I think this look is far better and a change in any sense is long overdue however i hope they dont advertise these as some kind of 50th....but you know they will 😅

Last time I flew my family to Florida for a Disney vacation, we saw the old signage with its hideous color scheme and immediately turned around, flew home, and went to Six Flags instead. The new design might entice me back next year.

I wouldn’t classify them as unimportant. They are the first and last things most guests see. Also they have previously received updates (obviously not as drastic) for other major events/celebrations. And at the end of the day this makeover was essentially a paint job, which the structures have always received every few years anyway. This time they just changed the colors of the paint they were using.

Love the warm white/golden glow. Much better than the harsh red in the previous version. A nice upgrade all around on this one.

If I had made a list of the Top 50 Things to Improve before the anniversary, these unimportant roadside gateways would not have been on the list.

Just got home from a week at the World... I can say the new sign looks good, but the auto plaza, the castle in the middle you can barely make out because its the same color as its background. It needs another color behind it to make it pop!

I like the old castle better. But not to say it won't grow on me.

My guess is most people you refer to tend to allude to more message board people ;)
