Epcot is definately my favorite of the parks, but the sense of "wonderment" that it used to evoke has diminished.
I know it's natural for the novelty to wear off with repeat visits, but I think it's something more than that.
I thought about this on the last trip and wondered if could just be as simple as the choice of area music. I vividly remember my first visit in 1989 upon entering Future World your were hit with this great area music, very grandios, building from crescendo to crescendo that just really gave you a sense of awe, that you were in a special place. When you approached Spaceship Earth the an instrumental rendition of "Tomorrow's Child" was booming thru the speakers.....it just seemed to really add to the sense of wonderment.
It just seems different now, It's still great music, just not as grandios as before.
