We are not spending a full day at Epcot but have dinner reservations at 5:30 at Le Cellier. We were hoping to get there a little before and do Circle of Life, Soaring, the Land, Living with the Land and see Living Seas and Spaceship Earth quickly. I noticed that Future World closes at 7:00 that day. Taking into consideration dinner what time should we get to Epcot to finish everything by 7:00. 7-9 we were going to do Showcase until Illuminations. We are going to be at Animal Kingdom earlier in the day and wanted to go back to the resort for a nap for the kids. What do you all think of the timing, or should we skip anything?

If you are inside the park at about 3 and get a FastPass for Soarin' first (assuming they are available still, I amnot up-to-date on when they usually run out these days), you stand a good chance of seeing the things you list (assuming you won't do Turtle Talk) if you tour commando-style.
Remember that SE is a 15 minute ride and Circle of Life lasts 12 minutes, plus waits of up to the same. The Living Seas easily takes half an hour even if you do it quickly. Living with the Land is likely to have a line during that time of the day as well (easily half an hour, depending on the season), plus it's an 11-minute ride. It's tight but managable.
 
Its gonna depend on that Soarin fastpass. Sometimes they run out very early in the day.
 
Want to add that although Future World officially closes at 7pm the major attractions will continue operating until 9pm....or the closing time of World Showcase if that is later.
Attractions like Spaceship Earth, Mission: Space, Soarin' and Test Track operate every day until 9pm even with the posted 7pm close of Future World.

Well, that changes everything! Looks like we will have time. I didn't know that! Thanks!
