Universe of Energy - Martins Complete Ultimate Tribute

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 มิ.ย. 2017
- Continuing my series of my original Futureworld re edits, here is the complete 1982 Exxon pavilion, re edited and remastered for hopefully the best video and audio quality and most complete coverage available. Presented in 720p to maintain the high resolution of the graphics and plans and the quality of the original footage, and to allow the widescreen format to be fully utilised.
Start with the original designs for a solar energy pavilion, and see how the designs evolved through the late 1970s.
With designs finalised, see how the pavilion was laid out, how the ride system and the diorama effects worked and more. Watch the huge building grow from the swamps and finally see highlights of the dedication ceremony.
Next take a full multi angle ride of the original presentation. Walk into the pavilion and start with the full Radok preshow, with flicker-reduced or eliminated multi angle video rendered in 16:9 and full source audio.
Then walk into theatre one and take your seat for the multiplane projection introduction, again with all projection flicker eliminated and with a new clean live audio mix that I hope is the best available.
Things get darker as we move into the diorama, with all its original effects working. Again this is a multi angle edit with authentic clean live stereo mix.
Moving into theatre two is the whole second main show, deflickered and again with a new high quality clean audio mix. Here I've used the whole 16:9 tv screen to simultaneously show more than one 4:3 video clip of the 3 different screens at the same time to cover details that may otherwise be missed.
Onwards into theatre one again for the finale, the whole multiscreen reflected ending is covered in multi angle widescreen with the 4th apex screen shown in full as a picture in picture. Again I hope this is the best available finale quality-wise in the fan community. With source audio.
And then, exit the pavilion and cross to Energy Exchange in Communicore East for a full tour.
A mammoth edit! - บันเทิง

This was my brother's favorite ride at Epcot. He died when he was only 17. I was 11. I'm glad we could have this memory
How did your brother die at 17?
sorry for your loss - some people leave this earth too soon
Might seem not all that today, but when I rode it in 1982, you could hear the audience gasp when the curtain went up revealing the diorama. And then an even LARGER gasp when all the theater vehicles moved forward into it.
For the very first timers, having no idea what this was. It must have been spectacular
I was a little kid. I fully cried tears of joy and awe. LOL.
Um yea I was also a nerd.
Sigh. I loved this - the dinosaurs have always held a special place in my memories. I was at the 1964 World's Fair when Disney created the dinosaurs for the Ford Pavilion.
Mary Adkins Those dinosaurs still exist: just go to Disneyland and ride the railroad!
@@knightofarkronia8652 its the originals too from what I understand

23:58 This just SCREAMS 1980s.
This ride was so accurate! It predicted EVERY energy source we use today!
I'm telling you...people will miss out when rides like this are gone! We are waiting an hour or two to ride thrill rides that last only 2 minutes. This attraction is 30 minutes long! Awesome in my book...
Jonathan Childers it is long but in it's current state, it's incredibly boring. The original version was way more entertaining. The last time I rode it I could barely stay awake.
The whole Ellen thing totally ruined this attraction. In it's original state it was awesome.
At this time Walt Disney World has removed almost all of what I have wanted to see my whole life. The new stuff looks cool, and I will still go but I really wish they didn't remove original attractions.
@@AroundIndiana That's ironic because they replaced the original version because it was supposed to be boring. I always thought it was pretty exciting.
Dennis Mitchell no
I remember riding this in the 80’s with about 25 other people...lol. I was by myself for the afternoon, and I had no idea how scary it would be in the dinosaur kingdom all by myself! This ride was absolutely massive inside, and 25 other guests did not provide any sense of security on the giant, moving, platform seating. 😱😵😲
The aroma and fog when you first enter the lagoon was amazing. It was like being hit by a wave of thick jungle humidity.
Martin thank you for preserving and presenting this ride in it's original form. I have many great memories from yearly family vacations to Magic Kingdom since 1973. When we visited the then new Epcot Center in 1983 I was 13 and absolutely loved science and physics. Epcot Center was my dream park! I'm sad to see it becoming just another park with nothing but entertainment featuring Disney IP. They are taking away the Edutainment aspect of Epcot bit by bit. When they redid UoE into Ellen's Energy Adventure I was willing to give it a go. Little did I know what a disaster they turned it into. It's as if they said, "Oh, you want edutainment? here you go, Energy as presented to a kindergarten class". I've only been on it a few times since. I look forward to "riding" and experiencing more of your videos of Epcot Center as I remember it from my childhood. Thank You.
Absolutely loved this. My favorite attraction at Epcot as a kid. Thanks for paying tribute to a great ride. Now we will be waiting for 4 hours for a 2.5 minute thrill ride themed to guardians of the galaxy. CALGON, TAKE ME AWAY!!
I remember this well. It was like a science class that came to life. very 1980s feel to it.
Wow. I'll never forget the smell of this ride as you enter the dinosaur part. So cool to see this memory.
Thank you so much! Man, oh MAN, does this bring back memories! I still love Epcot (thanks in no small part to the International Festival of the Arts,) but I really miss THIS Epcot, where education and entertainment really went hand-in-hand. While I didn't HATE "Ellen's Energy Adventure," I consider it lightweight fluff compared to this. This attraction took its subject matter seriously, yet presented it in SUCH an entertaining and IMMERSIVE way that Ellen--didn't. The Radok preshow, the swooping pterodactyl at 37:28 (that covers ALL THREE 70mm screens) and the electrifying finale all became permanently etched in my brain the minute I saw them back in '85 or '86. I didn't realize until watching this video just have awesome the musical score was...but I've always loved the two songs. Years ago, when I finally got a copy of the 1991 version of "The Official Album of Disneyland and Walt Disney World," I was thrilled to find those two songs included.
This was one of my favorite rides at epcot. Nice tribute Martin Smith.
Brings tears in my eyes great time with mom
Even in the rough quality, this video is incredible! I was there for this ride back in the 80's. When that curtain rose and you saw the silhouettes of the dinosaurs, it was shocking. And then the car moved toward them! Total immersion experience. Sights, sounds, smells and very humid. Incredible memories - thank you for posting!
♪ Energy, these are a few of your faces, glowing in timeless places, bringing our lives new graces...
♪ Energy, there is no living without you; we must keep learning about you, and now is the time to find how to!
Martin - Thank you. Your "Ultimate Tribute" videos are nothing less than Fantastic! I went to EPCOT Center for the first time in November 1987, when I was 28. And for me, from 1987 until 1993-1994, the Future World side of EPCOT Center was at its magical best.
These Martinsvids are cool very well explained and filmed very well also, and it almost looks like the person filming the video knew youtube was going to exist someday 😉😊. Thank you Martin keep the videos coming. :)
this was a great ride and way ahead of its time
Just awesome! Thanks for this video. I really loved the original Universe of Energy. Some people found it boring but not me. I loved it as a kid. I remember being inspired to study engineering because of it. The closing song used to reverberate in my head for hours after seeing the attraction. I can remember humming it while looking out the window of the EPCOT monorail on the ride back to the Ticket and Transportation Center heading back to our hotel. This brings back some really awesome memories of great family trips down to EPCOT Center in my childhood. Thanks again!
Compass West Did you actually end up studying engineering later on?
Thanks for asking. I did start out studying engineering. And much as a result of the inspiration drawn from most of the original Future World attractions at EPCOT Center. Years removed, I really know engineering was my calling. That said, I switched to accounting in the midst of my college years. Flash forward 20 years and I've pretty much regretted making that switch every day since. The dream is still there however and its helped me to inspire my children to see the importance of not settling with a path that they are not inspired to travel.
Yes, this ride was such an engineering feat that made me giddy when I first rode it. And the little trick at the end brought you back to the room you were in before but now covered with mirrors and swirling energy around then boom, show over and curtains down and you realize you were right back where you started.
Just Imagine the ride was a nifty concept. I can just remember as a kid moving into the dinosaur room and totally being blown away. The attraction was popular in its’ day and I can remember other park guests commenting on it in the early 80’s. The attraction didn’t age well however and the movies became quickly outdated with time... it became hard to “sell” the original brand of EPCOT fun. Don’t get me wrong. I loved it. But times change and so does the management and imagineers that design and improve upon the parks. And before you know it, the original idea is changed by ideas of the people that follow.

I love the universe of energy in 1989, 1995, and 2013 was camping out at fort wilderness resort from California
Martin, thanks so much for posting this! I was listening to the original EPCOT entrance music today and the UoE ride and theme was always one of my favorites. My grandfather took my brother and I there when we were kids and the memories brought back by watching this tonight are overwhelming. I only wish I could have shared this ride and so many of the now-gone originals with my kids.. thank you sincerely sir!!!
nice tribute video, full of interesting facts. i also heaved a sigh when you used the incidental music from the monsanto-sponsored "adventure through inner space"
Wonderful!! Only saw this version 4 times, 1993, 1994 and 2x 1995. Only got to see the Communicore exhibit once, 1993. I was disappointed in 94 when it was no longer there.
Thank your for preserving this wonderful memory. As the ride systems at EPCOT wore out, they were replaced with lessor rides. Disney's theme parks earned so much money, they should've expanded it, yet they put their funds into money losing endeavors.
Thank you for this! I worked at Energy in the early 90’s and have such fond memories of that building. I even remember my music prompts to close and open the theater doors. Thankfully I never had to wear the burnt orange costumes, by the time I trained there we had just switched to the blue cotton ones.
This was very spot on as to the many forms of energy we use nowadays
only got to ride the original once, as a little girl, back in '93. This video caused a huge flood of memories to just come *rushing* back; forgot how majestic the classic ending was. Thank you SO much for all your videos
This ride predicted everything we use in our energy use today!
SIMPLY MARVELOUS, Mr. Smith! You captured everything in the attn except the bouncy synthesized Entry Music. You can hear just a bit of it as we enter Theater One. I used to listen to the tapes I made on my Walkman units. Sadly, they are all broken and irreplaceable...
Thank you!!! Your tributes are amazing and this update is no exception. I have looked for years to find decent video of the finale that captured all of the visuals (still get goose bumps remembering my 10 year old girl self watching the animation of the girl growing up and becoming an astronaut!). Thanks for bringing the happy memories back to life!
this is probably my favorite of the opening day pavilions. the technology that went into making this show is so cool. thx for sharing Martin. :)
Thank you for this!!! This amazing attraction is sorely missed!😢
Thank you so much for this! My family went to Disney World when I was 6 or 7 years old, and the only thing I still vividly remember is EPCOT and the Universe of Energy ride. It's been 35 years, but I always remembered and loved the tune of the theme song. Thanks to Disney's draconian copyright protection, it's impossible to find the song for sale, but you did me one better -- a virtual recreation of what I saw and heard.
Really great to see all the old films again Martin! Thank for another masterpiece!
We miss your great music Ricky.
R.I.P.
The intro was really impressive when you were actually there, with the surround sound and the tiger walking towards you.
ANOTHER ONE!!! On point video my Disney dude. Very much appreciated as always. Your dedication doesn't go unnoticed by us fans. Btw.... I'm Prince Thomas on WDWMAGIC
...the best exhibit on the block; opened at a time when Disney still stuck to Walt's ideals for edutainment (another of those Sherman Brothers' made up compound words) and not revenues and profits. I could see this exhibit a thousand times and still be inspired.
Bravo!! Bravo!! This has made an impact on my life. Thank you from the bottom of my Walt Disney Heart .💕🎶💕🎶
Absolutely outstanding video. This is how I remember EPCOT. Education through entertainment. Thank you for what is, frankly, a gift - a lesson on the history of the show, the attraction, its development, how it worked and its vision. Absolute kudos and a subscription well earned.
The attractions having theme songs that sing the name of the ride is so cheesy, but in a charming, early-80s way.
Although I never got to ride this version of the Universe of Energy, I gotta admit: it looks pretty cool.
Disney's Longest Ride Ever! And so hyper cool the first time that wall opens up and the whole theater moves forward into that swamp! Then it breaks apart and wanders through a prehistoric land. Simply stunning. And talk about ride capacity! 1900 per hour about 20,000 riders a day. Only Haunted Mansion, Pirates, and Small World have more capacity.
Thank you for this video. Great to see this attraction that I hadn't seen in a long time.
Your shots of the original ending are incredible! TBH, I always dislike the movie after the Dinorama supreme, but the theater 1 ending was awesome! It took me a while to figure out I was in the same theater that I had originally entered. The theater was transformed. Too bad Ellen had to take over.
Ellen's a stupid bitch.
No no no, it's Judy who was stupid. I remember in the show, her nickname was "Stupid Bitch Judy." Almost positive.
Now guardians of teh galaxy will take over you got your wish no more ellen
I absolutely ADORE the Dinosaur section, but that's probably because it's very inspired by the Fantasia movie, which was the very first movie I've ever watched in my life, and it remains, to this day, one of my favorite Disney movies. I wish I could've seen this when it was up, but sadly, it changed to Ellen's Energy Adventure when I was one year old. Alas, poor original Universe of Energy...I shall never know the true beauty that you created.
Iconic!!! 👏🏼
This ride is so awesome to explore energy challenges and potentials for tomorrow. But now the Universe of Energy ride is going away the dinosaurs will be the memory in existence.
thanks for the memories, thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks to someone who knew EPCOT as I did, and when it was the best park in the state. If you have more of the opening music that you used for this piece, I'd love to hear it. It was used at the opening of The Living Seas and and when the park itself opened in the mornings. I haven't been able to find it, but do have it in a piece I edited for the Seas opening. I loved Universe of Energy. Too bad they ruined it with Ellen. It seems the place is on a total decline and it's simply another kiddy park. Thanks for posting your tribute.
Well done. Thanks for posting.
Beautiful ❤️ thank you so much for this vid.
Disney needs to bring this back! I don't care if they plan on turning this into a "Guardians of the Galaxy" ride. EPCOT is supposed to be an educational park with rides that focus on teaching something while still maintaining that theme park ride aspect. What Disney should have done with this ride was remodel it and continue to focus on energy but have the new subject be about alternative eco-friendly forms of energy since that's the direction we're headed.
Oh my god the dedication show---I was so expecting Barry Gibb to pop out!
lol
What a wonderful video! Your hard work is most appreciated! Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for your tribute. I miss Epcot Center.
Wow! Phenomenal production!
Yet another amazing video Martin. I remember the original version of this attraction as if it were the one that shut down just a couple weeks ago. I was absolutely enthralled by every moment of this as a kid. This attraction epitomized edutainment and, even with Ellen's version, it is a shame that it is gone to become what it will be. I fully credit the original EPCOT Center with my love of learning and technology. It changed me as a kid and I wish my son could've experienced it the way it once was.
Nicely done sir! Bravo!
I loved this ride so much Thank you Dad
We first visited in October 1988 and the show still seemed cutting edge at that time. We didn't know it was already 6 years old.
One thing I've always thought about it is that the graphics in the pre-show seem to be a bit more "modern" than those in the main show, which leads me to believe that maybe the pre-show was produced only just in time for the opening in September 1982 whereas the main show may have been ready a bit earlier. Therefore they were able to put more modern effects in the pre-show such as the swirling galaxy effect.
Andy JS there was (obviously) a bit of CGI in the preshow. The theatre one main show was purely hand drawn multiplane animation - the largest ever produced in that format.
I can’t imagine how amazing it would have been to be a designer on the original Epcot
I know this ride by heart just about even though I never once went on it!
I eagerly await your re-edits for Journey into Imagination and Horizons!
BlueDragon992 yup especially the land
this was such an amazing ride back in the day. I remember every seat being filled every time we rode it. It had that great high energy catchy 80s music and lasers etc in the last room. Now's just a shell of it's original self, and pretty boring. I like Ellen and Bill Nye, but it's time for a change.
What would be amazing is if they do close it, if they would bring back the original movies and soundtrack for a limited time. That would be so cool. It's not like they don't have the original films stashed away somewhere.
They kind of did that the summer between the closing of the original and the opening of Ellen. Martian has video of it, and it doesn't work out the way you think it would unfortunately.
Love it as always!
Amazing. Bravo!
I miss this attraction and it was a great learning experience plus the theme song was catchy. It really opened my eyes to the different kinds of energy we have out there. If Ellen and that stupid Guardians coaster was not planned, they could have updated the original and showed what the future was and will be. Thank you Martin for these tributes...especially this.The old Epcot was so much better than the new and how the Disney Company is treating it is incomprehensible!
Great video as always!
Woo! Can't wait to get into this one! Notification Squad!
ThatDreamfinderGuy I know me too
Fantastic. Happy days.
Most excellent job! Thank you.
I love the groovy song at the end
33:02 "Don't hit me!"
Very nice!!
Am I the only one who liked both versions of Universe of Energy?
No, I like both versions for what they are.
I also liked both versions.
Disney makes great rides and puts on excellent shows
22:40 is when the actual attraction starts.
30:30 for “Energy (You Make the World Go ‘Round)”
Thank you for another wonderful video! When I went there as a kid I think I spent more time fascinated by how the vehicles moved than the dinos. My parents worked at Exxon at the time so we got to enter by the VIP door. Really love the style of the building. They just don't make buildings like that anymore. And that awesome music and singing! What is the music starting at 5:30 from?
dragonheadthing thank you! The music is from the 1983 park promo VHS. I was lucky to be able to use it.
Only one word excellent
I don't know what you do with the audio but some of this restoration is phenomenal.
This ride predicted it all!
Thanks Martin! Looking forward to seeing the new Horizons one next month!
liked before the video started. lol keep it up!!!
21:12 It wouldn't be a Disney opening ceremony without a cringey musical number. ;)
...welcome back to the 70's and 80's.
Very cool! I tried to remember from when I was a kid but all I remember is Ellen's version. I think I find Ellen's version more entertaining. Thanks for doing this!
It hurts so much knowing that I'll never experience this, Wonders of Life, or the rest of the original EPCOT Centre. Even though I went in 2006, we could only afford one day at one park, so naturally, we chose Magic Kingdom (duh). Don't get me wrong, MK is rad as hell, but knowing now that I totally could have seen a Future World far less drab than what we have now will always be an immense source of disappointment. No lie, the first thing I would do with a space time machine would be to go back to opening day. Followed up immediately afterwards with going again October 1st 1996 so I could experience the badass SEGA display in Innoventions (fuck yeah NiGHTS), and Wonders of Life.
It's unfortunate that this attraction gained a reputation for being boring, because it had some neat ideas behind it.
I think they should have separated the dinosaur segment, the drawing force of the ride, and made the other films an optional experience. There was a lot to see in Epcot, and expecting guests to spend so much time at just one attraction was kind of asking a lot.
I didn't mind the Ellen retheme, but it did date itself rather quickly.
ok this is comoletely unrelated to uoe but what is the music disney rides use for grand openings? it was at the end of DLP's ToT opening and ypu used it on a test track video.
I was wondering are all these from Disney world?? If so I’ve never been to Disney world?? I don’t live in that State.
was also wondering are these Vids. from Epcot center?? They are all pretty interesting and cool!!
Yes this attraction existed in Epcot center, this is the first incarnation... there was an update featuring Ellen Degeneres and Bill Nye which was not as good (imo) and did not feature the preshow screen with the moving panels... having said that, unfortunately... as of a few years ago it was dismantled and now they are turning the pavilion into a Guardians of the Galaxy roller coaster. Hope you found this information useful ! ☺️
Those opening attraction dancers. Does anyone know what they are called? Like...Kids of the Kingdom over at MK...si there a name for them? ha ha ha ha
Great video about this ride - unfortunately the ride is kind-of boring after you have been on it once or twice. They really need to update it.
Who did the acoustic cover of "Energy (You Make The World Go Round)" starting at about 18:10?
Tony Goldmark Rob Moline
Rob Moline performed the original version, from the original ride's pre-show. I'm asking who did the acoustic cover heard in this video. Was that Moline too?
That`s right. This was him too.
Where did the acoustic recording come from?
A private performance some years ago.
ARE YOU KIDDING DISNEY REMOVED THAT INCREDIBLE RIDE FOR THAT-
They had the best coaster in the park and now they ruined it
@MartinVidsDotNet In 0:18 What's the name of that music you used in the beginning of that video and at the end of all your project videos?
The Exxon sting from the original preshow.
@marni1971 I heard this in 23:38 too! Thank you!
Anyone know where I can listen to the music used in the preview in its instrumental form?
Ellen and Bill Nye have long overstayed their welcome.
I had no idea about the upstairs VIP room overlooking the diorama. That would have been so cool.
I say ditch Ellen, and add my home-boy Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Nye and Tyson would be a strong team.
Gamora and her team are taking her place.
Oh god! I so rather see that over Guardians of the Marketing Nonsense
Me too.
I HATE GOTG.
That would be amazing! :D
5:06 looks like a scene from the O Canada circlevision movie
this would be awesome to bring back. I was sick and tired of the Ellen Energy jeopardy theme!
They cant now now it will be guardians of the galaxy
@@jaydenchrist6152 What is it like?
@@sirm45 it will be a rollercoaster made by vekoma that goes forward and backwards kind of like a family launch Boomerang that spins
Hey Martin! I'm just curious, since you've filmed so many WDW openings - did you go to the opening of Pandora?
Thanks for your vids, I'm on my second cycle of watching many of them!
michelleheafy nope. Seeing Avland later this year.
Nice. We went last Sunday - it was great. Have fun!
Why does some of the music in the beginning of the main show sound like Adventure Thru Inner Space.
windows 95 because it was! It was a rescored version of it.
