EPCOT Journey of Water featuring Moana coming to Epcot

[Father Robinson]

I just want the new Partners Statue in Epcot as shown in concept...

I just want the front half of the park to be a park!

 

[CastAStone]

Hmm:

PROS:

• Moana deserves to be in the parks and people born after 2003 will be thrilled to see it
• Better than current small piles of dirt. Probably. Probably better than piles of dirt.
• Water is fun
• Not tacos

CONS:

• Communicore destruction seems unnecessary in a gigantic park with tons of empty space?
• Should this even be at Epcot? No, right?
• Takes up a huge amount of Future World without addressing capacity issues
• Wait, seriously, what is this attraction? Is someone ever going to tell us?

 

[DreamfinderGuy]

Looks very plausible but I wouldn’t get too excited either way.

April 2020 was a fun time. Guess that wasn't so plausible after all, huh?

Not every person born after 2003.

 

[CastAStone]

Not every person born after 2003.

Yes, not everyone likes the same things.

Yes, not everyone likes the same things.

Some of us would've rathered the rotting building sit there untouched for a little while longer until an inevitable shift in management that might've seen the value of the thing

Always seemed like Comunicore would have been perfect for a dark ride of some kind. Maybe something themed to "What's Next?" as a continuation of CoP. Definitely needs a robot butler and machine that robotically cuts your hair... We could name as something looking out to the ends of the earth. What would be a good name for that?

I hope The Zach considers the coconut as he builds this.

He is the Coconut!

Seriously this belongs in the Animal Kingdom...somewhere near the NEMO show... It should actually take the Chester and Hester area...Do a Polynesian Islanders village, some nature and Pacific Tidal Pool exhibits with this as the lead in...Then add a volcano coaster type attraction to the back of the area.

Shame.

Maybe they’re just digging a hole and letting it fill with rain water.

Thats the new concept for all of CommuniCore.

 

[Magenta Panther]

Shame.

So while Tokyo Disneyland is building three entire new lands, WDW is building a backyard with a water fountains. Hot spit.

This hiding stuff with large amounts of water idea has to stop.

What’s next, only open Epcot in a tropical storm.

 

[mikejs78]

I'm not super thrilled about the changes to Epcot, but at this point given that they're going with it, I just like it to get done. Having world celebration and this attraction done will be far preferable to the current state of Wallcot.

The damage is already done. CommuniCore West is gone. Then are not going to rebuild it, so let's just move on.

Or, you know, in the Polynesian themed land with the giant expansion plot.

Is landscaping really "construction"?

 

[Bocabear]

So...leapfrog fountains and some waterfalls...how very 1993 of them. This is a foolish move that will cost millions to fix...and it could have been easily avoided by putting it in the right park. They should save the money and spend it on rebuilding the spine of the park...

 

[HauntedPirate]

Just another misguided use of funds. Epcot is full of them right now.
