It's time to remove the Dancing Waters from Epcot. Sure, it had a good run, but everybody has these things now. Knotts has one. Every hotel on the Vegas Strip has one. It's not original, it's not inventive. :mad: :mad: It doesn't exactly fit the Epcot spirt either, or the EPCOT spirit even.

Plus, now that SSE is returned to it's wandless glory, do we need another SSE view obstruction? Half of the park can't have clear sites of SSE because of the fountian. :cry:

Besides, is there anything else left from the original Future World? Every other thing at Future World has changed except the fountian. It feels like you are walking in a beautifully clean and re-imagined park until you get to the fountian. Nothing new here in 25 years, but it does get in the way of walking lines behind the hub as well.

Club Cool could really need a direct line from the Electric Umbrella. What happens if somebody has finished their pop and needs a drink while eating. It can be a 10 minute wait in line again. Why obstruct the clean shot over to Club Cool for the Watermelon Pop? :cool:

I think Epcot is goinging in the right direction (FINALLY!!!), and this would be another step towards park perfection. :sohappy:

I think the dancing fountain came along in the mid-90's, before that it was just kinda normal.

Furthermore, since we know all great Disney ideas come from DL anyways, I'd say the success of taking out the Dancing Waters show at the Disneyland Hotel would be a great arguement for doing the same here. This isn't Walt Disfree World or Disfreeland. People at Disney parks want their lines and payoffs for those lines. Public Entertainment??? That's just silly. Again, if people want a Las Vegas specticle they can go to LAS VEGAS.

I understand change is good, and neccessary to keep people coming back. But why pick on the fountain? The fountain is fine. There's nothing wrong with it and people still stop and watch in awe. It's still drawing crowds, so leave it the way it is

Well they at least need to fix that smell. :hurl: Does it use recycled water like they use at Bellagio?

From Vegastodayandtomorrow.com:

Grey Water Las Vegas is currently in the middle of a drought, yet there are seemingly wasteful water features like fountains, waterfalls, the four acre lake at Wynn Las Vegas and the ten acre, 27 million gallon lake and Fountains of Bellagio. Well, fret not, as the water used in these water features is "grey-water". Grey-water is the reclaimed water from the sinks, bathtubs and showers of the hotel which is then filtered, cleaned and chlorinated. OK I know what you're thinking, and the answer in NO not the toilets, that's called black-water. The black-water drains through a separate system to the city's sewers. :hurl:
