E.P.C.O.T. 1989 home video

[ABQ]

Just came across this video posted to You Tube a day ago from 1989. If you like the nostalgia, might be worth a watch.

Includes a great look at Dreamfinder and Figment.

Great video, love Epcot! nice to see it back in the day, only 7 years after opening, but it does look dated now, i like the new style, just wish imagination was given the love it deserves, and yes ! a Proper figment with dream finder, bring that back , IMO that suit now is crazy,

I was there that year too. This was the first trip to Disney World where my dad had a video camera at his disposal, and he recorded absolutely EVERYTHING, even rides where it was too dark to see anything on camera.

I wish it was still like this.

I love these types of videos. It makes me so happy and feel so peaceful watching people experiencing the park the way we loved it most.

That video was taken May 12, 1989 according to the caption. I checked my old ticket to see if I could be in the video, but I didn’t go to Epcot until June 1 that year. Missed it by 3 weeks!

I just want to jump into that video and ride Horizons, WoM, Body Wars, JII, UoE, and play in Communicore, just one more time. *sigh*

Much better video quality than a lot from that era, and the memories...this was our Epcot - Epcot Center. The greatest park ever!

This brings back memories of Xennial childhood Disney vacations. Preparing by sunbathing to get a base tan (At age 9... with my parent's approval... different times. ) while reading the cooler than cool Baby-Sitter's Club Special, where they go to Disney. Planning our route with my siblings on our Disney map placemats (kids don't seem to do placemats anymore, for whatever reason). Packing your coolest scrunchies and jam or Umbro shorts. Then the big day came, and you were off to listen to Tomorrow's Child, experience Captain EO, and watch Totally Minnie!

Edit because dang it, Xennials and Zillennials are very different autocorrect!
