How long do the circle vision type films last in the EPCOT countries? And which is the best? Do you stand? I know of China, France, Canada .... are those right or are there others.
 
Norway, a short film at the end of the boat ride. I believe you stand in Canada you sit in France. Not sure about China. They normally run about 20 mins.
 
You stand in China and I think China's movie is about 5 hours long... or at least it seemed like it:rotfl2:
 

You stand in China and Canada. Sit in France. BTW France is our favorite!! :thumbsup2
 
I haven't seen the France film or the Norway film (although I have ridden Maelstrom many times). Canada and China are both "standing movies". I thought the China film was captivating and beautiful. The Canada fim probably did not do justice to what I am sure is a beautiful land. It could use an update. Seems like they were both 15-20 minutes long

They are all worth a look, but they are mostly very dated(China had an update). The music in the French pavilion is awesome.:earsboy:
 
I have seen all three of them but I do not remember the China movie. I really like Canada and France's films. I think a lot of people will say they like France better because it is the only one that you can sit and rest for a while but for me that is a danger. I am usually on the go so much while I am there that if I sit down, I will probably take a nap. So with that in mind, I would have to go with Canada (besides the fact that I think the scenery is awesome in this film).
 
I too love the music in the France movie.
I rode Maelstrom today -- and no movie. :scratchin Maybe it was down? Or are they changing it? :confused:
 
France (sitting) is beautiful. China (standing) is amazing. Norway (sitting) and Canada (don't remember, but I'll trust everyone else) both stink.

America (sitting) is VERY popular. I get a little ticked about America, because all the other countries focus on the beauty and good things in their country. America spends a lot of time talking about the bad points of our history. But, again, lots of people love it, so maybe it is just me.
 
Canada's Circlevision film is 17 mins.
China's Circlevision film is 19 mins.
France (not Circlevision) is 18 mins.
The small theater at the end of Maelstrom in Norway shows a 5 min. film.
 
The only one going while we werer there was Canada. I thought it was boring but DH loved it. You are supposed to stand but I was exhausted and sat on the floor.
 
I never even knew France HAD a movie!!! I can't believe I've missed it all those trips!

We don't stay for Norway's. After seeing it a few times, we just skip it now. I love the music in Canada's movie. It makes me well up--and I've never even BEEN to Canada!!!

I agree! To me this is too similar to Hall of Presidents and should be a nice movie showing the many examples of natural beauty of the U.S. not to mention some examples of our customs and the people who live here today. Not a long, boring history lesson.
