Trust me when I say I'm on your side here, but doesn't the sign literally say "Character Greeting" on it?

It does, but the full sign reads Stitch's Alien Encounter Character Greeting, and the "Stitch's" part is much bigger, flashier, and easier to read than the rest of the sign. It'd be easy to see it from a distance and assume it was an actual attraction.
Plus, like I said above, it's just really ugly. I also don't think any of the other meet and greets have such giant prominent signs, but I could be wrong -- it could be that the Stitch one just stands out more because of the location.

I believe they have changed it. Maybe I’m just ready for something new in here. LOL

Wrong thread, I know. Nevertheless, I think it was such a missed opportunity not to put Tron in Epcot. Computers run everything now. If handled delicately, they could have not only kept the Energy focus, but tied together that whole side of the park, and even SSE, with a unifying theme.
(I realize they would not have handled it delicately.)

GOTG in MK and Tron in Epcot would have saved Tomorrowland 94 and Future World at the same time...
And if that part of the park became the Digital Frontier, they could have made an amazing flynn's arcade instead of the bland Play pavilion.

Who is Tomorrowland Terrance? Did they cut the budget for Sonny Eclipse? #ThanksCorona

Looking forward to any photos/updates anyone can give is on the most recent construction. Color scheme changes, retro people mover columns, etc. Thanks!

There is an album posted by wdwmagic (Linked here) of general pictures from through out the MK. pictures 70 - 75 show parts of TL.
I thought it was understood that the update was "finished" pre-Covid? Obviously Tron still needs to happen but I think we're done. Shame too because if there's any one mountain actually in NEED of an update it's the one in TL.
Post-Covid? We'll be lucky if they even paint anything now.

I don't think it is done. I saw a picture from @AliciaStella a couple of days ago that had the roof supports by Stitch still under wraps.

Can anyone speak on why PM is still down? Is is a sanitation issue because it is consistently moving?

There are at least half a dozen other attractions around WDW that are constantly moving and have reopened.

5th gate? Just build a new resort Bob.
CONJECTURE: Disney got sued in April over a collision on the PeopleMover from 2018. In addition, there was a pretty significant crash at the end of February. The thing is, the peoplemover crashes all the time. I’m guessing they’re trying to make a permanent fix, and until they are satisfied with its safety, it won’t reopen.

IIRC, that "pretty significant crash" back in February was nothing more than two trains lightly bumping into each other.

Are you referring to the rug burn that happened?
