Maybe this is the long awaited Frozen-ization of Norway! That is great! Make it like a Harry Potter like land or something grand like that!

Please save futureworld. Anything has got to be better then forgotten part of EPCOT. I just cant believe they can not get any sponsors for these attractions. I mean are there no more forward looking companies out there that would like to showcase there companies product.

I was thinking about this as well..is the little mermaid or mine train sponsored?

Better start construction now if it's anything more than a layover of an existing space.
I'm gonna guess either a replacement for Universe of Energy or the Imagination Pavilion and/or Captain EO.
It's been rumored that Disney was trying to get Ellen for something theme parks related alongside her work for the upcoming Finding Dory. I supposed it's possible they could do something in The Seas, but my money would be on one of the other two I mentioned.

Based on the description linked in one of the above pages:
Next-gen larger-than-life interactive spectacle.
Premiere planned for late 2015 or early 2016.
I somehow read that as a show of some sort. Maybe the Captain EO theater is a good guess?

Yes that clearly makes sense in a section that fit's the theme of TOMMOROWLAND....
Same could be said about the current Speedway.
All they'd have to do would be redraw the map as to what is Tomorrowland and what is Fantasyland.
Not saying it's a good idea, I'd rather them blow up the Speedway and make room for something else, or at least replace the cars with electric/fuel cell cars and make it back to "Tomorrow", but still, I don't think it'd be that much more off-theme to be Frozen themed than to be themed to the gas-powered go-karts that exist there now.

Wreck-it Ralph fits both lands... put it in the Speedway's place, build a Frozen area outside the berm, and maybe turn Storybook Circus into an actual area :p

I think that given their current affection for long-named things, I think their easiest, cheapest, most likely scenario here would be just to change the name of Tomorrowland to
"Walt Disney World Presents: The Tomorrowland of Yesterday"
Then everything is right there on-theme and all they have to do is change a few maps...

would you want to spend millions/billions on a pavilion, or $150.00 for some webaddresses, and pick up a staff webhead to design it? this sponsoring crap was advertisement, in a world without a world wide web...

I dont think there' enough room there to give Frozen an appropriate ride.

I favor closing the speedway and using some of that land.
Actually if you look at the Satellite image there is more room than the current Little Mermaid ride and meet and greet if you knock out the tents... Space is not the biggest issue... it's a willingness or desire for them to make it happen...I think they feel they have done enough in the Magic Kingdom for a while...

Did anyone else see the "soarin over the horizon" part on screamscape?

They compared soarin over yhe horizon to the star tours revamp where every ride will have different scenes and a computer "randomizer" will be used.

This makes perfect sense, I kept thinking "why are they filming california adventure, disneyland, magic kingdom AND epcot?? I first just assumed california would use their theme parks and florida would use their theme parks..but I think the randomizer makes more sense..

Sorry if this is old news..

(Is it much more likely jerry reese is just working on soarin? Hopefully it's not..as this would mean more love for epcot)
