Video of the lighting -

The wings are particularly striking looks good. Maybe they could of done more accent work on the sides but it looks nice.

It feels like it would be a very intimate space at night time in the parks. Those are my favorites. I can’t wait to see it in person.

So is there going to be a sign out front this? Or no because it was cool when FoP and RotR didn’t have one so no big E-Tickets need signs now.

Watching the lighting in person now and it is hard to see in the video Disney posted, but the movement of light on the fins is a great touch.

I actually really like how the lighting rakes up the roof at night. Not the fondest of the exterior during the day, but some of these night touches are nice.

Gorgeous photo! Already sent it to the fam from your article before seeing you emphasized it here.

I’d love if someone was able to get a photo from within Connections, from farther away (so like Test Track) and the Monorail.

Outstanding picture!

Looks good enough that the purple box in the rear right doesn’t bother me

That thing is ugly.

There has already been a trend of not putting signs - FOP, Navi, Smugglers, ROTR.

At the moment the rolling bushes are blocking the view of the Starblaster from most angles, so the images I posted above are about the only possible views right now. Once it opens there will be more options.

I think where these 4 rides fall into 2 heavily themed and immersive lands that they will be the exception.

I would be surprised if Guardians didn’t have a sign

I'd also be surprised if there weren't a sign. The bigger question is whether it will maintain the continuity of the theming/story and read "Wonders of Xandar," or whether they break the theming because some people will get confused if it doesn't say "Guardians of the Galaxy."

If we don't have one at this point, I doubt we are getting one.

That said, it is a somewhat... worrying trend. I'd expect cast to get lots fo "what ride is this" from the unexperienced.

Looks very impressive.

Agreed. I understand (even if I don't prefer) lack of signage in "immersive themed worlds." However, Epcot isn't one. Unless, that is, when we are in Epcot we are supposed to believe that we are not in Epcot but instead in an immersive Epcot-styled land. We'd have to suspend disbelief and pretend we are "in" Epcot instead of just being in Epcot.

That's taking self-referential to the extreme.

How many rings does GotG represent. I count only one. If it doesn’t meet at least two, does it belong in Epcot?
