The "Magic Journies" show was my first exposure to high-quality polarized
3D projection.  It absolutely blew me away, and is probably primarily
responsible for my current interest in 3D photography and 3D projection.

Here's what I know from Disney's Web site (http://www.disney.com):

"A spectacular new addition to Tomorrowland will be found in the former
Magic Eye Theatre, which currently presents the 3-D adventure "Captain EO."
In its place will be the new "Honey, I Shrunk the Audience" show, combining
latest 3-D film techniques with other state-of-the-art theatrical effects.
The show includes such surprises as a floor which actually moves in
coordination with the film. A first generation of the show is currently
found at EPCOT in Walt Disney World, and has proven extraordinarily popular
among Guests. During the show, Wayne Szalinski (from Disney's hit "Honey"
films) is presented an "Inventory [sic] of the Year" award from the
Imagination Institute. But like in the movies, things go a bit awry during
this hilarious show and the audience is ultimately "shrunk" by one of
Szalinski's inventions."
