Thoughts on this technology?

I want this technology being used with this precision in the hopefully upcoming "The Thing" movie.

Animatronics are really fucking cool
But the human looking ones usually end up a bit creepy

Walt Disney has a surprising resemblance to Stalin.

>>105911283 (OP)
Would be more accurate if he was spinning in his grave

>>105911283 (OP)
>Funding ran out, so they unfroze Walt's body and tried reanimating it
>Has no legal right or personhood due to cryonics regulations, so they're using it like this until he can have his death certificate rescinded
Grim.

They'll just replace everything with cheap CGI.

Depressing. This man's goal was to revolutionize American infrastructure and to lift people up into middle class conditions. But investors didn't want vision, they wanted immediate returns. They didn't want long term industry. So Walt worked up to his dream by making theme parks as a way of experimenting with transist or habitation systems while hooking investors in. He worked on animatronics to dip toes into automation and computer/memory processing and so much more. Yet here we are. All of these minor footnotes for something greater is the only legacy people will remember him by just as the investors saw him: an animatronic attraction.

>upcoming "The Thing" movie
which black actor is the protagonist and which white actor is the evil corporate greedy bastard wanting to monetize 'the thing'

>>105911283 (OP)
Sex version when.

I wanna see walking fnaf animatronics not sone senile faggot

Was it?

Well he at the very least he *thought* his work would revolutionize with the "Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow" plans. Whether or not you think the implications around private cities in an era of CEO led corporations is a good or dystopian idea is a different matter entirely. But if we do take him at his word the reality he presents is far more desirable than the current reality we have to live through now.

>>105914545
How do you know what he thought?

>>105911283 (OP)
looks uncanny

>>105914664
stop being annoying

I honestly think EPCOT would have spelled the end of America. It was a corporate excuse to eliminate American freedom and replace it fully with business run government. With enough money politicians were bought and "dreams" became reality. If EPCOT became a popular enough model with the parks, others would follow. Imagine if Google, Amazon, Blackrock could make city states where US laws don't apply. Where to live you must be a "part of the corporate family." Actually read what Walt's plans for EPCOT were and it becomes a lot more bleak. Think about what remains of these concepts like the "people mover".

This legacy held onto the Dinsey parks for decades after his death. The parks have their own laws, police, fire department, power plant and waste water treatment plants. They are literally their own city states with the ability to make holograms and skyscrapers with workers who sleep in RV's in their parking lot.

Just look at other boom towns like Pullman, in the end it's us that get the short end.

It’s pretty crazy yeah. Calculon will star in their first performance soon.

>>105911283 (OP)
Useless, cant even walk and his existence is completely prerecord to perform those few hand movements. They created something similar centuries ago in Europe. What you see here is pretty much dead end of this tech.

>>105911283 (OP)
Are the 3d robot animators just bad or is it a technogical limitation that makes it look so unnatural?

>>105911283 (OP)
give it girl proportions and a pussy

>>105911283 (OP)
If it's AI, it's not impressive anymore.
If it's not AI, why even bother with this uncanny crap?

They had a bunch of really cool shit at the parks and I was happy I got to see it before they tore it all down and replaced it with garbage. The Tower of Terror ride was particularly cool when it first opened. They used to show you a video in a cool library then after it finished the bookshelf spun around revealing a sekrit door which led to the area where you stood in the short line to get on the ride.

Now they skip it all together and just line people up out of the door to the front of the park. Lots of cool shit they don't even use anymore. Like Splash Mountain getting torn down despite being both awesome and non-offensive to anyone.

Modern Disney World is hellish. Anyone that's seen the sea of strollers parked infront of every attraction and the sea of people lining up to take selfies knows what I mean. I visited twice. Once in 1998 and again in 2018. It wasn't like the same place anymore.

It's the only place where I've taken MDMA and still found myself unable to shake my overwhelming depression about the state of the world and humanity. I will never go back despite it being one of my most fondly remembered memories of my teenage years.

It looks much better in person assuming you can find the few that are still well maintained and in working order. The later models are particularly impressive. What you're seeing in OP is over 50 years old by this point.

Disney World used to be staffed by some of the most well trained people on the planet and they used to push what was possible with technology. Now it's staffed by teenage slaves and nothing is maintained anymore. Plus everything inside the park is a huge scam with a 2+ hour wait. There are even lines you stand in to wait in lines. Or you can pay extra fees to skip one of the lines but you must keep to tight schedule and plan you trip 3+ years in advance if you want to ride something without standing in line for 2-4 hours.

Last time I was there I rode Avatar. It was a cool ride. But I stood in line long enough for the people in front of me to watch both movies.

if this is true then I take this >>105920195 back and will punch myself in the balls in penance.

Here is a more recent use of the same tech: https://youtu.be/MYV2z4QbrxY?feature=shared&t=305

I ended up on this because they did a low budget conversion of the old Vikings ride and we didn't know until we got in line. Don't ask me how we missed the big "FROZEN" sign up front someone in our group was excited to ride Vikings again. I was very impressed by it and if you combined this same tech to make Waifubot it would sell like hot cakes. Like I said it looks much better in person.

Ride was even enjoyable. I've never seen Frozen but I'm sure people that love it go ape shit for this ride so I understand why they converted away from the old one.

those animatronics look amazing.

Disneyland really feels like a place where reality parodies art. It’s unreal, like straight out of a Fallout game. Of course, it’s the other way around.

Wasn't retirement going to be illegal in epcot?
