Looking forward to Race to Witch Mountain
Monday, March 9th, 2009In 1975, Disney came out with Escape to Witch Mountain. I loved it and have remembered it fondly. Later another version was released and I don’t mind that I missed knowing about it.
Today I’m excited that I’m about to see a preview of the latest version. As a teen I saw the original story as whimsy. As an adult now with this updated version and today’s scientific knowledge, I see the actual scientific possibilities of things like passing you arm through a solid closed door and Warp Drive. And I’ve seen the mind control matter in the form of brainwave or muscle-controlled computers, so it’s not really far-fetched that Sara and Seth move solid objects. There is so much fun stuff in this film that is actually possible — and the what-ifs promise to be as much fun as the plain fun of a good adventure.
I’m looking forward to Race to Witch Mountain.
