You and the pho are both wrong.@The Pho sums its up well. Epcot Forever is the Epcot Eulogy.
The 2020 show is the new direction of Epcot. Fantasy and IP no more Worlds Fair-esque.

Even the discovery aspect will be gone if the new show is any inclination. It looks like it will have incredible tech but completely Disney movie driven should be at a castle park or the studios.

Its my opinion not wrong.
Maybe because this is my generation seeing Epcot, I always interpreted it as “Disney’s discover park” and not as a showcase of technology like the worlds fairs were. That aspect was gone around the time I was born. Everything I’ve seen coming forth still aligns with the idea of “discovery” that I’ve associated with Epcot. Again I think the “eulogy” is a gross exaggeration but only time will tell how this show and Epcot forever will be
It isn't that I am massively attached to the original Epcot idea, but I like that all the parks are different and Epcot is something you'll never see anywhere else. I don't see how they can make IPCOT without it feeling weird and it becoming a mishmash as you say.I think it's just a clear message that the Epcot we all have known is no more and Disney acknowledging that they will be completely moving on from its original and reworked concept. They have a different plan for the future of the park and this show seems to be the final sendoff before the entire park is reworked the way they reworked MGM. So I see the temporary show as the Eulogy for what was before and the permanent show as the rebirth for what we can expect.
I'm barely old enough to have just caught the end of Epcot Center, and while I liked it, I'm not quite attached to it as many that experienced it in full. But to me this seems very similar to the situation at MGM where the park lost its identity and is largely a thematic mishmash.
I don’t believe that’s the official name just a description.So we have a name for the long-term Illuminations replacement, right?
"A Celebration of Disney Music"
I for one am excited! 2 new epcot shows... i bet the temporary show will be mostly aerial-based while the permanent show will be a worthy successor to ROE. I love illuminations but it is time... tech has come a long way in 20yrs, we will all be impressed when it debuts.
Its my opinion not wrong.
Yep the writing has been on the wall for a while, the tipping point was frozen, and now the carts going downhill full speed.Its also, almost certainly correct to anyone who has at all been paying attention to the direction disney has been headed.
The more and more I thought about it, it made me realize: it’s time. Whether or not we care to admit it it is time to change out illuminations. I had a thought that I’m keeping to myself out of fear of being attacked over my outlook on the situation which made me realize more and more it’s time to update. But like I said, more power to anyone whose judging the new show based solely off of four preliminary pieces of concept artI for one am excited! 2 new epcot shows... i bet the temporary show will be mostly aerial-based while the permanent show will be a worthy successor to ROE.
