Wed 6/20/2007 8:46a | I hated, hated, HATED Body Wars.
And to think I actually rode it twice.
I am pretty sure that it is the only attraction in all of WDW that I loathed. I am very pleased to hear of its passing and I am looking forward to something in the future. A Poo playground, of all things, would be 10x better. |

I wouldn't want to step foot into a poo playground. :) |

How can anyone dislike a pavilion dedicated in large part TO FOOD!!! ;-)
Seriously, the Land has always been a favorite of mine because it has stuck to the Epcot ideals since the beginning and its actually been plussed over the years rather than minused! |

I've grown to appreciate the Land as I got older. |

Wed 6/20/2007 1:21p | My first thought was thank goodness I got lots of pictures of the interior while I visited this pavallion during my trip to WDW back in December 06. My second reaction is; what a waste of space. Someone was right to bring up the "Poo Playground" arguement. The WoL Pavillion is in an ideal location. Its facing you as you walk into that area. ALL the other Pavallions are off to the sides, UoE, MS, TT. But WoL is facing the core of Future World. So what a huge waste of incredible real estate to just have it dedicated to Partys ( isn't the Odessy location much better suited for partys ?).
Next reaction.... the place is dated. Sure its got some kewl rides, I love Body Wars... its so much better than its sister simulator over at MGM, CC is just plain fun. News flash Erenst isn't making any more moves. So its a classic. Now that being said... .the Pavallion its self is just haunting.... its plain spooky... with this dome thing doing on and that weird chandelier.... I felt like I was in Logans's Run and its rejuvination time! I kept expecting lasers to pop out and shoot me at any moment ( particullary scary for the "over" 40 crowd ). Either that or some psychotic robot freezing everying in site. Its just TOO 70s looking.
Whish gives me a great idea.... it could be like EPCOT's version of the Magic Kingdom's Haunted Mansion. Lets make it a Haunted Pavallion with a 70s space feel to it, killer robots, lasers "rejuvinationg" the over 40s crowd. What a concept. But please, please Disney, don't waste more valuable real estate. |

Tom-
M:S Is really the pavilion that is front and center. WoL is actually tucked back a little off to the side. But I do agree with you that it is a waste of space and the location is strategic to Future World. They really need to build a great attraction here that everyone can ride and that is fully-developed with a full three-acts and good score. It will help fill the gap between the ol' EPCOT Center stalwart, UoE, and the two thrill rides. I would suggest it is not a top priority without an annouced sponser. |
