Saw a guy on a bike that looked enough like Stephen King I wondered, but not enough like Stephen King to risk asking him.

The main concourse of Nexus colony was filmed EPCOT’s Living Seas pavilion. Here’s some vintage photographs of “Sea Base Alpha”, as it was known to park guests during the time of filming:

the most recent season of the x-files was what you'd call a mixed bag, which is still better than the bag of dog shit before it in 2016, but it does contain one of my favorite eps which has this bitter little conversation that i think about a whole fucking lot lately

Shoutout to the couple with the Kingdom Hearts wedding in an EPCOT sponsor lounge where Michael York filmed his scenes for seaQuest. Living how some of you think I do.

Photograph of a table setting for a wedding held in the Seas Salon at EPCOT. The centerpiece is a square lantern with the Heartless and Nobody logos visible. Soft, warm lighting is visible out of focus on the walls and ceiling in the background.

As we said, Nexus Colony was filmed on location at The Living Seas in Epcot. @bioreconstruct.bsky.social recently shared a lot of pictures of an event at the Salon, used for the administrator's office Alexander Bourne occupied: bsky.app/search?q=fro...

Photograph of buffet tables set up in the Seas Salon at EPCOT, showing the pleated ceiling, a gigantic mounted fish on the far wall, and so very much wood paneling.
