One might be heartened and cheer that Disney is at last seeing the light, and cleaning something. That could well be the case. But my inner cynic wonders if anything external motivated this. What is it about Future World East that might call for cleaning things up? They aren't planning anything splashy here, are they? Oh wait, they are. There is an enormous and immense press event in the Wonders of Life pavilion planned for February 11, the topic of which isn't disclosed (but is presumably the NextGen initiative we discussed here recently). Could it be that this wonderful "return to Disney quality standards" is really only happening because there is a press event happening here soon? We'll have our answer when we see if they clean the beam in other places AFTER the press event. I have my suspicions.
wilder rumors about Microsoft being interested in the Wonders of Life pavilion, which is where the second day’s press event will be held
