I prefer Lands also as they are more themed I think and look better and like mentioned, give more space but I do like the way Epcot is done.

Why does UoE have noting at the exit, shops, interactive enviroment, resturant, etc?

Imagine a mission space restaurant. Id eat it!

You'd eat the restaurant?!

Godzilla!


To be honest, I prefer lands over pavilions. The Land just feels like an intricate shopping mall to me. Not that that is a bad thing.:lookaroun

And lets not forget Fantasyland and the sea of strollers from IASW to Cinderella's Carousel. Walking through there is a nightmare sometimes! :hammer:

Lands give more options for attractions, restaurants, etc, and also provide better means for expansion. That being said, pavilions can also work, provided they are big enough and offer enough things to do inside.

It's like comparing Apples to Oranges, and I feel the question is irrelevant. Lands and pavilions have COMPLETELY different purposes.

I don't think the very concept of EPCOT would've ever succeeded if it was "lands" instead of the pavilions.

I don't get people like this if you think it's so irrelevant why did you respond. Here's some advice next time you think a thread concept us so irrelevant do us a favor and don't respond.

Cool it.

They have entirely different purposes. The argument can't be made that the Magic Kingdom would've been better if it was pavilions and EPCOT would've been better as lands. It makes no sense. They have completely different purposes and are put to use in different ways. EPCOT was meant to be updated quite easily, to keep it from getting stale. To be an ever-changing marketplace of ideas. Hence we have pavilions.

The Magic Kingdom was meant to be a timeless, complete-immersion entity. Hence there are lands.

I just can't say one is preferable to the other, because they are so different. Like I said, the question is irrelevant. It makes about as much sense as asking "which do you prefer: water towers, or lakes". :hammer:

This thread is not about MK being better with pavs and there is a difference between pavs and lands

imo, they have more leeway to veer from the theming when it comes to land.

example is MILF. People don't think it fits tomorrowlands 'theme', but looking at the trends of the attractions and look over the years, tomorrowlands theme hasnt remained the same. They keep modernizing the theme to peak guests interests with the attractions they add in there.

But with a pav it seams like the attractions HAVE to fit the theme, or else the pav gets destroyed and a new one emerges, or they just overhaul the inside. Maybe im wrong thats just how i see it

Hypocrite! You were constantly arguing with me that MILF fit in Tomorrowland! Also there is no leeway in Disney themeing, do not spread your opinions as facts. :wave:

WOL is the ultimate example of what a pavilion should be. You walked into this huge space which was all themed to one concept. Once inside you had the option of visiting an E-ticket attraction, a D-ticket attraction, and various other attractions. It also offered a place to dine. If every pavilion was built like that, imagine what EPCOT would be like.

Yeah. . . How did that work out for Wonders of Life? :drevil:

I vote for Lands. :lol:

EPCOT is so special and so different - I can't imagine it any other way. I think I like the uniform theming of Future World with the different pavilions....I just can't imagine it any other way. Guess my Imagination is busted.

:lol::rolleyes:

Not irrelevant. He was inquiring about peoples preferences. A preference is in no way a direct comparison by any means.

"Do you prefer the classic set up of MK where the park is split between 5 main lands MSUSA, AL, FRL, FL, TL, or they way Epcot is set up with only two lands with different pavilions"

Using WoL is a bad example, because is every pavilion was like WoL, then Epcot would be closed. (except for special event overflow) :lookaroun

Like we said...Bad Management and allowing the pavilion to grow stale did that.:rolleyes::lol:

However, the FULL Pavilion Plan is a good one. See The Land for example...E Tic that entertains, Ride through and movie that inspire and informs. Add in a few restaurants and it's a full Pav.

Exactly! It is a much better concept than TT, The Seas or evan Horizons. As great as the ride was, it didn't have much of pavilion.

*avoids tomatoes* :lol:
