    DHS Disney Animation-Inspired Experience Coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios

    Agree. I feel like that space could be a lot more. I think I said upstream that neither of the two re-do ideas I'd heard for AC did anything to get me excited. Mermaid is getting 4.5 stars out of 5 in our surveys. I'm sure a Bluey show would do boffo business. And the Magic of Disney...

    DHS Disney Animation-Inspired Experience Coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios

    On this week's Disney Dish, Jim has some new details on The Magic of Disney Animation 2 - Electric Boogaloo. Jim says this, the new show for Disney Junior, and the current Mermaid show is the 10-year plan for Animation Courtyard. The most likely candidate for the new show in the Disney Junior...

    News Disney Lakeshore Lodge (Project 89 - Development near Fort Wilderness)

    There's a mention of concierge on level 1, but that's also where back-of-house stuff is. I don't think they'd put it there. Do you?

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

    It likely involves the Maya god Chaac, who controls the weather including rain. Here's a screencap from Imagineering's presentation on the outside of the temple: Fun fact: Chaac is part of Namor's origin story in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Here's another slide from WDI: In Maya...

    News Disney Lakeshore Lodge (Project 89 - Development near Fort Wilderness)

    One thing I haven't been able to figure out is if there's a club-level lounge for the cash side of the resort. @HauntedPirate Any ideas?

    That's good to hear. I hope they float some ideas to get feedback.

    Nothing like increasing your food costs by a factor of 3! Holy cow.

    Rumor Potential New Magic Kingdom Area Hotel

    The construction for Villains Land is pretty far along? Sorry for asking - my wife and I are going through a difficult time right now*. We're working throught it, but it's been affecting me. It's the hard part of relationships that rarely gets talked about. *Whole Foods delivered two pounds...

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    I've heard nothing at all about those areas being affected. Doesn't mean it won't happen. Launch Bay's operational hourly capacity might as well be zero, so closing it affects no guests or park ops. There would have to be a pretty compelling idea to replace something like Indy, which is...

    In what school of design is "shareholder returns" most associated?

    Rumor Potential New Magic Kingdom Area Hotel

    For projects of this size I'm betting they do. For one thing, the SFWMD permitting process involves calculations of things like rain runoff from roofed buildings. Blueprints are also used to get bids prior to going to the board for budget approval. I think for something the size of Villains...

    Rumor Potential New Magic Kingdom Area Hotel

    It's possible. I don't know. Different folks on this forum have blueprints for every project that has them. I've not heard anything about Villains Land being available. That makes me think it's not at a point where they even know what they want to build. But I could be wrong.

    Also what I'm thinking. But Lakeshore Lodge is mixed, so not 100% sure.

    Right???!? That's the same reason why I suspect the Western Way work is going to lead to something. They're not spending $100MM to improve commute times for cast members.
