It just might get a little annoying if you're sitting under the track and you hear the same sound clip over and over.

    In all honesty, my sources told me a year ago that it was on the table. TL would have become BnL esque. Something I wanted very much! LOL

    Shouldn't a multi-month closure involve a vast improvement?

And maybe they were just going for something more fresh in regards to the new spiel, its as good as the previous one. Improvement in this case is subjective, there's nothing inherently wrong with the way it is. It is a people-mover and overview of Tomorrowland.

    What's next? Something for new Fantasyland?

    "Over there you can see the Dumbo Spinner where you can ride for 60 seconds in the air in a fiberglass recreation of an elephant with mommy issues"

    Seriously?

    Disneyland had very little to do with toons when it opened. Shame it lost it's way.

    Though, if Tomorrowland DOES change back thematically to what it once was, in the 70's and 80's, than this is a Non-issue. It'll fit the theme well, then.
