Epcot Money Grab

Odd. For some reason I thought it was Sunday through Thursday lol... although the weekends makes much more sense. Maybe this will make my EMH experience meandering through WS that much better, if some of the crowd is lessened through people having ADR's in the lounges.

ETA: although, conversely, I wonder if the ADR's will be as popular on nights when WS is open late for EMH? Hmm...

This comment was a wise one....and maybe you remember WS staying open until 11pm but you failed to remember that they were EMH you were there for.
Sorry. My mistake.

June 1990. No EMH. No E Ride Night.

Every guest could stay in Epcot until 11pm. Each night.

MGM and MK were open until Midnight. Every night. For everyone.

Even towards the end of August closings for all parks were 10-11pm. Every night. For all guests.

So no 'failure to remember' as you put it. Just the sorry facts.

EPCOT CENTER, both WS and FW open 9-11. Every day. No EMH, no E-nights, no hardticketed events, no 35 bucks to enjoy the park you just paid $94 for.

Oh no, meet and greets taking place all those many years ago! Actually, maybe they should do that again @ Odyssey, at least do something in there. Anyone have film or pics of the Skyleidoscope? Have never seen that.

I remember there would be a lot more random character meetings back in the day. In recent years the only time I seem to see that happen is at DHS, a lot of times there will be random characters like the Queen of Hearts just roaming about the NY street scene, it's great.

Think for yourselfer
They should move this to DTD which is already geared more towards bar/restaurant/adult entertainment. Disney was built on family recreation and this ain't it.

You might be on to something. Why stop there though? Why doesn't Disney build an entertainment complex for adults at DTD? They could even make it an island to keep it seperate from the kiddos. Put up a couple gates, charge a hefty but reasonable cover that allows access to any number of unique "adult only" experiences.

I'd be absolutely fine with that. I'm not talking "adult entertainment" like strip clubs but alcohol and entertainment geared towards 21+ age brackets (bars, comedy club, boot-scootin', whatever). My opinion is that all of this needs taken out of the 4 WDW parks that are supposed to be family oriented. When I was there I had two feelings; 1.)Irritated that my young kids were subjected to this at what was intended to be a family vacation spot and 2.) Embarrassment for Disney that they've sunk that far just in the name of profits that they're willing to promote spring break behavior in their parks.

I really miss Pleasure Island :cry:

Yea Communicore at like 10:30 and the Energy Exchange was awesome, there were times where you feel like you are the only one there. I remember riding on UoE just by ourselves.
