Permanent Ralph Breaks The Internet Family Play Zone Debuts at Epcot

[CraftyFox]

Wow.

“Effort”

They had one for the spring festival that was by its appearance temporary. This one plus the the additional walkways that were added seems like it’s going to be here for a while.

There’s really nothing about this installation that is any more permanent than past festival playgrounds. They have all included steel structures, artificial turf, and some concrete walls and paths. Not saying this one won’t stick around longer. But it really is no different than those that came before it.

You know everyone needs to go mad and talk about EPCOT Center being the greatest thing and how Walt would have never approved or something like this.

Yep. The same Walt that built this at Disneyland...

Not really. They all look basically the same.

But they're all bigger.
But then again bigger doesn't always mean better.

More dumbing down for the lowest denominator of basic guests. Such a shame the company doesn't fire the idiots who comes up with these ideas

Well, Walt started it. Where should we fire the block of ice?

I mean I hate the idea too, but did you miss this post?

Well, the Epcot reimagining is complete. Hope you all like it.

"kids go play on the playground while mommy and daddy drink around the world and get into a fight"

Perfect! It really shouts Experimental prototype of tomorrow eh?

Walt's guests in 1955 were not as trashy as 2018 guest. Alas wdw has become a cesspool for the unwashed masses. Too bad

Even genius men like Walt have momentary lapse in judgements....its no excuse to justify this trash. At this point Epcot should just be hit by a tornado and removed from earth since the company is too dumb to actually uphold what it was originally. And it's so sad their are fools on this forum who are content with its demise. Just makes me believe we need another plague to remove to the individuals who have basic taste

Well, gawrsh.

Tell me this is a joke. Please!

 

[MisterPenguin]

Tell me this is a joke. Please!

Yeah, just a joke. People have kids that like to play. Hilarious.

 

[EPICOT]

EPCOT’s spine refresh is complete ahead of schedule! Enjoy!

Walt would be turning in his grave.

Epcot was not meant to be this rubbish. It was the attention to detail that made Disney a success, the little things.

 

[eddie104]

It's just a playground...I don't see the outrage or topic to discuss.

 

[Jones14]

Disney fans: Take us seriously!

Disney fans: How dare you put a tiny playground in the middle of an area that currently has no attractions that are suitable for small children!

 

[RandySavage]

For me, the low-level execution (with the astroturf, it looks like something you'd find at your local gymboree or strip mall) of this puts it into a similar category as Tomorrowland DJ Dance party or "play Baggo/Cornhole with a castmember". I try to ignore these things, but even passing by, they make the place feel a little less extraordinary and a little more pedestrian.

It's a playground for the kids. Big deal.

 

[Mickey5150]

Y’all, we walked past it today. It takes up maybe 100 square feet and it looks nice. The kids running around on it looked happy.

Burn it to the ground, though, right?

Wait, you have seen it in person and not just a picture? I don't believe you are qualified to talk about it anymore.

I'm not sorry to say that I love Epcot just as I love all of WDW. However I am sorry that there are people in this world that resort to name calling and the wish of death on people who happen to enjoy something they do not.
