News Spaceship Earth Refurb - 2 Year Closure

[FigmentFan82]

Even though I'll be in WDW in early December, I hope they start this refurb ASAP. I've rode it plenty of times, so I don't feel like I need that "one last ride." I just want SE to be given a good and thorough update and refresh to keep it going as long as possible. Take your time TDO! Give SE the care it needs. And it will be all the more wonderful to ride it again once it re-opens.

New voices?

Tom Hiddleston
Michael Fassbender
Sean Bean
Idris Elba
Helen Miren

Sir, you seem to have mis-labeled your list of people to take over as Bond after Daniel Craig.

Also, I'd like to throw in Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan. For Spaceship Earth, not Bond.

Although...

And don't forget Benedict Cummerbund.

I second Idris Elba. Patrick Stewart would be a good choice, too.

 

[LittleBuford]

As a complete contrast to the largely male and exclusively British names offered so far, I suggest Dolly Parton.

Made me think of this lol.

Seems to me the OBVIOUS choice for a Disney ride about history would be an actor who was grown up acting for Disney. I say Kurt Russell should be the new voice of Space Ship earth. Either him or Cee Lo Green.

 

[ChewbaccaYourMum]

Morgan Freeman. He's already done Hall of Presidents, he has to have some connection with WDW still! please...

 

[T.Will]

My choice would be Neil deGrasse Tyson.

Kurt Russell using his Snake Plissken voice.

 

[MisterPenguin]

Time to name every actor who can speak again...

 

[NateD1226]

Bob Chapek is perfect for the job

 

[Goofyernmost]

Alright, lets just end this discussion right here. I will do it and I will do it free. That last suggestion almost guarantee's my voice. So there you have it... It will be me.

As long as there are countries to suggest to WS, ways to shuffle the decades in CoP, shows to update at DHS and attractions to move to a different park, there will be narrator suggestions for SSE

 

[SoupBone]

End of this year. Though a betting man would think early January.

So this is really happening? Is it really a massive refurb with new scenes? Any narrator leaks? I love Dame Judy, but bring back Jeremy Irons!

 

[SoupBone]

Is there a summary of this so I don't have to read through 60 pages for all the notes? I don't want to ask or re-ask a million questions. Like, is Rome burning gonna remain? Are they keeping most old scenes and adding newer ones?

 

[Mike S]

I nominate Benedict Cumberbatch on the condition that a scene with Penguins is added
