Thanks for the pics! I'm waiting for something amazing to happen outside TLS like some GREAT water feature besides the ocean rocks.

Cant wait for those PoTC pics!!

Thanks very much for the pictures. They're very nice, especially the pretty flowers!

I wonder if they're actually going to change behind the walls of The Living Seas.

I saw those performers at Epcot on my last trip this past November, but I didn't know they were called the Krito's. But I agree, they were amazing! We were walking towards them, and from afar, my best friend thought they were the Incredibles. Then we got closer and realized that they were performers doing amazing things that I could never even imagine doing.

Hope to hear more of your update :wave:

Sorry no pictures,i didnt mean to confuse you, didnt have my camera that day-but if you can find the guy in the front of the boat, he was waring a gray shirt w/ grumpy on it- i'm sure he would be glad to show them to you

, sorry though

further more on my update...

PoTC-in the beginning before you go down the drop, my mom and i noticed that the "cave" is a lot more narrow, so we thought some rockwork was put in, and i was possibly thinking an anamtronic?? then the back of the fort, seemed to have a new look, a big door was there, and i could tell it was new b/c there was a BIG BRIGHT -EXIT- sign that was different from all the other exit signs. Also the pirat that asks which girl you would like to the other pirat's was vary clear, and my mom with other's in the boat suggested that it sounded like Cpt. Barbosa!- also twords the end where the slaves are in the cellers seemed to have a new saying, from the movie-right now i cant quote it exactely, but i did know it when i herd it, also in the first celler there are burning lumber which i dont rember,oh and some of the pirates got some new outfits, and cleaner outfits. Other than that all the audio was Clear and you could hear things, i herd things i had never herd before!

Liberty Square River Boat- was getting painted when we went past it on the train(in the back)

Beauty and the Beast: Live on stage- i am glad to report that 4 for a dollar is sitll singing

it had been a while sense i saw it, and my mom was happy.

Narnia Set- Now, i have not seen the movie but i think that is the corniest thing i have ever seen. That's just my OPINION but my mom saw the movie and said she didnt get the point, who know's i guess i was just expecting more...

Turtle Talk w/ Crush- i liked it...again... and i had herd some lines that i have never herd before! it was hysterical!! too bad they cant get a bigger stage, or more that one!!

When we were on sorin, everything went right, until the end when someone left a bag where they were so we had a e-stop in the air, but it got on track.

Test Track- I know it went through a referb, but in the car i was in the audio was skipping when we went outside, sounded like someting was tapping(shaking) as well. But the screens were all working!!

Mission:Space- I rode it tuesday night before being informed of what happened to the woman earlier, but it seemed right to me, unless disney had not known about it before EMH Tuesday night.

and that's it for my update, any questions i can answer-i cant rember all of it right now, and i didnt ride all rides, but i'm glad to help!!
ask all you want!!

I would say, correct me if I am wrong, but I think the Kristos have been performing on and off at Epcot for the last 10 years or so. They don't do shows that frequently but when they do they are amazing. I don't like their new costumes though. They used to wear these silvery blue unitards that had hoods. They looked a lot more like aliens then....and that is what they are supposed to be...visitors from another planet.

Great photos. I hope they jazz up the exterior of TLS a little more. I wish I could be there for F and G Festival. It's one of my favorite events at WDW.

I was gonna say I was pretty sure I saw them 2 years ago haha...I guess that makes it even more special that they aren't out every day.

supapampam · Apr 18, 2006

I saw them at least 5 years ago, I agree that the old costumes looked better.

Thanks for the pictures

:king: cool pictures! i hope that the living seas will be ready by july when i go! hope that the people are still taking care of all the ocean creatures in side! im sure they are. is the living seas still running?

TimonRulz · Apr 18, 2006

Thanks

JEDIsney · Apr 18, 2006

Thanks for the update on the rides.

It's very interesting to hear about Pirates. I'm glad that a lot of changes have been noticed already.

Wow, I had no idea that the Krito's were around for so long.

Trizz41999 · Apr 18, 2006

Oh do I wish to be back there!!

thx, and they seem to be taking care of the creatures vary well! When my mom and i were there last week i beleive it was wednesday, Turtle talk was open but had problems and closed down, but we went back later and it was open.
Haha, the dolphin was doing laps around his cage, and the manatee's were chasing and playing with each other. Plus the big turtal was out and about A LOT more than i rember, even with the 40 min. divers' he seemed to be enjoying them(he came up for air and hid when i did the dive quest last year).
Also some land survayers were comming out with two "V.I.P's" when we were entering TLS and were let into the Front blocked off area, so i expect they were getting proper numbers down to figure out where they are going to put what ever they're doing.

Thanks for reminding me all this!(haha i think i have short term memory loss(dory))

Thanks for all the updates MickeyMan!

I need to see the pirate pics. Pirates was my sec fav ride and I hope they dont ruin. It was such a classic.

Skippy · Apr 18, 2006

ten years? I never saw them before last year!
the older costumes were better, in my opinion as well. These seem... oh I don't know... tighter... :lookaroun

Buford · Apr 21, 2006

Thank you for all these updates!!

I rode Pirates just the other day so I might be able to clarify a few things.......

(first, isn't it so dark in the opening grotto scene now? so cool

Other things I noticed - many of the pirates be having more fluid and different movements....same pirates....more action.... and the mangy mutt in the jail scene seems to be refurred to match the dog in the movie. I highly doubt it's a new animatronic as its movements are relatively the same.....anyway....)

Never thought of that but the Auctioneer's voice is still Paul Frees of Haunted Mansion fame

- also twords the end where the slaves are in the cellers seemed to have a new saying, from the movie-right now i cant quote it exactely, but i did know it when i herd it

From what I could tell the jail scene dialog is the same. Maybe it was a line the movie took from the ride! Like they did for "strike your colors, ya bloomin ________'roachers" and "Dead men tell no tales"

thanks again :wave:
