Any idea what they're doing there? Backstage stuff or just expanded pathways, planters and maybe benches?

Living in Orlando, I've heard from at least a dozen people that this is the case. More recently, I had someone say that the vehicles were already sold. It'll probably just continue to exist as a penguin exhibit that I bypass the line for by just going up the exit.

It doesn't seem plausible to me that it would go in Epic, even if Illumination is supposed to have representation there. I was under the assumption that the statement referred to meet and greets and the attraction doesn't seem to fit with the current progress we're seeing in the park. So does...

Considering how Cars Road Trip turned out, I wouldn't at all be surprised if they seriously considered putting up cardboard cutouts of Lightning McQueen in there.

It's a competently helmed film, but also highly flawed. Like I said, the characters are flanderized and feel inauthentic. Many of the character moments are contrived to the point of feeling cringy, such as the scene where Andy hands his toys down to Bonnie. Also, have you watched it recently...

The recent Pixar films were still developed under Iger though. Lightyear started development in 2019 and now it's a box office bomb (at least by Disney standards)? Perhaps it was Chapek's decision to bring Soul, Luca and Turning Red to Disney+, but I do think that overall, the Pixar brand has...

I was under the impression that "Summer 2025" was a worst case scenario type of date. I believe that they said by Summer 2025 and I wouldn't be surprised Fall or Winter 2024.

Looks strange. Donkey Kong track maybe?

This reminds me of the people I've seen get off of Fast and Furious: Supercharged, unironically and excitedly yelling about how great it was. Yet, we know the overall consensus on it.

I've recently been doing research on Europa Park in Germany and I was interested to see that much of it is largely inspired by Disney. They have a sphere similar to Spaceship Earth that contains a Space Mountain-esque rollercoaster inside. There's a lengthy Ghost Castle dark ride that has a...

Out of curiosity, what were the highlights for you? I've grown cynical and the place has completely lost my interest, but I'm interested in an outsider perspective.

How can you go deep when the pool is shallow?

I would like to see the Swiss pavilion revived. While I disagreed with Eisner's attempt to make Epcot more "90s", I do agree with the notion that it needed (and still does need) more thrill rides. A Swiss pavilion would be placed between the German and Italian pavilions, making a lot of sense...

On initial impression, it appears that the poor state of the attraction of both coasts indicates that Disney is just allowing it to limp along until the actual closure happens. However, I'm not so sure that the lack of maintenance correlates with this. I've heard from Disney Cast Members that...

I believe that the official announcement stated that the Kirkman Road expansion would also include dedicated bus lanes.

I'm a bit conflicted. While the interior looks like it's paying tribute to classic Communicore (I really like the big open windows with greenery outside), there are other elements that feel a little too "Apple store". Overall, I think I like the space and I'm actually excited to check something...

To throw myself thoughts into the conversation from the last few pages, the story of Splash was never clear to me until I looked it up (somewhere around 2012-2013). In my opinion, a large component of this is because the audio is often unclear as others have also mentioned. At the time, I only...

I didn't realize it would be so... vertical.

I think you've made a good point that I haven't thought about before. I've frequently seen a lot of "don't change Splash Mountain, create a dark ride or Tiana's Place restaurant" instead and I also agree that it's the correct course of action. Song of the South certainly has problematic...

Just my two cents and I don't know if it's been mentioned elsewhere in the threat, but the narrative that Disney is only targeting the wealthy is false. They are targeting the wealthy to stay on property, as the abundance of new Hilton-esque room refurbishments and DVC towers has revealed, but...
