EPCOT Spaceship Earth refurbishment coming soon?

[MakeYourFancyFly]

Hey all. As we know, the Spaceship Earth refurbishment project that was supposed to happen in 2020 is fully dead. I can't help but wonder if once Test Track is finished, Disney could turn their eyes to another EPCOT attraction for a refurb. Spaceship Earth is in dire need as the current iteration has been open since 2007, and the descent scene is painfully outdated.

I think @DreamfinderGuy has mentioned that this is a possibility in the past, but officially there is no indication and I haven't heard the rumor mill go on this in a while.

Last I heard the plan was still SSE after Test Track, but its been at least six months now since the last time I've heard anything. I think we'll see it before the decade is through, the current show really can't run for much longer.

I sure hope so, as a big fan of SSE and EPCOT. I really hope they avoid IP, especially if Test Track rly pops off (it should)

Honestly, them just redoing the descent would be a wonder to behold.

I mean there has been some slight doubt creeping in on things like the rumor tracker and on that space thread but as far as I can tell it probably is still the plan. I do think it’ll be next too. Especially with the lounge. Rumor mill has been dead in general so don’t think too much about it.

Anything at Epcot would be nice after the mess they made of it.

1) They’ve already spent a ton of money on the EPCOT reimagining which they said is complete
2) it’s been taken off the list after already having been shelved
3) it’s AAs are holding up better than some of their new and improved ones

Define what this means?

That's really the only thing they should do. Most of the ride is excellent as-is, and any changes are more likely to be a downgrade than an upgrade.

Think they can get GM to pay for it?
