Space Mountain refurbishment photo update (Thur 5 Nov)

[CaptainMichael]

True. The Arcade does fowl some sight-lines up, but at least they fixed the coloration.

However, seeing that the area has been opened up already is a plus.

I just want lighting. And trees trimmed. :lol::lookaroun

They may have opened it up a bit at least on the right side, but the rest of the entrance area is one large jumbled up mess and should have feeling of grandeur.

Honestly, I think that removing the arcade won't happen. They need the post show, and now the spot for our on ride photos.:lol:


At least the color scheme it head and shoulders above the old one.

It wouldn't be so bad if it was shorter and covered in space rocks.:xmas:

What do you want them to do? Lop the top half off? :lol:


Rocks are good.

 

[Innoventions]

Now if they took off the words "Arcade", and created a back story for the building, I might be accepting of it

But they do need that area for the amount of guests that get off the ride
(crosses fingers for SM gift shop)

Yes, blend it in with the rest of Tomorrowland's streamlined architecture...the barn design sticks out like a sore thumb full of Hannah Montana and High School Musical crap....

I wonder if it's possible...:shrug:

 

[WDITrent]

There are already plenty of trees in that area. Here is an example of an attrction icon done right....

This is the icon for WoC they just installed. At it's base is an incredibly detailed water feature. Orlando's Space Mountain got a scraggly "tree" :zipit:

:brick:

Unless the detailed water feature you speak of is World of Color, this is a planter too. :shrug:

 

[CaptainMichael]

I wonder if it's possible...:shrug:

Didn't they just do this to bathrooms below the skyway?

 

[Innoventions]

Its near World of Color, The pillar is not even close to a planter, at least IMO:shrug:

 

[EPCOT Explorer]

Ahhhhhhh.... True.


However...There is no 180 Foot Structure attached to it.:lookaroun

 

[WDITrent]

Its World of Color, not even close to a planter, at least IMO:shrug:

The Pillar of Mystery (as it is called) does not have a fountain at its base, rather it has a planter. If a water feature was mentioned, it could only be World of Color. :animwink:

Haha i get it now

But where exactly is this, its a lighthouse with shrubs around it?

 

[marni1971]

and created a back story for the building,

It has one. It`s the Light and Power Company for Tomorrowland. Hence the far-too-tall roof line.

I know that, but what casual guest does? Just saying incorperate it a little more?
For the regular guest. Either that or a Space Mountain gift shop, or both.

What would the backstory have to do with the height of the structure?

 

[Innoventions]

What would the backstory have to do with the height of the structure?

Nothing. I was just saying how they could fit it in more to Space Mountain without doing a huge overhaul.

 

[marni1971]

What would the backstory have to do with the height of the structure?

The building design and shape harks back to an old power hall.

I know that, but what casual guest does?

WHat casual guest knows anything about any of the (now sadly fragmented) backstory of Tomorrowland?
