I can't believe they filled in the lagoon with cement... I wonder if Ariel's Grotto is still there? It wouldn't make much sense without the lagoon, which they should have just kept as a pretty lagoon, maybe just added some statues or something to it... Heck, they SHOULD have just left a Nemo submarine out there for atmosphere. I'm so annoyed with the way they are disappearing "classic" Disney from the park unless it is a hugely famous animated classic...
They should open a Retro-Disney Theme Park... Disney Nostalgialand
The Timekeeper... GONE!!!

I agree, but I will be sad to see it go. It was a nice show to watch as sort of a "break" in between long lines and the summer heat! Im sure theyll put something great in its place when they do decide to close it for good, but I hope the area doesnt go unused for long.Lucylover1986 wrote:I've seen the show. It's ok but there's plenty of better things to do or see than this attraction. I'm sad the carousel of progress is going to go away too. That's a done deal too by the statemnt in the article:
...when the Carousel of Progress also finally rotates its way into oblivion in a year or so.
The Carousel attraction couldn't be around forever anyway since that last stage is already getting eclipsed by new technology.

That's the main problem I have with it. Besides that I'll miss it incredibly, they don't have a very good record of replacing classics with "something great" lately. Also, they can't seem to come up with anything that isn't inspired by an animated film. I'm a huge animation fanatic and love attractions inspired by animated films, but Tomorrowland used to be really original and clever, without relying on films. A few I can see, okay, but now they're not even going for sci-fi themed films. I mean, Monsters Inc?

They'll do that.
A couple years ago, I went to a flea market and found a practically new copy of one of the old EPCOT Center souvenir VHS videos and had to get it (even though I hate to buy VHS now). What a trip that was to watch, since it was from the 80s! I wish they would sell a collection of those souvenir vacation videos in a DVD set for those of us who want to remember.
