I still think the lighting on SE isn't that noticeable, but I'll have to see for myself when we get there. It's kind of hard not to notice things now, after it's pointed out over and over here! :D

I'm so excited to see the new entrance, the lighting, finally see those barges for myself that we are making Epcot our arrival day park! See firsthand in October.

Odd that they are replacing the colored concrete, which if memory serves was that way for a reason related to photography, with plain gray concrete.

Ah, that's what that is. In a previous post I mentioned the wiring looking sloppy. Definitely seamless! 🙃

If I was going to do this "plussing," and I wouldn't, I'd have gone with projector mapping.
Wow those look bad. How do you not design those to fit in the vertices instead of sticking out multiple inches? LEDs are small, they could have done it.

Just like the barges they do not seem to care at all what stuff looks like in the day, only at night.
They wouldn’t provide the intended effect if they were recessed and didn’t protrude enough for the LED to was the panels with light.

Wanna see my badge? 😂

Just pointing out an(other) error by a particular poster. Inspirational and aspirational are the words I’d use to describe EPCOT Center.
There are better ways to engage and inform that being condescending and superior though. I for one would totally discount anything intelligent you had to say if you started by responding to me that way.

Believe me, dozens have tried. None have succeeded. (He’s said in the past that he hasn’t been into a Disney park since before EPCOT Center opened. He’s also said he’s had annual passes and can’t remember when his last trip was. And varying stories in between.)
