The hub definitely did not cost anywhere close to that. Significantly more went into Guardians and it wasn't over $500M. Other than rehabbing CommuniCore East and putting up Plaza/Hall, this entire project was removing some old pavement and installing some new pavement. The lights and the Walt...

The sad part is no it wouldn't have lol, we got the better plan of the two

Obviously nobody is expecting multi-billion dollar structures at EPCOT, but the point of EPCOT failing to build anything architecturally interesting in the modern day is valid. EPCOT's architectural legacy in the 2020s so far is making one building from the 80s look significantly worse, a couple...

What intrigues me most about the idea of Inside Out going into Wonders is what they do with the dome. Realistically, they won't put Inside Out in anything other than the Cranium Command theatre. You can leave Body Wars and Frontiers and all that area empty, but there's no getting around needing...

@marni1971 would know better, but it's my understanding that breaking the original ensured there will never be another there because of some kind of structural reason. It sounds feasible, but I seem to recall there being something precluding it.

It's "intact" the same way the sunken floors in CommuniCore are. Structurally yes, it's there, but modified to the point where it will never be functional again. Speaking under the assumption that they could theoretically "bring it back" - it wouldn't be what was there before. It's no longer...

Resurrecting the original ride is significantly easier said than done, they did a lot of damage with JIYI. You can't put the turntable back, you'd have to do some insane crafty thing like making five dream mobiles that move on their own around and around in circles. The rest? Yeah, it could...

They refer to it as an "other world showcase" pavilion in various places. I assumed it was a remnant of when they were desperately trying to find a way to justify its existence at EPCOT since it's never mentioned in the attraction but they still put it on merchandise. It's insulting because it's...

Guardians is already an outpost for a fake country in not-world showcase and it's insulting too.

On one hand, terrible. On the other, an improvement is an improvement I guess. There is no chance they do a 1:1 restoration of the track unless they do some crazy stuff with the turntable. It'll never work like it did before again.

Apart from what Alicia has said, I've heard nothing about Inside Out. That said, I have heard that they've been looking at Wonders again recently. It would make sense to me if these two are related, however I must reiterate that this happening would be extremely funny to see after they gutted...

I thought the "Apple Store" criticisms of Creations/Connections were a little overblown, but this definitely feels like an Apple Store. Curious to see what this area actually ends up looking like at opening.

They would build a new figure lol, no sense in bringing back one from 40 years ago which has already found a new permanent home. It would probably cost less to make another one than it would to negotiate for the original back.

Bird isn't in Disney's archives, he's in BRC Imagination Arts' "archives" (the company who produced the show and manufactured the figure)

Haha are we talking about DL Railway? Because my "Opening 2019!" merch for WDW Railway would certainly disagree on the "on time" part lol
