It’s quite sad that the expectation for any new park pretty much anywhere is an iteration of Islands of Adventure.

Do you think Shanghai will go for another expansion next or go for a second gate?

If we’re lucky, a castle park.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Abu Dhabi is more Islands of Adventure than Disneyland.

The industry's main takeaway from the success of WWoHP being "build more IP lands" was unfortunate
Agree, IMO the biggest take away from IOA, is the same for EPCOT and DisneySea. Ppl like big open theme parks built around big bodies of water.

That’s actually what I most dislike about IOA.
Layout isn’t the trend the industry is copying from IOA. It’s unified IP lands. IOA’s layout is the worst. DisneySea is a giant grid.
If I had to predict a rough layout, it would be DAW/Epcot.

“Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang encouraged Iger to invest further in China, a notable shift from Beijing's threat last April that it would further restrict imports of Hollywood films in response to U.S. tariffs.”
"Disney is full of confidence in China's development and will continue to expand investment in China," Iger was quoted as saying.

I think it’s almost a certainty it’s getting a second gate either announced this year for its 10th anniversary.
Completely agree, what excites me if you have
1. confirmed Abu Dhabi Disneyland
2. Rumored Second gate for Shanghai
3. rumors about a Disney park in Thailand
4. rumors/speculation about 3rd gates for Anaheim and Paris
^and wether all of those happen or not. that fact that there's a possibility about multiple parks in development is something we haven't seen in 20 some years and is incredibly exciting. What will these park's theme be. What lands will be unique vs shared RandD cost. What will the scale be. Etc. Are just incredibly exciting to me

It’s time Disney makes a park in New Jersey reclaiming land in the ocean taking advantage of Philly/NYC population, Texas, and to drop one in Argentina/Brazil.
If Europa Park can succeed, there’s no reason why Disney Parks couldn’t.
personally I think it's nut's there's only one disney resort in Europe.

There is no third park rumor in DLP. They just have until 2036 to decide if they want to build something on the land allocated for a potentially third gate. It could be a water park, hotels, a mall, housing, whatever just something !
If they don’t, then the land will return to French government.
It’s 240 hours.

Do you have evidence it can be "something" as I have never heard this before?
Natasha has referenced the third park recently. And there are works starting to provide the third park portion of the resort with a new substation as well as increased road capacity. I'm not saying the park will be open before 2040. But opening a new Disney park is a very slow burn.
Agree, and I also to clarify didn't mean their we're rumors about disney currently working on it, but rather meant that wether it be a second gate for Shanghai, or a third for Paris and or Anaheim, these are all things imaginnerring at the very least is keeping in mind rn

What did Natasha say about the third park?

I still say Disney Adventure World needs at least one more new land (besides LK) around the lake, redo the cars and Nemo ride, and still should have a new entenerence before a 3rd park. But I also think there's no reason a 3rd park could be done while the other 2 parks are worked on. IE WDW is redoing almost all 4 parks at once
