News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

[Phicinfan]

Just me guessing, but they may want to have Harmonious's debut happen closer to the opening of east World Celebration to get maximum spend at EPCOT's premier shopping location and improve traffic flow to the front of the park.

Or closer to EPCOT's 40th anniversary

At this point, I'd be happy with nothing at Epcot, no shows, no fireworks, nothing.. just whatever they do is only making it worse.. so just do nothing.

I don't drink either but the point still stands....this kind of talk is not helping! This doesn't encourage TDO to get back to normal!

We thinking Harm may be pushed out till then and not Oct 1? Has Harms date already been set?

No. Forever is set.

(which is coming before Humongous despite rumours to the contrary)

Not doubting EF. I meant could Harm potentially debut After Oct 1? I’m sure Oct would be the earliest?

Potentially it could be between late summer to 2097.

My DVC expires in 2060 so it needs to be by then.

You might be in with a slim chance.

Just have to stay on the mortal coil.

Question for those more well informed, the main center circle barge, is there to be an actual screen added? Or is it gonna be like WoC and have a water screen that’s projected onto?

This is pretty much then finished product and you can see where the water screen will be

You're all cute, but let's not talk like we're doomed with no Pyro for 5, 10 Years? or not till 2097???



Sorry! Was hoping for progress today on Dates for MK/Epcot and another Non Disney thing....Nope Not yet! SIGH!!!

Anyone know where the projections for the water screen are coming from?

 

[ABQ]

Follow up to the question above. I assume the stargate screen is static so this is going to create the same bottleneck projections on the castle does. Where a bunch of people try to pack into one area? The area previously used for Illuminations dessert parties will be the prime viewing location if you want to see the image on the water. Best design element of Illuminations was that it truly was theatre in the round, while this is more a half shell or even less as you won't be able to view the projection on the water screen from China across to Morocco. Unless the 4 tacos are just showing the same imagery?

Haven't read much of this thread, so apologies if it's all been covered before.

What's on the main screen is repeated on at least two other taco screens, going by artist renderings. But, I'm not ruling out something unique on the main screen that only some people will see.

 

[wdwmagic]

Yes and that whole positing is very odd. One side is facing the theater at American adventure so the prime spot is lost from that side, and the other side is frequently used for events.

I believe one version of the show had the thing rotating. Really though, this was a lesson learned long ago that shows need 360 degree vis at EPCOT.
