Apparently the Anaheim people mover used to be “through the world of Tron” for a brief period around the release/that peoplemovers short life. And thus Lightcycle run is not the first Tron attraction in parks. It was mainly 1980s projection technology in one of the tunnels. We still have the people mover in Orlando and something needs to be put in that one 2 minute long tunnel of pitch black- it’s terrifying as all you hear is screams from Space mountain with no context. I would sit though a cheesy 80s park show in a heart beat

This was a overlay in Anaheim from I believe 82’ until the end of the People movers run (when it turned into the disastrous Rocket rods- funnnily enough there was a Tron idea of racing cycles around tommorowland that wouldn’t went on this track. It was one of their initial ideas and potentially how we have lightcycle run today) . Aside from needing a serious oil job from all the squeaking, there is a charm to the OG people over, I’m also jealous it goes through star tours!

Now the Tron portion occurs midway during one of the tunnel portions of the ride. Automatically you can tell what budget their on, the voice isn’t very robotic (compare it today to the train at Disney world where a siren comes on in the tunnel before approaching Tron).

You get digitized in the same exact shot from the film, down to the dial up noise creating pretty stellar projections throughout the tunnel, the same beautiful shots of patterns and circuits. It goes into a lightcycle sequence racing and dodging around you— honestly it’s pretty great visually and I absolutely adore how perfect they have the sound?

“You have escaped Tron’s game grid for now Users,” I’m sobbing. Was he trying to run us down??? Hello?? This is especially funny because going into the tunnel it mentions master control and HE is the one mad/digitizing the guests. It’s the computer world of Tron but not his games.

Video

It’s not as cheesy as I thought it was going to be, in fact it’s a great little tribute/advertisement for the movie itself “wasn’t that cool? Go watch it!” Alongside how back in the day the parks had actual arcades within them too. All I’m saying is we still have a people mover at Disney world and a already existing Tron ride… it’d only be fitting… 80s projections and all.

I like how much influence this held on what ultimately became lightcycle run, now of course it’s set In the sequel but the idea dates back to the original. Both the digitization sequence and lightcycle race are pivotal to both films so it only makes sense they’d want a attraction on it.

Magic Kingdom | June 2023

1/2

For some of the best pictures in the park- Ride 👏🏻 the 👏🏻 riverboat 👏🏻. You get spectacular views and fun narration, it’s a attraction and has lore within itself. Underrated

That fya episode is insaneee like shane and ryan have old married couple vibes 24/7 but the vibes in that episode were off the charts.

YEAH it was so fun... To Me one of the biggest Married moments was when they were going over their talking points for the episode and shane in the most exasperated voice goes oh my god you really love rides... like idk what it is about That moment but it felt so dear and familiar and sweet and Married to me.

#anon #💌#shyan #fya #and the way ryan was so incredulous the whole time that shane actually chose and loves the peoplemover.
