How Disney pulled off the technical feats in Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway
- dTal 7y agoThis is a blatant submarine[0]. There is precious little discussion of any technical feats (the most I got out of it was that they used projection mapping in places). [0]http://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html http://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html
- mcphage 7y agoThis article doesn’t really have much technical information, unlike what is promised in the title, but I just wanted to hijack this thread and mention how much I love the recent Mickey Mouse shorts that this ride is based on. They’re like Mickey Mouse by way of Ren and Stimpy—delightfully weird and clever and experimental in a way that I never expected Disney to be with their most valuable IP. Plus there’s a bunch that take place in other countries—and so they’re all spoken in foreign languages, completely untranslated, trusting that kids can follow along anyway. They’re all on Disney+, and lots of them are on YouTube, and get a lot done in 4 minutes. (My personal favorite is Feliz Cumpleaños)
