That would have been neat, a shame it didn’t make the cut. What time frame was that from?
Early on it was intended to open October 1982. Time, money, and incorrect structural designs of the show building pushed it to a phase two status, same as Rhine River. Sponsored attractions took the limelight after that, Morocco, Seas, Norway, Wonders.

Meet the World, a carousel theatre show (but the central stage would rotate in the middle of static seating) on an upper level, with a modern shopping district below it.
Wait a second...this shows rotating central seating in the middle of static stages:

To be honest, I don't get this diagram at all, which seems to show the pre-show leading directly to "Stage 1." Could you explain?

Thanks, but that doesn't answer my questions. Martin's video shows what is presumably rotating seating, but that's not what he just said. And my point is that the diagram doesn't make sense--it shows the queue leading to a stage. I'm wondering if the diagram is an earlier or later version of what Martin shows in his video.

The diagram is for the final version. So what’s shown in the Japan pavilion plans would have to be an earlier iteration.

Sorry... my bad. I have a fluey bug and feel ugh and got it back to front! I’m not thinking straight.

My video is correct :)

Ironically it needs maybe 10-15% updating. Far less than Wonders of China did.

The new projection system worked wonders. Give or take the odd broken pixel or hundred.
Sadly, even tough only a few shots only need replacing... I bet it wouldn't get approved as a project unless at least 25% of the shots were new. Not saying that they couldn't get some great new material in there, but to marni's original point... it would be fine with a 10% swap.

And leave the soundtrack as it is. That can't be improved upon.
