Yikes, dont you realize that for its time it was somewhat of an engineering marvel? Then some moron dreamed up the idea to take the ICON of Epcot and hoist a "Mickey Hand" on top of it totally erasing and cheapening the graceful simplicity of the whole thing. Obviously, many people here dont see...

Pixie Duster, right after I posted that I had a small wave of guilt over how harsh it sounded ... of course there are women that can relate to EPCOT on the same level as men GENERALLY SPEAKING, I think its interesting how the different genders relate to EPCOT; men fantasize about discovery...

You see son ... museums are fun ... for people with BRAINS ! Now EPCOT is a museum in which you actually get to "live" the fun. Even better. :hammer:

Its kinda funny how men and women have such different views on the whole wand thing. As expected, I think most women "just dont get it" which is unfortunate. Epcot is about dreaming of the future and celebrating diversity in a really creative and inspiring way. This does not jive with "cutesy"...

There is ALWAYS a future to look forward to. The technology itself isnt really so important, but the its the INSPIRATION about the possible future that is exciting. Remember visiting future world in the mid-80s, and as a young teenager I was truly inspired to think of what life could look like...

Ive heard many people on different threads say that The Living Seas should be moved to Animal Kingdom. How easy ya think it would be to move the largest enclosed salt water tank in the world? Perhaps just pull up an 18 wheeler to the back entrance of LS, load her up, and drop it in AK...

I for one find "the tommorow that never came" extremely interesting and entertaining. To think of what people saw as the future (robot maids, etc) ala the Jetsons or Jules Verne's visions really is a hoot. I am 34, and visited Epcot for the first time in 1985. WOW - as a kid I can think of...

Do you seriously swim with Sharks in the tank? This diving tour really interests me, especially since you dont need a diving cert. But HOW am I supposed to convince my girlfriend to swim among sharks???:veryconfu , Im not even sure I am totally OK with this, as much as I WOULD love to swim among...

If youre gonna shut down Illuminations, you might as well shut down Epcot (sarcastic). But seriously, how much life will there be in World Showcase after dark without Illuminations? The thought of this boggles my mind (even though they probably have done this before)

I was reading another thread that mentioned Food Rocks in the Land Pavillion. Ive probably been to Epcot 6-7 times in my life, and the name rings a bell, but is it an attraction or just a restaurant. The other thread also mentioned audio-animatronics as part of Food Rocks? Is this true? Thanks M

Yes, but perhaps you install a Disney-fied Centraal Station, Red Light District, and several fine selections of bud. :D

__________________________________________________ Well, then I've got news for you, the Monorail is a Transportation System, not some perk. Almost everyone that visits the Magic Kingdom uses the monorail system. And yes, the monorails do provide park to park access already between Epcot and...

Monorails are for Deluxe resorts I think everyone is getting off-base here with the monorail expansion. I would LOVE to see the monorail expanded as its probably the most magical thing about the MK area of Disney and one of the big reasons I will pay extra to stay at one of these Deluxe...

You would be surprised, they pull around 15,000 attendees. Lotus domino/Notes is very popular and superior to its Microsoft counterpart, does anyone here care? lol Just to keep on topic, I booked POR riverside while there, first time there , counting the days

Lotusphere is a 4-day computer software convention that takes place at the Swan/Dolphin and Y&B Club. It is the most fun convention in existence for me because its in Disney. Rates for acommodations: Not including tax ASSports - 70 POR Riverside/Carib. Beach - $120 Y&B club - $220...

Anyone going to Lotusphere convention at Disney in late Jan 2004? If so, what are you planning to do about accomodations? Apparently, you can book discount rooms, but it really doesnt seem to be much of a discount

Just wonder if anyone here has stayed at the Beach Club Villas as a DVC or non-DVC member and what your overall impressions were compared to other resorts? Would like to hear both positives and negatives. Thinking about renting points to stay there. It seems nice but is the service there? How...

Look into buying a Disney Annual Pass, this is basically a ticket that gets you into the theme parks for the entire year rather than xdays. However, the real reason to do this is that you can book rooms with heavy discounts, which are called "AP Rates". If I remember right, the AP ticket is in...

Goofy for DIsney I would be SHOCKED if you cant a discount of around half of what you have been quoted (unless you are talking concierge, tower, etc). Have you tried book that Winter Fairly Tale Package? Which week of Feb (this does make a difference). Heck, go on Expedia just for reference to...

WDWDave Dave, its you that needs to grow up. If you really believe what you are saying then Disney Corp. must LOVE flushing their own money down the toilet (when they could be getting $10,000 per week for their resort rooms in not too distant future). Go ahead, pay for your Summer 2025...
