So, essentially , it's complicated. Re-wilding of former farmland definitely appears to be a factor in the population recovery, but definitely not the only or even primary factor, at least not in most of North America. I would guess that, given the current development and land-use trends...
It's true that our Black Bear populations are recovering rapidly, but it's simultaneously true that Black Bears are continuing to face habitat loss due to human development in and near forested areas. Those are both facts.
What I haven't heard before is the theory that a glut of abandoned...
It IS thematically correct for EPCOT, regardless of the organizations of the film project. the edit in question served no contextual purpose for the point I was making and the wording was unnecessarily incendiary
The California version is so much better. It's so frustrating to think about how we got a custom made film that's thematically correct for EPCOT, and they made something so inferior to the older film.
I have said exactly what I mean in both of my posts you've replied to, and you've offered no rebuttal to either of them. Only vague semantic disagreements that don't even try to form an argument.
You're the one who needs to speak more frankly, not me.
It's pretty clear from the words that they're using that none of this is green-lit. It seems to echo the tone of the D23 Conference blue sky segment.
I don't doubt that it's further along than it was back then... But they stopped short of actually committing to this.
Agree but this shouldn't be surprising to anyone. They've been pretty transparent that thematic integrity isn't important in the parks anymore. There's nothing left to sell with the Bug's Life IP
If they're going to insist on Zootopia in AK, this is probably the best-case scenario in minimizing its effect on the park as a whole.
On the other hand, it's also close the cheapest possible option. Waiting to see if they actually have the guts to greenlight expansions in the face of falling...
At this point the only thing saving the Country Bears is the price tag on a total re-do with Disney IP like has been rumoured the past few years.
They also might be holding out just to spite Mr. Clickbait, though it's possible the personnel involved in that back-and-forth are no longer with Disney.
