Title: 80s EPCOT
Post by: SubmarineHallucination on March 25, 2022, 02:32:53 PM
Anyone here an 80s Epcot fan? I unfortunately never got see Epcot in its prime but I’m absolutely fascinated by it! My favorite attractions from early Epcot are Astuter Computer Revue, Journey into Imagination, Horizons, World of Motion, and Cranium Command

Figment is still one of my top 3 Disney characters.

I also never got to go-too young-but my Mom did! I have a handed down Figment shirt. I believe that's the one that still has the twin towers on it? Also have a mickey shirt from that time with the old Soviet Union flag. Fun to see from the time.

My husband is. Neither of us went until the late 90's and early 2000's, but he is a big Disney buff. He loved Horizons. All the Future World stuff at that time was great.

80's Epcot was awesome! Recently I found a bunch of old family photos from Disney in the 80's & it was nice to have that trip down memory lane. I haven't been to Epcot in almost 10 years now, though I'd love to go back.

I never got to go there, but I would have loved to have seen it in the 80's in person.

I went to Disney World just before the pandemic but I didn't see much of Epcot.  It was looking kind of run down at the time.  I was more interested in Galaxy's edge.  The Millennium Falcon is just awesome.  If you ride solo, you can go over and over again in a short period of time.  I also loved Rise of the Resistance.  It was always breaking down because there are so many different parts and actors involved but it was so incredible and I don't even like the last few movies.

Epcot in it's prime sounds wonderful though.  I honestly didn't believe in Disney Magic until I went to Disney World and now I know that Epcot would had been an amazing event.
