I just watch Tim's video about the christmas tree trail and at 14:44 you can see that someone has ripped a door off the green monorail on the resort tree! :teeth:

Yeah, gave me a chuckle when I saw that too.
 
New details about the space themed restaurant in Epcot.

From Screamscape, quoting job posting:

2019 - Outer Space Restaurant - Confirmed - (11/14/18) A new job posting from the Patina Restaurant Group offers some extra details about the future Space themed restaurant coming to Epcot between Mission: Space and Test Track. According to the posting they are calling it “Space 220”, but I’m not sure if this is simply a temporary project name or possibly the actual name. They are looking to recruit international employees to work in the restaurant to give it an International Space Station feel with a number of European candidates to be considered for 12 to 15 month long work programs.

“The dining room will contain more than 350 seats. Customers will access to the dining room thanks to two fully functioning elevators with large digital screens, similar to those used by tourists to access the viewing platforms at One World Trade Center and the Burj Khalifa. The Space Restaurant is using these screens on the elevator to simulate the trip to the space station. After exiting the elevators, customers will enter into the newly constructed restaurant that will be connected to the rear of the existing lounge. After walking through a small hallway, guests will enter into the main dining room that will have a 250-foot-long digital screen that flanks the back of the curbed room.”

“Space 220” seems like an odd name and likely a project name. Maybe it is just a typo and they mean “Space 2200” or something?

The elevators here kinda make me think of the old hydrolators at living seas. Throw in the tech they use at one world trade and I can see it being a pretty neat way to get into “space”

i also wonder if this is a test for what they will use with the Star Wars Hotel - that you check in "planet side" and then take an elevator like this that brings you up to the "space ship" where you will be staying
 
Guardians will feature controlled spinning and open before 2021.

by "controlled" do they mean the rider controls it or that the ride system will control it so that it can direct you to face what it wants you to face for show scenes, etc.?
