Episode 109 - Top 6 Reasons We Won't Review "Escape From Tomorrow"

Hello, folks. SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

There aren't many films that come along about the theme park industry, so when they happen along, you'd expect us to review them…and while this isn't a bad notion, we've received a surprising amount of requests to review a little film called "Escape from Tomorrow", a 2013 movie that was filmed at the Disney parks incognito.

We watched it, and after much debate, we decided this movie is not worthy of a Theme Park Reel-view. "No, but why?!" you ask. We compiled 6 good reasons that it's just not worth our time, and we hope you'll understand. Might you be able to cobble a review out of it? Never mind that…listen in and you'll find out why we've opted out of giving it a full review.

Episode 108 - Festival of the Lion King

Greetings, listeners! SurferClock here, along with TAP-G (and a special guest!) to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

Today's episode marks a true first for us...while we've employed cameos and guest spots from a range of folks spanning both Channel Awesome (Some Jerk with a Camera) and our YouTube partners at Those Dudes with a Hat, we've never done a true crossover review until today! Lion King/Lion Guard aficionado Brandon the Bambi Man, host of Golden Ticket Reviews on YouTube, joins forces with SurferClock and TAP-G to review a marquee attraction at Disney's Animal Kingdom: Festival of the Lion King! Since its debut way back in 1998, it's drawn crowds for every show. A recent change in venue thanks to Pandora: The World of Avatar (a new land currently under construction as of the time of this blog post) brought it to a new building...does this new venue wow? And what of the show itself? Join the three of us for this review...you won't regret it!

Greetings, listeners! SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

We're finally finishing off Marvel Superhero Island's attractions over at Universal's Islands of Adventure with today's review of Doctor Doom's Fearfall! This attraction features a drop tower designed by the titular Doctor Victor Von Doom to extract the very fear from your body, in the hopes of using that fear to defeat the Fantastic 4! Does the plan succeed, and more importantly, is it worth going through that fear extraction process? Find out by checking out our review by clicking the link below!

Episode 106 - Versus! Men in Black Alien Attack vs. Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin

Ding ding ding! Get ready to watch SurferClock and TAP-G put up their dukes as What's the Attraction? brings you another episode of Versus!

In the red corner, dapperly dressed in black and ready to fight the worst scum of the universe, it's Men in Black: Alien Attack from Universal Studios Florida, represented by SurferClock!

And in the blue corner, straight out of Star Command, it's Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin from Magic Kingdom Park, ready to reclaim those crystallic fusion cells with the assistance of TAP-G.

Two attractions enter, two attractions leave (because we can't realistically have attraction grudge matches…yet!) But which of them is worth a good, long wait? Find out as the attractions go head to head on Versus!

Episode 105 - Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin

Greetings, cadets! SurferClock here, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

Today's episode brings us to the not-too-distant future of Tomorrowland, where we take on the evil emperor Zurg to save the crystallic fusion cells…that's right, it's Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin at Magic Kingdom Park! This attraction puts you in the role of a Star Command recruit, where you zap targets and score points to stop Zurg's plans. The attraction debuted in 1998, and some would say it was ahead of its time…but how does it hold up against the march of new technology? Find out by giving us a listen at the link below!

Episode 104 - How Broken is Epcot? (A WTA Editorial)

Hello there, folks. SurferClock, along with TAP-G, to bring you the latest episode of "What's the Attraction?"

We're taking a break from ride and show reviews once more to bring up something of an important point...looking into the state of Walt Disney World, in all its strange state of disarray with at least two of the parks having many major attractions closed or being refurbished, we decided to focus on just one of the parks and ask...just how broken is Epcot? By considering Walt's purpose for Epcot, what Epcot became, and all its potential, we hope to offer a brief history, some insight, and a few solutions on how to potentially bring some life back into the aging theme park. Check it out by clicking the link below, and feel free to bring your own insights and ideas into the comments section! We'd love to hear what you have to say.
