    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    There's no way they don't completely dismantle it. I refuse to believe nuDis would ever spend a single penny keeping this alive in any way or form. I would assume it's getting moved to it's final resting spot before it's scrapped.

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

    Has it been confirmed that there won't be animal enclosures? Sorry if I missed that. I assumed there wouldn't be because this is nuDis we're talking about.

    That's the sarlacc pit where Imagineers with good ideas are thrown into by Josh and Jeff.

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    Should have clarified, the scenery will be heavily inspired by GR and the overall scope and size are very comparable. They will obviously have different layouts. Didn't hear much else other than the supposed water elements will be laughable due to budget/maintenance. Again, I'm not an insider...

    MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    I'm willing to bet my bottom Disney dollar it'll be what amounts to a clone of Grizzly River with Cars slapped on and a different ride system (though the Cars track should be roughly the same size as the flume GR rafts float down). Similar theming, style, size of attraction, etc. I've heard this...

    The Liberty Belle is dead. It'll be quietly moved and scrapped and that will be that. Disney hates its prime customers and thinks it can reach the """modern audience""" (which doesn't exist) with this monstrosity. Jeff, Josh, and Bob are all empty suits that only care about money and hate what...

    EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    He seems to care so little about the state of the parks that I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't really know what was there beforehand. Not to mention the Jeff/Josh combo that are probably extremely eager to hide their mismanagement, I'd be willing it was all swept under the rug. That's what...

    EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    I hate to break it to you but I can guarantee he thinks it looks "nice" because it's as soulless and sterile as he is.

    DHS Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

    With nuDisney and this current crop of unImagineers, what do you think?

    News Disney Parks Chief Josh D'Amaro Says Pricing Model Aims to Keep Vacations Affordable for Families

    ALLEGEDLY he was against that from the very beginning and did everything he could to stop it but was directly overruled. Take that with a grain of salt mined from a Louisiana salt dome mountain in a bayou for some reason.

    EPCOT New GEO-82 Spaceship Earth Lounge Coming to EPCOT

    It just looks so sterile and soulless. Maybe it'll be better in person but it reminds me of a bar I used to frequent in my younger days here in Nashville. I thought Space 220's interior looked bad in initial previews but when I saw it in person I thought it was actually fairly well done, maybe...

    News Disney Parks Chief Josh D'Amaro Says Pricing Model Aims to Keep Vacations Affordable for Families

    I don't disagree, I think Josh sucks too. He's just not as bad as Walden would be or how Chapek was. It's sad that the choices appear to be this grim but he's the lesser of all the evils as far as I can tell. They need a true creative as CEO and that will likely never happen ever again.

    News Disney Parks Chief Josh D'Amaro Says Pricing Model Aims to Keep Vacations Affordable for Families

    I've heard various rumors from people in the company/random message boards/twitter posts that Josh has SOME redeeming qualities and he's talked both Bob's off the ledge on some truly insane and destructive parks related decisions. I think he would definitely a step up from Chapek, but I don't...

    You have to be IN the ride (or whatever you want to call it) to experience the water for Moana. And while the EPCOT entrance fountain is great, maintenance issues aside, my point is we should expect more out of Disney than a decent sized fountain at the entrance and a relatively minor fountain...
