So they get the pineapple lumpia that was just taken off the menu at Pongu Pongu. Interesting.

It's gone? It was there in July, but listed as pineapple spring rolls I think. I had one as it's my favorite snack at AK.

It is still there but you have to request it, it is not listed on the menu anymore.

Bummer. Hope they keep it.

RUMOR: Spaceship Earth at Epcot Will Be Overhauled Once Again, Changes in Post Show Already Visible

I'm scared. I hope it's good. So they're going to mess with scenes after the industrial revolution??

I hope not I love the giant computer room, the family watching the moon landing and I think the garage is the perfect place to end it.

But after the garage and matrix tunnel they can change whatever they want.

Well this is only a rumor right now.

As long as Rome stills burns with that wonderful smell, that's all I need on Spaceship Earth.

I'm tentatively excited about this. SE has needed an overhaul for years. If it's done right, it should be exceptional! However, given Disney's track record of refurbishments resulting in the attraction not being as good prior to the changes, I do have concerns. The two refurbishments for Journey into Imagination destroyed that attraction.

I know we all point to that as the big disaster, and it was, but other refurbishments have been ok, and others have been awful. I'll put Tiki Room under awful, but I don't mind the PotC refurbs over the years. The Mexico ride refurb is ok. The Living Seas wasn't bad. But the Spaceship Earth refurbs have always been good, though I miss Cronkite's voice. Regardless, it is the centerpiece ride of the park and I just don't think they will mess with it too badly.

I know what you mean, but, over under on % of people that will need to google that name?

Are you calling me old??????? But yeah, sadly you are probably right.

I hope it's better than the last one... I love Judy Dench (as the narrator), and the colorful costumes they added, but the ending is poor.... the photo never works for us. I used to loved the final descent through the hanging lights with the beautiful music... however, the old classroom and bee scene was pretty bad. Agree that they need to keep Rome, and all the stuff at the beginning, though.

Add me to the Rome burning smell fan club.

I let out a full-on, out-loud dramatic gasp when I saw this headline. Be still my beating hearts.
