Rumor Spaceship Earth Redo Shelved Indefinitely

[DCLcruiser]

Oh, I wholy agree with you about the original songs for all the Epcot OG rides! I just think I can take or leave Tomorrow's Child specifically. But my mother loves it so I want it back for her sake.

So, Horizons style...you get to select the song for the descent. Just select Tomorrow's Child for your speakers.

I just want new scenes in funny figment park gold ball descent. God the amount of holding back I need to do when someone calls SSE a golf ball

When I worked at EPCOT, nobody knew what I was talking about when I said “Spaceship Earth.” It hurt my soul every time I had to say “the ball.”

Someone in the replies saying this is from the Irons version?

Wake me when the ride stops sounding like someone falling down the stairs.

wake me when there is something to look at in the descent other than trash and dust.

wow looks like that area has been brought back to life from the iron's version, I think there use to be more than one bolt, several within layers of each other, but at least it looks like that area has returned in some form. Someone must care.

Always fun to see little stuff like this return! It is from the Irons version. (might be before, but I'm pretty sure it was added for that version.)

If the infinity mirror wall tiles could make a comeback also.

We don’t get a refurbishment, so instead they’re going to find every broken or abandoned effect and try to fix it

Hey, at this point.. I'll take it!

Why not both?

Who Should Narrate New Spaceship Earth?

Clearly it should be Idris Elba.

Chris Pratt.

I mean they did turn the domes back on in the Seas too. I'd rather get stuff like this then nothing at all. Of course I want a full refurb but it's obvious the parks don't care enough to fund one now.

A full SSE refurb is in development and will be the next thing EPCOT gets after Test Track. In the meantime it's getting love from the local maintenance team, like Seas and The Land have also been getting.

Any details … ?

Expect it to be similar in scope to the 2019 refurb in that the whole thing will be getting love (minus the Earth Station rebuild obviously, the lounge and new landscaping kind of preclude that). It won't be the cheap "new narrator and a proper descent" quick fix that many here have spent the last few years speculating about. Not really at liberty to say much more, only that work is being done.

Hopefully the reed-pounding AA gets some love. He's looked for years like he can barely move.

I also hope they can take credit for the improved brightness and crispness of the cavemen/woolly mammoth projection. In late February, it looked better than it has in years.

To collaborate, it's more elaborate than what people have been expecting for a SSE re-do. I am curious on the timeline of this project though, especially with the lounge being done. The lounge likely won't effect it, but it does get my brain going.

 

[WorldExplorer]

See, for a Spaceship Earth redo, I don't WANT elaborate, I want them to barely touch it and then leave.

If more elaborate means just making the animatronics work better, that's great and the only thing I want them to do other than removing the "Your Future" thing and adding something on the descent. They're not going to make anything else better.

Edit: Exception made for track fixes.
