The Piggy Bank?The Big Bang is supposedly still a part of it, probably on the ride? They still said the ride will involve time travel in today's announcement, and the monorail spiel says we'll go all the way back to the Big Bang.

But remember, exposed steel is a failure by Disney fans standards. So, box.That looks like a whole lot of nothing.
To construct a building that huge without (seemingly) any actual substantial show scenes/sets/figures is kind of tragic.
Disney: "We're gonna do a big bang ride"
Imagineer: "Which big bang? And we have to mix music into this? Ohhhhhh, I get it..."
The loneliest set piece.
I honestly don't think they should've shown inside the building. I know they want to prove that this ride actually exists and it's happening, but like... what they showed was quite frankly embarrassing. It'll get people excited about a coaster, sure, but this ride is absolutely NOT supposed to be seen with the lights on since it's all screens pretty much (and minimal set pieces).My only issue is that I would've probably gone with a different image for the promotional material because this was bound to get a lukewarm reception.
That's what happens when you try to create a five year marketing plan for a ride that should have taken three years...I honestly don't think they should've shown inside the building.

Epcot has been primarily slow, heavily themed, indoor rides for the past 39 years. This is long, long, long overdue.I choose option three: a heavily-themed interior, and if that means sacrificing some of the attempted "thrill," then so be it.

I agree with you both sort of and you guys are actually sort of agreeing with each other in a round about way.I didn't say build a slow dark ride (though I wouldn't have complained). I said build something heavily-themed.
I reject the notion that the only avenues are:
1. Slow-moving, highly-themed dark ride.
or
2. Coaster in a dark, empty box.

The ride you guys are thinking about as a comp for what this ride SHOULD have been like is The Mummy. An immersive, themed, and thrilling coaster, all done inside of a box.
If this was going to have show scenes and physical effects on the level of ROTM, I would be completely satisfied.I agree with you both sort of and you guys are actually sort of agreeing with each other in a round about way.

The difference is there's a lot more to the Mummy than just the coaster-in-the-dark sections; there isn't more to Cosmic Rewind (at least as far as we've heard).If you were to ever see a picture of the inside of Mummy, it would look EXACTLY like what they just showed for Guardians lol.
