Superheroes! #1


Kathleen and James William abetting Kenneth Feld in thwarting evil doers!

Everything went well and the show got a top rating from all the family.
Shannon said the kids were in the edge of their seats throughout, can't get a better review than that.

Is that an ice tank behind them

From what I am hearing, the pre-sales for their tour are just phenomenal already.

Not a ice tank.

The floor serves as a projection mat - they project images and lasers on it. They also hide characters and objects via camouflage.

I was impressed by the choreography of the fight scenes.

To dads chagrin its not Captain Marvel (Shazam!) but Miss Marvel !?!

The back wall of the stage has a 20-30ft part that rotates out into a flat stage. The back wall, the moving stage and the arena floor all get projected on by images and lasers.

The characters gesture to obvious pre-recorded dialog tracks. There are some impressive stunts. I think one of the crowd favorite is a motorcycle race between Captain American and the Red Skull. They make an impressive vertical jump onto that back wall. And you think over the course of the season, they are going to miss that. I wonder if they have contingency voice tracks ready "OOOF! that hurt" says the Red Skull.

I wish we were at a level of technology to hide the wires, but it didn't prevent my kids from enjoying the show.

Marvel Comics are huge. Movies and TV shows and Comic Cons nationwide prove that.

I enjoyed it, my kids loved it.

Its a Money Maker for sure.
