You know they should have put soarin back there with a soarin over the US film that would have drawn the people to the back of the park for sure.:sohappy:
Gonna have to disagree with all of you....AA is by FAR the most captivating show in WS. (save ROE)
It is WDI's crowning achievement if you ask me.

I agree about the barbecue. It might also be nice to have a wandering Franklin or Washington. I also think that they could perhaps fit a few historical artifacts in the foyer of the pavillion. I am sure that the Smithsonian or other museums would be willing to lend a few things since most of their stuff sits in storage. You could even rotate artifacts on a quarterly basis so that people could see different things on different trips.I agree about the lack of really good food in the American pavilion, and I like the idea of barbecue. That would be real American cuisine!
I think the whole area could use some additional ambiance. Here in Philadelphia, in our historical area, we have characters such as Ben Franklin, out chatting with the public and posing for pics. Maybe something like that would add to the experience.
Sure it could use some tweaking, but would I call it a joke? No way.
I love the American Adventure show...it always gets me teary, as do the Voices of Liberty. I look forward to both on every trip. It never gets old for either me or my husband. And I think the American Gardens Theater is in a pretty setting and offers some nice entertainment. I find it all to be a pleasant, if somewhat simple, experience.
When we're walking around the World Showcase and we get to America...it feels like home.

Now that thread is bumped up agian......how about authentic Philly cheese steak for a food item? :slurp:, New England clam chowder, sourdough bread from San Fransico, BBQ from Memphis, chili from Texas, roasted corn from the midwest, cajun food from New Orleans. Sounds a lot like the food and wine festival stuff but I think they should have that sampling all year round.

Class? Carnegie Deli? That joint's had more health violations than Dennis Rodman's "area." :lol:We could at least add some class to it. How about transplanting Carnegie Deli in NYC down there? With a to-die-for hot pastrami sandwich. How about a Philly cheesesteak place? A decent po-boy? Shoot, anything Cajuin (maybe some fried gator?). How about period-type food from the Revolution? Williamsburg taverns do a bang-up job on that.

I could not agree more!
I would also like to see what a restaurant that serves American food looks like. Can someone post a link?
:sohappy:
Agree 100%. It is a masterpiece in many ways.
Agreed! Not only is the show beautifully arranged and composed, but it is a technical marvel. The system used to operate the show is considerably complex, even now--how they built it 26 years ago is completely beyond me.
am i missing the point , but isnt America represented well enough outside the disney gates?
The USA pavilion is actually one of the pavilions that I'm most jealous of when we go to WS. But I always figure they are the hosts so they get the most! I always thought old Blighty was terribly neglected and horribly stereotyped!
I mean, we have an entire shop dedicated to tea?! And the only other things that define us as a nation are knights and the Beatles? We don't even have a proper show/attraction!
However, one thing in our pavilion's defence, I think it is the prettiest and it does the best fish & chips found on property!!![]()
