First, could you please use some better punctuation? You just have a big jumble of sentences that's very hard to read, thanks.murdock said:
Second, are you comparing Epcot to how it used to be, and you think it's lost its old spirit; or are you simply saying that you never enjoyed it at all?

Epcot is my favorite Park... mainly for it's leisurely atmosphere: strolling around, eating, shopping. Extremely nostalgic to me.

As a kid I was a huge fan of Epcot...it was my favorite park...then AK came along and Epcot was kind of falling apart so slowly AK became my favorite park...but I stilled loved Epcot...then M:S and Soarin' came along and were great additions but....AK is still number one for me...
For me, The Studios is the least Disney-like park....*shrug*

When I was a kid, EPCOT was my least favorite park. I hated having to take time away from the MK to go and "learn". The older I get, the more Epot is becoming my favorite park.

I'm sure you'll get a plethora of responses...however, there was a "Why don't people like Epcot?" Thread, just over a week ago. You can check out some responses there.
I think Epcot is amazing, as is MGM and MK. I'm still trying to get on board with AK...with Epcot, you've got the future, what man will aspire to be, etc. With MK, well, the Magic is obvious. At MGM, it's all movie/Hollywood magic. At AK, I'm still trying to figure out what the Magic is...

Reasons to love EPCOT:
1: So relaxed. Pick your favorite country of the World Showcase, and sit on a bench around 8:45, 15 minutes before the night time finale begins. Compare that to 15 minutes before Wishes on Main Street in the Magic Kingdom.
2: Two different parks: It's quite possible to spend an entire day in either Future World or World Showcase, if you are truly committed to seeing everything in each half of the park.
3: The Restaurants. Between the international restaurants, along with the great atmosphere of the Coral Reef, and you have the best theme park restaurants on property.
4: Fun to work there. I've worked at the Magic Kingdom, Disney-MGM Studios, and EPCOT. It's such a laid back park, which makes it an enjoyable workplace.
5: Drinking around the world: This is pretty self explanatory. In EPCOT, when you walk into a building that says "Pub" above the door, you're greeted with a nice cold Strongbow. In the Magic Kingdom, when you walk into a building that says "Tavern" above it, you're greeted by Minnie Mouse wearing colonial garb:xmas: . End of argument

Epcot has a different pace to it. As I get older, I appreciate it more

Epcot is my fave park.When I started to realize how much I loved Disney and become" Disney born again" it was around 1985 three years after Epcot opened and my grandparents knew I loved Disney and got me this AAA Epcot information guide with conception drawings and I made my entire room a tribute to Epcot.I was only 15 then and Epcot seemed soooo futureristic and Disney mixed together on one.

I hate to sound like a broken record, but EPCOT is by far my favorite park!
There is something about being able to travel around the globe, explore the future, and experience the world we live in all in one day!
Plus it is the only place that I have ever heard the word "twins" (when they opened my oyster in Japan) and not passed out!!!

Definetly one of my favorite things to do there! Actually I love everything about EPCOT. I usually spend at least 2 full days there and an evening of another on a 5 day trip. And I usually feel like I still didn't have enough time to enjoy everything.

I LOVE EPCOT! I can't choose between Epcot and MK, however.
But honestly...I'm not very fond of AK.
To each his own.

well i guess you all love epcot then i seem to have offended a few people but its just a personnal thing. it would not be good for us all to like the same thing and i aplogise to the member who said my punctuation was bad i thought the question was about epcot not a punctuation exam!

My family and close friends all agree that it's our favorite park.
Great Food,
Imported Beer and other good drinks,
fun,
no tacky themes,
some thrills,
more adult crowd,
relaxation,
international girls,
SSE,
beautiful architecture,
accents,
stereotypical costuming (aka conversation starters with the international girls)
.......... the list goes on and on

EPCOT is my 2nd favorite park after Magic Kingdom. Its a tradition in our family right when we get there on the first day, we go straight to Epcot anbd spend the whole day there. Theres so much to do...you just have to take the time out to see whats really there.
When i was a kid, it was my least favorite park. Back then it was more designed to educate the guests, rather than the thrills. And with the top technology today they are adding more thrills and more people are attracted to the park. Thats why i love it so much now, its not just thrills but the cultures of the countries, and the classic attractions like SSE. Other than that Epcot really is a great park.
