News Paradise Pier Becoming Pixar Pier

The statue is a memorial to honor our fallen hero.

"We pay tribute, not to a man who was imagined 10 years ago, but to an ideal, that lives in the heart of all cotton candy loving people."

Looks like the lamp is being installed now however, it won’t be unveiled today.

Glad they're making a ceremony out of unveiling the lamp.

They also replaced the neon sign with a regular sign, a major improvement in my eyes. The neon would have ruined the vibe that entrance area had.

How hard is it to install a neon sign?
I guess it was completely defective and the wooden sign is just a placeholder.

Hopefully with all the building problems they've had with Pixar Pier that this isn't the same construction company that build SWL. I don't need a cement spire crashing down on me in a five hour line.

Exactly. Now a two hour line I could probably deal with a spire crashing down on me.

Disney really needs to stop going with the lowest construction bidder.

This is as exciting as waiting for Bing Bong.

More wasted resources.

How do you guys not see the brilliance in adding a lamp to a sign? It's a pretty big deal.

And pixar balls on everything?
To chime in on another topic, I prefer the neon sign to the flat cutout that replaced it.

Same! The neon would have brought a huge pop of color than a boring piece of cardboard.

@Disneylover152 do you like the neon signs in Cars Land??

That has to be temporary right? Right?

Has anyone else noticed that this flurry of improvements and last pieces started occurring after October 1, allowing them to spread budget over multiple quarters?

Tragic

I deal with fiscal and quarterly budgets and the pain is real and all too familiar.

Yes. But putting neon lights on the Lamplight Lounge sign is going to ruin the entrance area. The entire entrance area has popcorn lighting. A giant neon sign plopped on a wall wouldn't look good with all the popcorn lighting around it. Even the Knick Knack's store across the way has popcorn lighting. The neon sign would stick out like a sore thumb. Not to mention the fact that neon signs look like crap from close up.
