    I wrote this letter about the EPCOT GotG rumor if you're interested....

    For those that might be interested, this is the letter I mailed to George K. last week. I've not yet spoken with Guest Experience Services about it yet. I chose snail mail for my delivery method.

    While I think I follow your logic, I disagree on some points. Yes, Disney does hold the final decision on what theme means to them, it's their property and parks of course. The problem is that the theme was clearly spelled out when the park was built and dedicated. The theme was set, in...

    I just received a call from a Guest Experiences Services representative as well for my letter I sent to George K. I let it go to voicemail, I'll call her back at another time. I'm guessing it'll be the same conversation I had with another representative earlier in the year.

    I chose snail mail for my letter. I think that someone who has worked in the parks since '71 would appreciate the physical letter.

    I've got my letter to Georgie K all ready to go Now to decide, Snail Mail vs. Email. Instant Gratification vs. Gravitas

    I've always wondered why folks thought Inside Out was such a fit. Because they went through Imaginationland? The film doesn't have anything to do with Imagination (aside from being an imaginative film concept). Emotions yes. It fits closer to Wonders of Life due to its not so subtle tie to...

    I wrote this letter about the EPCOT GotG rumor if you're interested....

    Although @MichWolv knew to prey on my undying love for Bonnie Appetite to quickly find a contradictory statement from me, the proviso I put in was meant mostly for Journey into Imagination. I'll say that I still would prefer them to add a new attraction to replace the current turdnado, one that...

    I did qualify it as "for the most part" ;)

    Personally no. (can't speak for @George however) I don't want to bring back old attractions for the most part. I want new attractions. I just want them to match in theme and purpose with what the park was built to do. Bringing back an old attraction is just as lazy and unoriginal as...

    I wrote this letter about the EPCOT GotG rumor if you're interested....

    I penned one up a couple months ago to Melissa Valiquette and had a conversation with the guest experience folks (read it here if you are so inclined to keep this thread focused on George's letter). Your letter and conversation has convinced me to write to George K and Bob C, hopefully writing...

    Clear indication attendance projections are down

    While that might be an assumption that one could draw, I'd hardly label it as a "clear indication".

    Guardians of the Galaxy coming to Energy Pavilion at Epcot

    Sure. No reason it couldn't be done with adherence to proper theme.

    Guardians of the Galaxy coming to Energy Pavilion at Epcot

    I mean, I know that it's the final nail in the coffin of a once-inspiring park. I know that it's a signal that the people in charge of WDW and Epcot are so bereft of creativity that they can not find a way to make an intersting and fun attraciton from a topic that is only one of the most...

    I mean, think about the uproar if they removed an original pavilion for a comic book attraction, or replaced the centerpiece attraction of a park or something like that. Good thing they'd never do that. :cautious:

    After they put out th 30th "anniversary" shirts for Horizons, I think I lost the ability to be shocked at them banking on attractions they made the decision to close. This shirt at least doesn't celebrate the anniversary of an attraction that didn't come close to 30 years. It's still banking on...

    Or at the very least living into the spirit of the attractions that people were so fond of.

    And so the eternal struggle in my mind begins. What wins out, principles or nostalgia. I couldn't love the Dreamfinder shirt more, yet it drives me insane to pay Disney money to celebrate an attraction that they ruined and seemingly continue to want to fall further and further away from. We'll...
