    Do you think Shanghai will go for another expansion next or go for a second gate?

    So China's own Epcot? Will they be doing a World Showcase, and if so which countries will make it? or they will just have more generic lands themed to different continents and pick the IP that fit that continent. The white structure on the far right look like some icy mountain. I hope really...

    News Construction Underway on Fourth Wish Class Ship: Disney Believe

    It makes much more sense to be the main theatre broadway show. It's literally perfect for it with its big sets and songs. Also because there are already Frozen, Moana and Little Mermaid shows, and Snow White isn't as suitable for Broadway (dwarfs hard to cast), so that leaves Encanto only.

    DCL Buys Unfinished Mega Cruise Ship - Genting Golden Dream ???

    No, it's actually the perfect kind of room for a group young adults friends travelling, like a girls weekend away, who don't want to share beds with non-family members, but also want to be in the same room to interact with each other and save cost. In Asia there are a lot of these type of...

    Rumor Tokyo Disneyland Splash Mountain Retheme Discussion

    I recall OLC's blue sky drawing for new Adventureland had the Incredibles train going through the land and jungles. They can easily change that to the train in Zootopia going through the different terrains - some actually built, some through the changing screen on the windows similar to the...

    Rumor Tokyo Disneyland Splash Mountain Retheme Discussion

    Zootopia is now Disney's most successful franchise box office wise in Japan just behind Frozen. Yet it has no rides or shows currently in Tokyo Disney. Given how IP focus OLC is also now, it is hard to fathom they aren't already of thinking how to capitalize on Z2's new found success in some way...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    According to IMAX 2025 results report, Ne Zha 2 was the highest grossing film for IMAX in 2025 calendar year. IMAX is a Canadian listed company, are you saying they are lying about Ne Zha’s box office too? https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260107909783/en/ “Ne Zha 2” (Enlight) — $166.7...

    News Live-Action Tangled Remake in Development

    The point is that the live actions aren't 'investments', they are cash-printing machine with short turnaround time that generate the cash Disney needs to 'invest' in new originals. You make it sound like if Disney spend more on originals that will guarantee their success. But as said, the...

    News Live-Action Tangled Remake in Development

    Are you seriously asking the question of what's the point of Disney earning $1B in box office and increase $2B more in merchandise thanks to reginited interest in the Stitch IP from the live action? This $3B cash here is what funds your theme park expansion and Disney's ability to take risks on...

    Miscellaneous Tokyo Thoughts

    I suspect they are reserving that last precious TDS expansion plot for the next IP that truly breaks out after Frozen. Whilst a Polynesian area with a Moana ride makes total sense for that plot, Moana is not that big of an IP in Japan. I don't think they've had a break-out Disney IP of Frozen...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    I think they meant $1B by weekend of 6-7th. The ~$560m opening weekend for Zootopia 2 was over 5 days, whereas they have a full week by Dec 7 to make $440m to reach a billion. Not all markets opened last week, whilst you have major markets like Japan opening this week on Dec 5th. On the...

    Next Wish Class Ship themes

    If I recall correctly, the theme for Wish was "Enchantment", hence the abundance of Princess themed decor. I suspect 'powers' may be too similar to the recent 'hero & villains' theme. 'Family & Friends' sound like a potential theme, although I don't know what the ship's name should be called...

    Disney Destiny

    But this white chandelier is not on the newer boats as you've noted in your original message. I mean one can dislike the design of the newer chandelier because it doesn't reflect their style of preference, but none of the Wish, Treasure or Destiny chandeliers are anywhere in the realm of 'plain...

    Miscellaneous Tokyo Thoughts

    They have limited options remaining to expand on land. It will be interesting to see if the first OLC Disney ship will be a collection of the greatest hits from DCL's prior ships similar to Tokyo Disneyland, or they want exclusive unique offerings (simlar to their recent park strategy) from...

    Next Wish Class Ship themes

    I would love for Mulan to get a full theatre production rather than just a dinner show, but given how popular it is, Encanto seems like the no-brainer for a next new theatre production. OLC had also reported to be interested in a second ship as well (although unknown as to whether the Wish...

    Shanghai Disneyland from a first timers view

    I wouldn't say HK Disneyland is not unique. It's castle is very unique (probably the second most exquisite castle behind Paris now when seen in person), Mystic Manor, and Grizzly Gulch are unique, and it has the better Frozen area than Epcot and DisneySea. Whilst Shanghai has Pirates and...
