    Pirates of the Caribbean Auctioneer/Redhead Changes NO POLITICS or SOCIAL ISSUES, PLEASE!

    They're stealing and pillaging.. but for some odd reason, still seem strapped for cash, hence they're holding a civilized auction.. as pirates do.. :rolleyes::rolleyes: selling their stolen goods to the current town that they are pillaging and burning to the ground. lol.

    EPCOT Brazil is the frontrunner for a new World Showcase Pavilion

    Yes, everyone's entitled to their own opinion. Everyone has their own influences and are passionate about different countries and cultures. Based on your background, I see why you would be excited for the Brazilian pavilion.

    EPCOT Brazil is the frontrunner for a new World Showcase Pavilion

    Architecture is a reflection of culture and history, and I understand it's not all about architecture, but most countries' distinguishing icons would be monuments and structures. The Eiffel Tower, the Colosseum, the Taj Mahal, Itsukushima (or any temples in Japan, China, Thailand, etc), the...

    EPCOT Brazil is the frontrunner for a new World Showcase Pavilion

    When I think of Brazil, I think of Christ the Redeemer, and the beach. There are beaches in many countries, even the ones in Epcot now, which are not represented. Soccer is popular in most European countries as well, I'm Italian, so I would associate soccer with Italy amongst many other European...

    EPCOT Brazil is the frontrunner for a new World Showcase Pavilion

    :joyfull: Aren't we all Mounties, hanging out with beavers, moose, and bears, drinkin' beer? eh? lol. I'm from Toronto, so I guess I'm disconnected from that sentiment.

    I agree. I wouldn't say that Norway and Italy have anything in common, and they are both in Europe.

    EPCOT Brazil is the frontrunner for a new World Showcase Pavilion

    True. Point taken. It's probably because most of these countries are very iconic, or were powerhouses of the world at some point in history. Also the variety of popular cuisine from these 5 European countries makes for successful restaurants. They are all quite different, and I wouldn't say...

    EPCOT Brazil is the frontrunner for a new World Showcase Pavilion

    Or, why not make Portugal? Brazil was a Portuguese colony, after all. Portugal's whimsy and ethereal setting already looks like it belongs right in Disney. Pena Palace, I'm lookin' at you! They can really play off of the Age of Discovery, and sea exploration...

    EPCOT Brazil is the frontrunner for a new World Showcase Pavilion

    Brazil seems like an odd choice. There are much more iconic countries that would be on the top of the list, before Brazil, in my mind. (no offense to any Brazilians) India would visually stand out amongst the current pavilions, making an interesting addition, as someone mentioned already...

    EPCOT Brazil is the frontrunner for a new World Showcase Pavilion

    Agreed. I'm from Canada, and I never go to the Canadian Pavillion. Isn't the whole point of Epcot to explore other places, and learn about different cultures other than your own?

    Pirates of the Caribbean Auctioneer/Redhead Changes NO POLITICS or SOCIAL ISSUES, PLEASE!

    She needs to be a pirate for girls to want to buy her merchandise? I'm a woman, and I think she's fantastic the way she is. She's clearly in on the joke, that's what makes it so cheeky. She's using her sexuality to her benefit. I view her as an empowered female, wench and all. Why does she now...
