I can't see them using the hype of the Avatar sequels to build an A/B ticket. They also like to build those sort of attractions as part of another major rollout, not on their own.

Depends on your definition of soon. Wouldn't make sense to crank out 3 E ticket rides so soon to one another. You wanna space them out to keep that money flowing in.

Ok so really not a difference at all. The Attractions 360 vids are often shot with minimal extra noise, and some vids have no other passengers in them. I didnt know if Disney did something extra like some behind the scenes tidbits to make their videos stand out.

I havent watched any yet, but im curious, what is the difference between these official videos and the ride videos made by 3rd parties like Attractions 360?

I look at it like this, one of the primary defenses for keeping the river was that it was already there. If there was an expansion going into any of the parks today and part of its sales pitch was that roughly 25 acres would be taken up for 2 attractions that combined would service 500 guests...

It seems like Orlando in particular is terrified about making sweeping changes like that. They probably see a 5 year timeline to completely redo Tomorrowland as too big of a potential P&L loss to the ATM that is WDW. I agree with you, the Tomorrowland in MK needs to be rethought. As of right...

There has to be a happy medium. If Walt got his way there wouldnt even be a MK, there would be some sort of defunct city in its place. Roy said it made business sense to put a "Disneyland" on the east coast to actually make some money before doing whatever Epcot would be. Its not an either or...

The comment was completely absurd for anyone who has ever been to WDW and ridden that boat. That's why we had to address it. It's wild to make an asinine statement and then ask people why they are focused on it. When you later stated you have never even been there before it explained...

Because what the other guy was posting were the max capacities for the riverboat. We are telling you the riverboat was nowhere near max capacity. It was LUCKY to be half full to be honest with you. And the island was a ghost town. So you take an attraction that can run 900 guests an hour and...

"Decent ridership" is a far cry from"I don't think the new Cars attraction will draw more capacity than the riverboat and TSI". When fans here say decent ridership, they are speaking in relation to the designed intent of the attraction. If the attraction is meant to be a reprieve from the...

Jesus Christ. How are you in here speaking on the use of an attraction you have never even visited? :banghead:

When is the last time you went to TSI? The last 3 trips i took my kids over there, we were just about alone. It was just groups of older people taking pictures back towards the park, our kids, and then people just sitting on benches. Almost nobody was out there actually exploring the play area.

If that happens then it can only mean one of two things, the Cars attractions are either non functional for large periods of the day or they are so God awful people actively avoid them. If the Cars attractions are functioning, and good, there is no way the capacity they draw would be less than...

They will have more used capacity. Theoretical capacity is meaningless if people don't actually visit the attraction. The riverboat and island were attractions that caused people to talk out of both sides of their mouth. In one statement people say "The riverboat and island have greater...

ROA still exists at numerous parks around the world. It can only been seen as the worst loss in Disney parks history if you only visit Orlando and have absolutely zero capacity to ever visit another park. Muppetvision no longer exists anywhere in the world. No matter how much money you spend...
