Is the teal in the Cinderella tile inlay a reflection, or was it actually modified?

I used "obviously" twice, once to qualify that they clearly don't have photos of the yet-to-be-built project (which they verifiably do not) and once to say that it is not as overtly an insult-to-injury situation as I felt you initially suggested (which I suppose you agree with since you affirm...

Individuals are allowed to react however they want, but the suggestion was that Disney should know better and that this would be an obviously insulting or provocative choice for the scrim. It’s not; such a reaction would not be typical.

It's a rumor someone supposedly overheard. It's very possible it won't even happen. Again, why would anyone get more upset because of a scrim? Get upset over what's being done, but maybe think about not taking a temporary sightline blocker as a personal affront.

There will probably be art of the coming attraction on the solid wood construction walls in other sections. The printed fabric scrims generally use photographs of whatever is being refurbished. It's being replaced instead of refurbished, but they obviously only have photos of the thing that...

You could also just not take a scrim personally. 🤷🏻‍♂️

They actually need to level both it and the current Space Mountain entrance whenever they close it for re-tracking. Ideally, they’d simultaneously give TRON its own gift shop by replacing the standalone bathroom with a gift shop/bathroom combo more in the style of the Shanghai lounge, though...

Much better. Now continue to follow through elsewhere in the land.

Sometimes missing things is not the same as suggesting there is no oversight, routine inspection, or correction of contract work on Disney’s end.

It will indeed be walled off and isolated, only abutting the carpet. Planters always blocked circulation there, and the new planters are shown being installed in the same spot in the latest pictures, just now with alcoves against the bar to accommodate seating. That said, despite the fact that...

I have to assume this was aimed at my earlier post. Just want to point out that I’m generally not down on the new things happening at the parks, and the digital design and print issues are neither specific to this experience nor to Disney within the realm of themed design more broadly. In that...

His takes are typically just matter-of-fact. I honestly would not take it as condescension. 🤷‍♂️

He was just saying that he is not and was never an Imagineer and therefore cannot mentor in that capacity, not that he has no wisdom to offer.

The artwork and the samples on site suggest something more in the teal family than olive this time, which would be more consistent with the rest of the renovation.
