CedarPointer Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 You have to make it to the end, which is a musical number that shows space stations and underwater cities as some golden-voiced man coos, "The future belongs to the dreamer/The dreamer inside of you/The dreams of the future/All shiny and new."

LordSkippy Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 Wow. If I had a dollar for every cancelled Disney ride/attraction/park area I would like to have seen completed, I could probably afford a one-day Magic Your Way ticket with Parkhopper.

Gabe Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 keep in mind the entire concept of epcot changed dramatically from seed to germination (and from Walt's original vision for the "Florida Project").

There's a reason a new country hasnt been added since Morocco, even though space exists for several more countries, should the circumstances arise. 1 Quote

They could make a fifth gate with just the good rides removed from Epcot and I would be happy.

Gabe Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 Even though only 25% of the land can be ever be developed at WDW, there is still plenty of room for 2-3 more gates, plus hotels. Being first has its advantages! 1 Quote
