YUCK!!
I can just see it now! Gone are the glass pyramids replaced by a tacky plywood billboard akin to the rockn'rollercoaster in Disney Studios paris, but depicting the characters of P and F! As you enter you're bombarded with headache-causing color clashes and crudely drawn images of the characters with those icky disney channel colors. The image works replaced with yet ANOTHER gift shop selling nothing you cant find in any disney store.The ride is a cornball expirience that will leave parents wanting to jump off halfway through and fit into the park just as well as the hastily done seas with nemo. It will utilize a series of scenes (all just a bunch of screens in darkened rooms. no animatronics) and end abruptly without a finale. The building will now resemble a cross between a wal mart and a burger king but painted silver and black and easily obscured by trees and whatever horrible idea they have in store for the land some vekoma boomerang or something. lol.
EPCOT FANGIRL RANT ALERT *hides behind hair*
But seriously why are they so mean to Epcot?
It's gone from a park that had something for everyone young and old to six flags over orlando for 12 year old boys with a couple of princess restaurant clones tossed in for the girls.
RIP Horizons RIP World Of Motion RIP Original Universe of Energy RIP Kitchen Cabaret RIP Food Rocks RIP Body Wars RIP Cranium Command RIP Wonders of Life RIP Rio Del Tiempo RIP Journey into Imagination RIP Magic Journeys RIP Imageworks RIP pavillions that let you walk around and discover things RIP fountain in the Land. RIP old Spaceship Earth (what does that leave....maelstrom, livin' with the land, and American Adventure please don't take my maelstrom away!)
Imagine if the Magic Kingdom was treated this way! Haunted mansion replaced with national treasure the ride! and cut in half to make room for national treasure THE GIFTSHOP! while thunder mountain sits abandoned for 5 years sometimes used as a festival grounds for stamp collectors!
I may be jaded because I hate new disney channel type stuff and i never cared for phinneas and ferb, i see the jokes coming every time its more nickelodeon than disney. But epcot was perfect before everything was in such a good balance. Its sad to see it become a shadow of itself, and its not just because of nostalgia. I just remember rides were more involved back then they werent mostly dark rooms with like a tv set and a plywood sign. Nor were they simulators of simulators or roads that went into backstage areas. They were all encompassing multi-sensory experiences where magic could be found unannounced in every corner, it wasn't spoonfed. every pavillion had a unique feel to it UofE was low and heavy with massive vehicles, wonders of life felt like you were floating in a body, horizons was a starport, World of motion was a sleek tribute to worlds fairs, The land a beautiful natural but indoor garden world, the seas deep below the waves, spaceship earth, compact but yet not at all, and the imagination pavillion, where you felt like you were floating on clouds. The only one i still enjoy is the land. Test track's not bad after the update but still.
RANT OVER
I think this isn't a good idea for the pavillion and its surely an idea that will become a walk on by at most 2020 if not sooner (assuming it opened in 2015). It'd become a pavillion without a theme, just a big ride with more show space than needed. I'm not adverse to phinneas and ferb opening elsewhere like Hollywood Studios or DCA but this is just too random for this park. the pavillions would be themed as the land, talking fish, Human communication, Energy, *cricket* (hello wol wake up!), Space, cars, and a television cartoon? whaaaaaaaatttt?? lol
I feel like my favorite park will switch from Epcot to Hollywood studios after Starwars land opens. It'll look more epcot than epcot does, as will Avatarland in AK.
sorry for the dismal first post, I'm not really a negative person lol. I just saw this first and nearly had a heart attack. as it is im a bit queasy from the thought I should liedown My former favorite ride replaced by my least favorite disney thing....wow. Talk about salt in the wound! lol
