The new animatronics were having a rough day today:
All three animatronics were leaning over motionless, with only Panchito's foot stomping the ground. The ride ended closing not long after we got off; not sure if it ever reopened today.
EDIT: Sorry about the photo size, had to upload it from my iPhone.

A ride would be nice, but not at the expense of Impressions de France. Whatever they do on that side of World Showcase needs to not interfere with one of the most wonderful attractions among all the Disney parks.

I was wondering if that was by design.
Side note: anyone else notice that a good number of the audio segments in Journey Into Imagination don't work? I feel like I remember some of the lines being faint a few years back and now they are completely missing. I assume the speakers were failing and just weren't replaced but the effect is that it's really difficult to follow the "story".

I have a book about Epcot published in 1982. It describes "future" attractions for Germany (a boat ride), Japan (a show with AA and a revolving theater like Carousel of Progress) and the UK pavilion (a "music hall" style show). It also mentions future countries that were never added.

Hey now.. There's still a gun affect in Pirates!
And "mama don't whoop little Beuford I think you should shoot him instead.. Bang!" I'm sure it could be arranged c:

Yes it was supposed to be the same as the one in Tokyo Disneyland.. It was called "Meet the World."

Hey, don't talk smack about Gamera! Gamera is friend to children! Besides, have you SEEN the the trailer for the new movie? Oh, my sweet goodness. It makes me tingle in my nerdy parts.

That's how it originally played out in the Mickey Mouse Revue. They would disappear and reappear around the stage to the sound of gunshots being fired. I don't see that being practical in a dark ride setting, though. Not to mention the fact that they've replaced Jose's guns with toy guns instead.

Had to add that i am very pleased to finally see these figures installed.
It's been a long time it seems, but it's finally happened.
Seeing AAs taking the place of a giant video screen is a beautiful thing to see.
No, a wonderful thing.
A really wonderful thing.
Quite happy to see this.
The needle on the 'hope for Epcot' meter just twitched....
This is a good thing.

And given that it is not the 1970s, the sound of gunshots has long lost any "cuteness" factor. I think the toy guns are a tasteful upgrade.

BRAVO Imagineering!!!!!! Love this. I heard Jim Hill talk about this a while ago. I am glad you were finally able to get these guys put in. It is amazing.
