Circle of Life: An Environmental Fable

Wow...you can tell how old the film footage is by looking at those cars in the junkyard!

The film used footage from the Original film Symbiosis that premiered when Epcot Center first Opened...

Love the line about how ALL animals are important to the environment... Can someone explain what a mosquito does that is a benefit?

Male mosquitos pollinate flowers instead of sucking blood. Also, food for other animals.

After waiting for the film and watching the film my husband response was "that's 20 minutes we'll never get back"
Now that I think about that's the last trip my husband took with me.

Captain EO called, it wants its title as "single worst thing in WDW" back.

Captain Eo has a certain amount of charm to it. I can easily see where some would love it while others would hate it. It was amazing in it's time and place.

I haven't seen the Circle of Life film in a long time but if my memory serves correct it was nothing more than a show with a political view point that at times got a little preachy.

Remember that the 90's was also the years where they crammed being Environmentally-friendly down our throats..Let's not forget Captain Planet, Ferngully, Once Upon A Forest...Disney was trying to fit with the "IN" Topic around that time (around 1994)..

Saw that show for the first (and last) time on our last trip. It was awful. We didn't even notice it our first few trips.

I don't really agree with it being hypocritical though, because Disney set aside a lot of land to not be used for development. I guess if someone didn't know that (most people don't) it can seem really hypocritical though.

Circle of Life..is that the show that's running in the Land? (so sorry but I've never seen it. Don't throw things at me.)

I do wish they would replace the movie. I think it's a great theatre and addition to pavilion.

Not sure why so many people dislike this, I think it's great! It is kind of ironic how Timon is getting in trouble for building a resort, but to be fair Disney do a lot of environmental stuff.

I still love all the carpet on the walls of the waiting area. Classic.

There was a guy petting part of the carpet the other day. I'm not sure if he knew what he was doing or not, but I did my best not to openly snicker.
