That's going to be a pretty short ride. And all downhill.
Now, that's a shocker.

They have an area around Indy that was cleared to hold a full-size new land before the decade-late “redo“ plans were cut to the bone. They’ve got space.
(Plus TSL is poorly designed and useless, the whole thing should be bulldozed and the space used much more efficiently.)
Doubt there's going to be much to this, considering it happened in 1973.

Interesting, I didn't know that about Indy. Was that supposed to be in the '90s or '00s? Would that involve removing Star Tours too?

It was supposed to be part of the redo that gave us TSL and SWL. In fact, it was where SWL was supposed to be located, with Battu’s current location holding an additional land, the third of the redesign. The parking lots and infrastructure were all rearranged to accommodate the new land. And then cuts. I’m sure their are many folks on these boards who can give you more details!
Responded to this SWL stuff in a more appropriate thread.

Was the name Gloria Allred mentioned?

It's a shame it's not the other side of the park. They could Star Wars theme it like hyperspace mountain in Paris.

Yeah, I get why DAK is (allegedly) next on the list for attention, but DHS should absolutely have more stuff being planned and built right now. Capacity is terrible especially for the crowds that now go there for Galaxy's Edge.

Disney rehired James Gunn after he posted over 10,000 tweets about, well, inappropriate relations with minors. It hired a guy who was jailed for worse behavior to direct The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. I doubt Steve Tyler's alleged actions will faze the miscreants who run and ruin Disney these days...

Ugh, that's disappointing. But maybe they'll get some sense & realize they need to use that space soon.

retheme almost inevitable now with the latest news on Steven Tyler regardless if guilty or not
In other somewhat related news, Aladdin 2 is being done with Will Smith who publicly assaulted someone on live tv but ya know

If this means a re-theme, they already have Flight Force as a template with the R&D complete.
The most important thing, however, is that they do not mess up the tasteful entrance that's in keeping with Sunset Boulevard's design. For those of us old enough to remember, people were worried that this new attraction would destroy the pitch-perfect approach to Tower of Terror. Instead, they ensured that the entrance to RnRC was sufficiently set back from the main "road," and made the entrance archway in keeping with the area's aesthetic. Today, Disney isn't exactly inspiring trust in thematic consistency and sightlines, so...

The Incredibles are the right time period and style...

Disney+ is bringing out a new Electric Mayhem series..This fits it perfectly!
I imagine Bob Iger just interrupts it at the end ala Fraser in Revenge of The Mummy, taking credit for the good parts and blaming the rest on people who disagreed with him.
All you hear is "Going dowwwwwwwwnnnn" from Love in a RollerCoaster
