News New Play Pavilion to replace Epcot's Wonders of Life

[Vinnie Mac]

I just hope if this project is being reworked, they get rid of the god awful disney emoji theming. How are those things still relevant.

Because people still use emojis...?

As an emoji user, plastering disney emojis on play just seems like trying too hard. Don't mind disney emojis conceptually, but I have my limits.

Real ones know

Not referring to emojis in general, I specifically mean those god awful Disney emojis. They were cute at first, but I wouldn't call them timeless. I see them being as dated as Ralph Breaks the Internet will be 5-10 years from now. The pavilion looks so much better without them.

At this point, just make this a new version of the EPCOT character spot with an ever evolving roster of characters.

This thread is almost 4 years old to the day...and are we even sure this is still happening?

At least I'll always have my PLAY! poster.

You can put that next to the festival center poster.

I like that they're just ignoring that the icon is supposed to be the festival center leg.

You can paper over most of the tombstones in the Haunted Mansion graveyard...

Wait- why is Mexico included here?

Wait- why is Mexico included here?

The model in the 50th Expo in Odyssey showed Miguel's guitar as large as the pyramid. That and with Miguel front and center in the poster makes it clear that there was once plans to go ahead and retheme Gran Fiesta to Coco. Alas, it seems dead now.

The model also seemed to imply Imagination was getting a Figment re-do. And it didn't.

Both of these were rumored by our Insiders as a strong possibility... at one time.

And why is Pinocchio in the Italy pavilion?... Were they hoping the live remake was going to reinvigorate that IP and lead to a Pinocchio attraction? Hmmm? Probably not. And the movie bombed big time.

 

[_caleb]

Got it. Funny-I saw that you included Imagination and didn’t even think that was odd, but saw Mexico (and noticed Miguel and his guitar) and wondered if maybe you were hinting at something I’d missed!

Man EPCOT used to be so cool and inspiring.

Maelstrom's poster should have been an audience in a theater watching a documentary!

Maelstrom's poster should have been an audience in a theater watching a documentary!

In reality It should have been a bunch of people walking by with one family sitting in the middle seats.
