Did they contract out the pedestal work to someone else? Why would they hang the ship so quickly and then the cladding be on an entirely different schedule?

That is a possibility. Depending on what they use the cladding could be something like a metal panel as seen on the facade and fall under that scope of work versus the ship itself being a show set prop.

DD13 didn't care for the remake, she loves the original. Though she is a fan of music heavy movies usually.

I didn't love the sequel either -- don't think it was anywhere near as good as the original -- but it was still a success for Disney in general terms, even if not what they were hoping for.

For $400 million of new ride funds?

I’m not the type to complain about Disney dropping a fortune in parks I visit. Would you rather be at DLP? We are lucky we have so much in development given what they’ve spent at WDW in recent years.

They can’t build much Marvel at WDW and yet we get the blockbuster Marvel e-ticket. They can build whatever they want in California and Paris and they get modest Spidey rides that have been criticized widely.

I’ll take WDW’s hand over what has been dealt to others.

Because you realize this ride has been mega hyped by the Diznoids, and it is likely going to be little more than Space Mountain 3.0?

And Flight of Passage was downplayed as "only" Soarin 2.0. It is indeed Soarin 2.0, but most would rate it a great success even 5 years later. (yes some will say it's terrible, some will also say oxygen is overrated).

Cosmic Rewind - label it how you want, it means nothing until we can experience it. Coaster? Screen Based? Not Enough AA? Too many screens? Space 3.0? Gringott's with different theme? All garbage summarized guesses.

Flight of Passage is most certainly Soarin’ 3.0. What that means depends on if you think Soarin is an amazing ride or not. In any other parks, Soarin would not be nearly as popular. Even in CA as opposed to FL it’s not nearly as popular. Both rides’ popularity are heavily dependent on the WDW crowd.

I have always argued that if Soarin was instead Soarin over Hogwarts, it would have a very short line, and be looked down upon as phoning it in like Kong. I’ll absolutely never understand the folks who wait an hour or two to experience Soarin or FoP for anything but the first time. Soarin’ isn’t worth a 15 minute wait with the mind numbering preshow.

Has anyone else heard they fixed the stand today?

We now have both a blue box and a blue stand (it's a joke). 😎

I'll see myself out for giving y'all heart attacks.
