Guardians of the Galaxy coming to Energy Pavilion at Epcot

[rle4lunch]

The physical stuff? Yeah. The episodes on VHX are good, though. I'd never seen Final Justice before, now I can watch whenever I want. Also cool that the RiffTrax guys kicked in a few freebies on their site, especially considering how there was a bit of grumbling when it started....

ya, I got the episodes. still waiting for the other stuff. I only did $50 though, so not much is coming anyway. Saw Final Justice a couple years ago, gotta love some Joe Don Baker. Fun fact, Joe Don Baker said that if he ever met the cast of MST3K, he'd kick their a$$es because of what they did with Mitchell (one of my top 10 faves).

I think it was the episode guide where one of the writers said, "Bring it." "He'll see us at an entertainment industry party, get mad, take a swing, miss, spill his cocktail on his rented date, then fall through the hors d'oeurves table."

"Bring it."

Go ahead on.

You could always ignore news and rumour and stay in general discussion.

u could also ignore when people who dont know any better come at u!

 

[Matt_Black]

Go ahead on.

... Are YOU Joe Don Baker?

 

[NovaCiteJourneys]

The best pavilion? Please.

And ToT is now supposed to be a "classic". How standards have fallen. Good to know new management has plans. The more the better.

It is far from the best pavilion, but it it the best at sticking to the EPCOT Center theme. It had it's comical aspects after the refurb too, it's not alone though because Cranium Command was like that too.

It and The Land (specifically the boat ride) are really the last holdouts of the "old Epcot", besides Spaceship Earth. Although personally I always thought the original pre-show was the single coolest thing about UoE

Heart poundin'!
Veins cloggin'!
Keep your eyes on that SAMMICH!
MITCHELL!

It's funny how bad Epcot is now. We have 3 pavilions with no audio animatronics now. (The Festival Center, (Unless you count Buzzy and that other guy's corpse) Mission: Space, and Test Track. I'm not sure about The Seas with Nemo and Friends as far as animatronics go, but EPCOT is really, truly dead.

Only the "mine" birds outside and a few seashells inside for Nemo and Friends?

Because of its articulated arm mount, Nemo's anglerfish is arguably the most advanced animatronic in all of EPCOT.
...outside of the fancy new stuff in Frozen, that is.

So i've been reading through the last ten pages or so of this thread and I'm still rather confused... what is the current status of this project?

Unconfirmed rumor.

I'm told it's still a go. Others are told differently. I'd love to be wrong.

You'd love to be wrong? But..you sounded optimistic, no? Optimistic, that is, about what will become of the Park Formerly Known As EPCOT Center?

It'll certainly be better than what is there today.

Given a choice I'd rather go with the previous refurb plan before this came along. A storyline focussed on the Big Bang and the creation of the Earth.

Wouldn't the other option just be ToT? I quite frankly really hope you're right.

That sounds somewhat fun. I can see how that would play out.

Although EPCOT doesn't need an imposed backstory. It has a story, and it just needs to be understood, articulated and be the driver of the park.

I'd agree best case scenario is a brand new attraction in DHS and the refurb for energy. However given the choice of ruining TOT or Energy i'd have to say save TOT.
