Potentially, however it all seems very vague at the moment. And with the direction Disney is moving in, I don't foresee them creating a land based on Oz, or another real life geographic location, with the IP's within, rather the land itself will be based on the IP such as Star Wars, Frozen, Toy Story, etc. It just does not make that much sense taking the park in that direction, but I appreciate this has been something people have discussed for several years now.It seems likely that’s exactly what they are doing with Moana, no? I mean it’s right next to Nemo and it was indicated in the past there are plans to detach Dinorama from the rest of Dinoland USA to make it a separate land. If the Liana thing happens I’d be surprised if it’s not as a “Oceana” type land.
Edit: that’s one of the reasons I’m fairly accepting of the Moana change were it to happen. It actually strengthens the continental divisions of DAK. that leaves the nice large area north of Asia to be perfect for South America. Would also be great if they could add some Australian or Pacific Island animals to the area around Moana too. Even just 2 or 3 for atmosphere and some nominal learning.
I find it super frustrating because it seems obvious to me. IP the s**t out of the parks to your hearts content, but make it make sense. And what we have seen here, be it Zootopia, Coco, Encanto, just does not sit right with me. Not to say I don't want to see these IP's in the parks, I do, however ensure it upholds the integrity of the parks.
I hope people don't think I am trolling or being overly negative, I'm just really concerned about the future of Disney parks, & ultimately want the best for them. The only positive takeaway for me as Brit, is the current company are keeping their hands off Disneyland Paris park for the time being. Despite the park being desperate for new attractions, the current company cannot be trusted to deliver, and match the quality of the existing park.
