It sure seems to me like they did something with the beamway there...

It looks fantastic. Can they do that to the rest of them to?

I'm sorry, but blue paint can't excite me when SSE is complete and utter crap, Imagination is still a disaster, and Wonders still sits empty. Nothing has changed in the past two years- in fact things have actually gotten worse since the park lost its soul.

Disney is selling retro Epcot Center stuff because buffoons like us will buy it, but it doesn't mean that they are bringing anything back. They're basically exploiting the past and profiting off of it.

And what's the difference if Universe of Energy is repainted when the show is still stuck in the 90s? This belief that a renaissance is upon us is complete and utter nonsense. If we let Disney think that painting a building is good enough for us, then we've lost the fight for good. Finish/revise SSE and redo Imagination and maybe I'll change my mind.

If I was down there, I'd totally do it.

If it hasn't been done by the summer I'll do it.

And about the tarps, I really wouldn't expect them to go anywhere.

I do...Or at least, I hope so. :lol:
SirGoofy said:
The tarps really don't affect the view of SSE any where close to the level of the wand. The tarps are honestly barely noticeable compared to the wand.

Compared the the OLD view from Communicore Court, they do entirely. SSE is blocked until you get to Mouse Gear. Something that's wrong, and something that distances the icon from you. I don't see the plus side to that.:shrug:

Yes the cool avatar of SSE covered with LED's. Of course someday they could cover it with seemless OLED's and turn it into a giant spherical video screen. Imagine that! :dazzle:

That was the plan for 2000....but it was scrapped. Too unrealistic.

Instead, jt, you got a smaller globe with LEDS. But surrounded by water. And some pyro. Set to music. ;)

No need to put anything on the outside if you want something like that avatar. Just put them on the inner shell.;)

YES.


Or at least some strobes to make SSE sparkle...

It won't be unrealistic in a few years. :D

Strobes are always good as long as they are well concealed so they are not visible in the daylight.

We should also remember that when Epcot opened' people were playing Atari 2600's.
