New Tomorrowland @ Disneyland? Is this the year it finally gets announced? No, and that’s OK

I think a 60s retrofuturistic look may suit it well, especially if Fantastic Four does well this summer in theaters.

Huh, this thought hadn’t really occurred to me.

I… actually don’t hate it.

One of the overlying problems with Tomorrowland is in an IP mandate, everything that was supposed to be a jumping point has bombed. Minor miracle they didn’t phone it in with Incredibles.

I don’t NEED a fantastic four Tomorrowland, but if they based an e ticket around it in the launch bay space + retro-asthetic vibes spilled out into the land proper, that would work. I’ll even take the monkey paw for a Mr Fantastics Peoplemover, whatever. Sell my soul.

If the movie is a success I’m predicting a fantastic 4 retheme of Star tours at least for Disneyland.

I mean if we're getting an IP mandated overlay on things anyways, it would actually fit the land fairly well especially based on the space and retrofuturistic themes of the franchise.

I mean you should go see it because it actually looks good, but yeah this is one time where you should watch a Disney/MCU movie because you want it to be part of a lands redo because it just fits so well. :)

Disney should just come out and say that if this movie is a success they will bring back the peoplemover with herbie as your tour guide. Surely that will grantee some more ticket sales.

Cause fantastic 4 fits the retro future vibe perfectly.

Not really. What does funny paper characters have to do with

A vista into a world of wondrous ideas, signifying man's achievement, a step into the future with predictions of constructive things to come. Tomorrow offers new frontiers in science, adventure, and ideals -- the atomic age, the challenge of outer space, and the hope for a peaceful and unified world.

I agree it’s not much but the de facto rule with Disney is ALMOST everything has to be based on a ip and as far as those go fantastic 4 fits pretty well imo. Pair it with a wall-e ride and an elio retheme of buzz and I think that’s about the best you can hope for ip wise.

I did. Cause it takes place in the 60s and has some space travel? So 60s scifi is the Tomorrowland we want to go with? Sounds like past land to me.

The trailer screams retro futuristic. And besides what do you think Disney will actually do that is a better fit theme wise?

The ideal aesthetic for Tomorrowland is a mall from 1980. Give me white concrete, tropical plants, and fountains!

No overarching Fantastic Four theme in Tomorrowland, please. I'm not a fan of this idea. I would have been against the Star Wars overlay as well. Let Tomorrowland remain Tomorrowland, just make it Ubetter than what it is now by bringing back the PeopleMover and utilizing under-utilized spaces.

Ooo it hit me when you said “overarching.” Not sure I like the sound of that. I haven’t even seen the trailer for the movie. I want the white retro futuristic vibe from TL 67 back. If the movie is the reason that comes back instead of the plethora of other bad ideas they might cook up I’d be all for it. It’s low risk/ high reward. Obviously still comes down to execution.

Like you said bring the Peoplemover back and if the poor start up Disney could find the spare change to put the Astro Orbitor in its rightful place that would be great too.
