    Journey of Water featuring Moana coming to Epcot

    This. If you've ever been to Hawaii or Polynesia writ large, you can see that the volcanic islands are the PERFECT model for the water cycle. Hot sun evaporates H20 from ocean. Trade winds blow moist air toward island. Moist air meets windward side of volcanic mountain, and is suddenly...

    News New Epcot logo

    So I think there's a big hint here with the color scheme. They are roughly broken into 3 groups of 4, which would comprise the three different neighborhoods. The yellows/greens are World Nature: Land, ?Air (or just Soarin), Living Seas and the Moana Water area. The blues/purples are World...

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    I think you're right. Also notice that the 12 icons are arranged in groups of 4, each representing one of the neighborhoods. The ones on the left (greens and yellows) must be World Nature (Seas, Moana, The Land, and ?Soarin?). Not sure what the orange earth icon is. The ones in the middle...

    Predictions! Secret WDC Project — August 22 @ D23

    The dreamfinder (cough...GS...cough) seems likely to be right. Basically, Disney's trying to sell us a spot in the matrix. Our very own plug-in cube. I mean, Netflix is far more valuable for its user info than its subscription base, right? Disney's already got a ton of info on us. Why not...

    Predictions! Secret WDC Project — August 22 @ D23

    Ok, whoops. Ya got me. And to think I was just laughing at someone else's mistake of using PST. Not usually a mistake I make.

    News Expose reveals WDC control in online fan community

    Just wanted to say thanks to Steve and The Mom for keeping all non-personal details about this thread up here. This is a very big story, and really a microcosm of what else seems to be going on the world. I'm not going to pretend to know I even know 1/10th of the backstory here, nor do I even...

    Predictions! Secret WDC Project — August 22 @ D23

    It makes the most sense that this would be announced during the press event tonight. Don't know if that will be at 5 pm PST or 6 pm PST or 7 pm PST. I am sure we will know very soon. I doubt the announcement was supposed to happen at 2 pm PST.

    Predictions! Secret WDC Project — August 22 @ D23

    My WAG... New indoor theme park a la Great Wolf Lodge somewhere in Midwest (preferably MO) which will use black box tech.

    Predictions! Secret WDC Project — August 22 @ D23

    Well... that is interesting. I would think this would have to be something really big given the timing of the announcement coming right after Uni's bombshell. Hopefully this is really something that will be worth getting excited about. Also, will this announcement change your opinion of the...

    News Expose reveals WDC control in online fan community

    <speculation> Because you're missing the cynically obvious explanation: Micechat and TP aren't taking their own initiative here as "concerned fans." They're being told what to do by their corporate overlords. And the edict is blame Chapek for all of TWDC's woes. I could see how this would...

    News Expose reveals WDC control in online fan community

    Not that anyone cares about my opinion (I'm more of a lurker), but it is sad/amazing to see the disparate worlds of my internet obsessions collide in this thread. I never thought it would happen here, as WDW and Disney fandom was always my happy place. The parallels between this information...

    News Improvements coming to the entrances of all four Walt Disney World theme parks

    There is one thing more annoying. It's walking to the TTC from the Poly (cause you're closer to that than the GCH) to avoid transferring, being herded into the general TTC screening lines, then having to go through EPCOT security again on arrival!!! ARRGH! Can they please place a security...

    A Spirited 15 Rounds ...

    THIS x1000. I saw Solo with my 9 year old son on Father's Day. I would add that there were quite a few people in the theater too. I thought it was great, better than Rogue One (which may be a minority view, I know), way better than TFA. It really stirred the nostalgia I felt for Han as a...

    News Disney and Fox come to terms -- announcement soon; huge IP acquisition

    So... what now for DIS? With net neutrality gone, ya gotta think that AT&T will favor WB/HBO productions, Comcast is now more likely to get FOX, so they'll favor FOX/Universal productions, and who will champion the biggest studio company? Movie houses are going by the wayside, so who will...

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Honestly, re: security, I think we're over thinking this. If people are confined to the resort (like a cruise ship), they almost certainly will be screened on arrival. It is likely that from what we know, the SWGE experience will be after normal operating hours at DHS (akin to an EMH for SW...

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    Guessing "Wonders of the World"? With a possible double entendre on World to mean the Earth and WDW itself... Possibly another acronym off of Marni's cryptic list? "Probably. I could talk about **GE (confimed to SWGE, new Star Wars land). WRTW. 220 (theorized to refer to the new space...

    News Exploratory geotechnical borings for new Epcot retention pond suggest new projects are in the works

    I agree, it all depends on what the definition of a "Marvel Action Universe" is. For example, is a hotel M&G considered a "action universe" especially if it's not a permanent thing? The contract clearly seems to spell out that an arcade or VR-type area (a la Disneyquest) is an action universe...

    News Exploratory geotechnical borings for new Epcot retention pond suggest new projects are in the works

    So, Spirit strongly hinted that an entrance hotel was in the works, and kind of dropped hints that it would be a Disney360 concept, a la what others are thinking about here. However, right after D23, marni kind of hinted that there were 3 big ideas for the EPCOT makeover, one featured a hotel...
