Agreed, it's certainly not a waste of space when it'll be the best ride (for those who tolerate coasters) on that side of the park!It’s great. Nothing they add is apparently a waste of space or an eyesore, so this should help with crowd control
That’s it. Do I think its a little bit an odd location? Sure… but who knows maybe 80% of tomorrowland is about to get demolished in the future and its just the start of solething far bigger. I always tought space mountain was placed to far back from the rest so…Agreed, it's certainly not a waste of space when it'll be the best ride (for those who tolerate coasters) on that side of the park!
I'm detecting sarcasm haha, but Tron absolutely isn't a waste of space. It'll be a very solid addition, even if they could have integrated it better.
If its opening leads to a Space Mountain rebuild à la DL or Tokyo, even better.

Like when Everest closed for its big refurb after Pandora opened?If its opening leads to a Space Mountain rebuild à la DL or Tokyo, even better.
It is not part of something bigger. It was dropped down. That’s it. There aren’t these long range plans being followed.That’s it. Do I think its a little bit an odd location?

The Tokyo announcement out of nowhere gives me hope someone will eventually see the light.Like when Everest closed for its big refurb after Pandora opened?
They still ride pan and small world. They will ride SM until it isn't any more.The Tokyo announcement out of nowhere gives me hope someone will eventually see the light.
I'm thinking that might happen once Space Mountain's demand completely drops off. In its current state, it's literal trash compared to both Guardians and Tron. Very easy comparisons to make, and it won't take long for most WDW coaster fans to figure it out.
I say this as someone who loves the standard versions (not Hyperspace) in DL/HKDL and Paris. Tron too, even if it's not Cosmic Rewind.
You're probably right, but these days I'm aiming to be an optimist with a long-term mindset.They still ride pan and small world. They will ride SM until it isn't any more.
See the light through the current economic fog? Maybe if Bob hits the lotto but this wouldn't make him any money so why? GS? Ha Ha Ha you are living in the past.
I thought Tron was the 10 year plan, or is it only 5You'd think they would have a 10 year plan (lol) but the fact that they produced three Star Wars movies without a coherent story/plot goes to show you Disney doesn't really plan anything.
Here is the light ‘show’ testing from a different angle giving a better view inside the canopy.
Highly disagree, I love Tomorrowland especially at night. Peoplemover, COP, and Astro Orbitor high above TL make it better than the rest. Laugh floor is cute despite not being the best fit. Buzz can definitely use a refurb as could Space mt but their still fun.I think it looks great. Don't really care about the show building.
But with Tomorrowland being the worse land in the park, I think the placement of everything is terrible.

- People mover is terribly placed and interferes with site lines.
- MILF/Buzz/Stitch are all old/closed rides that should be replaced.
- No good food options.
- Speedway is ancient and a waste of space. You can't even really retheme it because it's sitting in front of a good looking ride in Tron.
- I don't see how the flow of people in and out of Tron is really going to work. Shoved between the racetrack and a gift shop.
Pretty much like DLs MatterhornThe Tokyo announcement out of nowhere gives me hope someone will eventually see the light.

Could you imagine the insane jealousy Disneylanders would feel if The Magic Kingdom had a full-on TRON ride with the Peoplemover running through it??Wonder what it would have cost them to remove or revamp the speedway, place Tron better (if possible), and extend the Peoplemover to run through it? These days, probably another 200 mil.

I highly disagree with 1-3 especially 2 and 3. Why would you move Astro orbiter? Might not be my favorite ride but it belongs in the middle of the land and on top of the peoplemover. Don’t want to make Disneylands mistake again.If I were to play armchair-imagineer in redesigning Tomorrowland - any of this would never happen of course.
If Tron wasn't opening, the only reason to do Tomorrowland would be either Space Mountain or nostalgia classics like CoP or Peoplemover.
- Remove COP and bring it to Epcot. It's essentially a mid-20th century nostalgia hit. I love this attraction but doesn't belong any more.
- Reroute the Peoplemover to go around the perimeter of the land instead - going through SM and Tron. It blocks too many sitelines now. Coming in to the land from the Hub there are basically 3 tracks of the ride blocking your view of Tron which will probably be the central piece to the land visually.
- Astro Orbitor is fine, but I'd probably move it to where CoP is now.
- Buzz/MILF/Stitch changed to something else.
- Nothing can be done with the speedway now with the Tron placement. I wouldn't remove it because it has capacity, but we're stuck with it now because anything else put here blocks Tron unless something can be set into the ground a bit with some kind of outdoor ride like Barnstormer or Mine Train.
- Move the Space Mountain gift shop to the other side of the attraction.

Coming in to the land from the Hub there are basically 3 tracks of the ride blocking your view of Tron which will probably be the central piece to the land visually.
The parks need kinetics and having the PM go around the perimeter of TL would lose that. Tron was a copy-paste when it should've been designed for the land instead of being plopped down in a bad spot. Don't blame the PM for blocking Tron, blame WDI for sticking it where it's going.If I were to play armchair-imagineer in redesigning Tomorrowland - any of this would never happen of course.
