[dandaman]

Down, and up with originality! :sohappy:

 

[SirGoofy]

I honestly don't care. It looks fine with or without the wand.

 

[Cynderella]

I think it looks fine w/ the wand.

Wand

I like the wand, ive never been to Epcot before the wand was there, but I Like the way it looks, its like a magic wand casting a spell over Epcot!, however the support tower on the left side is Horrific!

 

[CAPTAIN HOOK]

I think the wand looks good BUT its been there long enough and its time to pull it down

 

[joel_maxwell]

it would be against the rules to really tell what i think about the wand. i would have to wash my mouth out with soap...... actually wash my fingers.

 

[dandaman]

^ :lol:

 

[Connor002]

up or down, it dosen't make much difference to me

 

[General Grizz]

It's OK now, have it down by 2007. That's my opinion at least.

 

[Huge Dreamer]

Like I have said before sell tickets to watch it be taken down. It would be a great event to start of Epoct's 25th. Thats just my thoughts on it and I don't think it is going any where soon but I'm hoping I'm wrong.

 

[Rototom]

Down goes the wand......

Down as fast as possible.

I may be wrong but my guess is most people voting for it to stay were never there before it was up.

 

[PeeplMoovr]

I'm amazed that so many people actually like that thing.

I be curious to see if younger people like it more than older people.

Oh - I voted for blow it up, then crush it into little pieces and sink it to the bottom of the deepest part of the ocean.

 

[SpenceMan01]

Give it the 'ol heave-ho. And take that damn Hat from MGM too. Maybe they can get a bulk discount at the trash yard! :lol:

Seriously though, if it's still there for EPCOT's 25th, I will be up in arms!

Grizz: Congrats on 13k posts!

My two cents: For nearly 20 years, Spaceship Earth was unadorned with any type of identification and, I dare say, none was needed--everyone knew that it was the quintessential symbol of EPCOT. Then in late 1998 or early 1999, up went the structure wrapping around the ball and reading, "2000," in preparation for Disney's millenial celebration. I thought, "Well, okay, if you really need to draw attention to the coming Y2K thing, that's fine." But after all the celebrating, the sign was changed to be what it is now.

In truth, I really don't care one way or the other, but I do have a preference: take it down, for two reasons: first, if you're looking at it, you already know where you are, so the sign is necessary. Second, Mickey's arm and hand should not be there: EPCOT was Walt Disney's dream, independent, I think, of Mickey and the world Walt created around him. That ball, unadorned, reminds all of us, as it should, of the genius and vision of the man whose life was far too short, and who gave us so much of what we love and enjoy.

Hmmm, I've been pondering about the wand for a little while, and I think I know of a reason why it is still up. I'm guessing they're gonna put 25th or something on it when Epcot's anniversary rolls around. I'm probably wrong, but it's just a thought...

 

[CaptainMichael]

I'd like it down but enough to do it myself. I may wind up breaking SE. Let the professionals take care of it!
