Fire Erupts at Disney World's EPCOT in Florida, Remy's Ratatouille Adventure Ride Evacuated
No one was injured in the Saturday evening blaze, which started in a walk-in cooler in an employees-only area, according to local outlets Fox 35 and Click Orlando. Several people took video of the billowing smoke, video of which you can see above.
The fire started around 7:20 p.m. in EPCOT's France Pavilion, according to the reports. The popular ride 'Remy's Ratatouille Adventure' was evacuated because of the smoke and flames, but had since re-opened Sunday.
A cause of the fire had not been disclosed.

Even the most devoted ‘Sex and the City' fans were disgusted and disappointed by ‘And Just Like That' — the Fyre Festival of TV shows
'And Just Like That … ' ended as it started: terribly. I'm not the only 'Sex and the City' fan who thinks so. On Thursday, I attended a small viewing party for the finale of the reboot series with a group of pals who loved the original. Like me, the majority of them were disappointed and, yeah, disgusted. Advertisement 6 Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw at her laptop in the final scene of *And Just Like That … ' HBO 'This is unhinged!' one — dressed as actress Lucy Liu from her 2001 'SATC' cameo — shouted as a shockingly gross scene played out. 'Over twenty years of watching this show, and this is what we get?' What could have provoked such a response? Advertisement Thanksgiving dinner at Miranda's apartment, when a person named Epcot — yes, Epcot — clogged the toilet. Epcot is a friend of Mia, the hyper-flatulent girl knocked up by Miranda's son, Brady. But the show's writers didn't think it enough to simply tell us about plumbing difficulties. They showed us. For at least 10 seconds, the remains of Epcot's day assaulted our eyes. It was gag-inducing and vile. 6 Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) cleans up a clogged toilet in the finale of 'And Just Like That…' — then commits a disgusting act. HBO (Not even 'Dumb and Dumber' went so far as to allow the results of Jeff Daniel's laxative-induced bathroom ordeal to appear on screen). Advertisement And now, a glamorous franchise built on fashion, friendship and sex will be remembered for actual crap. Remember when fans were so excited for the premiere of 'And Just Like That … ' back in 2021? We were promised more time with the most fabulous friends the Big Apple has ever known. That first episode brought us up to current day for the iconic characters' lives. 6 In the series premiere of 'And Just Like That … ' Mr. Big played by Chris Noth dies of a heart attack. Photograph by Craig Blankenhorn/HBO Advertisement Miranda had gone to grad school, unleashing a barrage of micro-aggressions at her black professor. Charlotte struggled with her tomboy (soon to identify as nonbinary) daughter not wanting to wear a frilly Oscar de la Renta dress. Carrie, responding to current industry trends, fired Samantha as her book publicist; in turn, Samantha cut everyone off and moved to London. We met the 'queer, nonbinary, Mexican Irish diva' Che, who soon added another facet to 'their' lengthy identity cluster: the most insufferable character to ever appear on HBO (or Max or whatever they're calling it these days).. And Mr. Big died from a post-Peloton cardiac arrest. 6 Che (left, played by Sarah Ramirez) was the most insufferable character on the show. Photograph by Craig Blankenhorn/Max It was not an auspicious start. And still, I persevered through the woke morass. Even in this Season 3, as the series tried to extricate itself from the humorless pit of identity politics and limp toward the finish line with unrealistic plot lines and characters, poor acting — and far too much nudity from Cynthia Nixon, who disappeared the real Miranda so she could play herself. How would they land the plane? I joked that maybe they wouldn't. Perhaps, en route to a girls' trip in Portugal, the ladies would all die in a fiery plane crash and put us all out of our misery. That would have been brave and merciful. Advertisement Instead, with Thursday's series finale, we were given a literal pile of crap. 6 The good old days of 'Sex and the City' were edgy, funny and included the wild Samantha Jones, played by Kim Cattrall. Moviestore/Shutterstock Thankfully, HBO Max does not offer the scratch-and-sniff option. The gross-out continued as Miranda, wearing rubber gloves to clean the sewage leak in her bathroom, is surprised by her girlfriend — who she excitedly embraces, rubbing those contaminated gloves all over her beloved's back. Advertisement Instead of 'Awwww,' the room I was in filled with a chorus of 'Ewwww.' 'Take off the filthy gloves!' one friend yelled. It was like the Fyre Festival of streaming TV. 6 In the series finale, Carrie Bradshaw delivered pies to all of her friends on Thanksgiving Day. Craig Blankenhorn/HBO Max Advertisement The show wrapped up with a soulless montage showing the characters in their respective homes, eating the Thanksgiving pies Carrie had hand delivered earlier in the day. Meanwhile, Carrie returned to her massive Gramercy spread solo. She took to her computer, erasing the epilogue of her novel set place in the 1800s — and instead wrote, 'The woman realized she was not alone. She was on her own.' After all that, Carrie ended up single in a home so big it could have eased our city's migrant housing issue. Advertisement Her love story, which drove the entire franchise, became an afterthought. But I did get a genuine laugh courtesy of 'Sex and the City' this week as I watched the new version of 'The Naked Gun.' In the movie, someone mentions Miranda Rights to the bumbling Lieutenant Frank Drebin Jr., ably played by Liam Neeson. He deadpans in response: 'No Carrie writes. Miranda is the lawyer.' And I couldn't help but wonder … if the stars and creators of 'And Just Like That … ' could go back in time and kill the series before it sullied a great legacy, would they? I hope so.

This Iconic Disney World Attraction Just Reopened With New Tech, Scenes, and Thrills—What to Know
Following an extensive refurbishment, Walt Disney World's Test Track has reopened with all new show scenes, on-board narration, vehicles, and queue. The high-speed thrill attraction has been an Epcot staple since 1999, and one of the Orlando destination's most popular rides. And now park goers can race to what Disney has called an all-new 'reimagined experience' that celebrates 'today's innovation while highlighting the past, present, and future.' The new Test Track is a collaboration between General Motors and Walt Disney Imagineering. Riders will first walk through a queue featuring six distinct exhibits that 'celebrate the vehicles—and people behind the vehicles—that push the envelope and help get people to our next chapter in our motion journey.' On display are futuristic, concept cars. Once on board, riders will journey through various show scenes that depict 'technological advances and how our lifestyles and relationships to mobility connect everyone.' The attraction taps into the spirit of the open road while showcasing the unique vantage point of how vehicles 'see' the world around us. To create this effect, Walt Disney Imagineering utilized over 29,000 points of light. And fans need not worry: The popular scenic outdoors portion where riders are thrust to an exhilarating 65 miles per hour remains. Guests will then exit into a sprawling Vehicle Showcase displaying the latest innovations from General Motors. The newly-refreshed ride also pays tribute to the early days of Epcot and its legacy. Longtime visitors will notice an all-new musical score featuring the 'It's Fun To Be Free,' theme song for World of Motion, the attraction that once occupied the space where Test Track sits today. And its exterior has also been given a refresh, inspired by the original pavilion's design. Test Track will operate with a standard queue and a single rider line. The attraction is also available to book through Disney World's paid expedited line system, Lightning Lane Multi Pass. Walt Disney World is currently celebrating 'Cool Kid Summer' with new experiences that include two all-new stage shows at Disney's Hollywood Studios, 'The Little Mermaid—A Musical Adventure' and 'Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After,' and a brand-new evening parade at Magic Kingdom Park, 'Disney Starlight: Dream The Night Away.' And later this year, guests can look forward to a brand-new Pirates of the Caribbean-themed tavern, The Beak and Barrel, at the Magic Kingdom Park.
