Unveiling the ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter the 1995 Television Special featuring Michael Eisner part of New Tomorrowland!

Michael Eisner starts this special report from a remote military installation somewhere in the United States, where some people believe the US Government is hiding the remains of an alien spacecraft.  According to Michael, the idea of aliens from another planet may be closer than some realize, and a member of the audience may be able to experience the next Alien Encounter.   Welcome to the New Tomorrowland Convention Center in Walt Disney World, where humans can get their first taste of the future, presented by X-S Tech, is one of the first alien firms to take advantage of the latest in Extra-Terrestrial technology at the new facility in Walt Disney Worlds new Tomorrowland.

Of course, this is all an elaborate backstory established for the latest Walt Disney World attraction, Extraterrestrial Alien Encounter, which opened in the summer of 1995 at Walt Disney World.  The original attraction was produced by Walt Disney Imagineering and Lucasfilm, leveraging binaural sound for many effects; the attraction was considered too intense for children under 12.    It originally opened December 16, 1994, but closed a month after, it was considered too intense and was redesigned.  After it was retooled the less intense attraction opened in June of 1995.  While many Disney fans enjoyed the darker tone of the attraction, it was permanently closed in October of 2003 to be replaced by Stitch’s Great Escape.
