As we speak is Disney+ Day and the celebration of the streaming service’s second birthday has introduced with it a variety of cool stuff. A bunch of latest content material has arrived on Disney+ itself, an enormous variety of the service’s upcoming content material has been teased, and even the theme parks have been getting in on the action. However a few of the mnaterial added at the moment to the Disney+ library really makes me surprise if a change is on the horizon for a theme park attraction at Walt Disney World.
Walt Disney World’s Epcot has a theater, the Magic Eye Theater, that’s at present the house of the Disney & Pixar Quick Movie Competition. Friends get to look at three animated shorts, which embody Pixar’s Piper and Disney’s Feast and Get a Horse. The Pixar quick has been out there on Disney+ for a while, however the two Disney shorts have been a part of at the moment’s Disney+ Day content material drop, which means now all three of the shorts you possibly can see at Epcot might be discovered on Disney+.
Contemplating meaning you can now watch all of the shorts within the Quick Movie Competition in your cellphone when you’re ready in line for the Quick Movie Competition, there isn’t essentially a motive to take the time to look at the shorts after you’ve spent the cash to be inside Epcot for the day, so maybe that implies that the Epcot theater is due for a refresh.
It’s clear that to some extent the Magic Eye theater in Epcot has been in a holding sample for a number of years already. When Epcot first opened, the theater was used for an authentic present known as Magic Journeys. That present was finally changed by Michael Jackson’s Captain EO, after which by Honey, I Shrunk the Viewers. Captain EO returned to the theater in 2010 as a tribute after the death of Michael Jackson.
The Disney & Pixar Quick Movie Competition took up residence on the finish of 2015 and has been there since. They’re achieved as 4D reveals, with 3D visuals and different results, so there’s something extra than simply the quick itself, however I don’t really feel like that’s sufficient of a draw to get individuals to see the identical shorts they’ll see at residence.
It looks like the truth that two of those shorts haven’t been on Disney+ earlier than could also be as a result of they have been a draw at Epcot. Now that they’re not, perhaps we’ll see some modifications. There are definitely different shorts that also aren’t on Disney+ that might transfer in. Or perhaps there’s hope for a brand new authentic present.
No matter occurs, the Epcot theater is due for a change of some variety, much more so after Disney+ Day, so I wouldn’t be shocked to see that occur someday very quickly.
