    It does. For the life of me I don't get why they kept Pocahontas and scrapped the Herc segment. They must really hate Herc.

    Corporate milking of the "green" angle?

    That's all I can figure.

    Well, despite your Indy/MGM argument you are FINALLY starting to make sense!!!!

    ; )



    Yeah - RoE was something very special for us. We must have seen it about eight times in 23 days in Orlando.

    Somebody elsewhere said she looks like a strange robot during that rowing sequence.

    I have to agree it looks......odd. Like it has been looped or something because there was not enough animation or something.

    Bring in WOC as is? No. The ideal viewing area is too small, Epcot needs a show that is viewable from all areas.

    I could see them adding miniature versions of WOC throughout the lagoon.

    Even with WoC on the scene, it is still the best show out there. It's grand, emotional, and unlike anything they've done.

    To be honest, it fits the park perfectly, and these days, that's rare.

    Agreed. But you left out the part where EPCOT and RoE gets some love. ;-)

    Fant! needs the help much more than RoE.

    ...But yeah, F! is really rough. RoE just needs most of it's timings tightened, but I hear (and I have seen) that it is MUCH better than what it was in 2005-2007.

    That was me. we have the room in DTD believe it or not, i just don't think it's a man-made lake. I think it would work really well here because we also have plenty of room for viewing the show
