Epcot Details 25th Anniversary Plans

September 19, 2007, 9:49 AM · According to the Orlando Sentinel, Epcot is now going to have a public rededication ceremony on October 1st. In addition the park will have special retro guide maps, an exhibit hall, and a special version of Illuminations: Reflections of Earth. Although it's not the grand celebration that most Disney fans are hoping for, it is a step in the right direction.

It would have been better to rehab all of EPCOT by redoing some of the attractions. Some actions have been taken:

New Canada movie
New Spaceship Earth
Nemo and Friends at the Living Seas

Need to do:

Fix Imagination Pavilion
New Wonders of Life
A new Country would be nice (Greece maybe?)

September 20, 2007 at 7:12 AM · Eh. I'm just glad that Epcot is constantly updating. It's nice.
