Rightfully so... if any creature is perfect for a static figure... it's the capybara from Encanto... done in the style of the random armadillo in Tiana (stares at you as you pass by).

That's what I'm wondering too.

Is it possible this is some kind of new hybrid system? That begins dry and is able to dip into a body of water as well? I literally have no idea if this is possible. Just curious if that’s why some have heard omnimover & some have heard boat ride. Maybe it’s both? lol pie in the sky but like??

His only lines in all of the movie's songs are "That's Bruno" and "I think it's everyone in town!" during the very last song, so he doesn't exactly have much singing to use from the movie to say the least.

Let's face it, they never want to give WDW the Best of the Best overseas has and we all know Mystic Manor ride is a sensation overseas. If that alone was a reality for Encanto it be one of the top notch most popular rides! Why can't we get one Manor!

Hybrid attractions that go in and out of water already exist. Mack’ Tow Boat Ride is even available with continuous loading. An actual omnimover, which is more than just continuous loading, doesn’t really make sense as something to drag into water.

I tried to figure out approximately how large the Encanto show building is.
A = Carousel
B = Restaurant (previously Restaurantosaurus)
C = Fountain
D = Indiana Jones entrance
E = Shops (previously Chester & Hester's)
F = Encanto entrance
G = Encanto extended queue ?
The building is cut off on the left side of the model, but the top has a short green wall on the roof, so I assume that this is actually the end of the building. This is about in line and parallel to where the Dinosaur show building starts.
The white area on the map below is where the Encanto show building would go as seen on the model. This is almost 1.75 acres and that is about the same size as the Dinosaur show building. On the top there are some backstage buildings in the way, but on the left side it lines up nicely with a parking lot.

Is Charita Carter leading up this project? She clearly thought they had something they could conjure up that was better than

Here is what the back stage buildings are. Not sure they needed a building that big for Dinoland show quality.

Will Dinosaur still be open in mid-July next year? Any guesses?

No (in my opinion). I think T-Spin will be gone before the end of the year and dinosaur will close between March-May of next year.

Josh seemed to imply they were going to try and keep Dino open for a little bit while site work starts on Encanto. Now, how long?

If they aren't changing the ride mechanics at all - which it doesn't seem like they will - or the structure of the ride building, then this could be a pretty fast addition. As a comparison, it took 16 months to convert ToT to Mission Breakout in DCA and this is kind of similar, though will has more physical sets to install.
16 months was also Splash -> Bayou's conversion time, and I believe Maelstrom was around there too. Seems to be the usual time for a Disney retheme.

Is the new carousel *technically* WDI's first original attraction in over a decade?
I mean it has a storyline that isn't based on any particular piece of IP...

Closest depiction I can find is from the Temple of the Foliated Cross/World Tree
"At the portal of the Temple of the Cross, we see a variant of the World Tree. This cross-shaped Tree, with the Serpent Bar of kingship entwined in its branches and the Celestial Bird standing on its crown, was the central axis of the cosmos [the Milky Way galaxy].
Along this axis rose and descended the souls of the dead and the gods called from the Otherworld by the vision rite to talk to human beings. It was the path the Cosmic Monster took as the sun and Venus moved through its body on their daily journeys.
The king himself was the worldly manifestation of this axis, and this emphasized his role as the source of magical power. He was not only the primary practitioner of the rituals that contacted the Otherworld: he was the pathway itself."

The temple itself is still a clear variation of the Rosalila Temple as I'd mentioned here:

The new art features a monolith which resembles those found in Copan:
News - 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom
Image of the temple mock-up. No forbidden eye. No crystal skull. There is something at the top though. Looks like a beast with a huge open mouth... and ears. But in the concept art it's red. Seems odd. Googling "Myan Red Temple" led to this: Looks the same. It's called Rosalila...
