New Canada film debuts at Epcot this weekend

2007-08-31

By Robert Niles: Orlando-area readers and visitors: Epcot's debuting its new O Canada! film on Saturday, which replaces the aging World Showcase movie which some Canadians had grown to loathe.

The new film includes updated footage, musical performances and narration from Canadian comedian Martin Short.

I've reset the voting on the film, since it is promised to be substantially new. If you get a chance to see it, please click over to TPI's O Canada! listing page and submit a review.

I think this is so funny! My wife is from Winnipeg and she hated the old movie and I thought she was just being sensitive! My Bad!

She also doesn't like Off Kilter representing Candian music. I agree with that. I love the band in that area, but there is a lot of great Canadian music one could choose from that you would think they could do something besides Off Kilter!

Saw the new film for Canada today. The film was beautiful with fantastic panoramas and a positive view of the Canadian people. The adding of Martin Short adds a humorous touch by a man who is proud of his homeland and that pride comes out in the movie.
