Originally Posted By phruby I would love to see Tomorrowland turned into a mini Future World. Imagine if Innoventions was turned into an updated version of Horizons.

It's tough to tell, since the online map area measuring tool doesn't have historical images, but the Horizons building was somewhere in the 70,000-80,000SF ballpark, for a ~15-16 minute ride For comparison, the circular Innoventions building is only about 22,000SF (the Haunted Mansion showbuilding at DL is about 35,000SF for a 8-9 minute ride). Although the Innoventions building is pretty big within the scale of DL, it's easy to forget just how massive everything at Epcot is (especially the original Future World pavilions). Future World is about the same size as all of Disneyland

Originally Posted By phruby I don't know, if they were creative with space and maybe added a third story to it, something like Horizons could fit. If they used Pizza Planet as a loading area and then snaked its way back and forth inside and then upstairs with more snaking and then back down into Pizza Planet.
Originally Posted By RoadTrip <<Great ride - but I'm not a big fan of bringing old rides back.>> I would have to assume the great majority of DL's guests have never experienced Horizons. It would be new to them. I also don't think you would have to replicate the original... just use its overall theme as the starting point for designing the new attraction.

Originally Posted By trekkeruss "consider everything Disney built between 1983 and 1999, and from 1999 to today. One period is far more impressive than the other" 1999 to today perhaps doesn't look quite so bleak if you take TDSea into account.

Originally Posted By Dis-Philip Oh, and Leemac is also a fraud and a liar as wel. Stop talking about Toontown, DLfan85--it's not going anywhere. Star Wars Land is replacing the Simba parking lot. Stop reading MiceAge and WDWMagic and stop paying attention to the lies that the Evil Spirit, Jim Hill, etc. have fabricated and continue to fabricate just to get attention like the spoiled brats that they truly are. Where's Peter when you need him.
