The trackless comment, I believe, was in the Guardians Epcot thread and just meant that that ride would not be trackless.

Well I mean the SWL Battle Escape attraction will be trackless...Nope. @marni1971 (I believe) said we will not be getting a trackless ride in WDW.

Sorry to put this to bed as I know a lot of folks want it to be the case (me, too), but my understanding is that IF we get an Indy ride (supposing the next film is more successful than Kingdom was), it will be after this. i.e. the unannounced ride isn't Indy. Maybe my info is out of date, though.
What do you mean by "not here" ? As in not for this next "Phase 2B" attraction?DHS is of course getting a track-less ride, just not here.

I've got to admit that I'm absolutely flabbergasted and confused as to what the theme for this additional ride could possibly be. My most recent best guess was a copy of the POTC ride from Shanghai which would have ticked off all of the boxes about what we know (large family friendly E-ticket, possible would need details to be worked out with the partners in China who paid for development/possibly exclusivity, would generate debate over having a different POTC ride in a different park).... but then @marni1971 indicates that there is not a warter ride being planned, which eliminates that.
Did we definitively rule out Indiana Jones? I'm not sure if it was eliminated, but feel like it was at some point recently. Don't think it would be too controversial of a choice, however, if that were the theme.
So, now I'm thinking more that it is an outside IP. But, if so, I find that absolutely crazy that Disney would spend money to license an outside property when they have so many underused/unused things in house available. I mean, sure, something like LOTR would be potentially cool for a theme park, but Disney has their own medieval/magic type options they could use in that vein (I mean, we've already mentioned having a villains ride in this thread, for example).
I'm so befuddled and intrigued.
I said if it does good in the box officeAlready established not frozen or Pixar so eliminate frozen and finding dory, zootopia to soon and Moana hasn't come out yet so probably neither of those, also said its a new original ride so I wouldn't bank on Indiana jones either granted they can make a new Indian jones I just doubt it. My money is on a new ip
I apologize sorry! I thought you posted that WDW wouldn't be getting a trackless ride :/Wasn't me!
4:Plenty of Synergy. And an E but not thrill.
How's that?
5:As far as I know (which isn't everything I must add) there are no water rides planned for DHS.
6:Original.
7:That's not the theme I've heard.
8:Is that game of thrones? Absolutely not!
9:To nip it in the bud, it's nothing to do with the Universal contract.
Before yet another rumour starts.
10:Thank you. If and when this comes out it will no doubt generate plenty of attention and debate. Hopefully then all will be clear.
Honestly? Both.
I've got what I consider legitimate thoughts and concerns that I think are valid from either angle. To say anymore yet might be too much.
So when you say original does that also mean it can't borrow tech from another ride? So using RSR/Test track but different theme and track?Grief
Wish I could say yay or nay or more but I can't.

Thanks, because if it's going to be an E ticket but not a thrill ride and not water ride that would make you believe it's more like RSR type of experience.In the context in which he said that, he meant it is not a clone or copy of an existing ride.
Almost everything shares tech with something else so that'd be a bit tricky.

Okay, I'm seeing two big issues here, and a stroll through the last few pages of both threads makes those obvious.
People are making speculations off of Martin's words. Then others are turning that speculation into fact or certainty, and making guesses based on those false facts. A great demonstration of how rumors start.
And, just as frequently, people are still pondering over IPs and rides that have already been debunked, like Frozen, MCU Marvel, the Indiana Jones DL ride, etc.
So to hopefully help cut down on both issues, here is the list of clues from the man himself.
1 - an "E-ticket" ride
2 - will create "plenty of synergy"
3 - not a thrill ride
4 - not a water ride
5 - not a clone of an existing attraction
6 - not Frozen
7 - not Game of Thrones
8 - nothing to do with the Universal Marvel contract
9 - will "no doubt generate pkenty of attetion and debate"
10 - on whether it's a good idea, Martin isn't 100% on either side. Sounds like he's somewhere near the middle.
We appreciate and thank Martin for sharing what he's heard. But, as with almost anything, it's always possible that some info is wrong. Or could change. So what I'm basically saying is, don't treat this like the Ten Commandments.
And because I didn't use his exact wording and could be paraphrasing something incorrectly, I linked his comments below.

Well, here are three more guesses:
1. Wicked. Disney has made 2 (lackluster) Oz films. Wicked is hot. So maybe.
2. Remember those rumors not long ago that Disney was going to buy Hasbro? So...The Land of Equestria from My Little Pony? Not much synergy but ohhhhh the merchandising
3. Studio Ghibli?
I hate ALL of those ideas so I hope I'm wrong. Well, maybe not Ghibli, but I'd rather have Poppins or Ralph.
