With that in mind, while the first two rule out consideration of a ToN/ToD like parade, it would be nice to see the promenade de-cluttered regardelss of a new parade. It really has gotten terrible in recent years with all the food/merchandise structures. :fork:
Man o man, there was no theme park atmosphere EVER like EPCOT 2000. I was there 3/2000 for ToN in my pre-fanboy days
No offense pioner- but every thread title so far you've posted has a fairly large spelling or grammar error.
I don't think it has a chance- I'd like to see a brand new parade myself.

Oh me too, me too. Epcot during that time was incredible. I loved ToN. Alot. I loved sitting in Morocco, right across from one of the backstage gates. We would watch one section of the parade come out, then watch the next segment coming and then exit through that gate. Awesomness.
I, however, hated ToD. I still watched, because things I loved about the original were still there, but other things really bugged me. Those new fairy characters were really annoying (though the Dreamcatcher float was kind of cool), and I hated the additions to the soundtrack... all the kids saying, "My dream is... " "My dream is..."
But the thing that irritated me the most was something I'm sure most people wouldn't notice. I always loved the bit of "Celebrate the Future Hand in Hand" that was in ToD. I loved how it fit into the music. I completely understood why they edited it out for ToD... I mean, it wasn't the Millenium Celebration anymore. But what bugged me was that it wasn't edited well at all. You could still hear the first two notes of "Celebrate..." before it crudely jumped to the next section... Ugh. It grated on my nerves every time!
Anyway, I'm glad they still play the original score for ToN after RoE, and that you can see footage of the puppets on the Earth Barge during the show.

I saw ToN twice during my first and second trips in 11/99 and 6/01 respectively but I cannot count the amount of times I have listened to the music. Even without the physical parade the music still plays after IllumiNations and that is good enough for me.Man o man, there was no theme park atmosphere EVER like EPCOT 2000.

According to the back-story the Sage of Time can only walk the Earth every thousand years or 999 in case they need him to stay for another 9 months..:animwink:
