The Disney Channel+Afternoon Zone (witty name yes) https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/RchwyWR3e3JC5apzLrsn6bmSKW8=/0x0:2040x1360/1320x743/filters:focal(857x517:1183x843):format(webp)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/66797739/jbareham_200408_0988_grids_gargoyles.0.jpg Replacing the WDSP...

Sure thing.

Yes, this may have also been due to differing culture standards or standards in amusement park design at the time; “theme parks” were very new and thus took cues from what standard amusement parks are doing, resulting in a very different experience. This sort of thing can be seen today in some...

There was an attempt at a replacement for Magical Express at least. Don’t know if it will actually be done though.

It’s gotten to the point there will soon be memes about these ancient dark rides, how far we’ve come is insane.

Wile Disney have been shifting from their old “a lot of moderately complex animatronics” method to “one really good animatronic, with other stuff being screens, projections, figures, etc.”, and thus investing a lot in robotics to create their one big star animatronic per attraction (or even...

Yes, that Jimmy MacDonald line has never changed despite not sounding much like Hans Conried, it’s strange that the line has been cut rather than replaced with something closer to the Hans Conried voice on the ODL version.

I think the skull pile might be from the 1960s Peter Pan ride. The 1960s version made it a little more in line with the other two in terms of scare factor, and that may even have been based on David Hall concept art for the film.

If you absolutely had to reimagine Cars 2, what would you do?

Will reviews for the other challenges (9,11,12) still be done?

Disney will own Knott’s, but not do too much to it, let alone IP integration.

Exactly. The coaster nudist colony that is the Boardwalk area is a blight on Knott’s. And yes, classic attractions will be kept.

The BH6 are legally no longer Marvel characters; now fully owned by WDAS, their 616 versions are no longer fully canon or allowed to return, being in the same limbo as Conan the Barbarian, Godzilla, etc.

Given WDSP had already been the worst park, no wonder they’re slapping on so many bandaids onto WDSP!
