EPCOT Journey of Water featuring Moana coming to Epcot

I have no clue why people are so worked up about a netting fence to keep guests off the rocks. There are fences all over the property for guest safety.

Ah, the good ol' days.

The jumping fountains have been there for over 40 years and even the lawyers can't force EPCOT to put up fences.

Guests of yesteryear are much different from guests today, who are much more cavalier. Additionally, there's likely a height issue at play; that ledge may be small enough to be grandfathered into any "fencing policy" in that they may have enacted in the past. It's still something that, if a CM saw it, would tell you to knock it off.

All said though, you've made your opinion on the attraction exceedingly clear; you don't like it. That's fine to not like things. However, being upset that fencing is up for guest safety is such an odd nit to pick. If the fence wasn't there, children would absolutely climb on those rocks, either risking hurting themselves or damaging the attraction.

You can drill back through the posts. All I said is that this netting reminded me of chain link fence.

If they wanted to spend the money, they could have come up with a more elegant solution.

They probably blew the budget on the water treatment plant.

I sincerely hope they give a "behind the water" tour of the water treatment plant.

I sincerely hope that whatever happens on this trail warrants an expression of this much joy:

Mid yawns photograph well.

The bigger issues to be than tje fence, although lazy considering the aesthetic is to be an issue of pay to play Magic Band/forced interactivity.
The best interactivity is when it is not forced. This seems more akin to how Volcano Bay does Tapu Tapu, which is forced and works as a bonus, but does not say it is an attraction itself.

Are you actually going to be able to cool off with this walk through or is it just going to be tossing water at some rocks and some mini water falls? The ground looks dry in the promo shot.

A sign currently at the beginning of the walk-thru implies a wet path and a dry path. So... yes. Maybe. We don't have granular detail yet of each of the walk-thru's features.

Does anyone know how much it costs for Moana Water Adventure? I am thinking that Disney OVER SPENT! on a static attraction that won't hold up to all the hype! Then, they will put up more construction walls and build something that guests will have to pay for, thus adding to their profits!
And if the area is in testing phase, why is it taking 3-4 months to open the area!?
