But it's NOT Japan! It's San Fransokyo!
(Which, of course, just brings the "Is Arendelle Norway?/Is Agrabah Morocco?" discussion again, but this time...let's just assume it's already been made, and move on. Saves time, that way.)



Y'know, just in the last week, I've seen a dozen posters say "Let's put a Godzilla/Mt. Fuji bullet train in Japan", after I'd already told the story about how Disney actually did have concept-art plans to put one in when Epcot was first being built, and Toho licensing put a quick stop to that.
Yeah, I know, probably got subconsciously stuck in your head, but look....Just FORGET I ever mentioned it, okay? I thought I was just telling old park-trivia anecdotes--Sheesh!

except godzilla is a big cultural thing of Japan.
Just like "Journey to the west" is for china.
Id say Godzilla would fit in japan more than Frozen to Norway.

So anyone want to take bets on how many RPMs Walt is reaching in his grave now?
I'm pretty sure Walt is already at TURBO speed, more RPMS and he will create blackhole levels of attraction and cause a planetary wide devastating event.

This is especially true if you ignore the fact that Frozen takes place in what is now Norway.

Guys, for the sake of discussion let's say an owl came by and told me that Norway will remain as-is and that the Frozen ride is just going to be Fiesta Tour'd into Norway.
Still a horrible idea.

Also, for the sake of discussion, let's say the same owl has also advised that I have real, honest to god, IMAGINEERS reading my posts!
Eh...happens all the time.;)

Imagineers are reading this?!?! In that case, STOP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND LEAVE MAELSTROM ALONE OR YOU SHALL FEEL THE WRATH OF ODIN!!!!!!!!! Sorry, I just had to get that out.

Yes, I'm sure they're both reading this and getting ready to disobey the park executives who told them to do this.

Yeah, I've still got this strange sense that they're not what they seem, though... :cautious:

Really? Y'know, up till now, I never got that impression, you just didn't seem like the type. :rolleyes:

(Besides, never listen to owls, he's just handing you Universal lines. Always listen to ducks...er, geese!)

If they do this on the cheap, I think the fans will be upset. It's great to strike while the iron is hot, but Frozen deserves more than a few AA's or movie screens in an outdated ride. Really hope this is not true and that they spend the money to do this right.

Well, if that's what they are up to it was a huge backfire. Instead of getting people hyped up for Disney they incited a riot complete with "virtual" pitch forks. I know they say no publicity is bad publicity, but this could not have been the reaction they expected.
Didn't say it worked ;)

And this is more hoping against hope that this was just a planted rumor and not true.

But it is about time people are finally waking up and realizing how poor management is and how tourists are truly viewed in WDW.

If you thought Norway was packed with the meet n greet lines just wait till a ride opens. I hope they have plans for better guest flow.
At least it would help out spread out lines from Test Track and Soarin although I rather not see a Frozen ride in Norway.

Does it even matter if I am wrong about this? You have been a complete psychotic jerk to me over two days with absolutely no justification in the least. My writing style is harsh in tone, I am a harsh judge of the world. It does not take much effort for me to come off like a jerk. I make no apologies for this. I am what I am.

But, you have spent tremendous effort these past two days on being a complete jerk. More so, your fixation on me over this time raises rather concerning questions about why you are actually posting on this forum. I don't understand the desperation and need to attack ME. It seems like you are fighting to keep your job. I am not your boss. I am just some random bloke on the internet. But you sure seem interested in me.

Going forward I will no longer afford the courtesy and respect of conversing with you as if you are a mature adult. In fact, I will not be having any contact with you at all. Whatever your deeply personal agenda and fixation with me is, I want nothing of it.

Good luck in life, strange WDWMagic board person. You sure seem like you're going to need it.

Certain members that Epcot is getting nothing new for the forseeable future. Now Epcot is rumored to get new attractions in 2015 and 2016, and people complain they don't fit the theme of Epcot from 1982.

Go figure.

His posts are just proof that 74 is right... There is a mental disorder in the Disney fan community... Just put that dolt on ignore.

I'm waiting for the next, much-shorter edition of this book.

"We've redesigned Epcot to be the Overflow Park for Magic Kingdom! The End."

But, but, but... this fellow said an EPCOT is all about the 21st Century. Being HERE and such...

Um...yes?
Just HOW wrong, how loudly, how often, how stubbornly, and how narcissistic and self-franchisingly, can be debated by the rest of us at leisure, but let's just grasp it from the basics, start with Wrong, and go from there.

There's no need for us to go widespread, take recriminations and shame all the poor innocent victims whose dark sides you tried to seduce, and lead in to willingly listen to their fears and grudges over how "cheaply" they thought Epcot was being managed, how "greedy" you thought the company would be over the movie, or how Epcot "needed" another coaster or whichever.
You wanted the spotlight, and when it was shining on you, after it was all over, you found your fly was open in front of everyone. Hey, don't worry, happens to all of us. Usually in fourth grade. Still have nightmares about it all the time.
