SPACE MOUNTAIN- I assure you, we are SOFT re-OPEN!!!

[Mr.EPCOT]

Ready and waiting to load your brains out...

Same here. I really can't wait to compare and contrast DL's and WDW's.

Disneyland will win easily.

Disneyland will win easily.

Edited my post, I meant from my opinion. I've always liked both pre-refurb. I love Matterhorn from Disneyland and SM at WDW reminds me so much of Matterhorn just with a space theme, guess thats why I still like WDW's. Is it okay to really like both of them because they're so unique? :lol::lookaroun

Okay, just to elaborate on the revised queue arrangement as I observed it, each side continues past the former merge point. Stand-by, still on the left, goes almost all the way to the back wall, where you can choose to go left for the Alpha side, right for the Omega side, or take the chicken exit and deal with the crushing shame. FastPass continues just past the control tower, and just immediately turns right into the load area, making Omega the only choice for FastPass users.

Oooh, they actually refer to them now?

An image of a rotating space station above the queue/load area...

Is that Brava Centuri!?!?!?

No that's DVC Space...

Mr. EPCOT, the windows in the star tunnel.....we've talked before how they too, like the zig zag windows, had actual pepper ghost effects in them, but when missing in the late 80s early 90s....did any of those effects get restored or all the start tunnel windows just stars?

What are those big white box-like things hanging from the ceiling?

I'm pretty sure those are just support beams with a two tone paint job (white on top, dark blue on the bottom).

:hurl:


That sounds like something they actually might do.:lookaroun

As long as they still rotate...

 

[Expo_Seeker40]

the stars rotate because of the convex glass....I JUST WANT TO SEE THE MOONBUGGY IN THE WINDOW AGAIN

I will reserve judgment until next week.

What day are you planning to be in the MK?? We will be there on the 22nd.

Those big white things dont look like beams, you can see thru the far one under the white. ...so what are they?

So if I choose, as Standby, to wait in line for Omega, my wait time will probably be longer than if I went the Alpha way b/c Omega will have to merge FastPassers in.....correct in my thinking??

Support beams... Look closer and you will see light reflected on the dark blue on the farthest side.

 

[Main Street USA]

Any surprises or does Disneyland's still make ours look like a joke?

Nope, this is way better. Always has been. Always will be.

 

[EPCOT Explorer]

What was in the arcade, BTW?

 

[dotKirk]

+1 for curious about the arcade. Any pictures from inside? Details at all?

 

[kev24135]

Will it be open tommorrow????

It looks like you can see through it, but it's actually a blurry person standing in front of it illuminated from the red lights overhead.
