EpcotServo's Updates #2.89- Let It Snoap

Hey there and Happy Holidays again my friends! Time for one more Update before the new year, to get you in the Spectacle kind of mood! Read on, using the adjacent clicker device on your computer or laptop type device!

STUDIOS


-Crowds mild to heavy, weather mild

-Things are getting so efficient at WDW, that nothing is efficient. Everything is full, utilized, time-managed, and over-thought. It seems like since full integration, the MCP system has everything gridlocked into rigid conformity that makes everything slow and efficient. If ALL the people have Fastpasses it just means every street is packed and every queue is empty and near-stationary. Pbbbbt.

-For instance, Star Tours is now distributing Fastpass windows that are for RIGHT NOW. So weird.

-Spectacle is still great

-STUDIOS!

-SEASONS GREETINGS!

-STUFF!

-And other things, too.

OK, that's about it...Now to the Pictures!

ENJOY!^^

Heya everyone and welcome to more Update! Please follow the words to the picturezone making room available to the internets visitors coming in behind you.

EPCOT


-Great weather and low crowds!

-First time using the turnstyle-free entry boopers. It's pretty nice, albeit very Doctor Who Cyber-Monster Creepy. It's fast and easy though.

-Starbucking

-Test Track exterior loop has gotten some exterior signage along the exterior loop, including a nice Progress City tribute right after exiting into the outside.

-NewTrack is still great and all the effects were working.

-Illuminations does have a new alternating blink effect with all the countries popcorn lights.

-It's also still such a perfect show.

-Japan has some cheap Totoro fans perfect for the Ghibli fan on a hot day! Instabuy for lots including me.

-Eperfection

OK that's about it, on to the Pictures!

ENJOY!^^

EpcotServo's Updates #2.60- The Geosphere To Be Here

Hello UpdateEpcotPals! Welcome to the big Epcot 30th funtime Update, and indeed-a funtime was had! Lots to get to-so get on to it!

EPCOT

-First of all, the infamous merch line that was like three hours. I honestly don't get what they were thinking here. The little shop under SSE was immediately mobbed with people buying any and all merch. And yet most locations only had paltry amounts of merch (But plenty of the day-only shirts) and Mousegear was just mobbed with only a light line area planned, while they scrambled to plan on the moment what to do with it. I heard several stories from the craziness inside but I don't understand why they underestimate the own thing they plan all this merch for. It wasn't planned BADLY, but I surmise the entire event like the 25th: Well planned, but not optimized to mobilize the fans correctly. No set locations for merch, no several lines feeding into the plentiful amounts of registers at MouseGear, events timed strangely, Open edition merch that sells out and isn't restocked. Again, not planned BADLY, just not planned out to correctly handle and and optimize all the people wanting to buy stuff. I mean I only wanted to get the Japan World Showcase shirt but because of them aback at MouseGear not being able to open, I had to search around everywhere. And now I hear they're gone entirely? Very weird.

-The panels were very great, espcially focusing on the people who actually helped build Epcot. I am too ditzy/lazy to say all the great stuff and amazing people/stories-but do read about them online if you can.

-The buttons were great, as were the maps-which the maps were widely available at the end of the night.

-Illuminations tag was amazing. ALL THE FIREWORKS.

-Epcot!

-Crowds were medium to heavy.

-Weather was pretty to rainy

-I hated to see the ellen-attacking sea dinosaur stuck in one position.

-They played the classic music after illuminations, which was great.

-So overall I'd say it was better than the 25th in the amount and quality, and I did not attend the 40th which I heard was a mess. So overall better (With the exception of the awesome 25th gallery) but again, could have been optimized to mobilize fans better, and of course, should tell the people behind the scenes they need to start shaping up and get EPCOT on it's core principals again. And maybe splurge on a new Imagination ride I'd hope.

-OK, that's about all.

-On to the pictures!

-Factoid


Enjoy! ^^
