If you still know the thread, please link it. I'd love to read what was known and whether it was an accurate leak or a good guess.

Not disagreeing with you Re: Disney's outlook on Epcot. But respectfully since this is a forum to discuss Disney World I do think there is a point to discuss whether something fits or not. Especially because Disney continually tries to justify their decisions with mental gymnastics. Peter Quinn went to Epcot once, therefor this fits. As long as Disney tries to make excuses we can continue to debate whether those excuses are good enough. While I recognize that it will have no outcome on the result, I still think discussion of the thematic appropriateness of something is precisely what these forums partially are built for.

Yes, I agree it's worth discussing, but let's not be shocked when something doesn't fit the old Epcot.

"Future World" as we knew it - is gone. Considering the sad state of affairs it has been for a very, very long time now... What they're putting in its place won't have any need for "keeping it current" which ultimately killed FW. I dare say I like it. All these landscape features ("attractions") are on the right side of the park, tie into The Land and The Living Seas pavilions and the already organic pathways. Plus they'll offer a lovely, relaxing and SHADED place to be.

I'm down. Let's do this.

'Moana who?' - kids will say in 7 years.

Figment who?

Pandora who?

Mr. Toad who?

Incredibles who?

This is like debating the fiber optic walkway.

It’s a casual walk through on your way from one place to another. Creative, attractive, maybe slightly cooling(?)

Not hard to ditch or retheme to Finding Nemo’s Dad IV: Revenge Of The Tadpole Universe in 20 years.

Not everything is vital or dire. Zero is permanent.

Figment who? Because that’s a character people don’t know about before visiting WDW. So if you don’t know Moana, it can still work or catch on. “Generic island girl” does not make it better. And yes, some folks want to see Moana in the parks, and we all share the same parks.

Pandora who? Because the land works whether you know the IP or not.

Mr. Toad who? Because “original” stuff doesn’t last forever, either.

And Incredibles who? Because I just don’t care to know.

But if they stuck an Incredibles thing somewhere that kinda made sense, fine by me.

And this Moana thing is fine by me.

There’s just as little critical thought involved in trashing all IP’s as supporting all IP’s.

A little leeway for the Disney IP’s at WDW, ok?
