Is there any update on SSE ending rumors?

[Lee]

And not to call anyone out, but there has been a notable poster who has been silent on this issue here (and at his home forum)

More than one poster has been strangely silent on this topic. :lookaroun

So what are you hearing Lee? That maybe there's nothing going on afterall? Did the project start and then get funding pulled? I just want to know what's going on.

No, nothing like that.
I honestly haven't heard anything in a while, like maybe a couple months. At that time I was told that work was ongoing, and could be ready as soon as for the Easter crowds.
That didn't happen, of course.
My sources on SSE are second hand, and not directly involved. They are not as good as Martin's in this case, but I have no reason to doubt what I have been being told for months now.

I am, naturally, always looking for better information. Thus far, nobody with any status has told me a different story.

Heh, thats the other problem Disney's created: now that this new descent has taken forever, just about evryone is expecting this mind-blowing, amazing descent. Can it possibly live up to some very high expectations? I'm trying to keep my expectations down a bit as to what will be there; don't want to reject the great because it isn't the amazing.

I have no expectations.

The descent is done. Yep. There it is. I said it again.

I'm beginning to doubt that. The triangle things everyone is talking about weren't there the last time I went on it. More than likely they are working on something, the question is what and when will it be done?

Just curious why your adament that its 100% done, when two others in the know are saying otherwise?

I went on it today and it seems like there are definitely more triangles, fiber optic stars, and blue led lights in the descent. Also I think there are more blacklights for the triangles.

No those have all been there and on for quite some time now. Its nothing new. Sorry :shrug:
The black lights are basically just a couple of canister lights along the right side of the track

Right side...From the standpoint of sitting in a moving omni, right?


Interestng.

 

[aladdin2007]

Yes as riding in the omni on right side, they are against the black curtains at the bottom, only a couple or so. But this is what makes me think those black curtains arent going anywhere with those canister lights pushed up against them, not to mention a couple of triangles are kinda against them too. :shrug:

I noticed the lights when I was there in December... but they're do not appear to be permanently installed. As in, the way they were setting there, my stagecraft degree says it wouldn't pass fire inspection. It is all done very, very temporarily.

ah ok thats good to know, thanks!!

There is one black light right at the start of the curtains on the right hand side that is pointing at nothing. All it seems to do is illuminate the curtain. That's one of the few things that give me hope that there is still more to come.

It was doing that as long ago as last July.

True, and now that I think about it it does point at nothing. Theres another one just like it a little bit further down that does the same thing.

It could be that those were set up for the previous version and were never removed...

Right, but wouldn't those be BEHIND the curtains?
