What if connectors were built so that both Mission Space and Guardians exited into the old WOL building and it was reimagined as a Intergalactic Space Port or Cosmos Pavilion...with a few new attractions and shows... to tie the Outer Space/Space Travel concept into the quadrant of World Whatever it is called this week.

That makes too much sense. It will never happen.

Wasn’t there a phase two Marvel plan rumored for the Wonders building at one time??

Yes. But the source, Martin, also said it was killed and it was definitively decided that CR will be the only Marvel attraction in EPCOT.

But, things can always change. Especially since there was a rumor a year or two ago (one I'm very skeptical of being in serious contention) that the African refreshment post was in consideration to become Wakanda.

I'm looking forward to a Shang-Chi stunt show in the China Pavilion, tho!!!

I think this would be an excellent location for an ultimate Club Cool. A huge rotunda of free drink machines serving every single drink under the entire Coca Cola umbrella from every single nation around the earth. A beacon of unity in a divided world. The current Club Cool is an okay start but much too small.

Can we fill our 72 oz mugs?

Would love to know if there's anything more @marni1971 can say considering its been so long. Heck, we're coming up on half a decade since the final proposal was announced and the site has been more or less stagnant for more than half that time. Wondering when more people are gonna talk about what would've been for that alone.

This was kind of the original pitch of the concept to help justify guardians. I love the use of WOL done for that. Dang we need a modern health pavilion somewhere.

Your idea
It would be great for the whole real becomes fantastic and the fantastic becomes real.

And spot on with pavilion to neighborhood nanes Ha.

Not really. Aside from hello, how are you doing ?!

I am well! More of the same, continuing to fish for Wonders info. The rejected proposals both fascinate and elude me, I know there were several over the last decade that entered at least some state of development before being canned.

And something else to file in the “botched Epcot transformation” folder.

This may honestly be the worst offender in the whole project to me, second to what happened with CC West. At least a replacement attraction has opened/will open for everything else, the Wonders site is sitting in a state of purgatory that it may not leave for several years yet. Such a shame.

So what is going up behind the walls? Is it all just the Moana area?
Click to expand...

I have not been there recently so I don't know how many walls are all still around the park besides Moana. Probably a lot I guess.

Wonders of Life is a dome building tucked back there between Mission Space and Rewind and if there are walls it is just to deter people from wondering if they can go up there and a lot of unifinished upkeep.
