Oh, relax duster. It was a joke.
Absolutely no need for this whatsoever. It’s this sort of behavior that makes people not want to take what many of you have to say seriously.

It’s not and never has been opposition to you folks not liking things of being upset at changes you dislike. It’s this belief you all seem to carry that you can talk like this to anyone who doesn’t dislike it alongside you.

You are not better or smarter than anyone else here. Stop acting like you are.

Haven’t you heard? We are uneducated fools for continuing to go to the parks, or worse, enjoying them.

I had a revelation the other day that when Chester and Hester's opened with all the 2D cutouts on Primeval Whirl Disney didn't have rides full of screens. You had 3D movies and simulators, but if your cart was actually going forward you were getting actual sets. Might get a shadow projection. Dinosaur got legally screwed into having a single one.

That place really went from a sendup to roadside attractions to a parody of Disney completely by accident. I can see how the joke hits different when you actually walked through the parking lot full of faded remains they couldn't be bothered to wash off after parking 40 bucks to park and then waited in like for an hour for a screenbased ride before going there.

Looking at the current showbuilding progress for the Encanto attraction, I wonder if these three pillars that I circled are for the mountains that are going to be on the showbuilding to try and hide it?

So ... didn't see this one posted, but I found it quite interesting.

If you zoom in on the left side, you can see material samples, which have shown up in flights past. They include what look like mockups of the finishes for the entrance arch, the temple exterior, the artificial trees that will flank the temple, the mountains that will conceal the Encanto show building, and more. Pavement samples are also arrayed above.

What's new is on the right side of the image, where it looks like they're actually assembling some full-scale facade elements to drop into place later (though someone can correct me on that if I'm way off base). Hard to tell exactly what they are since we're looking at the reverse side of most of it. Perhaps they're levels of the tiered temple facade?

Full scale mockups are not unusual.
