Yeah. I think basically every scene in the ride is too empty/lacking detailed theming, but that's definitely the most egregious section and the one I had in mind. Just a bunch of projections of snowflakes on the walls.

I wonder if they spent too much on the AAs (which are very good) and didn't have enough left over to actually flesh out the ride.

the worst part is that first scene after the lift,, empty, and too big of space for just a twirling pointless snowman and nothing else, it looks so fake, flat, its gray walls is all it is. When you compare that to what was there before with colorful black lit scenes that trasnsported you into another time and place that surrounded you, its just bad now. They put no effort up there at all, even in the next adjoining scene there is nothing, yes the animatronics are there but that's it, they don't even bother with atmosphere or props anymore. oh never mind this is the tron thread after all, I could just keep going on if I dont stop....sorry folks we return to the regularly scheduled topic....

I was on it recently. It's just too frigging dark. The ice palace is dark, the ice is dark, it just feels like they kept the lights low because they cheaped out on everything.

My understanding is that most of the cuts on FEA had very little to with budget and had a lot to do with the challenges of re-skinning an existing attraction. They were also (unsucessfully) trying to get it ready to open in a very short amount of time. The re-skin and the timeline resulted in cuts.

Do we know why Disney went with this lovely exterior design instead of the single-color light blue used in Shanghai? I’m assuming the exterior panels are otherwise the same.

I think there was probably a desire to make the building look a little bit nicer, since it’s proven to be more visible than the concept art suggests both here and in Shanghai.

Curious. We just cancelled our December 2020 trip today and rebooked for the last week of April into the first part of May 2021. I'm guessing it won't be done by then, but maybe????

Looks like they have color coordinated the Tron show building and the tunnel at the TTC.
