News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

“”It’s very easy to think “Oh people aren’t going to get that.” This sentiment is often used in business to excuse substandard work. I happen to think it’s the height of arrogance to assert that other theoretical “people” aren’t going to understand something that you yourself understand. Like you are better or something. That means your theoretical world of people is full of dumb people. Mine is full of smart, curious people” - Joe Rohde

I didn't say they were dumb. I said people don't care.

The construction has been completed for over three years now.

In a completely different park in a completely different country.

Completely irrelevant. It is the same box.

YOU don’t care (although you care enough to pretend it might not be as bad as the structure of which it’s an exact clone). Other “people” will have to speak for themselves.

Yes absolutely. In 2021, everyone in the Magic Kingdom will abhor at a box that may be slightly visible from Casey Jr Circus and from the monorail.

And the Seven Seas Lagoon, the Polynesian Village, Fantasyland, Tomorrowland and even the ride itself.

....and Seven Seas lagoon, and the monorail resorts, and the bus drop-off, and from tall rides across the park.

There's no debate that this is a cheaper, lazier, less creative way then they have done it in the past. Disney set their own bar, not us.

Oh so is there a problem you can see all of Adventureland's show buildings from Splash Mountain too? Or the show buildings from Swiss Family Robinson's Tree House? You can also see show buildings from Tower of Terror. And Expedition Everest. And Test Track. Please tell me about how you all these attractions are of poor quality because they expose show buildings.

Do you seriously not understand the difference in the 2 scenarios you're talking about?

I can't wait to ride on Tron lightcycle run at the Magic Kingdom it will be awesome!

 

[MrHappy]

And the Seven Seas Lagoon, the Polynesian Village, Fantasyland, Tomorrowland and even the ride itself.

If anyone is at the parks and reading this, can you send over some pics of the (construction) building from these various POVs? I'll be there in a few days, but I can't wait to vomit in my mouth at the site of these viewing angles.
Side story, my last stay at the Poly (3rd floor, Tuvalu) I saw Splash mountain. So, there's that.

No I don't. If you look hard enough, you can see the show building of almost any ride. When construction is done, did you ever consider they may plant trees to help conceal the building from angles?

Do you not understand how tall such trees would have to be? How they would impose upon other structures like Space Mountain?

All one needs to do is stand at the Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain or DINOSAUR and revel at the amazing ways in which Imagineers hid the massive warehouse show buildings. Then, after doing that, head over to Tomorrowland and look at this hideous, unthemed blue box with only a canopy obstructing its view.

When I used to take guests backstage, they'd truly MARVEL at the fact Splash Mountain wasn't actually in a mountain, but rather a big warehouse. Here people will just say "what's in big box?" unless they're directly in front of the ride, then they'll know.

Okay I'll do that next week. Wait a second, there is no blue box. It's not even half done. Maybe I'll try in 2021 like any sensible person would.

No you can't.

The only other ones that have apparent and unthemed show buildings like Tron is probably GotG and Soarin.
(the old "soundstage theming" of DHS buildings is a whole other discussion)

Great, in the meantime, you can look at the eyesore behind Future World for a little appetizer.

A sensible person understands the basics of how a wall is built. It won’t get smaller.

Was this not the same discussion that we had about Pandora. Came out pretty good. Also about the new Ratatouille ride and that is looking great so far and it is not even done.
