Here's one argument that can be made in Disney's defense: It's not hard to imagine Star Wars requiring a lot more attention to detail to make the land believable vs. something like Mario. Just look at the art.

Saw on twitter and other sites a leaked image of how Nintendo's fitting into Orlando... Someone's getting fired for that leak... It's far too early.
Care to post a link?
You mean e3? I could see this having much more to do with a nintendo world annoucment coming during their presentation than it having to do with d23.

Universal filed this patent recently. No one can figure out what it's for. I'm thinkin' it's for the rumored Secret Life For Pets ride.

There was discussion. I don't think it'll ever amount to anything. I think some people just got ahead of themselves when they were refurbishing The Hulk. The idea doesn't necessarily work for IOA anyway, because the only reason the Avengers are so popular right now is the film version, not the comics. I see Disneyland being the ones to open such a ride.
No D23 and I guess E3. D23 seeing as more info on Star Wars is coming so maybe Uni wanted to say look at this coming right after that.

I completely forgot about Slop (great acronym). I haven't seen the movie so i'm not sure what the patent would be getting at but it looks like you'd get into some sort of suit. Would be very cool but an ops nightmare when it first opens.Universal filed this patent recently. No one can figure out what it's for. I'm thinkin' it's for the rumored Secret Life For Pets ride.

Ohh wow... this makes sense! The rumored "jumping rollercoaster" patent, the "puzzle theatre" patent, and the "moving hills" patent in Mario Kart diagram. Would have loved to see much of this (albeit, a better themed mine cart coaster, I had expected.) Will be interesting to see what eventuates!

Is the DK coaster likely to be outdoors? Or will it be indoors? I feel that it would be significantly improved being indoors... but ahh well, what will be will be!
The Yoshi Island dark ride is news to me - sounds intriguing!
I don't think the insiders have said the exact plan for it yet.

The layout posted up above makes it look like it was originally planned to be half-in/half-out, so I wouldn't be surprised to see them follow through on that idea.

Heck, just a single Mario Kart ride would've been better than Kid-Zone haha! (I was not a fan of Kid-Zone. Poorly themed and outdated area in my opinion). Keen for this!
