We’ve saved up for 10 years to go to Disney World for three days and now the honorable Governor desantis wants to turn it in to a penitentiary. Hell, that might not be so bad. I could be the warden and you could be the naughty inmate. Can your sister come along? Ain’t it amazin what Republican governors can come up with to make Merka great agin?

all of Epcot is just not that interesting.

Time for Disney to announce the development of a New Disney World... someplace outside the south. New Mexico possibly. Or the Bahamas. Hell, even Cuba (long past time to normalize relations with Cuba)... or Puerto Rico... they could use Disney tourist money.

Much like Vegas is really stage props (all those hotel/casinos are built to be destroyed in 20 years), it's time to Disney to invest in a new Disney World.

The Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow is undergoing one now, but we will never set foot in Florida as long as the fascists are still in control.

EPCOT is in the middle of a massive, historic, multi-year transformation, and it's all coming toward an end. Yes, the construction walls will come down by the end of 2023!

Over the past couple of years, we've seen major progress with EPCOT's evolution. France expanded with the addition of Remy's Ratatouille Adventure and Le Crêperie de Paris in October 2021. In summer 2022, the toadally awesome Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction debuted!

2023 marks the end of its transformation with Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana, opening late 2023. World Celebration will also be completed in late 2023 with a new statue of Walt Disney in an area called Dreamers Point and a new exhibition space called CommuniCore Hall. Other changes in 2023 will be a new nighttime spectacular in honor of the Walt Disney Company's 100th anniversary. Plus, you'll be able to meet our favorite purple dragon, Figment, starting summer 2023! Read on to learn more about these big changes coming to EPCOT!
