I miss the original with the cannon boom from the launch you could hear all over the park.... the blast of steam and smoke as it launched...it was true Disney magic....Now it's Hyperspace Mountain... meh... Not sure how long it has been that, but I know at least the last 11 years....
Yeah a bus bar dark ride for Wall-E or Stitch would slap.
They were going to do something similar with Tomorrowland at DLR (inspired by the future that never was) but cheaped out majorly and ended up making it worse.
I do agree! I keep hoping one day it will revert back
I know trackless rides are overdone now, but I think a trackless WALL-E ride could be incredible. Creeping up on things only to zip away, startled. Spinning through space with a fire extinguisher. Maybe even elevators to blast off and crash back down to earth.
The style is nearly a century old. It could experience resurgent popularity at some point, but it can’t really become outdated all over again. It now references a specific bygone future ideal rather than being the future du jour.
We're aiming for 1/4 folks! And that single one is an IP more fit for DHS!
Yes, the Axiom uses the colorful retro future aesthetics of Tomorrowland to essentially condemn everything Tomorrowland stood for in its "The future will be built by everybody's favorite American corporate behemoths" origins.
Sad ain't it? Don't the Star Wars and Jules Verne elements just compliment each other perfectly?
They might be waiting until they get to Alien vs. Predator. The setup for it just in the trailers for Badlands is obvious.
Romulus or F4? I imagine the latter (and please be an SGE replacement?).
I do really hope we are able to get an Alien attraction at some point in the future.
I think Fantastic Four is represented at Islands of Adventure, so the Marvel contract is what's standing in the way.
The Universal contract is really the gift that keeps on giving for at least mildly maintaining the thematic integrity of the WDW parks. Too bad it doesn't work for DCA.
