News Character Spot, Innoventions and more to close in September

[Indy_UK]

So it will be the announcements of what's coming at D23 in August and about 2 weeks later the Bulldozers will be coming in to take out Innoventions, Club Cool and Starbucks ?

Seems like it. I think they're getting all of this out in the open since we're sniffing close to the 60 day point of that window. People will be planning on meet and greets and it's better to let them know where to find them now instead of two weeks out. Frankly, I think it's a solid move.

My boy was looking forward to Baymax so much. He's going to be upset.

You never know...they could park him somewhere else. Nothing is ever really permanent other than price increases and staffing reductions

Where am I going to find Joy and Sadness???

On this board daily !!!

On this board daily !!!

I really hope they introduce “condescension” and “sarcasm” in Inside Out 2

 

[JustInTime]

It’s a bummer that it looks like Sadness has been cut. She is the best meet and greet.

Yeah but they could just set him up in Spaceship Earth or somewhere else.

Why would they keep Baymax around - he is a character who actually fits Future World.

I wouldn't worry much about the future of Club Cool:

I mean, forget the characters, the real tragedy of all of this is losing the Fountain of Nations.

Is Club Cool really worth saving?? I was hoping a similar experience would re-open at the Coke Store at Springs. I guess not.

It’s a unique in-park experience. I think it’s worth saving when the alternative is more booze, food, or characters that don’t fit.

Tricking people into drinking Beverly is a core experience of Epcot, up there with drinking alcohol and complaining about how things ain't what they used to be.

OMG! Will Electric Umbrella be closing for good? Or is this a refurb?

 

[TOCPE82]

I really hope when the refurbish MouseGear they reintroduce the Centorium name at least.

Such a cool name.

It wont happen though.

I'd rather have more booze than nasty soda lol. BUT to each their own

We are losing the Fountain of Nations?

All we know is that it's closing on the date given. It might be for construction, it might be for demolition.

We'll know for sure at D23.
