Laugh Floor at Walt Disney World

Similar to my last post, this post will also be about computer-generated figures interacting with the humans. Unlike the last post, this really works. Disney has several human-cartoon interaction shows in their parks.

At Walt Disney World they have a show called Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor where characters from Monster's Inc. come out and crack jokes with the audience. Instead of just a pre-recorded show, the cartoon characters actually interact with the audience. For example, a two-header monster comes out and asks guests where they are from. Based on the response of the guest, they react accordingly. Its June and a guest says they are from Arizona, the monster might insist that it is freezing cold in Arizona and start shivering. The Laugh Floor works because of the corny humor and the wow factor of cartoon characters interacting with you in real time.
