RUMOR REPORT: 4/26/08
April 26th, 2008
The following rumors come from several different places around the web. They have some merit to them because the sources have been correct before. But they have also been wrong before. With that being said, NONE have been confirmed by Disney. Original D will not post as truth until they have been confirmed real.
-Star Tours 2. This is one that has been flying around for quite some time. A new Star Tours is in development with a brand new movie sequence, upgraded stereo systems, and upgraded projector systems. The new ride will have guests wear 3D glasses for some pretty cool effects during the ride. If this rumor is to be found true, expect the current ride to close sometime late 2008 or early 2009 and be down for almost a year due to the extensive rehab.
-People Mover. After the Star Tours ride is completed the new focus will be on the People Mover. Bringing this ride back has puzzled Disney about where to put the queue since the building are now inhabited by Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters. The solution? Tear down the classic pillar that currently only holds a tiny gift shop at its base to make a brand new and up to date loading platform for the new People Mover attraction.
-Astro Orbiter. As part of building the new loading area for the People Mover, Disney will design the building to once again move the Astro Orbiters to its classic location on top of the People Mover loading area and in the center of Tomorrowland.
-Wall-E. A 3 foot tall version of Wall-E is being made as an animatronic and interactive character that will be able to roll around inside the park and interact with guests. Nobody is quite sure where this little guy would go but Tomorrowland sounds like a perfect fit.
