Wow that is pretty much EPCOT re-visioned. That 1974 Stark World Exposition video definitely makes the fictional Howard Stark out to be a Walt Disney archetype. I had always heard Howard Stark was supposed to be like Howard Hughes but I think any of those visionaries from that era is the spirit they were going for.
I have a new desktop wallpaper. Thanks.

does anyone, besides me, think that this EPCOT-Iron Man 2 thing is due to Disney having having part ownership of marvel

That would definitely be interesting to find out, because the Stark Expo concept art looks to me to be identical to other Disney Concept Art I've saw. Westcot anyone? Maybe the Disney Artists chipped in to give it that realistic touch.
Now if TDO would chip in and say.. hey... Let's build the inverted monorail and the Stark Industries Pavilion..... :lookaroun

No more characters in EC but maybe Innoventions can be rethemed with a Stark theme.

I thought the same, but isn't the deal way too recent for that? I mean, when the movie was being filmed and planned had that deal already been done?

That is pretty awesome. Come on, Imagineers! Make Epcot look like THAT.

Just saw Iron Man 2. **spoilers to follow**.
Much of what's been said on this thread was spot on. Howard Stark is Walt made over and the Stark Expo is NY World's Fair/E.P.C.O.T. re-visioned. The closing credits of the movie have a song that's very "Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow"-like. The whole Disney connection put a smile on my face.

Yea, I posted a thread on this last week. If you stayed til' the end, I forgot the song name but that certain song was written by Robert Sherman.
When Howard was talking I was like "DISNEYLAND! DISNEYLAND!" (of course, I thought this in my head)

I only looked that 1 pic,I want to see what I an spot!
It looks very EPCOT. Buildings,monorail,all of it! I'd love to see FW get a huge facade and asthetics upgrade to have this look. Very futuristic.

An Iron Man AA would be sweet.

Is that the same music that plays when you go to the Stark Expo website? Because that sounds SO much like "Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow"! It really made me smile when I heard it.

An AA? Sure, but not a rethemeing of Innoventions to include Stark Industries. Maybe a re-themeing of FW to be inspired by the Stark Expo, but if there is a Stark sign or anything, I would not enjoy that :-/, I really don't want Marvel to go in the parks that AREN'T DHS, they only sound fit there.

Richard Sherman actually wrote the song that's being referenced.
