Again, I don't think it really matters. Grand Avenue in HS is nothing more than Baseline Taphouse and Hydraulics now. They could put in a more permanent food/drink kiosk similar to Hydraulics behind the theatre and next to the restrooms and call the area "Oceanic" or whatever.
Everything matters.
Alright then. It matters that Nemo is based in Australia, not Tropical Americas. It matters that it's closer to Asia and could be incorporated into Asia. Just call the walkway "The EAC" for the theatre only being in-between. The walkway could have items on it to signify being on a current between Asia and Tropical Americas. Done.
Would it be adventurous to move Wilderness Explorers to Tropical Americas? Or make it a Wilderness Explorers Theater? Then transition to Paradise Falls closer to Tropical America mainland?
We're getting into "Imagineering" now. You have fun speculating.
Brilliant. This needs to happen.
We could plug the bones of Soarin' into a million use cases, this is one...(also Magic Carpets, Peter Pan, etc).
You joke but you make a good argument. If we're just armchairing at this point it wouldn't exactly feel out of place to do just that. Especially if they were to lean into an S.E.A. themed land. A concept they were so close to perfecting before pulling the plug. Making the theater a more generalized Adventure theme, based on S.E.A. would allow them to inject non-IP attractions as well, a needed return.I heard that they're moving the Adventure's Club into the Nemo theater.
It's the perfect pairing for Indiana Jones, and it would be a MONEY MAKER for the park if they made it into a ADR or tapas bar.
Odd take, why would they not need Nemo?
Not a lot of great options. I think Encanto (pink) would take away any possible expansion in that direction... In theory you could bulldoze ROL seats and expand into the lagoon a little (red). Finally you could build another bridge to the base of Everest but you would be in it's shadow.
It was Walt’s original park so it’s fair to say that.
With zootopia, Encanto, the carousel and Indy open I could see that being a good time to retire Nemo. DAK doesn’t necessarily need 3 live theatre shows.
Understood. However, I grew up going to WDW and didn't visit DL until I was 26. Maybe of the rides I came to love at WDW we're instantly downgraded in my mind, making me kinda mad. The appreciation for the 'little' park in the middle of Anaheim went up considerably. I'm not belittling MK at all, or mad at anyone, just disappointed.
