    Thank you for going on that, so that I will never be tempted to, should I find myself in Tennessee. Having been through the 1971 Sylmar Quake, the 1994 Northridge Quake, the 2019 Ridgecrest Quake, I could only sit at my computer, watching this, with an expression of absolute disbelief. Whoever designed that ride has obviously never been in a seismic event, and likely only got their ideas from it from watching Volcano and 10-point-O (a really crappy direct-to-video San Andreas knockoff). I think my IQ dropped a few points just from watching that parade of stupidity.

      山本慈英 まあ「シリアスに」地震という災害をテーマにしてる訳じゃなくて、1974年のパニック映画『大地震』を基にしたアトラクションですしね…。ただ、それ以上に問題なのは、多分このライドって権利元のユニバーサル映画に無許可で運営されてるんですよね。アメリカのユニバーサル・スタジオに以前、どのように地震を再現したのか、特撮の裏側を見せつつ、映画の地震を追体験する『Earthquake: The Big One』ってアトラクション(後にトラム・ツアーに組み込まれました)があって、このビデオのヤツは「駅で地下鉄に乗り込むと地震が発生してしまう」というコンセプトを丸パクリして、勝手にゴリラや下水道のワニだのを追加してるという… ハッキリ言って、米ユニバのオリジナル版は辛うじて地震の怖さもしっかり表現しようとしていた気がしますが、コレは完全なるエンタメになってますね。ちなみに、USJにも作る予定があったんですが、阪神・淡路大震災が人々にもたらした影響を考慮して中止したんですよね… やはり、地震や竜巻、そして洪水などの自然災害を映画にしてしまうアメリカの娯楽の度量の深さが無いと出来ない企画だと思います。

      @@PeterParker-hf8ge そうなんですね!ただUSJにあるアトラクション、バックドラフトは特殊効果がどういうものかを解説しつつ火災の恐ろしさを改めてリアルに教えてくれる内容なので、個人的にはこういうお笑いに走るのはいただけないですね…

      山本慈英 まあ、ユニバーサル・スタジオほど予算がある訳でも、見せ方が上手い訳でも無いので、どうしても「オモシロ要素」というか物量を増やす作戦なってしまうんですよね。ちなみに、有名なユニバーサルのパクりアトラクションとして『Jurassic Jungle Boat Ride』というものがあるのですが、これも同じくテネシー州(こちらはピジョン・フォージ)にあるので、時間と労力があれば是非調べてみて下さい… 酷くてビックリしますよ。
      『バックドラフト』は、映画の特殊効果や火事の恐ろしさだけでなく、消防士の方々へのリスペクトがあるのが本当にイイですよね!最初に作られたユニバーサル・スタジオ・ハリウッドのオリジナルが無くなってしまったので、大阪のものが末長く続くように祈っています。
