I will say, the return of Soarin' at Epcot was quite the treat.😊 Even though it has been about 8 years since the last time I experienced it back at DCA, seeing this nostalgic attraction shared around from time to time is something that I am grateful for to this day.❤ Of course, Jerry Goldsmith (the person who composed the original music) is a legend and he will be greatly remembered.👍 Perhaps someday I'll return to experience the original version if the opportunity opens up again.😉

Guys, this is the version of Soarin’ that I am also extremely nostalgic for, and would even like if Epcot still had the option to do this version, but we really can’t act like Soarin’ Over _California_ makes more sense than Soarin’ Over the _World_ in a park like Epcot. The new version is better looking than this and also fits in much better where it is. Like I said, I love SOC, but SOtW is better for Epcot.

Hi, thanks for filming this. I preferred this version to the current one, but enjoyed both. Instead of wasting money on Guardians and Ratatouille (at least not in Epcot), I'd prefer they put things like Soarin in the countries that have no "attractions". The films are informational and fun. Also, go back to the fireworks show "Reflections" with its wonderful music.

Thanks for sharing this gorgeous, awe inspiring film. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
