Closing of Tower of Terror (WDW)

[MisterPenguin]

As of recently there's discussion about anything at all substantial using that IP in WDW.

I'm having a bit of trouble parsing that sentence. Was there supposed to be a negative in there somewhere, or have I failed at Britishese?

Hey y'all. The Galaxy dudes may not be swinging it at all to the swamps apart from teeny tiny lil' things.

Better?

Whoaaaah I like the sound of that

So is EPCOT slated to get anything to spruce up FW, or will it just continue to rot?

Oh, good! We both speak Freedomese!

Increases the odds for The Rocketeer then I would guess.

Woohoo.

FW plans continue to develop.

IF all goes to plan I'd expect only Test Track to not change in some way.

Love the Guardians but I can visit them in DCA. Glad to hear maybe cooler heads prevailed in the Epcot plans?

Well, the change to Mission Space is happening in... <check my signature>

Does anyone know anything more about this? I'm surprised there hasn't been more chatter. The shorter amount of time doesn't really seem like a full overhaul can be executed, but who knows.

The construction work is limited in scope and not necessary for the update.

I know you said this won't be EPCOT Center. but in your seasoned opinion will what is happening be better or worse than the 1994-present Period, If you can?

 

[montyz81]

Not at the moment that I know of.

As of recently there's discussion about anything at all substantial using that IP in WDW. I'm not saying this has or will change plans for Energy, but it has come up.

How do you hear all this? So cool that we have insider knowledge here on the boards.

Personally I feel too few corporations own WAY too many things. I would like to see legislation to end these corporate monopolies. A company can only grow so much until the strain becomes too much and the gravy train collapses.

Fair enough although I don't personally think Disney can be classed as a monopoly and again personally I don't think marvel was a bad purchase at all given the success it has had and the merchandise it drives. But hey ho each to their own opinion

Sorry, I was referring to the Mission: Space refurbishment. I'm wondering if it will be a simple refresh, or a substantial change in experience.

If you can get your head around the IP infusion it could be better than today. Assuming it all comes to fruition. And certain proposals are dropped.

But it will be a very different park to today's and yesterday's.

I can, assuming it fits. I have actually been lobbying for an Inside Out re-invigoration of Wonders of Life . and as long as The Land, Mission Space and Spaceship Earth don't get IP infusions I can make peace with it. Energy, I am still holding my breath on.

Will there be a coherent theme that connects everything? Even if that theme is radically different.

I would even be happy if Mission Space used the Wonders Of Life building to be the rest of the pavilion... Get off the ride and take a shuttle across a martian landscape to Mars Base... and then fit the old WOL with a could spiffy new attractions...

I'd hope so. What I know of so far looks promising.

(And a few other things made me want to cry but hopefully they're not happening)
