Yeah, people in the comments seem to think it’s going to be a drop tower now lol

I love how the seating looks so similar to Tower of Terror.

it's all I can think about when I see it haha.

If they pull off that illusion completely, it means they did their jobs.

Are we 100% certain the ceiling isn’t “enhanced” in any way to look good in the picture? That’s the only part I have trouble believing in the picture itself.

Not doubting that it will look good in person btw.

I'm fairly certain that it's photoshopped in but I think they can make a similar effect work. If you look up cotton wool and LEDs, it creates a similar vibe.

The effect in the real image looks nearly identical to the small area that we can see in the concept art.

They've been thinking it for a long time. People see an elevator vehicle and assume drop tower because of Tower of Terror. I posted a size comparison of the Potter vehicle compared to the Scoop and most of the comments were saying drop tower.

Speaking of which, I have updated the comparison image.

Looks touched, i assume because the projection effects don't work at that light level for photos/in photos.

Just realized everyone was talking about the atrium and not the ride vehicle, egg on my face.

The other option i’m thinking is perhaps it’s a domed projection / led roof?

A way to create depth by blending the set into the projected part? Basically where the upper floor of the building gets that dark tone, as if it’s got cloud / mist darkening it, perhaps that’s all projected and the physical set ends at the 3rd floor windows?
