Really enjoyed Craig and Steve's two shows about the World Showcase pavilions. Thought I would give my rankings and see what others thought. Overall, I agreed with Craig's point in that I don't really dislike any, but here is probably what I'd say:
#1 France: Has options for quick service and table service. Really enjoy the attraction Impressions de France. The Ratatouille attraction will only increase this in my mind as it is my favorite Pixar film.
#2 UK: I really enjoy both the Fish and Chips quick service option as well as Rose and Crown. Always good entertainment and I love the EPL Soccer merchandise, even if it is tough being an Arsenal fan right now.
#3 Morocco: I really like the quick service here and there's two solid table service options. I love how immersive it is walked further back and exploring the options.
#4 Germany: I agree with Steve that I wish there would be an attraction here. But I do love getting a German beer and I love the table service buffet for the whole environment you get. Also hard to go wrong with some of the shops getting chocolate or Christmas decorations.
#5 Japan: I've eaten at the table service restaurant here once and like it, also like the shopping options. Plus some great places to walk around or get a seat and enjoy the atmosphere.
#6 Mexico: Not as much space outside to walk around but love the theming inside. Great margaritas though highly priced, and also really like the attraction since Donald Duck is my favorite character.
#7 Norway: I wasn't thrilled with the addition of Frozen but I do admit I enjoyed it. Good bakery and some interesting architecture of the buildings.
#8 United States: It does seem like an extension of Liberty Square to a certain extent, but has a great attraction. Not the best food options but good drink options, and offers some great views.
#9 China: I like the 360 theater show and look forward to the update. Not my favorite food options but some good shopping and a big pavilion to walk around and explore. Also good entertainment.
#10 Italy: I enjoy the architecture but have to admit I've never been to any of the restaurants. Going there might increase Italy on my list but not sure. I think some kind of attraction would be really cool as well, like a Venice boat ride.
#11 Canada: Probably last because I haven't experienced enough of it. I like the fact there is a film attraction but I admittedly haven't seen it. Never eaten at Le Cellier but it sounds great and also expensive. I've never been drawn in by quick service food and drink options. Probably the reason it is lowest is because I've spent the least amount of time here, but visually it is very beautiful.
If EPCOT was to get a new pavilion here would be my list of countries I'd love to see:
#1: Greece
#2: Australia
#3: Spain
#4: Switzerland
#5: Brazil
Any thoughts or other rankings? I'd love to see them!
