Rumor New nighttime show at Epcot

[flyerjab]

AmAd should finally go digital and have Golden Dream replaced again. Circle of Life will be replaced and Living with the Land will receive another update.

Is SSE scheduled to be updated as part of this grand re-imagining, as it were? Or is that, along with Imagination, something for later?

Martin said yesterday that version 5 of SSE is in the very early stages of planning right now but it is later on in the plan so we are stuck with the SSE for Dummies we have now for at least another few years.

If any those rumors are actually true, Epcot 3.0 sounds pretty awful. Potentially even worse than it's current form, let alone EPCOT Center. That Illuminations rumor in particular was nauseating.

The only thing I'm pleased about is the lack of any rumors about messing up Spaceship Earth, American Adventure and the Land

The American Adventure and Hall of Presidents are snooztopia. Half of Spaceship Earth can be messed with because there is nothing to see (the part where they tell you your future).

For a future CEO you show a lack of understanding.

American Adventure absolutely not. As for Hall of Presidents I would be surprised if anyone would sleep through it these days though if I were Disney's PR team I would hope for it. The descent of Spaceship Earth needs to have a fitting ending similar in tone to the 86 and 94 endings.

Is the film in LwtL planned to finally get updated during it's refurb?

 

[Miceberg]

Anyone have any knowledge of what will replace Circle of Life?

probably another show more boring than sitting on a bench watching paint dry with whoever was in charge of refurbing JII.

 

[Miceberg]

*sigh* That's what I'm afraid of.

Something still appropriate for the building.

Will the retro wall carpet mural be saved?

Except you can't find a bench to sit on to watch the paint any more...

That other site just said that the nighttime show has been fast tracked?

 

[Marc Davis Fan]

The site that shall not be named just wrote that the new show is coming in a few months. Do our insiders (perhaps @marni1971?) have any thoughts on how it turned out? It would have to be astonishing in order to succeed at outdoing the incredible emotional power of RoE, IMO. Most importantly (IMHO), will it be IP-free? (Or will it be "more Disney"? )

 

[jaxonp]

Well the team that was working on ROL was released to work on an Illuminations replacement. That has been some time.

Last I heard it’s a year or more away. The dates jumped from 19 to 21 to 20.

And how does Click-bait define "soon" (in terms of soon being when the new show debuts). "Soon" in Disney terms could be Summer 2020.

Ah, I was in the right ballpark, LOL

It's a shame Click-Bait uses such vague phrasing to get people worked up over. I'm guessing most people will assume within this year when he says "soon". This is (one of the reasons) why he gets criticism ...
