General Chat / Original Epcot

  • Super_Shadow%s's Photo
    I wonder if they actually made the original Epcot the one Walt made? I heard it would take 50 years to make the glass dome first but it would be neat if they actually made Epcot. I wonder who would do it?

    Not Disney under Eisner, thats for sure. Something that big would take some serious cash and the company seems to be struggling a little in that regard.

    EPCOT, was originally designed to be a neighborhood.

    If they were to build Epcot, and their was still Terrorism in the world. Terrorism = Crash into Epcot = :t2: .

    but the glass dome (from what i heard) it would be very thick and i doubt that it would penitrate it that hard it would have to be going really fast to destroy the glass

    And Pyro, I don't think you've actually looked at Disney's earnings lately... quite the opposite of what you stated.

    Eisner is the reason people came up with the word fuckhead. He has ruined the Disney feeling. I live like 30 mins. from Disney north of the airport and you can tell the parts of Disney world built under Eisner because it looks like crap compared to the rest.

    Okay.

    Two airplanes penetrated the World Fucking Trade Center. They ripped through steel I-beams and framework and bracing.

    And you're saying a giant glass dome (which can't be done yet, btw, unless it's in many parts with a skeletal structure made of steel or more likely carbon nanotubing, and even that's far fetched) would hold up?

    Wow.

    Yeah, it takes something big and fast to break through glass. LIKE A FUCKING AIRPLANE.

    Oooo, Super Shadow was rightfully "burned". :flame:

    Remember, we live in reality, not fantasy...as sad as that is...personally, it would be great if your glass roof acted (successfully) as a giant deflector shield...

    I'm wondering...in the original EPCOT (see Brent's definition), would it support Segways?

    Kai :huey:
