Tomorrowland Murals painted black?

[Pi on my Cake]

Someone posted this to Reddit recently. No one there seemed to know why this was done. Thought I'd post it here to see if anyone knew what they were doing?

Maybe they are refreshing the murals? Maybe not a new design.
Or Darth Vader has taken over Tomorrowland.

Word on the street is that a gang of 7 men of below average height (dopey/grumpy looking dudes) snuck in after dark and spray painted obscenities all over it.

Expecting giant billboards for "Mary Poppins Returns" and "Wreck-It-Ralph 2."

I think I like it better that way.

♪ I see some murals and I want them painted black
♪ No Star Tours anymore I want it to turn black

I’m okay with this! I look forward to seeing what Non-Star Wars or Pixar related thing they come up with to replace the 2005 murals. You got that, Disney?

They got it.

So long as it's not "new Mickey," Disney emojis, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar (other than Buzz Lightyear), or ads for new movies, I'm sure the new mural will be a nice change.

They'd have to take out "Marvel", but yeah.

I hate to say it, but Wreck it Ralph 2:with its vaguely sci-fi/technology focus might be seen by Disney as easy to tie into a temporary Tomorrowland promotion. You might be on to something

The old one was a bunch of flying Space Mountains. So does that mean Space Mountain is a big spaceship?

I'm actually kind of sad to see these go, since I grew up with these murals, but I'm hoping the replacements will be really good, maybe even better. Here's what I'm imagining

I always thought that was weird since the space mountain story at the time was that it was space UPS. The mural should have had some sort of flying package or something lol.

Reminds me of the Alien Encounter concept art

I forgot that concept art, but yeah, the concept art proves that art style could really work for tomorrowland.

Any indication that they're making a move to improve Tomorrowland is a good thing.

Unless of course...they've found a way to make it even worse...

 

[George Lucas on a Bench]

Everything they've done to Tomorrowland for decades has made it worse.
