7. I won't be there for the opening of either one, but there's always another year to visit.

Yes, the ride vehicles were called "sea cabs". Sounds like a rehab to a "Clam Cab" with some special effects built into the aquarium windows.

We'll be there in mid-Sept. I wonder if there will be a soft opening when we're there? I'd love to see it. We love Nemo!

 

[TXTink]

Awww! That sounds cute! I'll have to start planning another trip!!

 

[zen1]

I love Nemo! That sounds so cool and cute and I can't wait to see it, when we go in Dec.!

 

[Stitchfans]

Saw this on another thread yesterday. I am really looking forward to seeing this on our upcoming so far away trip!!

 

[cardaway]

I'm very excited that there is a attraction in The Living Seas again and this new Nemo theme sounds great.

On the other hand I think the Nemo change in AK is overkill and sounds lame. If people didn't like Tarzan put another show in there. One that fits the AK theme better. Personally I liked Tarzan, and they could have changed that a little if that's what it took. Even a Jungle Book theme would be better than Nemo IMO given the location.

 

[sajetto]

That sounds like a really cute attraction. Normally, we just walk past the living seas, but we'll stop to take a look at whats new next time
