nWave's New Immersive 3D Ride film, Fly Me To The Moon, Coming to Park Theaters
NEW YORK, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Six Flags, Inc. (NYSE: SIX - News) announced today a partnership with nWave Pictures that will bring the excitement of Apollo 11 and the first walk on the moon to millions of park guests this season.
FLY ME TO THE MOON - 3D, a ride simulation based on the animated feature film releasing this summer, features the voices of Kelly Ripa, Christopher Lloyd and Nicolette Sheridan and will be the featured attraction at 3D theaters at Six Flags Great Adventure, in Jackson, NJ and Six Flags Over Texas, in Arlington, TX.
The fact based fictional film follows three teenaged flies on an incredible adventure as they become part of history - stowing away inside the space helmets of Commanders Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins on the Apollo 11 mission that marked America's first manned landing on the moon.
FLY ME TO THE MOON is the first-ever computer animated feature film designed, created and produced from the first frame, exclusively for the 3D experience. "This innovative film is a great example of the kind of unique, first-run entertainment that our guests have come to expect at the new Six Flags," said Dan Weinberg, Six Flags Vice-President of Entertainment. "The collaboration with nWave allows us to continue the expansion and diversification of our in-park product."
NWave Founder and Director Ben Stassen:
"We applaud Six Flags for thinking outside the box and really seizing the opportunity to expose park visitors to this film. As a company that specializes in 3D production and distribution, we're excited about the new alliance with Six Flags. Their family of parks offer nWave the perfect platform to showcase the recreation of the Apollo 11 flight through the ride film experience that will entertain both adults and children."
FLY ME TO THE MOON - 3D debuts Opening Day at each park - March 1 at Six Flags Over Texas and April 5 at Six Flags Great Adventure.

Nice Bubba lol
Is this coming out as a regular movie release as well? The link above has a movie trailer along with the 3D clip that is presumably going to Six Flags. Now that I think about it, there is no way they could have recruited those voices for "just" a theme park ride.

Didnt Christopher Lloyd do a "ride/3-d show" for Busch?? Maybe it is just for a theme park ride. Who knows, certainly not me. I'm just a Wendy's Manager.

^ I wonder if the ex produce clerk would know anything about it.
-
I wonder if they are getting rid of the motion seats.
And just making it a 3D Theater.
It doesn't seem like this Film is classified under their "Ride Simulation" category.

^ I would hope so. I usually end up getting a head ache after riding anything in that theater.
-
Its going to be the same seats. Sorry :(
I still think the show will be a huge improvement though.
-
At least there will be something "new" this year besides the new coaster. We're going to need it. :(
-
Sounds like this isn't getting very good reviews.
Or at least one person didn't enjoy their flight to the moon.

I have a horrible feeling they literally took a clip from the movie and are playing it in 3D with moving seats instead of tailoring a 3 minute ride to space that has a beginning and ending.

Ouch I read that . I hope it is not as bad as that one person says . If it is maybe the yellow sponge wasn't as bad as we thought. I always remember a line for Sponge Bob I guess if this is good/bad we will be able to tell by the size of the lines .

Trailer of it..

Looks like it will be aimed for little kids and families... man do i miss the old 3D shows that scared the hell out of me when I was little!
-
So I was going through my FiOS On Demand for the movie channels and low & behold, Fly Me to the Moon is now listed on there. Hmmm is it worth watching it and comparing to the ride? :P
-
I think what is on the ride is a small scene from the movie.
