This could be why they are switch focus to "improving" and adding to existing DVC properties rather than building giant standalones.
I would imagine as the inventory decreases we will see bungalow additions to both GF and BLT...although I would think beach club and boardwalk would be left alone.
I think some well placed tall giant palms behind morocco could block the hat tip if necessary, and still not detract from the view.
Although I just think that the hat should be recycled into pins and buttons. Own a piece of the hat!
without the thatched roof those units look like mini Howard Johnsons...I think it looks a lil cheap.
Although I bet the inside of those suckers are going to be very very nice.
Actually, If they were to replace this ride...I would like them to keep the spirit of the ride and change it to a ride through of Disney's history...A little armchair imagineering if I May:
Do an updated omnimover, Literally a history of Disney movies
Start with a large animatronic of...
They might as well just rename the park to "Disney's Florida Adventure"...it's pretty much steering far away from the original concept (even the watered down version of what walt envisioned).
Destroying a country's culture through branding and fiction is going to do nothing for these pavilions...
Actually, they should expand DL....
I would love to see a Sci-Fi/Fantasy Heros and Legends themed park...
SW, Avatar, Marvel, Tron...maybe with a little Pixar (incredibles/wall-e) thrown in.
All underdeveloped properties (except for the new avatar stuff) ripe for the picking...
So while I like the idea of EPCOT getting love, I really wish they would focus on fixing the eyesores they have rather than adding buildings and plugging in movie characters.
I have no doubt that if they put in a Pixar based ride in the French Pavillion that it would be successful. But it's...
This right here...although BC and BW are a little far to walk after hiking through epcot....
Now if they would just build a fantasyland themed Eurovilliage hotel that you could walk right into FL from the back....it would almost feel like an extension of the new FL
They just had too much going on...plus it was rough because whole families would be turned away if they had a minor...I could imagine you could split the island in two, and treat one side as the Kids only section that had it's own thing going on, much like the cruises do now. Pop a pager on the...
I'm surprised they didn't try to build a "tortuga" type resort on this little patch of land when Pirates were all the rage. I actually think they should turn this into a Pleasure Island successor...a smaller yet manageable island of booze and adults.
I like this....it's all of the above. And this is exactly what EPCOT needs. Now if they can do it without plugging in Pixar and Cartoon characters all over the place. Which reminds me....anyone know what the avg. wait time for nemo is?? 3-5 minutes maybe??
all of these contracts are staggered....so when one 50 year lot is up they have so long to sell that block off and so on. They are doing it now, they can do it then. You also have to imagine that they will run out of room sooner or later in the next 20-30 years...so it's just going to be a...
