The biggest question in this area is not what would cause Universal to completely relinquish the Marvel rights, but what would be necessary to give up the exclusive rights to Marvel east of the Mississippi. As it stands, Universal is sort of in stasis with the Marvel section. They really...

Could it become 100 offices with private bathrooms, meetings spaces, cafeteria, etc. so that the infrastructure behind Animation Courtyard could be demoed instead?

Hear me out - when a certain contract expires at Universal, this would be a perfect area for The Simpsons if Disney so desired. Take in the whole courtyard, all the way up and including Rock N Roller Coaster and the Cars show. Build a street leading straight from the arches to Rock N Roller...

New question that occurs to me - there are currently around 407 (or 409) cabins at Fort Wilderness. This is promoting 350-ish cabins. What do we think accounts for the loss of 50-ish cabins? Increased size of the new cabins? Reconfiguring the layout? Additional amenities? Just a strange...

This is intriguing, for several reasons. This seems to be replacing the existing cabins at Fort Wilderness and those pads are close to parking and reception, but far away from Pioneer Hall and the main resort amenities. Does that make this DVC the one with the rooms farthest away from any...

Change out Magic Carpets for The Whirlpool and Cars for Blowfish Balloon Race and you've got a Finding Nemo themed section, to strengthen the Pixar Area. That would now be Nemo, Toy Story, and Ratatouille.

This highlights my problem with the IP strategy, and I hope this is a since discarded concept. Discoveryland has a strong theme already and could be one of the most amazing lands Disney has ever created if they stuck with that theme. Even by just sticking with existing rides they've already...

I have to agree with much of what is said here. I can get behind Moana as part of an Oceania land, bringing in Finding Nemo, so long as there are sufficient animal exhibits. Even an aquarium would be nice to explore a new part of animal life in the park. I also hope that Zootopia never comes...

I agree on the need for a restaurant on this side. This is partly why the rumor of demoing the Innoventions building for seating baffles me. It’s a shame that couldn’t be updated to hold a kitchen. I know remodels are more expensive but something like Space 220 would seem to be a great fit there...

There are a couple of additional wrinkles in the contract where a Disney can’t use the word Marvel in promotion in the parks. So that’s why the store is Super Hero Headquarters instead of Marvel HQ. So definitely no Art of Marvel hotel at WDW, but maybe an Art of Comics hotel.

Does the new festival area being up front and visible mean World Showplace could be razed and open and expansion spot again?

So much this. Kids are a key demographic that always seem to have a dinosaur-loving phase and it’s so surprising Disney doesn’t have an all ages dinosaur dark ride that isn’t scary to cast the widest net possible. Add that and then add more flat rides to Chester and Hester, like a dino...

I think that’s a fair comparison, but the demographic skews a little more to the princess and fairies side. The decor in their current locations is Nutcracker and Fairy Garden.

It is expensive but the slices of cake are huge. Easy to split with 2-3 people.

It’s not just a cake shop, though that is its specialty. It’s an experience, with salads, soups, sandwiches, as well as an afternoon tea. This will be an incredibly popular location once opened.

Given the description, I’m guessing Cake Bake will go in the former ESPN spot, as the bakery becomes a sandwich shop. This is a great fit for the Boardwalk, as their locations here in Broad Ripple and Carmel are both amazing in food and decor.

I've come to the realization that the Play! pavilion is just being put in the wrong park, and were that corrected, it would improve on the surrounding land in each park. To me, you put the Play! pavilion in the Carousel of Progress building in Tomorrowland and you put the Carousel of...

With it being a Marvel-themed drop tower ride and specifically not Mission Breakout, I'm assuming this would be a new build. And with Ant-Man here, I too would hope the WEB mention would not indicate Web Slingers as being an attraction ported over. Could these hints though indicate a...

The eastern component of this really fascinates me. I’ve been trying to figure out if the one map including the eastern parking garage/gateway includes all the property Disney owns in that space or just where they would theoretically put a parking garage. If the goal of this whole initiative...

This may solve one problem Disney is having right now (how to produce live action films), but it doesn't solve the other major problem the film industry has because of the pandemic - namely, where to release these films. Disney being able to continue to produce live action films wouldn't really...
