Ya, I didn't circle the correct thing they were trying to describe. It's WSp but it does look a bit...funky from that angle.

Thanks! Is there an ETA for the Canada show to reopen?
Festival of the Arts I believe.

With the song?
When it reopens can Disney bring back those deep fried sugar goodness snack " Beaver Tails" that was sold outside by the Canada entrance 20 years ago?

All the images of Tibet were removed for Reflections. Pity, they were beautiful and unique images of Lhasa. Maybe HK will follow suit this time.
But that all feels more as giving in to Western sensitivities rather than Chinese. (So much lWestern love for the backward religious autocracy)
Personally I hope all the Western references will go. I understand that they wish to make China feel less alien, are trying to show a more international influenced China for an introduction. But really, Shanghai as city where East meets West....Macao...Hong Kong as mixed West and East. Come on, China is a bit more distinctly Chinese.
Incidentally,I do hope Li Bai stays. There is a poetry to his words that suits the imagery, and the soundtrack. That suits EPCOT. If not as dreamy as IdF there is still a poetry which makes the movie repeatedly watchable. Rewatchable because it lives up to how Li Bai describes Chinese art: a poem in every painting, and a painting in every poem. RoC is at its best when it lives up to this, when evokes China through sheer choice of form. When it seeks to find the poetry of the land or city scape, or evokes imagery through poetry of words.
My money is on Disney just having Mulan show us around Mickey Avenue and calling it a day though.

Those trees look awful irl. I wasn't expecting that. Like they scored a cheap box of forgotten plastic Christmas trees that had been gathering dust in some garden shop storage since 1997.
Really rather unconvincing trees.
In the foreground, a real pine tree. In the background, a Pineas Plasticus Canadium.

Wow...those are bad. Our fake Christmas tree looks way better and it was not expensive....but we do have to fluff up the branches after it's been in storage all year.
The Chinese communist government rules with an iron fist.

Oh my word Johnny and Moira Rose will narrate the new Canada film. They are both very good at their jobs. Looking forward to Catherine and Eugene!
Yes. Legacy IDF will still be divided on screen though.

Any idea if You're a lifetime journey song will still be used in Canada Far and wide?
