Star-Lord at Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind

Disney has announced that Star-Lord will return to Walt Disney World's EPCOT on September 29, 2024, for a meet-and-greet.

The location for this appearance is tied to Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in World Discovery, though Disney has yet to provide further specifics.

Star-Lord has appeared at EPCOT before during various events including the “Guardians of the Galaxy - Awesome Mix Live!” concert series, which took place in the America Gardens Theatre at EPCOT. This show, held seasonally during the summer from 2018 to 2019, featured Star-Lord and Gamora leading the audience through a musical experience inspired by the Awesome Mix soundtracks from the Guardians of the Galaxy films.

OK. Sorry, didn't have a lot of sleep yesterday, slow on the uptake.

I think he meant odd suppository, like rectal suppository as it is a laxative ;)

It was a joke: https:///2025/03/guest-defecation-shuts-down-disney-ride-for-third-time-this-month-em1/

That's an odd supposition...

Maybe someone defecated near it, and the fumes weakened the glass's molecular structure!

That's not true. Tempered glass is very susceptible to focused impacts. That's why those emergency escape tools with a tiny metal point will shatter a car's window with very little force, and why a great many tempered glass PC case side panels have shattered simply by laying them on a tile floor because one of the tiles' corners was sticking up. If something hard and pointed hit it in the right way, it wouldn't have necessarily taken much force at all.

If someone was wearing something like a metal ring and hit it in the right place, especially near a corner, it is possible to break the glass rather easily.

The building is just settling on a sink hole.

Definitely not a punch, but a metal water bottle strapped to a backpack whipping around could generate a lot of power.

Giss Neric19 days ago

Shattering tempered glass requires a huge amount of force so I'm not sure if someone punching the glass is true.

bmr159119 days ago

I’m eager to hear how that happened. Someone lean on it with too much weight? A flying water bottle?

The VQ system has finally ended today for GOTG: CR! Standby line starts tomorrow Tuesday, February 25, 2025. The VQ system was reportedly supposed to end multiple times during some lull periods, but never came to fruition. It went through 2 hurricane closures, but nearly 3 years later after the ride opened May 27, 2022, the VQ has concluded and standby is finally here. Scatterplot of every single VQ data point collected for the past 1002 days. Here's my final update for it and wrap-up post:

I for one hope that one day they can find a way to add railings within the pre-show spaces to reduce the pain point that is the funnel at the end. Ideally, it would be tiered "rows" within the preshow space where a CM then can release each section one by one instead of the mass release. I also think Disney should really enforce kicking people out of line who exit the preshow early to get a headstart.
