Yeah. Why can't they bring back the spires?
They did. But they're black, and they're in another park... Bright Suns!

Speaking of 1960s retro, I think that is the $64,000 question.
White kitchen appliances are back in vogue as well.

So does this mean the fashion trends are starting over from the early 20th century?
Could be... maybe that's why they aren't refurbing the Carousel of Progress just yet...So does this mean the fashion trends are starting over from the early 20th century?

I would like to see them go too but they were just painted white a couple months ago so I feel they're sticking around.

I understand Bob Iger announced to shareholders that Stitch’s Great Escape will be replaced with an IKEA. Imagine all the free wooden dowels they’ll get to reinforce Space Mountain for the next 44 years.
Disney's Assembly Not Included Experience, only $129.99 per person (theme park admission required).

Making the ring an ellipse is the same thinking that would have given us THIS space mountain:
Think honest architecture, not theme park signage.

Here's a site that reminds you of the old sign and shows you the new:

Even that is not the whole original story. Parts of the original entrance were removed either because they looked bad with age, or hurricane damage...the original sign had a dome on top...
The new entrance just looks unfinished... I get the white minimalism, but even understanding that concept this looks like a miss.

The old entrance looks too cluttered to me. I like the new clean look. I know. We all have our preferences.

The more I look the less I like it. The visible seams make it look so chapek--I mean cheap. That the professionals running the place failed to notice whatever the yellow thing is under the "M" speaks volumes. I wonder if it's still there. And no lights? Is that part of the new policy of unveiling half-finished things? Surely there are going to be lights, right?

They installed it in one night.
Can you wait half a second for them to turn the lights on? Sheesh

First thing my DH said when I showed him the picture of it was, "Is it finished?"
It's very plain, which could work if TL were made into the white, blue, purple sleek Tron theme. I just don't see how the bright paint fits the minimalist theme. And, I cannot imagine they would bother to paint those bright colors if they're just going to turn around and paint over it in white or silver, etc.

Maybe something in the center...tie it into the Astro Orbiter... Repeat the lines of this entry in other architecture...
The sphere could be clad in RGB digital screens to be constantly changing ...Evolving, clouds moving , color changes...It could be magnificent...

That's a great idea, I think the idea of moving beyond just Earth would be awesome too. That could happen with the digital screens projecting different planets, starts, etc.
