News Diver Lock-Out Chamber Demonstrations Return to The Seas Pavilion at EPCOT July 22

I don't remember there ever being seals at The Seas - just manatees.

Jokes aside, it's nice to see original elements returning (even if doesn't make as much sense without the "sea base" theme). Next up - hydrolators!!

I agree, it is good that they are bringing that back, but it just isn't as realistic without Sea Base and the hydrolators!

In all seriousness the delay in resuming this was because after they drained the chamber during the pandemic they didn't fill it up again for quite some time and the seals rotted.

That would be a Seal Base

They really should go back to the original storyline for the pavilion... If IP HAS to be involved, it can still have Nemo, but rather than finding Nemo, perhaps the focus could be on the actual Seabase... Maybe Nemo has become the Seabase mascot...but please bring it back to a focus on the Seas , their creation, and exploration... I would even be ok with a flat ride and sea themed play area outside of Seabase Alpha for kids, just not in the actual Pavilion... A new Pre-show about the creation of the seas (like the original film, but newer and with in-theater effects... Then the Seacabs down to Seabase Alpha.

I could be wrong, but it sounds like you want to plus an attraction that had been minused and plussing would only bring it back to the original creation. Sounds great so probably not going to happen. However, if they do how about going completely retro on The Imagination Pavilion while they are at it.

We loved this little show. A little over 10 years ago, my youngest got to be the "dive buddy" for the show and give hand signals to the diver. The magnet he got for his efforts remain on our fridge to this day.
