Oh I've been. Its wonderful! I love their Pirates, FL, and IASW. They do those things better over there. But Space mt. wasnt one of them.

That's the thing, they could have easily kept the classic feel and spirit of the attraction while freshening it up...Just like they did with The HM.
Yea, they could have done more I agree. Audio would have been a nice touch. But they didnt, and there's really nothing I can do about that. I'm sure I will love this new version just as much as the old one. Just a few more days till I get to go! Im so excited. :sohappy::sohappy:

First Time Today....
Wife and I finally had the opportunity to ride SM today for the first time since refurb. I'll be positive and say that I like the new queue...I like the new ceilings in load...and I like the ride.
I always get a little urpy on it but I did pretty good this time. And I don't remember that one groin-crunching drop being so strong - wow. And boy was it dark. Maybe I just don't remember it well, but it just seems so much darker. Covering load probably helped a lot.
Other than the few cosmetic changes, and more darkness, it was just good 'ol Space Mountain for me. Not bad, but not better, really.

Minus the crappy unthemed hallway in the back.
Seriously...what the hell were they thinking?:brick:
I`d like to think a short-term fix to an unforseen / forgotten problem.
Thinking and knowing are two different things though.

Do you believe in Pre-Furbs?
:wave:
A year ago yes. Now it`s a `second refurb to do the stuff we didn`t do last time.`Do you believe in Pre-Furbs?

I miss the old refurbs that did EVERYTHING in just one sitting. So efficient!

We've been to MK 3 or 4 times since the refurb and Sm has always been down.
Best was week or two before Christmas....think we'll finally get a chance to ride -- CLOSED....trek over to Thunder -- that's closed too and they are telling people, well you can always go ride SM! LOL - try once more on our way out....it was back running w/a 90 min standby.
Hopefully we'll get a chance to ride before our APs expire in November!!

Are you referring to the back wall of the actual load area queue? If so, I agree. All those black panels with....nothing.
I think he means routing Alpha through the old service corridor behind the switchback area. Why they didn`t use the backmost switchback line like Omega and then the corral as now I don`t know.
No, you`re not. But it is what it is now.

I like the dark blue and silver parts. The green......eh....it's ok.
Anything to get rid or the old '70s light blue.
Still.....the whole thing needs a new exterior package. Paint, lights....the works.
Hmmm...I wonder....if I volunteer to spend a day cleaning the Mountain....will that get me a free ticket?

OH geez. That sounds...nice. We only saw Omega since we were using Fastpasses.
