AmAd received a digital upgrade in the early past, so I think France, China, and Canada are the only ones still on film. It makes sense that france would get the update, too, as it makes it MUCH easier to alternate IdF and the BatB sing-along.

France was already upgraded to digital before American Adventure

Thank you for the correction - I'm not too familiar with IdF, as I rarely see it.

France is on its second lot of digital projectors now. Seamless screens are proposed for China, France and Canada.

Time to move to the Epcot sub forum @wdwmagic ?

They should use the narration they used in the Vancouver opening ceremony as well as the music, Gavin Greenaway did one heck of a job

Epcot's O Canada to close in August to begin upgrades

O Canada! News

Work will begin on a number of upgrades to the World Showcase show.

Hopefully the rockwork can be upgraded to modern Disney standards (or even 1982 standards-the rockwork here never looked great.)

Try watching the original version with the Portraits of Canada soundtrack.

It’s a thorough refurbishment project so one hopes so.

ETA when it will reopen?

This would be a perfect time to show some love to the Pavillion overall and not just the theater and movie. Build a lounge in the old crystal/china shop and serve up the more popular items from Le Cellier and you could make a ton! Come on Mouse!

The song! Is it safe?

I would love a maritime history and folk music-inspired whiskey bar. Multiple whiskey offerings, craft on tap, and small plates...Stan Rogers music, models of schooners and dim oil lamps...theres so much they could do!

I love this idea. I am loving all the new lounges, and the ease of popping in. The small plates and a cocktail (or 2..) are perfect for me, and they are especially fun when I am there solo!

I didn't realize France was 5 cameras. China & Canada are 9. So to me it feels like digitizing the original film would end up very blurry. My bet is it's going to be all new films.

It would not be blurry. Why should it be?

I think the concern is that they won't be able to 'sew' the images together digitally without blurring or 'artifacts' from the process. Perhaps the tech is to the point they can make it invisible. Would be amazing.
