Rumor Spaceship Earth Redo Shelved Indefinitely

[techgeek]

Go on the ride after thesun has set, by then your eyes are adjusted to the darkness in the ride and can see more detail. {Or have you tried this already ?}

Except, your eyes are now blasted by the camera flash and the touchscreen language prompt in the ascent tunnel.

Not me, Because I wear my sunglasses at night! So I can, so I can...

Keeps track of the visions in my eyes.

Yep. Too true.

The projectors need replacing. Again. And WDI were so happy with the seamless projection effect in 2007 too.

Marni- wondering- is this a designing flaw or just a normal wear and tear issue with those projectors?

That I don’t know. It would depend on the equipment.

Yeah, I've tried it and it still looks awful.

Disney's good at projections now though, so I'm sure it can be easily fixed.

Oh it can be easily fixed.

Can you share more? I’m intrigued!

Any insiders willing to shed some light on the status of SSE 5.0?? It's been real quiet.

So I wasn’t imagining things last March, nor was one of my sons last August. Good to know I’m not losing my mind (or eyesight).

 

[IMDREW]

With the latest plans for the redo, was the queue still supposed to go in the Project tomorrow space with the entrance at Dreamer's point? Or was that just wishful thinking? It sounds pretty logical to me and I would hope that would still happen..

I bet you 2023 at the earliest to start this redo. Pop Century sat incomplete for what, 10 years after 9/11? This being much smaller, I would expect it to be 2 years minimum before they start reworking the redo.

It needs it before that, after riding today it sounded worse than ever and horribly bumpy. white flood lights glaring into your face after the lift in the caveman scenes exposing everything, no show quality in place at all till ancient Egypt....the load and unload has become so dingy...just seemed really sad.

But at least they’re putting oil rigs in the lagoon and demolishing what doesn’t need to be demolished.

Talk about getting priorities wrong.

Perhaps we're looking at this incorrectly. It's a tribute to Maelstrom.

And Chapek is the troll?

Can anyone confirm if a derailment happened?



This sounds like a different issue here:

I have a bad feeling the ride redo budget went to all the unnecessary glitzy lights for the outside,,,,, they just aren't taking care of what they should anymore, the inside needs a lot of help.

Repairing and renovating the ride system was a core part of the long refurb that was deferred by COVID>
