I'm saying that they're only moving forward with Encanto at Animal Kingdom.

Encanto is a go! This expansion seems to have always been dreamed up as Tropical Americas. Encanto and Indy were some of the ideas for the attractions it seems, but i think it will be all Encanto now. Whether that means Dinosaur stays or not.

I have many reasons to believe this will be a hit! Maybe even a classic in the making. I can't wait to experience it. And yeah, there doesn't seem to be any plans for a New Orleans area. I love Disneyland's NOS so hopefully MK eventually gets it's own. However, the next thing in the cards for MK...

We will be entering Mama Odie's house within the ride before climbing up the lift hill! The finale is indeed Tiana's Palace.

The finale scene will be entirely new. Not sure if it's exactly 48 but it's around that figure. Close to 20 are advanced audio-animatronics, the rest are models with limited movement. No projected faces but plenty of cool projection effects throughout the ride scenes like fireflies and fog.

Expect this retheme to include over four dozens new audio-animatronics, around half of which will be models of the latest generation. Three of those will be Tiana. Screens and projections will be utilized to add depth to sets, other than that, the biggest use of screens and projections will be...
