The whole idea is ridiculous. I come to a theme park for the fantastic, for things I can't see at home, at work, on my freaking phone.<br /><br />And the imagery that used to be in the descent was beautiful. Now while I'm trying to ignore the dumb flash video all I have to look at is unfinished blackness.<br /><br />Here's hoping imagineering runs out of new ideas.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2228174552203445896.post-25308375919613190372009-10-27T16:46:46.665-04:002009-10-27T16:46:46.665-04:00I also agree with your assessment.

I think today's audience has changed compared to 20 years ago and it's harder to grab their attention but this overhaul really addresses that audience while keeping "classic" EPCOT ideals.<br /><br />There have been a lot of big misfires in Future World over the past decade+ (Test Track, Mission:SPACE are good rides but don't quite "get" EPCOT; JIYI was (and still pretty much is) just crap; and the demolition of Horizons was unforgivable) but SSE v4 hits all of the right notes.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15901254954146927255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2228174552203445896.post-70203478162705845762009-10-27T15:19:26.664-04:002009-10-27T15:19:26.664-04:00FWIW, I pretty much agree with your assessment!

And for them it's very repeatable. And they love the post-show area.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12409785011989904117noreply@blogger.com
