- Change Soarin' to flying over the world and move it to World Showcase even though that will be very hard. That way in world showcase you can fly the world.
- Turn Journey Into Imagination into an LPS System dark ride with a new storyline. Change the Captain EO theater into a new attraction that's similar to the game, Scribblenauts, where you say something and they draw it on screen in a second and it'll have a story.
- Re-theme "The Land" to Wall-E. Add a Wall-E ride to "the land" replacing the former Soarin'.
- Take out Nemo from the Seas and make a dark ride on an original property (ala Haunted Mansion) themed underwater where you are asked to discover the depths of the ocean.
- Refurb Mission Space
Lots of criticism going to come from this. Tell me what you think
(I am changing my mind and the Wall-E attraction will be in Epcot NOT Pixar Place)

I would:
- Add Brazil pavilion with a coaster through the jungle with singing parrots (not my idea)
- I would add a massive Dr. Who e-ticket in the UK to bring in all the crowds, assuming Disney gets the rights.
- Add Bullet Train attraction to Japan
- Relocate Hall of Preisdents to "The American Adventure", and an omnimover themed to a bus trip through the nation where you go through famous american cities (Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Chicago, Washington D.C., etc.)
- Update Maelstrom

I'm fine with a ride through our history but I feel that it's kinda like SSE but just America, but we need something like GMR for America maybe going through famous cities?
I feel Ratatouille is more for DHS because most people don't want to put too many characters into World Showcase . Wall-E is definitely Epcot though

NO PIXAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! anywhere in epcot. Sorry lol...just my opinion. even wall-e is a nono in my book. Characters stay away. Its the way I also feel in Animal Kingdom. Minimal characters. But in animal Kingdom if you wanted a land devoted to them that is fine. But epcot Cannot be touched

As for me here is my list of Must-Dos:
FutureWorld:
-Change ending of Spaceship Earth( I like the old ending better)
-Get rid of all Pixar in epcot
-New sea ride in the Seas (name change back to the Living seas). The ride would go through different ocean enviorments like coral reefs, the dark depths and trenches and even the shoreline
-New Pavillion taking over WOL. It would be an environment and Ecosystem Idea I have
-TT is awesome now...love it. Much more futuristic
-Mission Space Is fine for now But need another smaller attraction inside(think traditional epcot ride style)
-UOE update. I like Ellen very much. Disney fans seem to hate her but A lot of the world loves her so Ido not know why people complain about her.
-The land needs new video for circle of life.

i understand haha. i just thought that wall-e was acceptable due to similar themes. what about dr. who in UK?

NOW THIS I WOULD BE OK WITH!!!....an action adventure would be fine. But epcot is not about the kids movies in my opinion. As long as dr. who is tasteful and not a mish mosh of all the characters it would be cool.
I also agree brazil would be cool. I also think scotland or Ireland would be amazing.

My EPCOT re-model consist of separating all the pavilions into the geographical areas so : Asia , South America , North America , Europe , Africa , and the Middle East. I also would want to greatly update future world and make it more about discovery and American free enterprise. Kinda like a showcase of America.

Removing Future World won't be kind in the eyes of most people

For me, in Future World, I would revise the Imagination pavilion, ride and all, as seen in this website here, E82: http://www.epcotlegacy.com/historic...-combine-a-history-of-imagination-part-4.html. Scroll down to where it says "BEYOND INFINITE - Tomorrow's Imagination". This basically calls for the Imagination ride to become something called Journey Into Imagination - The Quest For Dreamfinder. The Image Works would be reshuffled around the pavilion. And as if that wasn't enough, Captain EO would be replaced by a digitally-remastered version of an old classic, Magic Journeys.
Over in The Land pavilion, meanwhile, the California movie of Soarin' would be replaced by another for another state, namely Florida. It would something like this film down below:
The only alteration I would make is to add the Magic Kingdom to the end of the ride, like how it ends at Disneyland in the California version.
Meanwhile, similar to the Listen To the Land boat ride, the Living With the Land boat ride will now have a theme song. In fact, it will be the same song as usual, except the song won't be "Let's listen to the land we all love...". Instead, it will now be "We're living with the land we all love...". Here's the original song below for a reference:
As for The Living Seas, I would just simply reduce (but not outright eliminate) the references to Nemo in the pavilion. That's what I'd do with the western end of Future World. Next time, I'll get to the eastern end.

I don't understand the hate for Nemo in the seas. I probably wouldn't have put him there but now that he's there, I think it's a great way to introduce kids into the real ocean. The transition is perfect. A Nemo Ride, that leads into a Nemo Play area, that leads into an area where you can see the REAL versions of fish from finding nemo that leads into A REAL coral reef exhibit, with Dolphins, Green Sea Turtles, Sharks, And the manatees as well.
Have you been on New Test Track? It's AWESOME! Old Test Track had so much potential but it never quite got there, new one isn't perfect, but it's a huge improvement and it's the kind of thing that I think fits the Future World Vibe.
What is there to update with Mission Space?
NO. NO. NO. NO. Sure.
I'm all for more pavillions but not for more rides. World showcase isn't about rides, especially a roller coaster. Roller Coasters don't belong in EPCOT, that's not what EPCOT is.
Same reasoning for Dr. Who, the American audiance is not nearly as large as most whovians think it is. It's large, but not a recognizable enough name for EPCOT I think. Plus World Showcase takes place here and now in our world. Taking you to a place of Science Fiction is totally off message.
Why would you want to replace the American Adventure? It is truly spectacular! And I don't see how a dark ride through famous cities would work either, people travel to Disney from all over, you don't think they've seen at least some of the rest of america? I'd rather take them to places they've never been before. It seems like we should have learned this lesson from Disney's California Adventure, no one went there because the real California was right outside the gates.
On an unrelated note, in reference to Wall-E. I don't have a problem with Characters (I really enjoy them in point of fact) but how would adding Wall-E to the land be any different then adding Nemo to the seas, which you appear to be a proponent of removing?
NOOOO! I love my Universe of Energy! It's the most well-written attraction in All of Walt Disney World. Update the Dinosaur scene to give more action and more life-like animatronics, but no script or video changes!
I'm not sure what this would accomplish? Are you talking about rearranging the pavillions? That seems like a lot of unnecessary money spent.
--------------------
Anyway, I'm done being negative. In my opinion with EPCOT, the only thing that DESPERATELY needs updating is Imagination. I would love for a wonderful new Family dark ride to be built there, and soon! After that It would be nice for another E-Ticket to replace Wonders of Life, but that could easily be way down the line. The other parks have so much more to worry about than EPCOT.

I have ridden the new test track. I think they should make mission space that if you don't hit the buttons, you will fail and die!
take it easy tiger! how about just alter the ending of your mission and guests are given a total score?
