Video Debut of Canadian Lumberjack Show

That will be nice to hear a half dozen times a day in Epcot. :rolleyes2 :sad2:

Have a great trip, Bill. Wish I was going to be there instead of heading in for a knee replacement tomorrow, out of commission for some time ahead.

Good luck with that, Dan, better days are ahead.

Perhaps the show will answer the most profound riddle to plague mankind since the dawn of time: How much wood would a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck, could chuck, wood?

And this one as well...

If a tree is cut at EPCOT and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?
 
do the kids still say things are "Epic Fails" nowadays?

if so I don't know if that even covers a teensy bit of how terrible this is.

maybe UoR will pick up Off Kilter and we can get AP's over there instead this year.
 
Somewhere in Canada Off Kilter is laughing hysterically.. This is dreadful. Epcot should be ashamed.

Hopefully there is a defibrillator and a trauma kit nearby.

Sadly, which as a Canadian I always thought it was an insult that the artists in Off Kilter were not Canadian performers performing on a 'Canadian' stage... so no they aren't laughing anywhere in Canada.
 

Here's a thought Disney ... why not hire some great Canadian talent through the college program or cultural ambassador program? They wouldn't cost you an arm and a leg and they wouldn't be faux Canadians boring your guests with stereotyped crap. I would bet if you put out a casting call via these programs you could find some very talented east coast fiddlers and step dancers, francophone singers, Aboriginal Canadian singers & dancers, etc.

You mean have people from the actual countries....in Epcot....that's a crazy idea...;)

Next thing you know you'll be asking them to serve Norwegian beer in Norway.

I know I'm a pretty wacky chic and this is a really out there suggestion! But until a box office blockbuster comes along about a fictional, yet Canadian-esque country that they can use to shove into the Canadian pavilion that's all I've got :rotfl2:

ETA ... come to think of it, since we seem to be basing Epcot attractions of stereotypes, lots of people have the misconception that much of Canada is Frozen for a good part of the year, and we do have reindeer ... this could be a great opportunity for the Frozen-crazy WDW PTB to squeeze in another Frozen attraction! Why not just slide a Sven & Kristoff show onto the lumberjack stage?!
 
Jabs and guesses are pretty accurate.

Could we just wait to see what they actually do with it? There's no way to know if the videos on youtube and elsewhere are what they are going to be doing in Epcot. I'm expecting a little more polished production than what I see on sample videos.

Really, it's a little premature to call it a bust.

The video I linked to IS the actual show at Epcot
 
So... do we actually know anything about the show or are we all just taking jabs and guesses based off of the stage and name?

Not guessing anything. The video link I posted IS the actual show at Epcot - its first day performance in fact
 
Wow, just wow. Now I understand just how low budget they were planning. This show really "rolls logs," if you catch my drift.

Actually, I thought they couild use some of the opening of the Canada movie for the new Frozen ride and save money ... "Arendelle, big, wide, and very very cold..."

best to you on the knee Dan. My SIL's Mom had it done a year or so back and is doing great! On the up-side no snow shoveling for you this winter! :thumbsup2 WDW is under refurb the same time as you, lol....

I just want to wish you quick healing and as little pain as possible. Hopefully you'll be able to listen to those chainsaws very soon. :)

Back to the topic at hand, what is truly worse? Boring entertainment that surely no one will care about or hopefully decent entertainment that doesn't fit? Poor Norway and Canada now.

Who's next? ;)

Thanks you, Bill and Pam both, for the good wishes, much appreciated.
 
PLEASE. Take them home, We beg you. :rotfl2:

Hmm, we aren't about to take Justin Bieber or Celine Dion back, so I don't think we're going to take a return on some non-Canadian lumberjacks! Especially monsieur le Capitaine or whatever the heck fake French name he called himself! :rotfl:
