Doctor Strange is one of the only heroes available to Disney for use in the Florida parks, I'm sure we will get an attraction over there one day

If the paradise gardens area isn't going to be replaced, then I'd love to see them gradually start to incorporate the skeleton motif as you get closer to the attractions entrance. The swirl pattern in this wrought iron fence and chairs could easily become a skull just like what we see throughout...

Haha. What I took "blame Disney" to mean is "Disney's announcement has left us confused, because they haven't give us additional information". To me that is not a critic on Disney at all, more of an observation. Disney is under no obligation to share information just to satisfy us. And...

It's fair to blame Disney. As far as I remember there weren't any rumors about this attraction up until the announcement at D23. I think it's entirely possible that the decision to include Coco at DCA was a last minute one (that would explain the lack of rumors) and the concept art they showed...

It looks like they are still attempting to give the land the "the world extends beyond the walls" effect in the second piece of concept art. My guess would be some sort of LED screen. It'll probably look good from a distance We do have the recent Spider-man stuntronic, so all hope is not...

The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror is probably the best we can hope for, technically an IP, but adapted in a completely original manner. I could see Night at the Museum or National Treasure ride adaptations

The Bradbury Building in Downtown Los Angeles feels like the Station from Coco but in a narrower footprint. I'd love to see this as the inspiration for the show building's interior

The underlying inspiration for the pier is a Victorian-era seaside amusement park. Even with the Pixar Pier overlay that architecture mostly remains in tact. Of all of Pixar's films, Coco actually has Victorian locations. The Marigold Central Station is based off of Palacio de Correos de Mexico...

I wouldn't be surprised if at some point a Coco overlay was planned, but never announced, for the Mexico pavilion at Epcot and what we are getting here at DCA is a clone of that ride with the cancelled overlay, but with an extended outdoor queue. If it's anything more than that I'll be...

The aquatic robotics were shown off in a video from Walt Disney Imagineering. Defunctland (everyone should watch those YouTube videos) pointed out that from the exec point of view it doesn't matter whether these animatronics (or "droids" when talking about Galaxy's Edge) make it beyond the...

The current speculation is that Paris's original plans for an Avatar land in Disney Adventure World have now switched to Moana. The financing for the Shanghai parks is different than for the parks Disney owns outright so it would be difficult to switch those cost centers (probably not...

They announce stuff earlier because they have to sign contracts with third parties. The development cycle is also longer than it used to be. I've said it before, but Lightstorm Entertainment (James Cameron's company) is likely working on the ride film as we speak. It's in everyone's best...

You could apply this same argument in FAVOR of Avatar or Star Wars. The narrative elements inspire us to learn more about how those worlds were created. There are thousands of hours on the science behind those narratives (including why something wouldn't be scientifically possible ) of those...

They could do a quick overlay by using the Clawhauser b-mode tv screen instead of the animatronic.

OR... they could place Zootopia's Marsh Market somewhere in the Disneyland Forward expansion plot with a path/bridge leading from behind Bayou Country. I'm just throwing this out there to show that there are many ways to incorporate properties into this park. Zootopia is a huge property, I'm...
