Guardians of the Galaxy coming to Energy Pavilion at Epcot

Not mentioned as the post is from 2009, but also the plot between Mexico and Norway has been used with the additions from the Frozen project.

Hence the Before note.

Agreed, it's sad we've gotten to this point but I'd take GOTG in energy over it in TOT anyday if those are the options.

Disney be like,

And sadly only a cropping of the actual available space was used, which is not how the expansion pads were originally intended.

To be fair to our favourite punching bag JT - I can think of at least one on these forums who is convinced the park will indeed be soon closed and sold for parts... Around the time China steals all of Disney's assets.

I do weirdly get endless satisfaction from watching Marni... "put up" with him though.

I think his message was taken too literal... "has a future" meaning "things are actually going to happen and it's not going to continue to rot" I can't speak for any other possible crystal ball predictions

So is this the current timeline?

And soon Muppets in DHS and MK.

so.. muppets going to MK is confirmed?
I was still kinda numb from that thread claiming muppets would replace the hall of presidents.

There are, but it's a street show outside in Liberty Square. Hall of Presidents is fine.

Yes DPB posted something like last week, it's a show type thing. Not replacing the Hall of Presidents.

Currently yes.

well that would make it worth while returning in 2019. May have even more grandkids by then.

That makes sense if they are planning on releasing Guardians Vol 3 in 2020 or thereabouts.

 

[Thanks phoenicians]

Is former WOL building still being considered for a GOTG part II? I really want that area of the park to get some love even if they must demo the building, however I still don't see it necessary for GOTG to get two attractions.

I wish I could read this entire thread. Anyone care to summarize?

There is a plan to replace Universe of Energy with a Guardians of the Galaxy ride.

 

[TalkingHead]

Currently yes.

Wait, so they're planning to open 3 E-tickets in one park in 2019?

I find that incredibly hard to believe. Even if SW is a huge draw, it will already have been open in DL, and many fans will have gone there to see it first.

So, really, is the plan for 3 new E-tickets in one park in one year?

At the outset, it would appear so. Budget cuts haven't taken hold yet, so whether they go through with it as though they're working up E's is anyone's guess.

As crazy as it may seem, it's actually pretty believable. They'll likely want to spread demand across the park. SWL opening is going to be a huge, huge draw. A lot of people, I think, underestimate how big it's going to be.

 

[Cesar R M]

Currently yes.

til they try to extend the building in more quarters.. right?

and it joins the supposed plans for adding GOTG to TOT too.

I believe those plans are a separate. Sorta like if UOE gets GOTG, ToT is safe. If ToT gets GOTG, UOE is safe.
