MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

[monothingie]

That's kind of the point - we don't know yet people act like doomsday. We know the last image suggested there is a water barrier. We also know that redoing the waterfront along FL would require some reworking of a ton more stuff.. so what will do they do? The obvious easiest answer is keep it looking like it does now.. like an island or peninsula across the water and across the way from FL.

Maybe it won't be as shocking as some believe it will be.. especially since we have no idea what the actual view will be.

I don't think anyone necessarily has a problem with the aesthetics of the new crap, so long as you don't hear ka-chows and whatever else from the surrounding areas.

I do think that a lot of people are most upset that this couldn't have been an addition rather than a replacement.

I personally think it's going to be the same caliber as TT 3.0. Not great and not terrible.

Quite honestly I question how they can transition to Villains from any land

If it were from Fantasyland, you could have the transition be the dark forest from Snow White. I hope they build some sort of entrance to the land from Fantasyland, because otherwise Villains is a new dead-end! A dead-end that was meant to solve a dead-end problem.

I'm not sure how difficult it would be to reroute the service road that runs from the Tangled bathrooms to Be Our Guest, but it's a possible entrance to the land. Would fit much better thematically, too, since Villains Land is just "Fantasyland but only the bad guys"

I’m not sure you understand what “subtraction” means.

All that new stuff could have been added without bulldozing existing capacity. That’s one of the key reasons Disney made the Florida resort so big!

This.

And one of them was not an “opening”. Little Mermaid is re-opening, an important distinction. They let sit and rot and lost capacity and are restoring it to compensate for the subtraction of MV3D

 

[SamusAranX]

Subtraction - less than
That's why I said in the long term is isn't a subtraction, as at the end of construction, no park will have less attractions than before construction began

So in 15 years Disney world managed not to lose capacity ? Congratulations? What an astounding accomplishment

 

[SamusAranX]

The need for attractions that don’t constantly run at full capacity has been explained repeatedly. Some posters want an utterly miserable park experience.

Does he not remember HS pre-TSL and GE? It’s wait times were even more miserable then now.

 

[WorldExplorer]

People might be more willing to give them the benefit of the doubt if there wasn't a giant ode to hubris right across the pathway.

 

[TheMaxRebo]

What if they make the water barrier more of a rapid? The noise helping to drown out the cars.

in the last write up from Disney they talked about designing to prevent noise bleed - they were specifically talking about by the Haunted Mansion. Not sure if they will have rapids, but waterfalls and geysers and just the rock work can all help with that

If you read my post before that one, I said that there is a minimum of +3 attractions with just these projects. With your 15 years (Not sure when you're starting from so I'll go from 2015) they've also given us as extra capacity: Tron, Space 220, Roundup Rodeo, Ratatouille, Royal Sommerhaus, Sunset Showcase Theater at HS (Lightning McQueen, then Villains), Galaxy's Edge & Toy StoryLand was +1 compared to 3 permanent attractions on Streets of America, and Pandora because CMM's only attraction was moved to Africa instead of replaced. I make that +10 attractions and +2 restaurants

 

[Disstevefan1]

I’d wager money that this attraction will command lines but won’t have the charm and quality of RSR

I totally agree.

In my opinion, this will be done on the cheap so it will not have the quality of RSR and I think initially it will command lines because its new just like Moana did when it was new.

One thing for sure, we are going to have many years to argue about this before it opens.

 

[Moth]

Oh well, there’s still a chance one out of the four new attractions in this “expansion” will be interesting.

Four?

If all goes to plan, there's gonna be some surprises

 

[Kamikaze]

I’d wager money that this attraction will command lines but won’t have the charm and quality of RSR

As someone who doesn't like the 'slot car' ride system, I am confident that this will be a superior experience overall.

I hope for your sake you never make a typo on this forum, as any roasting you receive would be well deserved.

Luckily, I'm perfect.

Ummm…… surprises aren’t always good. Haha

 

[Moth]

Nono! These would be an amazing surprise if they pan out.

Oh!!! I’ll switch to optimistic mouse ears! Haha

I think that is head in sand over what the majority of the posts here advocate about

I do think that a lot of people are most upset that this couldn't have been an addition rather than a replacement.

I think that's more an excuse than a real concern. If this were at the expense of something like Philharmagic I don't think people would be crying over replacements. The replacement woe is usually more about fantasy/ignoring realities.. right up there with 'they should just open the 5th gate'

I personally think it's going to be the same caliber as TT 3.0. Not great and not terrible.

I sure hope not... TT3.0 is a poster child for empty fan service and a ride doomed to being boiled down to just enjoying the ride system. Like people riding Tiana just for the log drop. bleh!

this was always my ideal idea for villains. im doubtful tho i think its gonna be a dead end

 

[Dear Prudence]

RSR opened in 2012 and it had a huge budget. There is no way they'd spend that kind of money now. even if they did somehow, I don't think it would be nearly as charming or well thought out.

Im thinking the red area will be the land and the black area the show buildings, with a new path connecting from BTM to HM area, so creating a big loop that the villains area will be off of rather than a dead end.
