    What exactly ARE the plans for Pleasure Island?

    Has it been officially written anywhere what Disney's plans are for the now-defunct area of Pleasure Island? I'm all for bringing back the Adventurer's Club. But if Disney has actually produced their plans, its a moot point. They're not going to reopen a Club in the middle of a .....what...

    Jungle Cruise Temple

    I've noticed that most times Disney makes a wall, tunnel or supposed cave as part of a ride in DL or WDW its to go outside the berm or hide something that gives away the illusion. The WDW Jungle Cruise has that really enjoyable immersive temple tunnel sequence that the DL JC is missing (and...

    Is "Future World" part of Obsoletecot?

    I wonder if Future World was called something like Technology Showcase, obsolesence questions wouldnt be brought up so frequently. Nor would "What does Nemo have to do with the Future?" EPCOT was modeled after a World's Fair. Specifically, the New York World's Fair 1964. In a Fair, countries...

    minor Laugh Floor info

    Glad to! The theme of the show is typical comedy club. The forward 1/4 of the circlevision area contains 3 screens. The leftmost is about 10 feet square and used to display live shots of audience members who are being "interviewed" by the comedic monsters or just plain "picked on". This is...

    minor Laugh Floor info

    Yes, corporate. That is exactly the right word. More useless info... Before getting to the waiting hall, there was a doorway you first walk thru with an open closet door mounted in the teleport thingy, red light on top and all. But overall, the waiting area is not a warm and fuzzy feeling...

    minor Laugh Floor info

    Last Friday at 5PM, I was part of the test audience for the Laugh Floor. If anyone reading this attended, you might remember me as the guy they kept flashing up on the screen (aka picking on). For example, Mike's nephew says "Next Halloween I'll have a great costume. I'm going as that guy!" And...

    Why is Wonders of Life always empty

    Maybe if they cleared away some of the foliage in front of the pavillion. The dome is becoming obscured by trees. The growth is beautiful. but out of sight, out of mind.

    Undiscovered Future World Tour (& Guide) is the utmost

    No arguments. I'm sure what you get out of it depends on what you bring into it. To a hardened WDW-O-phile the tour is lightweight. It was my first visit to WDW in 5 years. Frankly I had never set foot in Innovations before, so that part was interesting for me. I will admit that I, too, got...

    Undiscovered Future World Tour (& Guide) is the utmost

    Does anyone know how I can get in touch with Epcot Guest Services from out of state to pass on a kudo? On Wednesday I took the Undiscovered Future World Tour and it was fantastic. Almost 5 hours of lore and details re: the major attractions. However the best part was our guide, a young lady...

    Yes, Undiscovered Future World looks like a winner. How far in advance should I book it? I assume they fill up.

    EPCOT Tours?

    Does anyone know a good site that will tell me about the various tours of EPCOT? By good I mean unbiased. I am interested in doing something backstagey, without going underwater. Thank you.

    First Photo of Inside Everest

    This brings up an interesting point about interior lighting on dark-ride type roller coasters. Space Mountain is dark for effect (you are not supposed to see the walls). Same for R&R coaster (you only see things in your "headlights"). Matterhorn in DL gets outside light and the interior rooms...

    Mission Space/Mission To Mars/Horizons

    I do beleive that the spaceship you see hanging from the ceiling while on line is the ship from the Mars movie. Tie-In? or maybe just expedient (and cheap).

    Anyone remember this extict post-show?

    sorry about the duplicate thread. my fault. but I knew the WDW Archivists would know what I was talking about. Now I remember the camera taking video and displaying it before exiting. Every time I ride the FedEx version I see myself on video at the end and a very tiny voice in my head says...

    Anyone remember this extinct post-show?

    The first time I went to WDW was in 1973, soon after Space Mountain opened. I screamed my head off during the ride, but it was the SM post-show that really blew me away. It used the same moving walkway that Fed-Ex has it's post-show advert running. It was a slide-thru of a house of the future...
