I didn't circle Astro Orbiter since it's apparently staying how it is and I did miss the concrete work somehow. Good point though. So @disreport, just google "Tokyo Disneyland Tomorrowland" and look at that. See how white/blue, clean, and sleek everything is? Ours could look like that as long as plans stick. Except the spires at the entrance.
I meant that if they had wanted to use classic Tomorrowland and turn it into a retrofuturistic style they now have to do much more work to change it than they would've had to do back in the 90s. They bonked their opportunity for a different form of stylization with the mid-90s lasers, plasma, and stainless steelmWDW bonked the 90’s refurb? I thought it was perfect!!
Just getting rid of that laugh floor UFO thing would help a lot aesthetically and with traffic flow when it’s a bit crowded in that section.Basically all of the metal stuff. I think this amazingly well photoshopped picture sums it up. Someone please correct me if this isn't right.

It was a disaster in more ways than one.
Just color, or the entire theme contrast with Tomorrowland itself?
DL Space Mountain 98. The Tomorrowland makeover budget was savaged. The cars were given onboard audio with a track and support system that couldn’t take the additional weight.
Yikes.
And they lost their Peoplemover for a half ... thrill ride. Has there been any talk about the Peoplemover returning? I've heard it needs major love (and OSHA compliance?) if it were to ever open again. It just seems insane to lose a ride like that...
I expect the track remains to be removed sooner rather than later.
It was for Laugh Floor.I am curious to know.......What was this line for? And I'm sure it wasn't for Laugh Floor.....
Let's see -- a "half ... thrill" would either be a "thr" or an "ill." I'm guessing you were going for "ill."
Didn’t the onboard audio happen a few years prior, in 1995? Was it still considered part of the TL98 budget?
Wow...that's just depressing. It seems like something so simple (in the sense of hyping up a returning attraction, not repairs) to add back into the land. It would be a nice people eater for when SWGE opens over there. I know I'd go to max salt if we lost our Peoplemover in WDW.I expect the track remains to be removed sooner rather than later.
I suppose the execs that okayed turning a slow moving, people eating attraction into a terrible, low capacity, unreliable pile were very ill in the head.
