I feel like if Villains and Cars are going to have connecting waterways, the Villains plans need to be fully finalized ASAP. They're pretty close to finishing the Cars river, no? Sure the connection points could be added retroactively, but that feels a bit like backwards planning.

Especially when a more intense rollercoaster would pull focus from Tron resulting in less wait times. Every single piece of feedback for Tron is that "it's fun, but too short and never worth the wait time." Adding something on the same intensity, if not more, would lower Tron's average wait...

I think I would be more okay with them positioning this as their answer to Berk if they weren't already building their answer to Berk right down the street. A Kids Coaster that seems more intense than it is (launch vs suspended track) A highly immersive land with animatronics bringing...

Yeah, I don't think downgraded coaster and a fourth spinner ride is the answer here. This was an exciting project because they were pushing what can belong in the magic kingdom. This "update" feels like more of the same, and similar to New Fantasyland. I fear this expansion will end up a ghost...

Anyone have a non paywall version of this? Or can summarize?

I wouldn't downplay Once Upon A Studio, I think it was a lot more special than you're giving it credit for. People at Disney clearly liked it enough to use it as an anchor for a new experience in the parks. 🤷‍♂️ Sure, I agree not enough people saw it, but I'm sure they will have it playing on...

This is the only miss I see here. 8 characters that you can meet in other areas. They had the opportunity to build some unique and complex meet and greets, like Ernesto de la Cruz at Oogie Boogie, or at least give us a character you can't meet currently (HERCULES!). There were so many rare...

What were you feeling was missing? If you give some examples, I'd be happy to check for you. :) Or you could check out this archive that has everything currently on Disney+.

Nightmare makes a lot of sense with how heavily the Halloween, and to a degree Christmas, parties rely on the characters. There's a proven fanbase for this movie, so giving them a permanent home makes sense. I'm just happy we wouldn't have to lose Mansion for half the year to make it happen.

If you back a few pages to the latest construction photos, you'll find a brief discussion. They're framing out the waterway currently, and we should have a better idea of how robust this waterway will look soon.

I thought it was a great watch. Lots of small Easter eggs for fans to enjoy. I almost screamed when Miss Poogy was in two scenes. I truly thought I'd never see her again. Hope it gets picked up for an ongoing run.

I thought the Lady Gaga ARTPOP/Muppet special was phenomenal. I'm highly biased as Gaga is my favorite artist, and ARTPOP is my favorite album by her. As previously mentioned it was a time where it was very popular to hate on her (which had carried on to this day unfortunately), but the special...

I think the pivot from meet and greet spaces to SDMT ate up a healthy chunk of Little Mermaid's budget

You think pizza with them adding the pizza spring rolls to Toy Story Land as well? That feels like a lot of pizza for one park (Monsters, TSL, and Sunset).

To be honest droids and aliens will go a long way to make it feel it feel like you're in Star Wars, even more so than just adding Luke, Leia and Han. I think just adding original trilogy characters will result in the land still feeling empty and like a theme park land. They really need a way to...
