EPCOT Test Track to be reimagined

There's already one video out from a few hours ago:

Gosh, that would have fit perfectly in FUTURE WORLD.

I already love it way more than 2.0 just from the video.

The narration, music, and filled in scenes makes it feel much more like classic Epcot. I can't wait to go on!

This is a genuine improvement to the attraction in nearly every way.

I’m sure some who felt they were promised a return to World of Motion-vibes may be disappointed, but I’m pleased with what we’ve gotten.

"It's always fun to be free!"

Love this - feels like a modern take on Classic Epcot

I personally like this much more than the previous versions, but no one can deny that it feels like this is the most “filled” version of test track we’ve had.

Little thing:

 

[Horizons '83]

Love the new show scenes. Feels more cohesive and more Epcot then our current Epcot.

 

[ToTBellHop]

This looks great! A lot more physical sets than expected.

 

[ChewbaccaYourMum]

That part where it transitions to the "sensor view" is incredible. I bet it's much better in person as well.

As a 26+ year member and daily visitor of WDWMAGIC.COM ... and someone who has ridden World of Motion (as my "all-time favorite ride ANYWHERE/EVER"), TT 1.0 & TT 2.0 all many times each. I feel TT 3.0 is as GREAT as can possibly be. They smoothly crammed more WoM Easter Eggs than I thought ever possible, and the overall ride "touched my soul" in ways Disney hasn't done for me in at least 20 years. My cynical side still says this ride is GREAT primarily b/c Disney had someone else's money to play with, but maybe ...just maybe....this will reawaken eagerness for more corporate sponsors, because, to be fair, Disney was, in my opinion, at its creative apex when virtually every major attraction had a sponsor.

They spent their own money, too, and utilized their creative talent. Someone in WDI still understand’s Epcot’s purpose. This is the correct way to turn a classic Future World ride into a thrill ride. I see why they are telling CMs they can video this.

 

[wdwmagic]

Looking good from these videos!

 

[CAlexander]

I am pleasantly surprised by what I'm seeing. I can't wait to experience this.

 

[Horizonsfan]

Looks fantastic. I bet there’s some WOM Easter eggs hidden in the garage portion that are hard to spot on video.

 

[Notes from Neverland]

Looks good! This was more of an overhaul than I expected. The final space before you go outside is really cool.

JOY! WHIMSY! TECHNOLOGY! EDUCATION! OPTIMISM!!!

THIS IS MY EPCOT!

JOY! WHIMSY! TECHNOLOGY! EDUCATION! OPTIMISM!!!

THIS IS MY EPCOT!

Seeing these reactions is getting me hyped. I might actually refrain from watching most of the ridethrough so I can experience this in person (eventually).

It may not be EPCOT on a grand scale, but it certainly is what I expect from a “new” EPCOT. It looks solid, has class and optimism and feels rooted in the the roots of the park. No excuse for any forthcoming pavilion refurb to not be on this level.

 

[JackCH]

This looks so charming and went way above what I was expecting! And feels very "EPCOT"!
