Hey, I was just checking out the first pictures of the awesome complete rebuilding and retheming of Disneyland's Space Mountain (here if you're interested)
Anyway, it looks like they totally did amazing work with over there, and I know The layout of WDW's Space Mountain is dramatically different and not only is the California building smaller and Disneyland only has one track, but when I was in the Magic Kingdom last Friday, Space Mountain was really the one major attraction that shouted "Fix Me, Clean Me, I wreak of the 70's!," especially after being compared to the killer rehab of the also classic Small World. Does anybody see Space Mountain getting a Small World-like rehab soon, possibly even a Disneyland-like retheming? Not necessarily a complete track replacement, but at least fixing up the queue areas and tunnels?
And what is the deal with the windows in the queue? I have to assume that an interesting depth creating effect once worked in those star fields, but now it just gives me a headache to look at. It seems like a big flat photo of stars in the windows would be a lot better.
Not to completely Bash SM, because the ride itself is still excellent, but maybe if they added a sound system...
