News Circle of Life at The Land Pavilion permanently closing in early February 2018

[nickys]

I do want to point out that an IP has been removed from Epcot.

True.

But to be replaced with a different one ...........

 

[mikejs78]

It’s almost as if they have too many spaces that they don’t know what to do with... wonder what that could mean for them...

That sounds...ominous... Honestly the fact that they can't figure out what to do with these spaces is a failure on their part. There are so many possibilities.

Of my dozens of trips to WDW, I entered this theater once. Once was enough.

 

[Zeb Zoober]

Um...yeah let’s not act like that’s happening, right (?)

My point is that there are better methods of getting a point across than fear.

It's not so much that I like the film, but I do enjoy sitting in a dark room for a period of time, all while having some OK A/C. It worked wonders the last few July 4th's. Now that this and Energy are gone, I've lost my two summer napping spots, haha.

Well, the American Adventure will be out of refurb by then!

But, until then... Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous?*


*It's a hint

AA, and couple other places are also great for relaxing inside. I won't doze off during AA though, haha. I'd feel bad if I did since it's a great show. Energy and Circle of Life of late weren't quite in that category, imho. I felt way less guilty if I closed my eyes and tuned out the sound.

closed and replaced with nothing yeah good goals.

If you are a TDO accountaneer these are EXCELLENT goals to achieve

I think many people missed this line in the news item:
"It is expected that the theater will be used again for a permanent attraction at a later time."

This is where many of us now turn our collective virtual forum heads at @marni1971 and breathlessly await his vague hints at what IP and theme our "new movie" will be so we can all fly off on virtual guesses about it.

 

[brb1006]

Yes.

@Cmdr_Crimson the dream isn't dead yet.... hopefully

 

[THEMEPARKPIONEER]

Disney really needed that space

 

[NearTheEars]

Seems to me like a great place to move the film previews and return the One Man’s Dream film.

Better off looping the 1966 E.P.C.O.T. presentation instead..

People who are napping are not in restaurants or gift shops...

Potentially it won’t involve the type of IP we’ve come to expect.

Am I supposed to feel bad about this? I feel conflicted, because its a truly awful show and I haven't wasted time on it in decades, but its another empty former attraction...

Is an attraction truly an attraction if nobody ever goes to it?

I don’t know of any attraction "nobody ever goes to"

I'd call it a "sub-traction."

 

[larryz]

I don’t know of any attraction "nobody ever goes to"

I guess that would be called the opposite of an attraction, or a "repulsion."

 

[punkabella]

Maybe Kitchen Kabaret will come back.

The only thing I will miss is the Wall mosaic.
