Originally Posted By ctdsnark I'm just glad I got photos of the old Ice Station Cool---mine is probably the minority opinion,but I preferred the surrealistic imagry of the iceberg entrance and the frozen caveman bearing a Coke---and there's no snow tunnel anymore! The new place just looks like generic ultra-modern design---big deal!!!

Originally Posted By danyoung I don't understand why Disney couldn't have done the refurb of the Coke area and still keep the ice tunnel. It was a pretty cool (pun intended) effect.
Originally Posted By MinnieSummer Yep. I agree. The old entrance had style the new one is just another generic entrance with no appeal.
Originally Posted By disney pete Yep also nodding in agreement loved the old entrance,Ice station zebra was the very first film i went to see with my Dad
Originally Posted By Labuda Count me among those who preferred Ice Station Cool. I'll still be making a stop at Club Cool to see it for myself next time I'm at WDW, but I do very much miss the ice tunnel and all the snow! Ice Station Cool had character - this new incarnation looks rather sterile.

Originally Posted By tonyanton While I liked the old theme, it didn't really fit into Future World IMO, plus their was no snow in the tunnel my last few visits (dating back to '03). The new look is modern and sleek and fits into the area well.
Originally Posted By Goofyernmost What?? You mean all of you folks think the old one is better and the new one is sacrilege? Well, I never would have guessed that this would happen!
Originally Posted By irishfan Yeah, I kind of agree, although walking through the igloo was pretty cool, the thing itself just looked so out of place.
