[QUOTE=plutotek;36762873]Based on???



South Korea would be great, for the same reason you stated

I the plans I have seen for Epcot and people I know. I assure you Turkey was never seriously considered.[/QUOTE]

You never know. Turkey could be there one day.

 

[TXHauntedMansionFan]

If this is true, I hope they put a rest area next to it. I always get tired after Turkey.

This made me laugh pretty hard...well done RedDog!

I think that Switzerland or Greece would be pretty cool as well. Maybe Australia even??

You don't have to believe me but Turkey is not coming. Before a new country is added there will be an attraction added 1, possibly 2 countrys that already exhist.

my mom and I were is Epcot two nights ago and there was a spot with a lot of construction barriers up, we thought possibly a new country. I thought Egypt would be cool just based historically with the pyramids, but hey ya never know with Disney

What you saw was the Cantina refurb walls. The old Cantina outside Mexico was demolished and is being built much bigger and better! It will be open in the Fall.

Like everything else, plans change.

Australia, or possibly a South American country would be a nice addition.

Not these plans most are already in motion.

I guess I will concede to your obvious omniscience.

Don't expect anything for WS in the next 5 years. The next major project for Epcot is the JII overhaul which will occur within in the next 1-2 years.

No way!! Really?!?!? I have been praying this would happen! Hopefully, they will put it back to its original granduer.....I saw no reason it needed to be changed...refurbed, yes; changed, no.

Anyway.....back on track. I wouldn't mind seeing Greece. I think Lorraine's idea has a lot of merit. Bring in the Hercules characters (and some GREAT food) plus the temples.

Also, Figment632, you might want to check your spelling and punctuation if you want others on this board to trust you....typing in quick responses can lead to bad things (trust me.....and thanks for the tip....now I'll be looking for more info on JII).

Seriously, Fig, we get it. No Turkey...EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (but ya never know)

I know that a couple months ago they were doing surveys in Epcot asking which country guests would most like to see added to WS. That, of course, isn't a sure sign that something is coming- but at least you know they're thinking about it!

At the risk of sounding dumb, I have to ask- what is JII?

 

[mariepapa]

I would love to see Greece, seeing that I married a man from Greece and have been there many times. The culture is interesting, the food to die for and the ancient architecture amazing!

Journey into Imagination

 

[missiloveslouie]

Me too-- JII??-- oops, answered as I wrote it. That would be awesome- never got to see the original version and I heard that was the best

 

[ugadog68]

They just added Brazil...



but only in January

 

[bellaDisneydncr]

Journey into Imagination

ah, yep. sounded dumb lol thanks! I don't know why i didn't think of that.

hahahahahahaha love it.

 

[Lou Holtz]

An overhaul of Journey Into Imagination doesn't seem relevant enough to be Epcot's BIG project for the next five years.

 

[j&j620]

it's still fun to speculate though!!

I'd like Ireland, Scotland, Switzerland or Russia!!

I've always found it odd that eastern Europe isn't represented (maybe because I'm 50% Ukrainian). I figured the Cold War had something to do with it, though...

 

[BrerSam]

I would like to see Russia added if anything i think.

 

[Schmeck]

Russia, Greece, India (although it is represented at AK), Australia, how about Thailand/Cambodia/Vietnam? Or are they also in the Asia part of AK?
