Which area of EPCOT needs updating the most?

**mickey** · 10-18-2001

Some of the areas of EPCOT have been recently rennovated, including Test Track and Universe of Energy. Some of the areas or original to the park. Give us your opinion on which area needs to be updated.

Ok, Body Wars makes me sick. It feels just like if you were sitting in a big, enclosed box, in the back of a truck when a sixteen year old is learning how to drive using a manual transmission. Cranium Command is ok, but once you have seen it, it is old.

This could be a neat pavilion. Updated with new rides, etc.

By the way, if anyone votes for The Land, I will be upset. The Living with the Land ride is my favorite thing in all of WDW. (If you haven't gone on the $6 tour of the greenhouses, you have missed out on the best thing you can do with your time there.) Off my soap box now...

OK, outside the Mexico boat ride, the Journey to Your Imagination is the worst ride in all of WDW. They spent tons of money to get rid of Figment, and now it is worse. I sure hope the rumors are true, that is being updated.

Yes, it is true....Journey has been put out of commission for a much needed revampment (if you will). Rehab is scheduled to be completed sometime in 2002-2003?

**mickey** · 11-06-2001

Last time we were there in October, there were no lines at all for Journey into Imagination, and all of the cast members there said it was closing. I understand that Honey I Shrunk the Audience is also closed for rehab, scheduled to open sometime before Thanksgiving. I heard a figure of $5,000,000 budget for the rehab of both rides.

I'd say living seas it's just plain boring!:dazed

I have to say that after just visiting the LS - which was like the Dead Sea - I am afraid that it is on its way out. And what a shame!

They no longer have the ride so you just stand around looking at some fish. They really need to jazz it up and have many more interactive things. LS is a great idea - you are at the fish level but hey, I didn't pay my admission to be bored.:(

I voted for The Living Seas. (one of my favs though)

Seems Disney might be doing something because the small ride inside was removed. At least I think so.

MJD · 04-01-2005

The LS is doing much better now with Turtle Talk! Needs some minor adjustments and it should be OK. SE is getting old. Some of the future technology they show is actually part of the past now. I love that ride and it is in need of updating!

Universe of energy is always one of my favorites!

**Dana** · 04-01-2005

I put wonders of life since they made that area "seasonal" . Maybe a few new attractions or some sprucing will make it open all year.

DisneyDude85 · 06-07-2005

I think the American Adventure could use an update in the World Showcase.

darbyogill · 06-07-2005

They can do something better with Wonders of Life. Living Seas is actually doing great now since they have capitalized on the Finding Nemo characters. I wish there was a ride in every World Showcase pavilion. Innoventions needs to be promoted more and for God's sake don't have stores everywhere!

Spaceship Earth

I cant remember the last time I visited Innoventions. It was just lame, IMO.
