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

IMO AK's rides should fall into one of three catagories
1. relation between man and nature
2. relation between man and animals
2. relation between animals and nature

And I think all rides in AK present and future fall into these with exception to the zootopia show
1. relation between man and nature: Kali, Na'vi?, EE, (I assume Indy)
2. relation between man and animals Dinosaur, FOP, FotLK, Nemo, New Carousel, (Maybe Encanto)
3. relation between animals and nature: Gorilla Falls, Maharajah Jungel Trek, Kilimanjaro Safaris, Bird show, Winged Encounters,

Not in any of the 3 categories as far as I can tell: Animation Experience, Eco-Rhythmics, Harambe Village Street Band, Kora Tinga Tinga, Songs You'll Dig, Tam Tam Drummers, Viva Gaia, Wildlife express train

Im only talking about rides and the train is kinda a necessity and im also just saying I think the rides should fall in 1 of the 3 categories IMO

Because the ones in Ellen's weren't generating interest in guests anymore. The Dino Land ones were roundly criticized. The ones in Countdown weren't related to an IP. Attempts to create a popular dinosaur franchise failed, while Universal's were successful.

Gertie is still in DHS and the dinosaur diorama is still in DL's train ride.

But you knew all this. This was just another feeble attempt to score points against Disney and Iger.

We all know what you're doing. We know your posts are generally not in good faith.

Good day.
Oh, relax duster. It was a joke.

Jeff Vahle joined Cast Members at Disney's Animal Kingdom to sign a steel beam that will be part of the Encanto attraction in Tropical Americas:

PSA: Let it be understood, that this does not reflect progress in anyway. This is not to indicate that they are ahead of schedule or behind schedule.

Even though the imaginners are celebrating something they are attributing to a milestone, we should not handclap, indicate excitement or show any emotion with them.

This project is due to be finished in 2027.

Hoping the new DAK nighttime show that everyone seems to agree the park needs is announced this year at D23, alongside all the further details they will have about Tropical Americas
Yeah I'm really hoping AK gets a nighttime show sometime before or after Tropical Americas opens. Hopefully they use the lake as it really is underutilized now. Though Animal Kingdom's 30th anniversary is in 2028, so maybe we'll get something by then?

Either way, I think Tropical Americas will look pretty cool at night, especially the courtyard, Casita, and the Mayan Temple facade for Indiana Jones. Hopefully they'll extend the hours for that park whenever I go in (hopefully) 2028

I'm assuming this is facetious, but in case it's not, I don't think anyone has said that, like, ever.
My post is hyperbolic, but I'd argue your position is disingenuous on the very conversation that happened previously in this thread.

I challenge you to read the back and forth about the first vertical beam construction. See if you feel better about your position.

I will say debate what we want about disney Ip at DAK but esp with the music of indy and Encanto plus the preexisting music of Avatar and LK I really hope drones mixed in with some water and (idk if they would actually be allowed or not bc of the animals) lasers would be a great mix. Would love a show like the current one at DisneySea or sm like Fantasmic. Plus the parks I think need drones the most are AK and EPCOT

I've been back to re-read it. One person was outright hostile, one did a "well actually" about vertical construction having technically started before that, and then there was the usual cadre of people who are just negative about absolutely everything and should generally be ignored (but also don't typically even engage with others enough to outright tell them not to be positive; they just copy-paste the same complaints). The rest were just saying not to conflate vertical construction with acceleration, which does not have anything to do with suppressing interest or appreciation of milestones.

I think 2028 makes the most sense. Give it some time after Tropical opens to gauge interest and crowds and then launch a drone show and keep the park opened 2-3 hours later. Plus, if it doesn't work out (again) they can remove the show after the 30th celebration is over.
