Well that would certainly be making lemonade out of lemons
Why not bring back Surprise in the Skies while they're at it and have the planes attempt to go through the ring, of course they won't always fit so you'll see pyro in the day too. They could also leave the giant inflatables inflated all day long cause why not at this point, amirite?

It certainly isn't all that appealing but like @CastAStone said I have never really just sat and gazed at the view across the lagoon. I am sure it will hurt photopass backgrounds though.

I don't know but maybe people aren't stuck living in the 80s anymore?

I wonder if the presentation of this downplayed the visual impact of these things.
Or maybe I’m giving the executive team that approved this too much credit.

The atmosphere of WS and the lagoon has been on life support since October 1, 2019. Today, Disney decided that it was time to pull the plug.
It’s nothing about the 80s. It’s about having standards.

SuITS was hidden when not playing. Your point?

Time to build an exposed track mount Fuji roller coaster in Japan. Just throw up the velocicoaster and itll fit in with the harmonious barges! Bing bang boom. Where is my executive salary? I also take stock options. The care put into decision to put these out was less than that for some idiot to write this post.

Sure but I’m not the one bitter about a “lost Epcot” or “mistake on the lake”
If this show impresses than to me it’s worth it. Illuminations barges albeit didn’t sit out all day but those weren’t exactly pretty either.
IMO some of you need to stop living in the Epcot past. That Epcot has been gone for decades at this point. Maybe because I never saw it I don’t have the attachment that many of you do but Epcot needs the work desperately. I was huge fan of illuminations but even that had run its course.
It’s nothing about the past. It’s about present day standards.
Sorry but it’s laughable you’re trying to defend this absolute cluster.
“If this show impresses than to me it’s worth it.” Comments like this are why standards have dropped and why they think it’s okay. It is not okay. Not for Disney.

Sight lines are a disney standard. Just like garbage cans every 30 feet etc.
I’m not that much of a fan of Illuminations, it was fine but I could miss it and wouldn’t bat an eyelid.
But those things sitting out there looking how they do? I can’t believe anyone thinks that’s okay. You might as well just build the front half of the castle, or a bare skeleton coaster.
Who wants basic theming in a theme park? What a crazy idea...

It’s no denying this is definitely going to change the world showcase lagoon. Notice how I didn’t say ruin because we don’t know what the final effect will be with the fountains and such. Which I admit probably won’t fix this but since we haven’t seen the full effect I am withholding judgement. I still am excited for this show, it has a real opportunity to be great.

Having this opinion about FutureWorld is warranted.
These permanent black marks on a once beautiful setting, where you were afforded a very unique, serene view of the pavilions around the World Showcase has nothing to do with the Epcot of yesteryear.
They are VERY poor show, sort of what I would expect from Six Flags... not Disney.
