I wonder if the building in red could be a maintenance/storage shed for the coaster trains.

To me this would have to be something that will be revealed through permitting, land acquisition, or logistics with the city. That’s why I’m less inclined to think Tomorrowland and more inclined to think west side Disneyland Forward expansion or something on the Toy Story lot. There’s also the...

In the discussion surrounding WDW’s Villain’s Land and the potential changes it is undergoing, Steve (site owner of WDW Magic) suggested that “something big” could be in the works for the West Coast, rivaling or overshadowing the news reel for Villain’s Land. Thought it would be worth creating...

Great job creating this. I think this layout is highly possible based on the permits (unless plans are changed). I struggle with the idea of creating another dead-end. If it was so important to remove RoA to create a path from Big Thunder to Mansion, why would this layout not create a bigger issue?

If the coaster is downgraded from RnRC/Everest/TRON intensity to a Slinky or Big Thunder level, I will certainly be disappointed, but I will be even more disappointed if neither of these attractions feature stories with tension. No one expects (nor has asked for, at least that I’ve read) Alien...

I realize the first concept art was more “Blue Sky,” but inversions were featured, which lead many of us to believe this coaster’s intensity would rival RnRC, Everest, or TRON. Josh also promised “two major attractions,” so a high-thrill coaster (like the art clearly showed) plus a dark ride...

100% agree. “Bigger and bolder” but down-grading the coaster? If the Shanghai Pirates rumors are true, that attraction has no height requirement but gets amazing reviews. Why not use that ride system for the dark ride but keep the coaster thrilling? And I thought the whole point of the Cars...

Ironic that as Disney has loosened the central themes of each park, they have double downed on attraction styles/intensity levels. Why not give MK something more thrilling? Why not give DHS something more family-friendly? I’m sorry, but a coaster on the thrill level of SDD is so disappointing...

I could very well see a WestCOT-esque “Four Corners” style park that features Asia, Europe, Africa, and Americas lands with Disney IP sprinkled throughout. The other option could be similar to Disney Adventure World, which would allow for an Avatar land, for example.

I think internally TSMM was designed to be the land’s headliner “E,” with SDD being thought of as a D (or even C) and Aliens a B/A. Evidence for this is that the new TSMM queue is much longer than the SDD queue. The portion of the SDD queue that was covered after the fact was designed as...

The pandemic may have been to blame, but they 100% slow-rolled Tron to spread out costs.

During peak holiday season it was the same, which makes me believe they determined it was not necessary for operational efficiency or there is something wrong with that load position.

The past two days we visited DLR for the first time in 10 years. (We’re big WDW people/AP.) Thought I’d share a few tidbits from the trip. I realize none of these thoughts are novel. Security and entrance at DLR remains awful compared to WDW. Why are the bathrooms so tiny compared to WDW...

The dinosaurs were 100x more realistic than the cobra!

Agree! I used to criticize WDW for its inefficient use of space compared to Disneyland, for example, but this week when I visited DLR for the second time ever, it made me appreciate how the Florida parks are designed. At Disneyland Park, even the low crowd days feel incredibly crowded, because...
