Re: Who else misses Horizons at EPCOT Center?

Yeah those EPCOT rides are tricky. The main pavilions have 10 year contracts with companies that sponsor them.

Re: Who else misses Horizons at EPCOT Center?

Hey brerrabbit :) To me, Horizons was the embodiment of what EPCOT is about - optimism, the promise of technology, science and exploration. It was super cool and had lots of neat little touches - a very early giant wraparound IMAX screen, a choose your own adventure at the end, a really nice soundt...

Re: Sorcerer's Hat being removed from HS?

Just saw a picture with the hat completely gone, got to say, kinda like the new view!! Not as sad about it as I thought I would be!1 I remembered the view before the hat and that is one of the reasons I was happy to see it was being taken down ~ the theater is a beautiful structure to see when you ...

Re: Pirates of the Caribbean ~ Lengthy refurbishment

I think I got more wet on Pirates my last trip in June 2014, than I did on Splash mountain!! Glad to hear they are trying to fix things! I also got to sit in a big puddle of water as soon as we boarded for our first ride, maybe this will help that as well.
