I think WDW's money is...Not Siemens.

If its Seimens' money we're talking about being diverted from the ending of SSE, then where did it go? What else does Seimens sponsor in Epcot besides IllumiNations? If Disney is diverting the money elsewhere in Epcot, then it must be their own, right?

This is one confusing situation. Either way, the walkway looks nice and maybe I'll get to see it eventually...

No, Disneys money is going elsewhere into the park. Siemens are still funding the finale when they can.

Maybe the money went here

The Siemens AG has agreed to settle a lawsuit brought against it by the German and US governments. The company, which was rocked by numerous bribery scandals, will pay over US$1.3 billion in fines.

I wonder if that has anything to do with me bribing a CM to let me pull down a curtain...:lookaroun

(On a related question, anyone know if the RN in First Aid are applied through WDW
Casting or from Memorial Hospital, it being the sponsor?)
I have a friend of the family who works in the "aid" station as a RN they are employed thru WDW not the hospital network. And the pay reflects it as she tells us but she also states she would not give it up for anything.

Does the green match the color of the "new" Innoventions signs?:lookaroun

I wonder if that Blue and Green look is coming soon...:D

I think it does. It probably is just on the breezeway to Soarin'...
And who knows? Maybe the colors for EPCOT this year would be that!

What does Soarin' have to do with this?:wave:

I was referring to the Innoventions Visual Upgrad which is rumored to be in Green and Blue.:D

I think EPCOTPluto believed you might be referring to the buildings themselves getting the blue and/or green paint job and not just the walkways.

Personally, I would say repaint the buildings back to their original color scheme, and then have blue and green neon/lighting to distinguish them. If it is necessary to paint them to represent that rumored blue and green look, then a light powder blue for both with the support trim being blue and green respectively.

Ah...Gotcha. Sorry!

And I agree with this! Silverish Blue would be nice. Then have the Blue and Green accent it. The signs already do a great job.

Yes, the signs do a nice job of conveying this rumored re-coloring. While I think they're a bit cartoony and not really futuristic, I like how they're green in the day and then blue at night. Great idea whoever thought of that color/lighting scheme. :)

Never noticed that...I'll have to look next time.:D


Yeah, they do look a bit commercial and cartoony. I say make a logo. The old Innov logo was nice (Hand with SSE Lightbulb), but of course...Communicore...:rolleyes::lol:


Funnily enough, they used it on a pin..

And yes, I ordered that pin, just for that reason.:D Another interesting thing is the FW Logo...Looks new.

And blue at night!

And yeah, I saw the two logos on the pin. The FW and Innoventions ones are both interesting. Personally, they should've used the one on the pin for the new signs. Those would have looked great!

Anyway, it matches the fiberoptics.


And agreed on the pin.
