I LOVE World Showcase. I just love being able to see all the different countries and being able to taste their food and indulge in their culture is so much fun. Especially since I will probably never get to any of those countries, it's fun to walk around world showcase.

C'mon, where's the fun in that (hehe). I wanted to make it a tough decision to really think about which side makes you want to go there. Deep down there has to be one of them that is truely your favorite and just needs to be discovered! Although, maybe having both is what makes this a lot of people's favorite park to really get 2 kinds of experiences in 1.

notice, though, that I didn't add a third option. I COULD, but I chose not to.

You're going to make me choose?!!! It is a really good dilemma to have since the park is really comprised of two totally opposite lands to attract two different audience groups.

That would be the easy way out. Good move.

I enjoy the World Showcase part of Epcot. Gotta love the ability to sample foods from different nations all in one place!

I chose Future World primarily because I'm hoping to work there in the very near future (as a marine biologist...yes, I know I'm unique lol). I also really enjoy the Land stuff. But neither section could survive on it's own. They balance each other out well.

Can we have a 'Both' option? :D

I picked Future World..... mainly for Soarin' and for sneaking around the bushes blocking off WoL and snooping around back there. :lol:

Epcot

Post by ksilvercool » Mar Sun 01, 2009 6:54 pm

The main thing that draws me here is of course the stylish costumes of the test track cast members!

What draws me to Epcot is that it is what Walt really wanted (modified of course) for his Florida project.

hrmmm, which one....

Post by luarth » Mar Tue 03, 2009 9:14 am

I am unsure which one I would choose if only one was to exist. I fell in love with EPCOT the first year it opened when I was in 6th grade. It was a combination of all of the cool technological stuff being exhibited along with being able to see 'snapshots' of the world. When it comes down to it, I think my two favorites are The Land (I love to listen to the boat ride and relax in the restaurant.) and Mexico. If there was any way I could make just 1 room in my house anything, it would have to be the environment inside that pavilion. Something about the nighttime atmosphere and the romanticism inherent just speak to me :)

What draws me to Epcot?

Post by Peerless83 » Mar Tue 03, 2009 9:43 am

Of all the things to do in the Walt Disney World Resort..spending the day at EPCOT is by far my favorite thing to do. I never had an appreciate for the park when I was younger only because I did not really care about technology or the cultures of other nations. But now that I have gotten older, walking around world showcase (maybe taste testing a few adult beverages or 11) and enjoying the cast members and the different little things to do in each country is something that I can do over and over again (and I have..and will continue to do). It would be nice if Disney ever goes forward with adding the original nations that were supposed to go into world show case. I guess they can plan that for their 30th anniverary!

I voted for World Showcase. It is always interesting. That being said, Soarin' did make me consider just calling them even and not voting. It really boosted my interest in Future World.
