DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

[KDM31091]

I think Dinosaur itself is safe until the new year. Perhaps the rest of the land would close prior to that, but as others noted, they haven’t even set up equipment yet

Dinosaur has been noticeably busier lately with FOMO people, plus it seems crazy to close and lose the capacity before the holidays in a park with already not enough to do.

Dino isn’t closing until 2025.

Any word on whether there'll be any animals in the new Tropical Americas land?

Last I heard: yes. Still expecting Capybaras and no jaguars.

Yes, but it's the WHEN in 2025 that concerns me.

Land or Saur?

Saur. TriceraTop Spin will devastate its two fans before Christmas, last I’d heard.

The one thing i am sad about with dinorama is the destruction of the giant “cement-o-saurus”. I wish he couldve been put outside the gates as a sign. Maybe paint him green and put “disneys animal kingdom on the side of his body with the head sticking out?

At the entrance to a park with no dinosaurs?

Well, he can advertise something. Put goofy on his neck riding him and make him an adventures by Disney ad.

Maybe they’ll grind him up into the pavement for the Encanto queue. He will be a fossil fuel in no time!

Stick him peeking into an animal kingdom lodge room of some poor family secretly overnight as a goof.

They’re tourists. They’ll think he’s a giraffe.

Question though, around when did DINOSAUR get its cult classic status?

Ah, the cartmanland effect. I did kinda notice that bears started getting more love by fans post #savethejamboree too. You don’t know what you have until it’s gone (or rumored to be, in some attractions cases).

Is a shame it took that long, because dinosaur is a rad ride.

Hot take: the case with maelstrom. WHO CARED about it until it was gone? Don’t even get me started on Ellen’s energy adventure. Anyone who says they genuinely was a big fan of it is a liar. It’s ok to be a fan of it post closure announcement, but don’t pretend you were always a fan.

Us as fans always think our favorite thing is untouchable until it isn't. History has shown us again and again that no matter how we feel about a ride it doesn't matter. What we think is untouchable almost never is. They removed the signature attraction in the icon of DHS, Mr. Toads, 20k. Nothing has ever been untouchable and it never will.
