have to say I was so depressed the other day after getting off the ride, okay maybe depressed isn't the word, but disheartened at the condition and state they have let the descent become recently, worse and worse. Not just the fact that its deplorable to begin with, but its literally falling apart and filthy. And it just bothered me that this is the Disney company of today, show quality means nothing anymore. So don't know if what is if anything is planned is better or worse, but someone or something with a vision I hope does something positive and soon.

SSE 94 was my Horizons

Me too, I sadly never experienced Horizons in person considering my first visit was November of 1999.

If you like dark rides you would like Horizons! If you like CoP, you would have loved Horizons. Horizons, IMHO was one of the best dark rides ever created!
I am sorry you didn't get to ride it.

I have seen videos, I regret being unable to see it, too. For some reason my parents didn't take me to WDW for the first time until I was 9.

 

[marni1971]

Dare I say I've a new Horizons edit coming too?

It's okay. At least you get to see the opening of all the new cool things coming to WDW!

Maybe you should bump up the release of that video... or if you need a test screener, I am happy to volunteer!

Is that sarcasm? Nothing Disney has done in recent years can compare to what they did in the 70s, 80s and 90s.

No sarcasm. Disney has done great things recently, like Mystic Manor, JttCotE, Shanghai Pirates, and RSR to name a few.
Pandora is going to be really cool and then 2 years later you have Star Wars land which has a Super E-ticket. I am hopeful for the future. Only time will tell for sure.

I don't know, As long as Iger remains CEO, I don't see a very bright future.

The plus side of never experiencing it is not having to mourn its loss.

I am no Iger fan, but they are actually building new rides now. I believe people will look back at the five-year period (2017-2021) as a great time for Disney attractions.
I just wish there were more "original, non-IP" attractions.

Well said!

I like to look at it from a philosophical point of view. If it was supposed to be a depiction of life in the 21st Century, It probably closed at the right time. I will even admit SSE 94 had to change too but not the way they did it.

We still have no undersea colonies, space colonies or cool spaceships tending to our orange crops. Anyway, the first half of the ride was the future as it was imagined in the past.

OK, but the premise should have been updated.

 

[PorterRedkey]

OK, but the premise should have been updated.

It did need updating (it was 16 years-old when it closed for good) but, the premise was fine. It was the combination of all of the Epcot pavilions - The Land, SSE (communication), The Living Seas and so on.
There was an update planned, but no sponsor to pay for it. HP wanted a new ride. Enter Mission Space.
