I really need to see it.
Every time I had a fastpass it went down and never recovered ( happened thrice )

Now I am basing this off the original design and intent, but the WDW version of Space Mountain is indeed the better version. I know it has gotten rough over the years and needs a retracking, but the full scope of the attraction was larger and more ambitious than it's Disneyland counterpart. The original queue was vast and beautifully done, it was the perfect act 1 to the whole experience (until you got to the switchback queue) You begin your journey already in space, so the queue was designed to look like you were in a space station, preparing to rocket back to earth. The 3-D window displays were so very unique, music and back tracks were ominous and epic...and in the main queue area you could see the glowing rockets on the night skey. The ride itself had a mix of turns and drops, not just the gentle inclines that Disneyland does, and ends with a walk through of the home of the future... The overall original attraction was so much more then a rollercoaster in darkness... it was a journey... It is sad it has become rough, and the show scenes and original score are long gone, but yes! The WDW Spce Mountain was definitely the better version...

Splash and Haunted mansion at WDW are definitely superior.

There is an scene in the movie that definitively shows something similar to what you see at Test Track.
Also, Cars 3 is definitively close to Cars 1, Cars 2 was utter crap.

They seem to be going on schedule for Disneyland, I dont think they care THAT much on DisneyWorld much lol.
I mean, now that Pandora is a huge hit...
The hat was also "temporary". Anyone remembers how long that thing lasted? lol

Far fewer animatronics, though, but the ones the Florida version does have exhibit superior animation, and the considerably slower log speed gives the rider more time to enjoy them.

DHS, Epcot and DAK have great streetmosphere. MK has lots in FL, MSUSA, FL, LS, and TL. There is still a ton of it around. Also Big Thunder is longer and faster with better views at MK than DL. SM also has more drops.
Space Mt at WDW has the better queue and track layout. Space Mt at DL has the better cars, audio, and ride effects. The DL version does have the nod to John Hench in the queue, but the Star Tunnel music outweighs that.

I'm not wishing for it to miss its deadline, It just wouldn't surprise me. Of all the recent lands, the Imagineers are under a lot of pressure not to mess Star Wars up. There's very few Pandora fanboys out there.
At least I'm not some conspiracy theorist who still thinks it will never open (yet has now shifted their stance to being "won't open simultaneously" with DL).

And has shifted even more to "it will be budget cut" and that the Launch Bay is an indication of what the land will be like. I mean ... LMAO

As ugly as the BAH was it was FAR better executed than the 'Launch Bay' and it was only supposed to be in place for ONE YEAR. The BAH was a 'Disney' production in all senses of the word.

No matter what the insiders say the TDO Accountaneers will have the final say in the matter.

Except that's not exactly how these things work.

I AM ignoring the concept art because at WDW the finished product never looks anywhere close to the concept art, Wait there was ONE exception and that was 'Tiki Shrug' at the Poly there the concept art matched the pathetic finished product
Just show me what amazing things Disney has done recently, Cars Land was about the last Disney production which amazed me. Since then it's all 'might have beens'

Pandora but you're set in your stance so I doubt you give it any credit

New Builds: Pandora, Harambe expansion, Shanghai's Pirates, Roaring Rapids exploration area, Mystic Manor.
Entertainment: Mickey and the Magical Map, some of the SDL shows, some (though not all versions of WoC), Frozen at DCA, Muppets Great moments in history.
Disney Springs is fantastic actually.
Lots more things that are great, but more controversial purely based on the IP-phobia.
