News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

i didnt know there were food options in the space at all, how did i miss that? Thats kinda nice having a couple counter service spots in there, but otherwise a bore.

But again I didnt know there were counter service spots built into this behind fake walls before so thats a nice plus imo

Pretty sure the windows were just covered. IIRC, they were open during the initial preview and then closed until now.

They were folding windows I believe

There have been no food options available prior to today. When it opened, it was an air-conditioned space, that's all.

Yeesh.

Honest to God, I’ve seen my college’s dining hall look better decorated than this. Wow. The most intriguing aspect of this dining hall is the pavilion logo flags along the walls, but those were there BEFORE F&W, so doesn't really count.

I don’t typically judge until i have seen things in person …but

This is embarrassing. Also, by management’s own modern metrics, a massive waste of space. Nothing here will entice people to come in and shop or eat - at least build out an interesting merch display/food kiosk. This looks so bland, I doubt anyone will drop a dime here. Geez.

It is so bad. Even the decor across the park is very scaled down from past years. It all screams massive budget cuts, and no creativity or imagination.

Yeesh.

So much for having the special event Food & Wine pairings like they used to do in the Wonders building.

Where are the classes going to be held now...Like they used to do the in WOL building? Guess those are gone for good now too. What actually was even the point of building this?

Yeah the classes and interesting things are gone. It is now just merch, food & beverage.

I thought a leading reason for this building was that it would be used for food & beverage demos/tastings/seminars. Are those completely gone from the F&W program? Are there even any new static displays anywhere?

Yep, and that has not happened. There are no display or seminars.
