Well looking at August 17th Mission Space is unavailable for FP+, I guess I'll see what it says when I try to book my 60 day out FP+ tomorrow morning.

An indoor rollercoaster next to an indoor rollercoaster. This is a colossal expense that could have been better spent elsewhere.

In isolation it's a great plan. In the wider context? Not so clever. Imho.

I understand the argument, but there isn't really much wrong with this attraction going in. Then only real issue is that the other side of the park probably needs more love. Indoor coasters in Florida are a good option.

Could soft open or re-open without FastPass (at least that's what I'm hoping... I'm there July 29th through Aug 6th)

I don't see why an indoor coaster next to an indoor coaster is a bad idea but dark ride next to dark ride next to dark ride isn't a problem. A bike coaster is different enough from a sled coaster to combat that feeling of sameness.

i agree and look forward to see Tron contrast w SM as you ride the monorail in, and approach. I'm not terribly upset w this decision Im also glad the Autopsia is staying...

That would certainly put a new spin on Cranium Command and Body Wars.

Not really relevant to the discussion of Mission:Space but I need to vent a moment regarding Tomorrowland as your post brings up a point.

Contrast = failure. A land's theme shouldn't have contrast. It should be unified and complementary. SM:Tron will be a mishmash of concepts with only the colors white and blue unifying them. It's weak overlay and out of character. Tron = Tech Modern; the rest of the Tommorowland is Retro Futuristic! Those two themes don't mesh all that well. They can but it'll take effort. Effort that I'm not seeing in the concept art. I get the impression that Tommorowland is slowly suffering from an identity crisis. It doesn't know what it wants to be when it grows up.

The issue of there being a coaster within sneezing distance of another coaster is certainly a problem; foot-traffic and flow is unbalanced. But the mismatched themes of SM and Tron IMO are a more serious error; considering the "Disney Difference' is a pride in quality and attention to detail.

Tommorowland needs help. And while I think Tron is a good attraction it doesn't quite fit. It's a square peg in a round hole. Tommorowland was Space travel and Future. Tron is Tech World. This "Contrast" makes as much logical sense as Adventureland's Aladdin Spinner.

Disney needs to do more than just slap a clone of a ride down and call it day. It'll be nice to look at but I'm still hoping for a more cohesive aesthetic for Tomorrowland.
