Rumor Spaceship Earth Redo Shelved Indefinitely

[CastAStone]

Hey does anyone else want to tag Martin?

If he had something to say he’d say it.

 

[James Alucobond]

Really? Where is the art?

It used to be on this person's portfolio, but it has since been removed. You can probably still find it if you search his LLC name + Moana in Google.

Thank you- it’s actually on the site we cannot name.

If they're still planning on changing the exit building they'd need to do it before too long

I have found his lack of stating things also states things. This could be one of those he can't share on?

It appears some thought there was a chance to keep the traditional Epcot instead of the neighborhood configuration. There must have been some pushback behind the scenes and it may have even had some real traction.

But then Journey of Water went vertical. And now SSE will get reimagined even in the face of the 40th anniversary.

Progress wins out. 'Cause it's Epcot.

Why can't they just wait until the entire attraction closes?

No one said anything about not moving forward with the “neighborhood” nonsense. No one except Clickbait has said recently that SSE is closing soon.

There was clear disappointment or frustration when Journey went vertical. And plenty of calls to reverse the removal on Innoventions west. There has been more than just a little bit of mocking at GotG, the proposed event center, and the neighborhood concept.

SSE rumors make sense in light of the more aggressive construction activity. This is the only area at WDW that can't be ready for the 50th but is still seeing such activity.

You are right to take this new rumor with a grain of salt. Personally I hope it is true as I really like the storytelling angle for SSE.

And I think JoW will be amazing also.

On 10/1 EPCOT will have Rat, Harm, the new SSE lighting, and a successful day's worth of operation for the 50th. CommuniCore should also be reopened by then. It wouldn't surprise me if they made that SSE's final date of operation, or sometime close to then.

They need all available capacity for that day.

If he has something to say or can say something, he will. Look at peoples "likes".

Take a look at the Nickelodeon Maya Resort. Reminds me of the Porte Cochère of the Star Wars Hotel. Interesting design!

Precisely why it would make sense to keep it open until then.

So amazing that you'd actually stop by for a visit???

Of course. Just waiting for AP sales.

We're all eager for that trip report!

I don't do trip reports. More of less random critiques. A lot to catch up on. I hear TSMM is new. Also Star Tours has random sequences. Very cool.

Yes, you should check out that new attraction, Toy Story Midway Mania. I've heard good things...

Great. I have it on my itinerary. Right after the back lot tour. Is LMA still running?

Probably not. Budget cuts and all...
