News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

[lazyboy97o]

Fastpass disappearing altogether would be pretty shocking. I’ve been expecting them to start explicitly charging for it like every other amusement/theme park in the country. To go the opposite direction would be pretty bold for today’s Disney.

Eventually, it would also make the lack of capacity much more apparent.

Too bad they spent billions on trying to hide their lack of capacity instead of just adding capacity.

"We'll just start cramming more people in the same amount of space. It'll be fine." -- They said, last-wordsingly

Do we know what the launch speed will be for this?

I'm half excited, half scared of this attraction. Because I get motion sickness there is a slight chance I might barf during it.

Thankfully that backwards launch is there for you just incase you need to let it out.

Alright... Hopefully it will just go on the vehicles and not some random kid or granny.

Hopefully not. If so, the ride does involve time travel so I think the situation can still possibly be remedied.

Does anyone have a better idea on the story treatment for this attraction? There are countless ways this could go.

From the EPCOT Experience it seems like they’ll try to parody what Future World pavilions used to be about. Personally, that turned me off.

I wouldn't say parody. I'd say homage with a... detour.

That makes it sound like it's gonna be another Enchanted Tiki Room Under New Management.

Are you referring to strictly the Guardians pavilion and its story treatment or all the pavilions moving forward?

That could work really well or be terrible. I'm cautiously optimistic. Most recent Disney projects have been executed well even if the base concept was flawed or the budgets were slashed.

Can you elaborate? There's a ton of different options they could take including "love letter to classic Epcot", "pseudo science" and a number of other options.

No insider information just cobbling together different rumors and such. We're welcomed to the Xandarian outpost and they teach us about how their technology has allowed for a green/energy sustainable society. A field trip is arranged for us to visit Xandar and see their progress first hand. We board our vehicles to wormhole jump across the galaxy but something goes wrong and we end up launching backwards and jumping back in time. We see the origins of the xandar/the universe/big energy explosions while listening to 70's pop rock before somehow slingshotting ourselves back to the present day. Probably some conclusion scene where they say, whoops that got out of hand but hey you learned a few things about science/energy.

That very well may be acceptable.

I think you nailed it. Add some guardians but sounds about right. No insider info here but is definitely plausible.

Plausible and not horrible. Could be a lot worse than that.
