God, it's such a good ride.

Do they sell Guardians related food or beer near the attraction?

Moon.

How I wish. That concentration of heat and energy would physically melt both attractions... But, that's just me... 😁

Pretty sure they are actual stars harvested from deep in the galaxy, thus explaining the price tag for the attraction.

Hi from Paris ! With the refurbishment of Avengers Flight Force at WDSP, I'm wondering about the stars inside Cosmic Rewind. How does it work ? Is it lasers projectors ? Flight Force is very dark and we hope some stars like Cosmic Rewind 😅

I'm replying to myself in the past lol not all of it is bad mission space stuff is good as Centauri space stations name made me immediately reconsider also test track you ok too and sorin etc

Hadn’t really thought about it til this thread but I agree, this ride would have been far better as a mission to mars style ride with the launch being the blast off. Preshow could have been a history of space travel exhibit rather than a made up Zander exhibit. It would have fit the edutainment of Epcot better and been a better story with just a few changes. Still an amazing ride but the story is a mess.

I think the ride is a good blend of old and new Epcot but the problem is the new is....bad.....

Anytime I'm in Epcot I'll try and do this ride, it's great!

LOOK, when i'm in Epcot i'll do the ride, but i really thought it was rubbish. Sorry x

Fully agree. Honestly, the Guardians presence is shockingly.....not very abundant. This is far more of a galaxy coaster than a Guardians one. This ride would benefit from adding more planets and solar systems and less random spaceship fighting. First time riding: had no idea what was happening. Second time riding a few months later: still had no idea what has happening while ACTIVELY trying to make sense of it.

My biggest issue is that the non-IP Big Bang version would have likely been a better overall attraction. The Guardians IP is badly mishandled and almost superfluous to the ride (the two Guardians films are my favorite in the MCU and they're completely wasted on Cosmic Rewind), which has an essentially incomprehensible story (at least in terms of what happens on-ride).

Which is why I’m okay with it at EPCOT. The park needed a coaster and a knock your socks off “fun” ride. It got both and it doesn’t scream IP everywhere. The entire queue feels like OG EPCOT until the last pre-show.
