I don't think the monorail revenue is why they're not allowing it. If I had to guess it was initially an OPs issue that has now turned into a small hotel incentive. But I'm guessing it's still just an OPs issue they are being lazy about addressing to account for the increased traffic through...

Seems to be going very viral on japanese twitter at least, I just came over from there to see if people here were discussing it. It's an atrocious issue, it's terrible there's no height regulations that close to the resort. Will OLC actually spend the money to fix that? If so, god bless that...

IP wasn't even the issue, and more that it was incredibly, incredibly cheaply planned. Look to the Toontown re-do (not counting MMRR), it was exactly on that level.

I think I've said this before but everyone here should be beyond thrilled they nixed the Tomorrowland re-do plans they had set to announce at last D23. It would have been an incredible disappointment. Truly colossal. Last I heard, and this was almost 18 months ago, there were a lot of people...

If I was the chairman of Parks, Resorts, and Experiences and I felt reasonably confident (as one could be at this company at any rate) that I was going to be named the next CEO of the Walt Disney Company in 2026 - I would know that D23 is essentially going to be my coming out party to the world...

Not OP but my wife and I were blown away by how much we loved Monsters Unchained. Easily our favorite universal ride of all time and one of the best rides we've ever done period. And we are not horror people in the slightest so that ride and land held very little interest for us on paper. I...

Came away with very similar impressions from our three day trip. Though honestly I wish we had even more time and can't wait to go back. I know it's been discussed ad-nauseum but I'm a little baffled at the decision to build a majority of rides that all shut down in the rain, in a state that...

This will be a fun speculation thread to re-visit when they inevitably announce that the AC replacement is somehow Radiator Springs

I agree, I unfortunately have never been that into electric mayhem (they're fun but theres so many other members I care much more about) - so its tough to see them triple down across the D+ show, probably the RNRC re-theme, and this potential new show. But I can't complain about wanting more...

Didn't realize the "Muppets potentially replacing Villains" thing was anything more than armchair wishing so that's very exciting. Wish they had announced it so there was more chance of it happening but I'll hold out hope. @lentesta Not sure if you're at liberty to say or even know, but curious...

To add some perspective, my wife and I make an annual WDW trip every year. We spend about 4-5 days in the parks. We like Universal, but not enough to go back unless something major opens. We have only made 3 visits in the last 8 years. We just got back from our most recent trip where we spent...

I understand your POV and under almost any other circumstance I would agree, but I actually think in the case of MV3D - Disney had a responsibility to preserve the show as a piece of irreplaceable art and history. And I'd even argue had the original attraction been built in Disneyland by Henson...

I could come to terms with Muppets dying if it wasn't for the fact that there is another completely useless section of the park just sitting there begging to be destroyed. If this was an entirely landlocked park and this was the only developable piece of land remaining, sure I could make peace...

We'll be there in August and were just there in December. I was very sad to see how short the Groot overlay window was because we'll have just missed it both ways. Was hoping the popularity would mean they would extend the window though I know they're pretty strict when it comes to dates.

I agree, and Aquatopia adds such a nice element of kinetic energy to that area of the park, something both of the OLC parks could use more of and not less.
