News Tomorrowland love

[rnese]

So now we know why it's going to take 2 years to rehab SSE... they're (a) moving it to Tomorrowland, and (b) putting the Astro Orbiter inside it.

Now THAT'S ridiculous!

The idea of a Tron attraction seems bizarre to me, but I've only seen the original movie, and when I last watched some of it it seemed virtually unwatchable to me.

It'll definitely look cool though.

Watch the most recent one, TRON:Legacy. The visuals and music are phenomenal.

You have to look at it from the perspective of a kid in 1982. Yes, the script isn't Shakespeare, but the ideas are fun and the aesthetics of it are still amazing.

Then again, I may be influenced by my choice of reading material this morning. (Yes, it's purely coincidental.)

Hey it's even Waaay earlier than that at one point during the early years of Epcot it would have been their first IP Driven based attraction that never happened...

Hmm.. I think Big Hero Six would fit nicely in Tomorrowland.. as it's future fantasy, and embraces the "not quite pure science, but speculative whimsy" of the land.

Yes Big Hero 6 to me feels more like EPCOT...like the old Wonders Of Life...the main attraction was more like this...speculative fiction....Robotics and health science...

Agreed.

A reinvented Future World with BH6 leading a new Innoventions, and Inside Out leading a new Wonders of Life would be perfect.

Fulfills the IP need and carries the original message of those 2 abandoned pavilions

It really is fitting, in an IP-mandated Epcot. And I wish they'd do something with it.

Ok, I do have a soft spot for Brian Daley, having sat by my stereo and listened to the Star Wars radio adaptation every week back in 1981. I loved that!

Disney now owns Robots.

wait.. Blue Sky is now part of Disney?

 

[MisterPenguin]

wait.. Blue Sky is now part of Disney?

Yes, since it is owned by Fox.

What I've been hoping they'd do. IP's not everyone's cup of tea but since we're "stuck" with it, I think they're both solid options (if executed correctly, of course, and their ability to do that with IP isn't stellar)

Inspiring.

Let's just hope for a great, big, beautiful tomorrow.

FTFY.

Oh whatever could that mean...


Wait a Martin hint that I was able to pick up on in 2 seconds?

I was hoping for this construction to be done in time for my trip down there. You'd think a demo and a new sign wouldn't take a month, but then you remember it's Disney.

This reminds me of another project that is so simple but is taking them so long...

Hey! They finally got Luxo. In a bag. Six months later.


Man, Pixar Pier sucks.
