http://www.attractionchecklist.com - This episode John and I take in the Epcot's new Nighttime Spectacular - Epcot Forever! Filled with nostalgia, will this get a high rating? Tune in and find out! Recorded on January 13, 2020. TRANSCRIPT: Welcome to Attraction Checklist. Let’s head to Walt Disney World’s Epcot tp see the new, temporary, Nighttime Spectacular Epcot Forever.  The guide map describes the show by saying, “Journey through the past, present and future of Epcot at this fireworks spectacular.'  Since this is a show there are no height requirements for it and FastPass+ is available. 1. In September 2018, it was announced that Illuminations: Reflections of Earth would be having its final run at Epcot before a new show debuts in 2020.  It was also announced that a temporary nighttime spectacular called Epcot Forever would bridge the gap between Illuminations and the new show.  Illuminations Reflections of Earth, which we covered on episode 83 of Attraction Checklist, closed forever on September 20, 2019. Epcot Forever debuted the very next night, on Epcot’s anniversary, October 1, 2019. 2.  Epcot Forever features all new arrangements of classic Epcot songs by conductor and composer Don Harper. 3. The score for Epcot Forever which includes classic songs like ‘One Little Spark’, “Living With The Land” and “Veggie Veggie, Fruit Fruit’ was recorded by a full orchestra at Abbey Road Studios in London, England. 4. Epcot Forever features fireworks, lasers and lights, just as Illuminations did but also adds in what Disney calls ‘special effects’ kites.  Large kites with light up tails that are pulled through the air by jet skis on the World Showcase Lagoon. 5. Epcot Forever is scheduled to have its final performance sometime in 2020. Let’s go experience Epcot Forever.  With me this time is John B. deHaas and after the show we’ll give you our thoughts on it.  This is a binaural recording so if you have headphones put them on now as we head to Walt Disney World to see Epcot Forever at Epcot!

It is time for Attraction Checklist to visit EPCOT in Walt Disney World and bid a fond farewell to the nighttime spectacular knows as IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth.  Before IllumiNations ended, the guide map described the show by saying: The World Showcase Promenade comes alive nightly with the brilliance and splendor of music, lights, lasers, water fountains and custom pyrotechnics in our signature nighttime spectacular, IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth.  Since this was a show there were no height or age requirements and FastPass+ was available. Before we gather around the fire one last time, here are 5 fast facts about IllumiNations. 1.  IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth debate at EPCOT in Walt Disney World on September 22, 1999.  This show was a revamped version of the previous IllumiNations shows that was created for the year 2000 Millennium celebration.  When it debuted it was called IllumiNations 2000: Reflections of Earth.  The show proved to be so popular that after the Millennium Celebration ended, the show continued, dropping the 2000 from its official name. 2.  To drive the Millennium Celebration theme home, World Showcase Lagoon was surrounded by 19 torches representing the first 19 centuries of the common era.  At the end of the show, the iconic globe opened and revealed a 20th torch for the 20th century. 3. The show’s signature globe was over 3 stories high and was the world’s first spherical video display system. 4.  The control booth for the show is located above the Mexico Pavilion in World Showcase.  The show uses more than 65 computers scattered around the park on 40 separate locations. 5. On April 9, 2019, the Disney Park Blog announced that after 20 years, IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth would close to make way for new shows.  The show had its final performance on September 30, 2019. Now it’s time to blow out the torches one last time.  I’ll give you my thoughts after the show audio.  This is a binaural recording so if you have headphones, put them on now as we enjoy, for the last time, EPCOT’S IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth!

A Disney era has come to an end with the final performance of IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth. With its exit, Epcot ushers in a new nighttime spectacular, Epcot Forever. We break down the show and share what we loved and give our thoughts on its controversial ending. Plus, details on the recent incident with the Disney Skyliner that left guests stranded for three hours.

We FINALLY visited Pandora in Disney's Animal Kingdom, Toy Story Land in Disney's Hollywood Studios AND Epcot's International Food and Wine Festival - listen in as we take you on our journey through Walt Disney World! We also happened to be in Orlando when Disney opened the brand new Gondola transportation system, The Skyliner; AND closed the 20 year run of Epcot's nighttime show, “Illuminations: Reflections of Earth.”  Lots to unpack, and you get to hear it without the chance of 4pm downpours, heat and humidity! (Unless you live in Florida…) Galaxy's Edge Meet-Up! Sunday, 11/10/19 at 6pm PST: we will take a pic in front of the Falcon, then ride Smuggler's Run.

This episode is my love letter to IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth. On September 30, 2019, I was lucky enough to be in attendance of this Epcot nighttime spectacular's final curtain call.

So grab some headphones, pull up your favorite armchair, and enjoy this bonus episode of Imagineer Podcast, featuring my longest end credit audio ever (a grand exit for a grand show).
