Is it true that a drop ride with GOTG was rumored for Epcot? Spirit seemed to hint as crazy as it seems, it was a possibility.

@marni1971 can you divulge any info about Pixar Pier? As a DLR native and big fan of DCA circa 2012-2015, should I be as in fear as I am? Is this going to be as embarrassing as it sounds? Are they seriously going to change the park icon 5 years after establishing a new one?

As much as people want to believe it, the general public did not lament the loss of Maelstrom. Comparing TOT and Maelstrom is beyond silly. The Facebook (a prime example of non-hardcore fan, but casual fan audience) comments during the shutdown and even still are more negative than they have...

In what way does it "certainly seem like it will be"? Look at anything Disney posts about it and there more negative comments than any other thing they ever post. Not saying the reaction is entirely negative but there a lot of people, not just us, who will look at this ride with a critical eye...

So a coaster but no Guardians IP? I'm okay with that. Is there an IP at all...?

A meet and greet with the Fab 5 is in no way comparable to a major Zootopia land or attraction.

Anyone who thinks Zootopia belongs in DAK clearly did not understand the message of the film. It has nothing to do with nature, environmentalism, animals or any of the "missions of DAK" that Rhode toted in the Pandora videos. It's a great film with a well-deserved Oscar but it is about social...

Sounds like DCA Tower of Terror to me!

It is definitely a hodgepodge, but to say that Star Wars doesn't fit in TL but GOTG belongs in Hollywood and more importantly CALIFORNIA is silly. Hollywoodland, excluding the backlot and including the former TOT, was more consistent than Tomorrowland. But currently, not even close...

Sounds exciting. I'm open to some change but I hope that the music and vibe traditional Disney magic and less pop. Save that for Paint the Night (which is great, and has its place, but it doesn't all need to be that way). I still remember probably almost a year ago now @WDW1974 saying that F...

There would be outrage - probably worse than the TOT outrage - if the change was permanent. People are upset about the permanent change to Hyperspace in DLP Discoveryland. The only better factor in this change would be that Star Wars currently fits in the theme of Tomorrowland and does not...

That and DL this summer has a very nostalgic feel (RDCT, MSEP, Classic Space Mountain, reopening of ROA) which is supposed to offset the...less than nostalgic feel of the new (painted over and bolted pipes) offerings in DCA.

Skip to 17:30 folks . Would someone care to explain the singed and burnt former towers? Or what the strange burnt material encasing the elevator doors is? Just remnants from the previous tenant that Del Toro painted over? At this point it would seriously make more thematic sense if they said...

Someone remind me again why the Collector has us riding in freight elevators? (that is rhetorical, if someone gives me that DA story that Chappie made up....)

Exactly I could see them just extending the bounds of that park-like section and make it seem like a London park. Thus, the carousel could even be non-IP, which has been hinted at here. Think of it more as an atmospheric ride than an actual attraction that every guest is going to be clamoring to...
