Does anyone know where Jim was in Epcot American Adventure because I can't find him.

I've seen the American Adventure show, and I think I have someone's home movie of it. But I'm gonna need a little more background information on this...

What's the source that told you he's in there?

Where is he supposed to be?

In a montage? A voice?

It's in the "American Adventure" film they show at the American pavilion at EPCOT, at the end of the production (it used to have the "Golden Dream" song playing over it). Jim's shown near the end, along with plenty of other notable Americans.

There's never a dry eye in the house when that film finishes. Good stuff.

I believe Jim's footage to the final montage was added with the 1993 renovation that re-did the Golden Dream song. I think the only other footage added since has been the firemen footage from September 11th.

Yes, it's definitely worth seeing if you ever make it to EPCOT. I saw it years ago, before Jim had been added in, but it's still a great "mini-history lesson" and a great show.

I made sure to visit American Adventure when we were at Epcot on Monday, and sure enough, there was Jim... and Kermit! And to the left of them in the montage was George Lucas, looking very thin and dark-bearded.

Quite a contrast from the current George, whom I had passed in a hallway just three days before, during Star Wars Celebration V.

Oh, and our guide at the Haunted Mansion told us George had been in the Magic Kingdom the night before, riding the Jungle Cruise.
