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

[Disgruntled Walt]

It looks amazing so far.

Better than or equivalent to DL’s in your opinion?

Imagineering said last week they hadn't yet built a physical model of the Indy ride. So I suspect Encanto will be open before Indy.

Does that mean Indy doesn't open by the end of 2027?

More images.

It looks amazing so far.

Okay, I was thinking Indy because Encanto would be a boat ride. So long as they put a lot more effort into it than NRJ then I can see how it would be LLSP.

And more.

They're talking about Encanto, I think.

It always amazing me how stuff like this exists but work of lesser quality is chosen as publicity art.

The new Mayan pyramid will have authentic glyphs that can be read.

It will say: Be sure to drink your Ovaltine.

You're all assuming the current line bypass will remain the same for the next 3-5 years.

I'm sure it will get tweaked and maybe even renamed... However I am very confident of two things:

1) The most in demand ride (or two) at each park will be a separate upcharge
2) Most of the rides will be a time based return time under a separate price

IMO only number 1 is a guarantee. I can see eventually the Premier Pass being the only other option.

I believe the understand now is Encanto is not a boat ride but an omnimover of sorts - but one where their cars are in groups that can travel and pause in sections vs a continuous system

So thing Figment not Haunted Mansion

Yep thats it. Not a boat ride.

Trackless like Rat, Rise, or Runaway Railroad?

Looking to be tracked.

Oh wow, that's kind of unexpected. (In a good way)

In a weird way... Figment ride system is kind of the predecessor to Cosmic rewind omnicoaster...

It also sounds similar to the ride system from the Tokyo Monsters Inc ride
(which is essentially a one sided version of TSM)

3 cars per train, ability to rotate in any direction, speed up, slow down and make show scene stops
