Theyre gonna knock down their $200 mil princess house?
What’s the LEGITIMATE chance of that in the next 20 years...
Those “new pavilions” have been percolating for 30 now as is...

That's true.
It's just a boxy building with several themed rooms. If the Frozen fever ever thaws, and you don't need three rooms of them, you can move the sisters into Norway. Or, more easily, incorporate them into the Akershus character breakfast and have them be the greeters in place of Belle.

I didn't say in any of our lifetimes. But someday yes the infra-structuring can be redone. maybe martin will explain it better. edit:::: I remember now, he simply said it was "expendable".

Many of those areas could be hypothetically “reworked”
But let’s be practical: the frozen meet and greet and the rat clone are the first legitimate world showcase reworkings to break ground since 1986...
...so that is the pattern to expect till broken. That type of thing.
I put my PCQ on the Mary poppins or SOME Britain addition at a reasonable 50%...the country additions???
High 80’s at best. Gonna have to “show me” like I’m from Missouri on those.

Are we allowed to discuss waxing?
Regarding architecture, as much as I like the Brasilia take on modernist architecture, I worry that scale and cost will drive them to something more traditional. But I think Portuguese Colonial will be fine.
I wonder if they'd try to revive the Rio IP with a sequel or tv treatment and leverage it in a pavilion attraction? Or the opposite. To me, the character IP exceeds the quality of the latest movie so it may be one of those weird IP situations where parks could help the pictures arm.
I'd actually be more interested in some kind of eco-tourism attraction or exhibit featuring the Amazon. I think another Circlevision would be repetitive but I'm not creative enough to come up with something more original.
For restaurants I'd love to see a churrascaria or petisco.

It's been brought up in other threads as tangents.

Yeah...you went down the hole on this one. Of all rumors...the historical context is heavily weighted on this one.

No doubt...rumors presented as possibilities - not facts - were never the problem. I don’t hate the blue sky...contrary to belief.
Good hunting in any case.

Besides just wanting a new pavilion, I really want Brazil to happen just to see how @Sirwalterraleigh reacts to the news....

Believe it or not...so do I.
The lack of world showcase project for now 30 years is an abandonment of the concept of Epcot...or sad reality that the context of the more current world broke it.
Those are not particularly “magical” things to ponder. But again...30 years.
We had toy stores and JC Penney was a juggernaut the last time a shovel moved in that fashion.

It's a reaction to @The Mom 's gentle topic-drift correction in the Coco thread, which was in part a reaction to a @marni1971 mini-revelation.
I thought there was a thread already too.

Yeah, but that thread title has only ten words. And geez no one has posted there in almost a month!
In fairness to @MisterPenguin , though, @The Mom did suggest starting a thread.
