In addition, there are some photos of the Ride Operator's manual used at Back To The Future: The Ride at Universal Studios Hollywood. Immersive Media - Part 3: “Simulation rides were a logical extension of early experiments in audience engagement, the Back to the Future - The Ride and RideFilm Theaters led Doug Trumbull to advance large-screen projection, refine physical, auditory and visual co-ordination, develop hemispherical domes, and create a more advanced orthogonal motion-base. Doug observes emerging opportunities resulting from advances in modern digital cinematography, digital post-production, and digital projection. He depicts film as a constantly changing flow of pixels instead of individual frames as an applied concept in 3D film-making, eliminating many inherent problems. He suggests possibilities in virtual reality applications and his own efforts to make content indistinguishable from reality, such as his own patented retinal display technology.“ ~ Immersive Media - Part 3, video courtesy: Douglas Trumbull Posted for entertainment and educational purposes only.

Ft: annabloom, Jeris “Back to the Future: The Ride was a simulator ride at Universal Studios theme parks. It was based on and inspired by the Back to the Future film series and is a mini-sequel to the 1990's Back to the Future Part III. The ride was previously located at Universal Studios Florida and Universal Studios Hollywood, where it has since been replaced by The Simpsons Ride, and at Universal Studios Japan where it will be replaced by Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem. The ride story centered on a first-person adventure through time, in pursuit of Biff Tannen. Steven Spielberg, the executive producer of the movies, served as a creative consultant for the ride. It was the only project in the Back to the Future franchise to star Christopher Lloyd's character, Dr. Emmett L. Brown, as the lead protagonist.“ ~ Wikipedia Timeline: 1990: The ride movie is filmed May 2, 1991: Back to the Future: The Ride opens in Universal Studios Florida June 4, 1993: Back to the Future: The Ride soft-opens in Hollywood June 12, 1993: Official opening in Hollywood March 31, 2001: Back to the Future: The Ride opens in Japan March 30, 2007: The ride is closed in Florida September 3, 2007: The ride closes in Hollywood May 14, 2008 The Simpsons ride opens in Hollywood Seen in the video: Douglas Trumbull - Film Director Universal Studios Hollywood Universal Studios Florida / Universal Orlando Resort Thomas F.
