All we can hope is that Chapek blunders a big deal project (that doesn’t involve WDW) and gets shown the
Well if Galaxy’s Edge doesn’t deliver financial results soon you may get your wish. Along with a bunch of other people.

Wasn’t his baby, but I suppose you can blame him for budget/entertainment cutbacks and the messaging/promotion.
Though I’m fairly confident long term and once ROTR comes, all of this will be a moot point.

I agree. I think this has more to do with a Disneyland problem than necessarily a Galaxy's Edge problem (although lack of a ride and entertainment cutbacks didn't help - hopefully they can add the entertainment in quickly...)

The ax falls swiftly in Burbank.
Staggs Ale? Does Chapey even have a beer named after him? They could repackage Budweiser as “Cheapy Ale”

A small snippet of last night's show. No perimeters due to rain/wind:
Lastly, when do the RoE barges come out? I have time to kill right now and can be there in about a half hour. I'm curious about this "new info".

@marni1971, nothing much new was mentioned about EF. Past, present, and future will be featured. Special effect kites were mentioned as well. I'll upload the video later.
It was the first time I specifically heard Tomorrow’s Child mentioned. But I may have missed a previous mention.

....where did you hear that? This is the only point they gave real info on Epcot Forever. I can't review it right now because I'm in the Land.
Interesting. The version I’ve heard at 59 seconds cuts back to the male voice mentioning Magic Journeys, Tomorrows Child, Golden Dream and One Little Spark.

I have the opening segment too that I'll give a listen but I don't recall anything special either.

is it just me or is that spiel way too forced!!! Its like they are trying too hard, and worried their point wont get across about change.
Like I said earlier, I'm shocked they're starting this, this Early!!!! The last time I heard an annoucement like this was Light Magic during DL's MSEP 1996 Final season! We all know ROE is loved but this got to be the first time I heard an announcement like this in WDW!

Here's the first part for anyone that are curious:
I...didn't listen to it again but figured some might be interested. Between this and part 2, there was a 10 sec spiel about thanking everyone for waiting while the bridge was up.
Maybe they're changing spiels or maybe @marni1971 got a super secret special preview?

I hate when they use Walt quotes to match their agenda

Tomorrow’s Child and Magic Journeys were mentioned by name by Chapek the day it was announced.
Just watched/listened to the videos @trainplane3 posted (great quality, BTW
). I agree, it seems way too forced to me. I have other quibbles with parts of the script, like the aforementioned quoting Walt to suit current agendas, but that's a different topic.
