    MK Big Thunder Mountain to receive full retrack

    I’m curious if there is any intention to either remove or fix the interactive queue elements? I remember there was some periscope type thing that you could look through and see a bird inside the cave and there was a button you could push to make an explosion happen on the mountain. These items...

    Test Track Wait Times Longer?

    Since the update, Test Track 3.0 wait times seem to consistently be some of the highest in any of the parks. Generally 80-90 minutes for a majority of the day. I’d be curious to see data if anyone can corroborate this and what the uptick in wait times could be attributed to? Are they running...

    MK Villains Land Announced for Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom

    How are they going to go back to the drawing board for villians land if the permits are filed and already show where al the buildings are going? Are they going to scrap those permits and file new ones? Or is Disney offering up more land backstage to increase the size?

    MK Piston Peak and Villains Land Construction Thread

    How are they going back to the drawing board for Villians land if they already have permits on where the buildings are going and all that?

    News Who Will Replace Josh D'Amaro as Disney Experiences Chairman?

    To me, this promotion is almost going to be more important than Josh becoming CEO. This person is going to be the one partnering with imagineering and making decisions on what is to come next, not necessarily Josh. Josh is going to have to put trust in this person and give them the ability to...

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    I think Josh will be great for the parks. He definitely has some level of knowing what the theme park fan community wants. It’s not coincidence that we are getting a villain’s land and a monsters inc door coaster which had been talked about for like 20 years.

    Disney World’s Jeff Vahle Reflects on Growth, Change, and Reinvestment in Parks

    Wonders of Life, Journey into Imagination and Star Tours all come to mind as attractions that are probably in the line of sight of Imagineering.

    News 'Disney Dreams That Soar' Drone show coming to Walt Disney World this summer

    The drone show had little to no impact on guest spending. It ended up being a logistical nightmare with little to no benefit. Many of the restaurants are either breaking even or are up from last year.

    News Destination D23 2025

    Not even updated concept art. For a company who one minute is bringing back fan favorite concepts like the Door Coaster and a Villains Land to then hosting a fan event that is built on the back of parks announcements to not even have any updates is crazy to me and has me question how one...

    News Destination D23 2025

    Surprised they are releasing a lot of these details a week early. This all seems like very simple things that could have been announced at D23. So either there is going to be a focus on just a few things like villains land and cars or maybe they have plans for other announcements and don’t want...

    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    I’ve always heard about how cool the queue line is for Indiana jones in Disneyland and I hope we get something similar here in WDW. Another thing I haven’t seen talked about is that the concept art for the carousel attraction appears to be taken at night and there is a lot of lanterns on it...

    MK All-New Nighttime Parade Disney Starlight Set to Debut at Magic Kingdom in 2025

    Another issue that is bothering me is the length of time all the floats stay in a blue color. When they do transition to full colors the floats look so much better and more alive but it doesn’t last long enough before they transition back to blue.

    MK All-New Nighttime Parade Disney Starlight Set to Debut at Magic Kingdom in 2025

    Great floats but needs more in between the floats. Just add some more performers with light up dresses and maybe a few smaller light up features so the whole thing feels more like one flowing parade. Not here’s float A, empty space, here’s float B, empty space, etc. The music also didn’t knock...
