EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

The Encanto show has to go. It’s an abomination at this point.

I saw the Encanto show a while ago. It was good, once. On the same day I caught the band La Calle on that same stage and they were incredible!! Definitely worth checking out. Marie

I feel sorry for the performers in the Encanto show... they did not write it and they seem to really try. It is just a blah Amusement park show....in a strange location for the theme. Maybe they will move over to DAK when that Tropical Americas land is complete.... Who knows....

I’ve walked there constantly at night and have zero issues seeing where i’m going. Frontierland on the other hand is a dim and tripping nightmare. I have stopped giving your post angry emojis per your request so give me the same courtesy and ignore my posts. Thanks.

I can respond to posts and not just use an angry reaction without engagement, thank you very much. But remember - You said I was on your ignore list.

I've never, ever had a problem walking around Frontierland after dark. I bruised my shin at Epcot in late 2022 running into something in the center spine well after dark due to poor lighting. Haven't been back to the center spine after dark since, did they improve the ground lighting, specifically in the northwestern quadrant?

I've never seen Encanto or Calle play to an audience that wasn't also dancing. It's the DJ that's got to since his music more than bleeds into the rest of the hub, drowning out the ambient music and the music from a SSE mini-show.

Communicore Hall is just way too barren. Coulda had a mural. Or large permanent banners like the ones in the Contemporary concourse. But right now it is this....

Interestingly, if you get lost in there, you can possible find an exit that takes you to Wonders of Life or Stitch's Great Escape.

Epic still has issues with LEDs, but it's certainly fairing better than epcot ever has since construction. Clearly putting acrylic panel over the leds and calling it a day wasn't enough.

"Can we use indoor LED's for this to save money?"
"Sure, it will be under acrylic"
"SOLD!"

I'm all for trees, but in this case their removal is a good thing.

 

[Bocabear]

Don't know why after restoring the original Fountain and getting rid of the tomb stones they would ever put those trees there to begin with... When I was there a few weeks ago I kept thinking it looked odd because you could not see through to the FOuntain.... Glad the trees are gone... and I am sure there will be festival decorations like there always were.....

When was the last time the view was unobstructed, Graveyard era or even before that?

Any updates on those ground lights that never worked well and began popping up? Are they still turned off with multiple random screws in them while Walt sits on the toilet watching over them?

Funnily enough in the Soarin Unscripted episode right around 4:25 you can see that they were going to use the shots where they pretend the lights still work. I believe final version of the film has them turned off. Someone somewhere acknowledging nothings gonna happen to them anytime soon

And no seating to watch the show,

There used to be great seating at the fountain view cafe. I loved the fountain of nations.

Oh for sure - I’m talking about pre-Starbucks. I know… I’m old

They used to have really good pastries there, just like Starring Rolls that is also missed.
