Epcot Future World 1987

[@DreamportProductions]

While the entirety of the video looks amazing, I personally am geeking out hard seeing a good portion dedicated to the Centorium gift shop. This is probably the best footage I’ve seen of this rarely documented piece within EPCOT Center.

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

I'm happy you enjoyed it. Being a shopper, I've always thought the stores at Disney parks were attractions too, at least to me, and worth documenting. 😁

[@ResortTV1]

Wow! This is such an amazing video! You truly hit all the highlights in the park back then, and the fact that it’s almost in Vlog style makes it really fun to watch! Thanks for sharing!!

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

Thank you so much!

[@definingdisney]

This is insane quality for 1987! Thank you for posting! 😁

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

Thanks!

Those were the good days of the old and spectacular Epcot Center!!!!!! How I miss it!!!!

[@imaginationstationyt6948]

An amazing time capsule of a video. Thanks for posting. Figment really deserves a ride that does him justice and I believe Classic EPCOT gave him that along with so many other amazing rides and attractions. :D

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

Couldn't agree more!

[@PaulAdler11]

I miss Horizons every day of my life. Thanks so much for preserving a little piece of it. Love old Epcot!

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

Glad you enjoyed it! All of us who remember it miss it. Old Epcot had it's special charm and magic.

Holy smokes what camera did you use to record this and the World Showcase video? The quality is absolutely incredible! Thanks for sharing this. My first visit was in 1986 and ive been going on and off ever since.

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

I was using an early Sony 8mm Digital8 Video Camcorder. The image has been digitally processed Topaz Video Enhance AI to cut down on some of the video noise early camcorders produced. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@JustinKoehn]

@@michaelsiebielec5554 it’s fantastic. Thanks again for the amazing footage

[@that70space]

This is amazingly sharp resolution for '87. I think this may very well be the best quality Horizons on youtube. Nicely done.

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

Wow, thanks! 21st century video enhancement works wonders.

[@kef103]

I have a pretty good vhs of this as well i should upload it

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

Definitely, as we fans can keep the memory of the classic attractions alive with our videos.

[@RWM07001]

World of Motion and Figment really were special. I hope Figment gets an imagining to mirror original.

Where's my boy Captain EO?

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

I had just seen it at Disneyland so I didn't spend time on it at Epcot. A great 3D attraction but I think I enjoyed the Honey I Shrunk the Audience more.

[@Mechasonicrocks]

@@michaelsiebielec5554 I preferred Captain EO, ESPECIALLY considering how Dr. Channing from "Honey, I Shrunk The Audience" ended up overtaking the OG "Journey into Imagination" and making it darn near insufferable. At least with EO you didn't have the 3D show carry over into the pavilion's main attraction.

[@themaxcollective]

it is wicked and foolish that so many original EPCOT attractions were not preserved with the expanse of land - one of the main reasons for the Florida project and another reason - the original EPCOT concept - never realized hardly mentioned least they could do

Amazing, not one obese person in sight yet.

[@BobbyBoca]

Where can I find the full version of the music you had playing for the intro on this video

[@andrewpriester6994]

The same year you guys went to WDW is the year me & my family went to Disneyland The first time we went to WDW was in December 1994

[@themaxcollective]

I want to go to the Imaginarium

[@rebeccav4659]

Thank you for this😍😍😍😍

[@MsDisneylandlover]

I was born n 84 ❤

[@BobbyBoca]

Thank you for this video , brought me right back to the good days of Epcot …

[@jlf8570]

That was awesome to watch. What great memories from a simpler time. I was 17 that year and had one of my favorite trips ever to EC. I was looking hard for me or my girlfriend and friends. Thank you so much for posting this.

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jenrao9548]

So many memories triggered in this vid! Especially the dog wagging its tail in the living room scene :)

[@wdwexploreandchill]

This is GOLD to me! My senior year when my bestie and I would skip school and come to the parks… it was awesome and this was so fun to watch. Thank you for sharing! 💜

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

So glad it brought back memories.

[@asteroid385]

[@michaelsiebielec5554]

Glad I could help relive the feeling.
