    Was EPCOT supposed to have the PeopleMover?

    I remember hearing and/or reading somewhere (one of Martin's videos, probably) that at one point EPCOT Center was supposed to have a PeopleMover. Supposedly the CommuniCore buildings were even designed to accommodate it. However, I've never read anything else about it , and no PeopleMover tracks...

    Crowd levels at the other parks during SWW?

    Do increased crowds at the Studios during Star Wars Weekends usually translate into reduced crowd levels at the other parks, specifically EPCOT and AK?

    Should EPCOT's dolphins be released?

    What do y'all think? After the unfortunate incident at Sea World people are giving more thought to the question of how ethical it is to keep cetaceans in captivity. After all, dolphins and whales are highly social creatures adapted to life in the open sea. Keeping them in a tank, even a fairly...

    Is it possible to get into a Table Svc place with no ADR?

    I'm not talking about places like the Crystal Palace, Le Cellier, or the California Grill, which are probably always booked solid. And I'm not talking about the busier times of year, just slow-to-moderate times of year. I ask this because, with the advent of the Dining Plan and the Free Dining...

    Was the EuroDisney debacle a factor in EPCOT's decline?

    Lately I've been reading up on some of the "Disney Decade" plans from the early '90s that never saw the light of day; Port Disney, WestCOT, Disney's America, etc. The reasons for their cancellation (or radical downsizing) were diverse, but the failure of Euro Disney is always mentioned. That...

    Might the prevalence of Stitch have a sinister motive?

    We talk all the time on here about how Disney seems to be trying to shove Stitch down our throats at the parks. Stitch merchandise is everywhere, like some kind of persistent fungus, and I'm pretty sure he does meet and greets at all the parks to a greater or lesser degree (except maybe AK)...

    90 days out, can't make ADRs

    My wife and I have reservations at the Contemporary January 3-7, meaning that we should be able to make ADRs for our entire stay starting today, right? Well, the online system won't let us make ADRs for any day past Jan. 1. So I called, and the folks on the phone couldn't do it, either. Has...

    Need a suggestion for something romantic to do at WDW

    So, Future Gal and I will be in WDW for 4 nights in early January, and since she is our CFO, it's impossible to spend any money without her knowing about it, and hence hard to surprise her with anything. Nevertheless, since this trip is our anniversary present to each other (our anniversary is...

    Accommodation for fragrance-sensitive guests?

    Hi! Mrs. Future Guy and I are planning a 5-day/4-night trip to WDW the first week of January. We plan to stay at the Contemporary, but there's a concern: my wife has a serious sensitivity to the artificial fragrances found in perfumes, air fresheners, and cleaning products. Do the cleaning staff...

    Please Stand Clear of the Doors . . .

    Hi, everybody! I'm David, and I've lurked here occasionally over the past few months. I'm a Florida native, and a huge old-school EPCOT Center fan. Glad to be here!
