I'm comparing it directly to the concept art and the paint treatment looks almost identical. The 'cockpit' or center portion of the ship is mostly yellow which is what we are seeing in the concept. The fins are blue with yellow tips.
The concept art you are referring to does not match the Star Blasters we saw in Guardians 1 (I believe later concept art fixed this). What is on-site does match the movie. In short, they fixed a mistake.
Don’t they capitalize and amortize the construction costs like every other company? What’s it matter what fiscal year they finish in?
Since they are building using cash, it tends to look better on the books and the Wall St folks if they spread the construction costs out over as many quarters as possible.
Just incredible that the ugly grey support is placed in front of the lower fin. This unsightly feature will dominate the views from the front. Why didn't they design the support to be located behind the ship??
The fins will cover it and it will look like the concept art other than the color.
You’re talking about the impact to cash flows as opposed balance sheets?
There are several different versions of the concept art floating around. The color will match the one that also matches the ships in the movie. (see below)
Yes, yes it does!
Ohhhh THAT'S how it will relate to Moana Journey Of Water! Now it all makes sense.... lol
They should never have kept the original building. It’s a cheap play for nostalgia, a cynical attempt by the people who destroyed great old rides (note: UoE wasn’t great) to continue to profit off them - just like the constant exploitation of Figment. Seeing a mediocre ride stuffed into the corpse of WoM doesn’t make me feel warm and fuzzy, it reminds me of how unforgivably far EPCOT has fallen. Just have the guts to rip it all out.
That species of lion fish is rare because of all them that were destroyed. Therefore, this building is acting as a sanctuary for them. Good going, Disney!
That location is likely where most of the weight is centered.
