Disneyland's 60th Anniversary has officially kicked off. It was time to return to the park and start to catch up on everything that is going on. Our first stop was the Tomorrowland sneak peek in while Tomorrowland of course.
The movie Sneak Peek is currently in the old Captain EO theater and like the other sneak peeks that Disneyland has shown it was great. This Sneak Peeks really make you want to see the movies and once again wish that the whole movie could be shown with the in theater effects. The sneak peeks really blow you away –(literally in the case of the wind effects in the jet pack sneak peek scene).
My wife asked “ Why do we need to see the sneak peek –we are going to see the movie itself next week and we have already seen the long trailer—it will be just the same?” Well after we saw the sneak peek she didn’t feel the same . The in theater effects and extended scene were tremendous. It covered stuff not previously seen in the trailers and just sparked my imagination for what the film will hold.

With cool displays from the 1964 World Fair and clips of Walt himself it really set the perfect mood.
The Small World factor:
After watching this movie or sneak peek you will probably never look at the Small World ride the same again. I personally used to wonder as a kid where the boats went when you see the routes that go off stage. Having worked at the parks and on the subs in particular I know as an adult that it is probably into a repair shop or just off track storage, but my imagination as a child always pictured some secret ride sections or something amazing.
The directors of this movie must have thought the same thing –because they reignited all those childhood fantasies all over again. See the film and you will know what I’m talking about.

In addition to the sneak peek for the movie that once again made it a must see for me—there was a cool little exhibit in the Starcade that had props and concept art from the film. Here is a sample of some of what is there. The concept art is amazing...I wish Tomorrowland looked like the Tomorrowland from the film.
I pondered in a separate blog that I hoped for but didn’t expect Disney to give the same treatment to Avengers and Star Wars –since those movies are so big that they practically market themselves. Avengers has come and gone with no such sneak peel (I was unfortunately right). I so wish they would have a Star Wars Force Awakens one….but that seems unlikely.
