EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

Current state of the central planter ground lighting in case anyone was curious…

I thought someone said that was already fixed? Maybe they should just use classic old fiber optics like they used to have embedded in the pavement....I think they were more durable.....they sure looked better.....

I’m with you on this. Just the shimmer-effect fiber optics would be fine, no show sync necessary. They could even be warm white 100% of the time. Regardless, it needed to be fixed, like, ages ago. Embarrassing that it’s gone on this long.

After finally experiencing the full glory of Epcots center spine recently I have to say I would’ve preferred they just left it alone and used the money for Imagination. It’s so freaking sterile and corporate business park looking now.

Also the spinning earth is broken again outside M:S

I’d support an Alien retheme of M:S

Re-do the queue and add one combined preshow for all 4 theaters with an Alien Encounter esque animatronic and escape, and then have cast members whisk people away into their “escape pods” back to earth.

Maybe while they are at it they can just close that little circle for long enough to replace the planter with a small show fountain in the footprint....That would be preferable to the v***a planter for sure...

Communicore Hall is getting the Pierogies so I don't care what the rest of it looks like...I'm getting my Pierogies

So the good old College err I mean Communicore Hall is closed for the upcoming festival prep. Can’t wait to find out how they’ll put lipstick on a pig

Prepare to be disappointed. My partner is an Epcot CM and said the changes are minimal. So the festival excuse was a lie as we all figured.

The hall looks basically the same just with merchandise displays. Or so I’m told. But definitely not some wonderful transformation or anything.

Yeesh.

Sorry to all of those who bought their lame excuse that it would be gussied up for festivals.

 

[celluloid]

Case in point......They were never clear about what these "futuristic" outfits represented..

Reach for, hope and desire, building a world that inspires.

Yeesh.

It's spirit week at Blandville High!

Welcome to todays EPCOT.

Remember when they used the Wonders of Life pavilion for the festival center?

They put on a very good show back then.

Yup. At least there was some effort put into it. With so many recent projects it just feels like they’re phoning it in.

I don’t even see the point of this as guaranteed it’s the same merch you can get elsewhere in the park anyway, yet it destroys a lot of the quiet seating aspect of the building. So it’s a lose lose
