[Banzai]

Slightly Different!

 

[helenabear]

Wow! Very cool!!! It is different but I am also surprised with how much they didn't change it!

 

[Disfan1]

Neat! I've never seen that before!

Actually if you want to get technical (), this is the orginal plan for EPCOT:

 

[Joe Cool]

Way cool. Yea they usually do like 30 different plans for the theme parks before the final one...there are warehouses the size of football fields with all the unused drawings. They never throw any concept art or models away...

EPCOT wasn't originally supposed to be a theme park, but more of a metropolis meets celebration type place.

[Deb in IA]

I remember in One Man's Dream, they said that even as Walt lay dying of lung cancer in his hospital room, he was envisioning the layout of EPCOT, and "sketching" it on the ceiling . . .


Too bad he never saw his dreams fulfilled

You can see the movie/plan of Epcot on the new Disney Treasures DVD "Tomorrowland."

Someone has entirely too much time on her hands!

I looked at this, and was like:

"When did I post this? Was I sleep posting?" Then I saw the date.

 

[Dan Murphy]

I can recall when you were posting this and others similar, Brad.

It seems so long ago. It's amazing how much has changed in two years. I was just becoming a sophomore, now I am a senior to be.
