Epcot (General Discussion)

Perhaps, if what was also meant was walls for both sides being down by the end of the summer. I can't see why the walls for only one side would still need to be up in three months given how quickly the tombstones have started to be ushered offstage.

Once the stones are gone they need to remove all the pedestals and most likely form the new planters for each side. That’s where I’m thinking it will take all summer to get both sides finished. That also includes electric for the lights and water for bed irrigation.

If Wakanda comes to World Showcase as a new country, on a scale of 1-10, how tone deaf and stupid would that be?

Oh God..... 10/10.

I literally forgot about that movie

Epcot seems like it has been chosen as the 'Marvel' park for some reason...I would rather it replace the WoL pavilion

It would fit right in since they can't build a Black Panther themed ride seeing as they seem to think that World Showcase countries don't need rides...

Is this something we should worry about at D23?

Incredibly, considering Black Panther is off limits.

Chapek probably thinks Wakanda is a real country, so I'd bet he'd see it as a totally natural fit.

But seriously, if Disney can't use Black Panther himself, I don't know that they'd see a character-less Wakanda as a great investment for Florida.

I know, I wish Disney had more intellectual properties to make rides out of

So supposedly the Doctor Strange show that's rumored for DCA is also being explored for Epcot.

I knew it!

Whoever said Epcot is becoming the "Marvel" park is not wrong clearly. Seems like it'll be world showcase mixed with Marvel Comics mixed with Figment.

The way it seems to me is that Disney could sort of package their Marvel characters as a Cosmic section of the park. I believe they have the rights for Shang-Chi and The Eternals should they want to use them as well. If they did it properly, it could sort of work as a sub-land of Future World.

But we all know they won't do it properly.

Dr Strange show was my pick to put in the WoL pavilion on my podcast the week before play pavilion was announced. That way they’d have a Marvel corner. Plus next to space ride. Tangentially related.

Cosmic with magic is not Epcot.

I'm not saying it is, but I mean the park is much more likely to go this direction than back to Epcot's roots.

When I say it could work properly, I mean as best as possible within Epcot. Splitting Marvel stuff off from the rest of the park would be the preferred method as Alicia said above.
