    One Sentence Competition: The Prism of SYWTBAI - Game End

    Great Railway Tales All aboard a carriage for a grand circle trip between the (railway) lines! This semi-Omnimover (a la Journey Into Imagination and A Passage to the Stars) transports guests from a station library through some of history’s greatest train tales both fact and fiction, like the...

    Mirror Disneyland: One Final Edition (Seriously)

    I actually think it tops both of the IRL Frozen rides' stories - and that's only going off of what equates to a brief summary!

    $500 million for Cosmic Rewind,…why?

    Presumably because TWDC proper had little faith in investing in major projects other than thrill rides prior to the DCA overhaul/New Fantasyland (Hunny Hunt cost 11 billion yen circa 1998-2000 to build)...not that Imagineering wasn't trying to incorporate the tech into more attractions. Since...

    Citrus Dreamin' - A NEW Imagineering Competition - Chat and Hype Thread

    Very much like PerGron, I have a personal project currently ongoing and ready to be worked on in a greater capacity now that I've got Citrus Dreamin' out of the way. Come and check out my Dream Resort! Maybe pitch in for a couple of concept art or what have you?

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    Walt named the Floridian resort he had his sights on "World" and not another "land" because the acreage of land available was vastly bigger in comparison to the plot he was all but landlocked within in California - the oft-cited "blessing of size" he was looking for all along. Even if the resort...

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    Seeing this discussion on to clone or not to clone leaves me thinking that the arguments that Disney is losing their way or isn't doing anything fresh and original are rendered moot when the desired solution seems to be just copy-pasting pre-existing builds into whatever space there is available...

    $500 million for Cosmic Rewind,…why?

    Definitely has to do with costs spiraling out of control within the company in general. This is the same company and the same generation which funded $200+ million (more than double the cost of Expedition Everest) for an overlay of Paradise Pier and $150m (still more than Everest) for what...

    Tokyo Disneyland Resort Expansion

    Or it could've been a boat that starts out on water as per the norm before switching to being suspended from an aerial track... ...oh, wait, Universal already patented that

    Rides from other Disney parks

    Gonna come in with a piping hot take and say that WDW should focus less on cloning attractions and building more unique ones. Especially in the case of the castle parks, the other five have something to give them an identity to call all their own (Disneyland has the Matterhorn, their cluster of...

    Citrus Dreamin' - Game Thread

    This is very high praise indeed - I am honored! Those "slight edits" you mention were by yours truly! You know you've got a point when even who you call the best writer in the community thinks they improved upon what he had down here

    50’s land at Hollywood studios (Sci-Fi Dine In Theater and Restaurant Facade Concept Art)

    I can see that...and I agree! Sometimes it doesn't hurt to remember the theory that less is more

    WaltWiz's Dream Disney Resort - Frontierland

    Hoping to return to posting more about the park after Citrus Dreamin' is over (or nearly over) at best. Rest assured, even with that taking up most of my time, I haven't completely forgotten about this! In the meantime, I am more than open to answer any queries some of you might have...

    I'm all ears!

    Mirror Disneyland: One Final Edition (Seriously)

    Glad I could be of some insight! Gonna be interesting to see how your combination of both the original and final TDL plans comes together - knowing you, it's probably going to be worth the wait

    One Sentence Competition: The Prism of SYWTBAI - Game End

    Being on the team who was on the receiving end of that prank (and having done the part that almost got wiped thanks to it), it couldn't have happened under the worst possible circumstances. To have our work messed with after having a whole lot of other interferences in the way was...rough

    Citrus Dreamin' - Game Thread

    Yeah, it was a bummer that the direction I was pushing for wasn't the majority's pick, but like you and Joker said in the podcast, in the long run it was probably for the best that we went with a horror land first and foremost... ...and about the bolded, hopefully this current round will prove...

    Citrus Dreamin' - Game Thread

    Join the club. The part I worked on, and the one thing I agreed to do because I wasn't super well-versed in what we went with, is apparently gone because of what happened

    I in particular am seething because among the parts of our project that were affected was my contribution! Not cool, dude

    Changes to Peter Pan's Flight at Magic Kingdom

    Just a thought, and I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade here...should another Fantasyland expansion come, how about we focus on putting some legitimately new attractions into whatever available space there is and not just waste it by jigsawing in clones of pre-existing builds? The Magic...
