    If there’s one thing I can count on its Mammoth Club doing an in depth review of something. Just thinking about Molly’s possible words about Luminous made me tear up. You both get it. Thanks for doing what you do.

    I love the way yall can compare the new EPCOT to the old without getting into the same negativity loop that a lot of creators get into. As a newer Parks fan I don’t have the connection with the old way the park was and EPCOT is still personally my favorite park. I appreciate yall not getting into the “IP doesn’t belong in this park” or “why are there thrill rides” debates that fuel a lot of other Disney content people.

      I couldn't agree more. The negative tones that a lot of other creators use are lost on me as a newer parks fan, too. I always prefer positive comparisons as Disney has something for everyone but doesn't have to be everything to everybody.

    I used to work at World of Coke in Atlanta so here are some fun facts I learned about Ms Beverly when I worked there. Beverly is actually discontinued and is only made for the tasting experiences at World of Coke and Epcot. Beverly was designed to be a palate cleanser and you're actually not supposed to drink it! You're supposed to swish it in your mouth and then spit it out. However, I'm not sure if that improves the experience.

My life is overun by animation, it is my favorite form of tv or movies, along with my dream to be an animator because of Disney and my love for art is deeply rooted in these films and like I cannot be more grateful to what he has done for me and so many.

    I first went to EPCOT on… Oct. 1, 1982, opening day. Actually since we were staying at the Contemporary we got to go in and preview it the day before. Nothing was open except the gift shop at the front, but I recall all the landscapers frantically laying out sod and flowers to get it ready for the next day. I still have an unused Epcot opening 3-day ticket, I think it was about $90 back then.

    We were there for the opening night and got to say hi to Molly and Alan. Luminous was amazing I loved all the incorporating of the different countries and the overall story behind it. I liked that it was something that you didn’t have to have a perfect spot to view it since there weren’t any projections like harmonious too. So cool to get to be there opening night and definitely wander to go back to see the gardens and Walt statue when it’s not so crowded!

    Hey Molly and Alan, it was so so lovely to meet you that day (I was the sparkly person you met in the Moana section 🙈) meeting you both made my day - thanks for always bringing us these amazing videos. My first impressions of the fireworks is that I prefer Harmonious just because I feel like I preferred the songs and it was a bit more upbeat but I need to watch it again. As a non ride person, I love the Moana section and I defo missed some of the things you showed (despite going in there about 6 times on our trip) so will be more thorough next time ♥️ xxx

    I really love this new update for EPCOT. I can't disagree more with the people that think this time should've been spent on another new ride. EPCOT has gotten 2 brand new rides in the last 3 years alone, and I think this park specifically was in dire need of more sitting space. This new area seems like it brings a nice sense of community to the park that I think Walt would've loved.
    My only gripe is the placement of Walt's statue. I hope they make some changes in the future so that Spaceship Earth can be seen better from that angle.

    I was an intern at Cosmic Ray's 20 years ago and wasn't ready for how much Disney has changed. I thought that during the last week of January I wouldn't need Genie + for this park. I was dead wrong. There are too many popular rides for this park to be as laid-back as it used to be. The lines were so long that I didn't get to experience the World Showcase, which is my favorite part of Disney. I told my husband that I want a quick weekend getaway next year for my 40th. I WILL be getting Genie + from now on.
