Originally Posted By HokieSkipper <<No, Mars... Remember, this is no longer training...We are on a Mars Base. >> Right. But that's not what i was saying. If we have the ability to telport from one planet to another, why the heck are we using a shuttle to get to Mars?

You'd see yourself blast off out of the windows. Also, the "Shuttle to Mars" idea could be backed up by the fact that we are bringing supplies, or some other reason. The fact is, that't not important. M:S is great as it is, but if EPCOT really wanted it to knock it out of the park (Hah. Pun.) they would make M:S a REAL trip to add to the experience and how the future is perceived.

BUT ... that was because Disney actively spent the 00's trying to kill it. It did indeed have plans for the area ... take a look at T-Rex or the fast food chicken joint coming in ... or the Mexican place that opened and is almost always empty when I walk by ... if you wonder what the plans were. Economy tanked. Plans fell thru. That doesn't mean anything comes back. Just means Disney is desperate to get some action into the area that resembles a mall that's gone bad. Now ... EPCOT? Was one of the bois actually trying to say it's better now than it was 20 years ago? I'm hungry, so I'll argue that absurd point later ... unless I get a better offer.

Innoventions is just dead space. The music, and basic feeling of EPCOT is gone. Need I go on? At least other parks still retain MOST of their classics, and what originally made that park so great. EPCOT only has two of those left. SSE and LwtL. << You forgot to rag on Nemo! That's not like you EE!

Originally Posted By MPierce If TDO is desperate to get some traffic in that area, all they would have to do is have a trial reopening of the Adventures Club, and go from there. Without vigourous promotion, and a team that is actually interested in boosting that area, it will remain like a dead zone. I will never understand how Disney could take such a unique attraction like the AC, and let it die on the vine.

With the cast salaries you have to sell a lot of alcohol each night to make it work. Same with the Comedy Warehouse for that matter. I usually only had time for one drink while I was watching one of those show.
