Throwing my hat into the ring
Magic Kingdom:
- Refreshed Cars concept art and family flat ride detailed.
- Look at new BTM finale and some other updated elements
- Surprise renovation news (Space Mountain, or Tiki Room my primary suspects)
- Pirates Bar opening date.
- WILDCARD: Maybe the Walt...
Oh, for sure! Guessing what will be at the event is always a (fun) fool's errand. I was more asking if a big list update was likely pre-DD23. But since I am less in the loop than Moth was unaware there wasn't much to update. Sorry for clogging up the thread, and keep up the good work @Moth !

Does anyone know if IMG Worlds of Adventure has exclusivity on Marvel IP in the region? It would be strange to have two different parks with the same IP, only an hour or two away from each other. Could this announcement even lead to a retheme for that park?
Honestly, the most exciting part of this news is that in the original Wrap report, the author says they're looking to utilize the plot behind Oga's for a real sit-down restaurant. At least them killing any potential dinner show here means we might get an actual Galaxy's Edge expansion.
