News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

After seeing the photos, I knew I would immediately see complaints about "The Box". You all didn't disappoint. I'll just withhold comment until the whole thing is complete.

Today.

Thanks for posting, but imagine how much more picture data you'd get if you turned your phone sideways and shot in landscape...

Going to the original post that created the thread, "in time for the 50th anniversary" in 2021. So next year on or before October 1, 2021.

I've always wanted to visit in October. The weather is nice, I get to wear a "its my birthday!" button around, check out HHN across the street...

But something tells me Oct 2021 might be a little busy...

You think? Yeah. I'd agree with that.

Hmmm...

It might actually be worth it to meet Martin on my birthday.

On the fly mid monorail ride, not really thinking aspect ratio.

Apparently Disney could care less anymore about hiding MASSIVE show buildings - this along with Rattitioue and Guardians dominate and ruin sight lines.

I saw this structure when we were there a few weeks ago and hoped it was only temporary construction rigging. This is disappointing it’s a permanent feature. This is the only thing they can do with it IMOView attachment 444559

Still think they can make that work but only if they incorporate a Low level C or B ticket Wall-E attraction in the foreground. An elaborate Meet and Greet? kiddie flat ride? The question then becomes how does one incorporate WALL·E into Tomorrowland yet still have it seamlessly transition into Fantasyland? The idea of slapping a BnL logo up there is not a bad idea honestly given the visibility of the building. Might as well put it to use...

I don't suppose Speedway could be IP'd to WALL·E, could it?

The general idea is wonderful, but if you'll permit me to take this idea and run with it a bit, I may have an alternative idea... Since Disney did purchase Fox and Fox produced the 2006 film "Idiocracy", I think I have the perfect IP tie in to appropriately cement the Tomorrowland vision of the future while making the big grey box "theme" look 100% appropriate...

Spoiler

Complete with appropriate ride op apparel!

As in the other thread, I forgot the Rat, since we've known about it for so long thanks to our insiders.

MUCH bigger. So much bigger that it makes it look like Paris doesn't even have a TRON ride.
