    Default new TTA audio

    As of today the TTA has new audio. Sounds like the guy who narrates the cartoon section of Spaceship Earth.

    But no more "paging mr morrow" or anything else.

    I just got off and expressed my disappointment to a Cast Member.

    Sad times.

    P.s. Space Mountain currently looks like a train wreck. The grounds are blocked by a fence but you can see them on the TTA.

    Cool

    For some reason, I find this bitterly disappointing ...

    The strikes me as being sort of arbitrary and capricious. Sort of like when they, for no apparently reason, removed the talking skull from the Pirates' drop hill.

    Half the fun of TTA is the audio - and trying to duplicate the narrators' voices. I know this sounds stupid, but the voice tracks from TTA can be heard in my house often from DS, DH or me having a "Disney Moment".

    Sad indeed . . .

    They added Stitch and Monsters Inc.

    The got rid of all "now approaching..." lines and the "forward facing tentacles" bit.

    Bummer! I don't know if I can ride TTA without Mr. Tom Morrow! That really makes me sad!

    What a bummer! That was one of the reasons I liked the TTA b/c it was so retro. And I agree, I thought they were over Stitch-ugh!

    Can we have a retro Disney World and a all new refurbished Disney World? I would love an over the top, totally retro version myself.

    I wish they would stop messing with the "classics". I don't even think I'll be able to ride it anymore.

    That bites. My family really loves that ride and the audio is part of the fun.

    I still remember my, then, two year old talking about keeping his forward facing test@$%$#@ in the car.

    He's now 11 and we still laugh about that....

    Doesn't make any sense to me; why not just supplement the track and keep the classic stuff? "now approaching" is a constant phrase we use around the house and we will miss it at the park. We even looked forward to hearing it when walking under the track areas. TTA was closed when we were there in August, so we didn't get a last chance. Thank God for YouTube!!

    I guess we can assume the same will happen to the queue line recording in Star Tours, once that rehab is done. Better get your Tom Morrow fix from there before it is too late.

    This just frustrates me to NO end! I was on this ride last week and was SO GRATEFUL they had not messed with the audio.

    Why? What's the reasoning? Jiminy Crickets!! I'm so ticked off right now. Thank goodness I have the original audio on my iPod (along with the Jeremy Irons SSE).

    It is a shame to lose the old audio. I loved the "now approaching" stuff. I agree that they should have left the classic lines in there.

    But, contrary to the Stitch haters here...I'm thrilled to know we'll hear Stitch on the ride in December. I really miss hearing him on the resort monorail. At least I still have his monorail spiel on my iPhone.

    Where is that track available online? I did a quick Google search, and was unable to find it. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

    Unhappy

    pagin Mr Morrow, Mr Tom Morrow, your future has been cancelled
    RIP to another great memory and favorite little Disney gem
    The TTA has always been a favorite of mine, Im glad all my family got a few memorable rides in 08
    This got me thinking, wouldnt it be great (I know this isnt possible, just work with me for a minute) if attractions at WDW could be like Horizons -- where the rider could choose one of several experiences. Imagine being able to ride the "old" TTA (or the Wedway), or the new one...being able to enjoy the old Tiki Birds, or choose Under New Managment..lots of possibilities to dream about. The COP could really use this feature, as there are several itterations one could choose from. I always loved the "future" of Tomorrowland (my childhood favorite land) and the Disney spirit of progress. Starting to wonder....

    I rode it just yesterday with the original soundtrack and then today...bam! It changed.

    And it's not just that they added the Stitch voice; they now talk about the newest attractions (so stitch and monsters).

    It really isn't the same.
