Epcot entrance hotel is dead. Thankfully.
Your drawings left out the glaring sun and 100-degree temperature outside for the 2½-hour line to get in for opening day.So yeah.....
How about that D23 Expo...?
Here are a few quick drawings I did that sum up the Expo experience....from a certain point of view.
I drew these a couple of weeks before attending my first ( and only ) Expo in 2015.
Turned out, these were quite spot on.
The 'Fantasy' and 'Reality' of attendee expectations.

Poor design, location, ruining sightlines. Paris proved its logistically possible but this isn’t Paris.I'm curious about your opinion here. Are you glad it's dead because you think it was a poor design, ruining sightlines, or just the logistics of trying to do something like that in the front of an active theme park? This assumes you meant the idea of something in the middle and not out towards the bus lots.
Oh and plenty of info (and a name to a face) of the new whiz bang nighttime thing. Not that one but the other one.
I was hoping this might be hinting at a new boat ride in World Showcase or something, but it's almost definitely related to the cruise ships.boat stuff
My guess here is that they are done with the current naming of Future World. I bet the thirds are what we currently know as Future World East, West, and the Innoventions area in the center. One or more of the newly titled areas may have world in the name.And the thirds of Futureworld.
could this mean expansions to the parks current footprint? or is that not a possible meaning?Plus a few other WDW items outside of the berms. One of them just outside.
So nothing for DHS or DAK? That sucks.If anyone still believes anything they read online, expect this presentation to be Epcot heavy. There should be something for Shanghai and something for Hong Kong, a few Marvel things for DCA (but don’t call it Marvel) including something I don’t think is “out”’yet - well not in the US (and it’s not Slingshot), boat stuff as well but plenty about Epcot. New CV film details. The UK project everyone’s waiting for. SSE. And the thirds of Futureworld.

Expansion? not that I know ofcould this mean expansions to the parks current footprint? or is that not a possible meaning?
certainly not a WestCOT plan
Not that I’m aware of which of course isn’t everythingSo nothing for DHS or DAK? That sucks.
While I know it won't touch the original revel of the park, will the improvements being made to the entrance at least be a step towards a better reveal?Poor design, location, ruining sightlines. Paris proved its logistically possible but this isn’t Paris.
The original reveal and entrance of the park was a masterpiece of design.
I don’t think the changes will alter the reveal. My biggest disappointment is the moving of the tram station away from the multi modal interchange it strived to be. But that’s the world we live in now and I’m surprised it took so long.While I know it won't touch the original revel of the park, will the improvements being made to the entrance at least be a step towards a better reveal?
Possibly Hotel related. (More details on the Star wars hotel, possible MK resort are hotel?)could this mean expansions to the parks current footprint? or is that not a possible meaning?

Giant "Train In" Movie at the big berm near Tron. Doubles as new train parking spot and a way to hide the hotels from inside the parkPossibly Hotel related. (More details on the Star wars hotel, possible MK resort are hotel?)
When I went in 2011 it was sold out for the first 2 days being that the bigger panels (movies, parks and legends awards) were on Fri & Sat..Sunday was a just little things not ones really thought were important..I do like it that they spread it out to make it worth going all days rather than cramming it on the start of the expo.Anyone know, has it sold out many times fully? I always thought there were day of tickets available.
