That (gorgeous) picture really gives a sense of scale to the expansion.

Any idea on theme?

“South parcel of the Shanghai International Resort” - is that to mean the same as the south end of the Disney resort property? Like is this just a nomenclature thing? I’m confused on where this is going honestly.

IMO it's gorgeous and delivered exactly on its promises. That entry is quite nice and I'm loving that hue of gold they chose. I'll definitely be paying (literally) a visit during my next vacation here.

Just adding one to the mix: On Indy when you make that first turn into the massive cavern room and you can see the jeep ahead traverse the bridge. Literally makes me think that this is only something as immersive and on a scale that only Disney can deliver on.

Is the threat of structural collapse not enough? (kidding, but am I?) Side note, when the half a billion number gets thrown out for Cosmic Rewind, I can't help but look around that ride and wonder where all that money went. It's an incredible roller coaster, don't get me wrong, but it's sorely...

A thought and a question: 1) it's just incredible to see how they transformed this flat grassland into this multi-dimensional experience. It's beautiful seeing it coming together. 2) am I mistaken or is the bunch of dirt in the background the site prep for Lion King?

Has anyone heard any updates regarding the new coaster? SFMM is surprisingly quiet about it.

My comment was on pacing, not quantity.

So what you're saying is that Disney announces way too soon and takes far too long to build, got it. ;)

Between this, the rapid rise of SM: Earthrise at TDR, WDSP kicking into high gear, and construction already starting on the Pixar Experience at HKDL, seems like work at the international parks is really moving at a fast pace. Domestic parks, on the other hand...

Agreed. And not to beat a dead horse but again since you mentioned it, the new park name is absolutely horrendous - even for Iger. ChatGPT had better options.

I'm curious to know the cross-pollination between USO and USH. That should play a solid factor in a cloned versus exclusive attraction. Of all EU outputs, Dark Universe is the most exciting to me personally, and I do think it'd be a solid add to USH. Doesn't have to be Monsters: Unchained - it...

I share mixed feelings about this project, but mixed-to-positive, only because I’m a bit of a realist here. For reasons that have been alluded to here, the location is a strategic choice from a financial, logistical, and political standpoint - it ticks the boxes better than the other rumored...

Agreed. I'd say during the day, the 'wide shot' falls in the low-middle range of the pack, but at night, solid middle. IMO at night it's indeed a sight when you round the bend. But those darn sightlines...
