Many years ago, our family visited Disneyword. There was a neat exhibit, which was a 360 degree/Omnimax theatre , with a story about Jules Verne. The show was narrated by a robot, with the voice of Robin Williams. The family across the street from s jst came back from Orlando-they said they didn’t see this. I hope it is still around. ---

Wikipedia has [a list of all the current attractions at DisneyWorld](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_attractions_at_the_Walt_Disney_World_Resort). Scanning it quickly, I didn’t see anything Verne-ish. I’m assuming “The Seas with Nemo and Friends” is referring to [this Nemo](http://lapbooksbycarisa.homestead.com/nemo_4.jpg), and not [this Nemo](http://www.vulcaniasubmarine.com/Production%20Artwork_files/image018.jpg). ---

You’re talking about the Monsanto-sponsored CircleVision 360 exhibit in the Tomorrowland part of the Magic Kingdom at Disneyworld, which also included Mission to Mars and Space Mountain. CircleVision 360 used 9 screens and movies filmed simultaneously by 9 cameras. The effect was amazing (and for some a bit disturbing). The film you saw was called _From Time To Time_. The exhibit closed in 2007, I think. ---

The exhibit was originally shown at the New York World’s Fair of 1964-65 and was GE’s Carousel of Progress. That version had one major difference (other than a lack of Robin Williams): it really was a carousel. You got in one of the sections, and the seats would revolve around the central area, moving from one time period to another.\* The later versions had the stage turning and the seats remaining fixed. \*They were all similar: an audio-anamatronic father of the household would describe all the new appliances in their home (a surprisingly large percentage of which were made by GE). ---

The Carousel of Progress is not the same thing as CircleVision 360. You’d never describe the Carousel as a movie, so I vote for CircleVision. The CircleVision theater in Disneyland is now part of the queue for the Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters ride. ---

The actual attraction you are looking for was (yes, was, sorry!) called [Timekeeper](http://waltdatedworld.bravepages.com/id235.htm). Robin Williams provided the voice of Timekeeper and Rhea Perlman was the voice of 9-Eye, the time traveling robot. That space has been replaced with the [Monster’s, Inc. Laugh Floor](http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/parks/magic-kingdom/attractions/monsters-inc-laugh-floor/) which is a fairly cute show, but not as entertaining as Timekeeper IMHO. ---

Wow, I remember seeing some movie about the bicentennial in there in about 1975/76ish.
