The Sorcerer's Apprentice Season 4: Homecoming Edition - Discussion Thread

So for me I think the one area that Test Track lacks is the aesthetics...World of Motion is a beautiful building.

I'm not sure why the tarp in front remains even with the second redo of Test Track, but it is what it is.

My main push for a World of Motion redo would be that they can get thrill rides from anywhere, preferably in World Showcase. I might have kept it until the early-mid 2000s when trackless technology came about, and World of Motion could have been an amazing trackless dark ride.

The overhang is tacky, wish they removed it.

Wasn't there also a delay in Test Track's opening. I might be remembering that wrong, but didn't it open months after it was supposed to?

Technical issues. It was a new ride tech. Also have I shown you the location on the map where they built the prototype!?

I guess we can title this segment 'Monday morning imagineering' - but here's another what if imagineering situation --

Would you have kept World of Motion and refurbed it or continued with history and redone it to Test Track?

If there were no sponsor issues then keeping World of Motion would make sense, but the reality was it needed a facelift for Test Track

It's really tacky...there's very little reason for it.

I don't know why it has to be so big and ugly, but don't they need something over the walkway since the ride track goes over head?

 

[Voxel]

Lol very true.

Don’t have to patch concrete or any of they super expensive stuff

Is that a thing? It stops before the track part so I don't know haha

That’d be rich coming from a billion dollar company.

Maybe there's buried treasure under it.

I don't think that matters, they probably don't see the need to remove it.

Just like the remains of River Country.
