Permit me this one moment - not to rub anything in anyone's face, but just to show off how close I was!:

That's always going to be an unforgiving angle. No question about it. That tree all the way to the right is about as much obfuscation as they can do in that space from ground-level. Barnstormer queue is quite a bit above that, though.

Maybe they are capturing the incredible beauty of an osprey building a nest? Seems to be what they are focused on. Maybe a zoom meeting with a cameraman to discuss options?

So Uni is restarting construction on a whole new park just 4 short years away and Disney is
Halting construction on this? The decision to pause construction grows dumber and dumber by the day. We will be done vaccinating enough people for herd immunity well before October and they halt it until 2022? Will it even be done in 2022? Good grief.

Just finish with what ever is being done to the MKRR and get it running properly again. Tron can come on line whenever.

Their focus is not on the parks but on their streaming service. Universal doesn't have as many branches in their company to worry about.

I don't think it will halt construction and resume by 2022. With the progress going on, it could open DURING the 50th anniversary which extends until 2022.

I don't mind them not opening Tron as I am much more interested in Cosmic Rewind BUT I do want them to expedite the construction outside Tron so they could open the WDW Railroad ASAP. That has been closed for way too long.

all the construction sucks but look at the bright side. they are adding/have added a lot of new stuff! Hopefully in a year or so things will be back to normal but right now we are living in a period (+/- 2 years) of massive spending in the parks

The 50th will last until April 2023

You're right, that tiny Comcast company has nothing else to worry about, so that's why they can build an entire theme park and Disney can't clone a ride in 5 years...

This is a new one...that Disney cannot walk and chew gum at the same time.

They can. They’re cheap, lazy, and over-confident.

Chapek again name dropped the galactic star cruiser, harmoniUS, guardians, and even gave an opening date for Rat. Didn’t even mention TRON.

Anytime I think of Tron I imagine the sheer amount of people bottlenecked in between the speedway and the Space Mountain gift shop every morning. Unless that path was/will be widened significantly?

I haven't followed this tread as closely as others so I'm sure this has been discussed before and I just missed it.

Others have said it. I think it's pretty undeniable. I wonder if that old arcade building will stay around.

Sorry if already mentioned, but will the WDRR open once the Tron exterior is complete?

Walt Disney World has a railroad?

Walt Disney World has a railroad?

It’s been open awhile now. Takes you to goats in a way only Disney can.

”It brushes the goats or it gets the hose again!”
