Just to get up to speed: A lot of work went into EO. That's the point of the pre-show.

I was drinking coffee as I read this. Almost spit coffee at the monitor trying not to laugh. I would have to agree.

We were on a Ferry from Epcot going to DHS. It was 97 degrees out, no clouds, no breeze...The AC and or the fans on the boat were all broken. Everyone was dripping sweat...THAT was more enjoyable than that dumb a$$ pre show.

If you ever run for public office, you've got my vote.

Lol. The only favor they did for the op was replace HISTA giving him a reason to go to that tired corner of epcot again.
And the only favor it did for some of you, is give you something else WDW related to complain about and lose sleep over. :lol:

I'll most likely get bashed but I enjoyed EO and the pre show more than HISTA's.

I'm not going to lose any sleep over it, in fact, I'll probably sleep better.
Good for you, I'm glad that bringing back a 3d show that sits in a corner of epcot where you don't even have to acknowledge its existence if you don't want to, is in no way shape or form going to effect your vacation to WDW like some of these other people. Good attitude. :wave: :animwink:

Wow, I loved the HISTA pre-show. The original slide show was amazing. Nothing on video can reproduce the deep saturated images of color slide film. I liked the music and the theme. It was one of the highlights of EPCOT for me.
The second version wasn't as good, but I understand why they changed it. Kodak needed to highlight it's digital technology. I know it was schmaltzy, but I really loved the stories and the music.
I also like the aesthetic of both, choosing to use still images to tell a story, capturing the moments. So much of Disney and life is motion, movement, and video that is was a nice change of pace.
I never actually liked that Cindy Lauper song until I heard the Kodak versions.
I'll admit it, both shows made me cry almost everyime.

Stop you are going to make me break down just thinking about it. If you can watch that section and not be moved you may need to see a cardiologist or the Wizard because you may not have a heart.
I have to quit typing the tears are clouding the screen.
Seriously.
