In this case, no. I actually didn't consider Babes in the Woods until now. Tim Burton's Hansel & Gretel is such an inside joke to me and @TheOriginalTiki that I had to include it for nostalgia's sake. Let's assume that in this alternate universe, Hansel & Gretel was not shunned by Disney as it...

Dang Wikipedia lied to me!!

In the late 1980s, CEO Michael Eisner challenged WED to design for Disneyland an attraction based on Disney Animation’s then-biggest hit: The Little Mermaid. Imagineer Tony Baxter was again assigned to lead the design on the new attraction, a true successor to the Fantasyland dark rides of...

Unfortunately, that day is pushed back! :p Ended up helping my grandma with something and it took the whole day up. This is the perfect opportunity to announce an attraction for Tomorrowland: Carousel of Progress: Innoventions CommuniCore Starcruiser, Starring Christopher Walken 20,000 Leagues...

Gonna try and get Fantasy Forest up tonight.

Tomorrowland it is! Truth be told, Cars Land hasn't crossed my mind just yet, but it might. It would logistically make the most sense at Disney-Universal, but that park is going to have A LOT in it as it is.

Dumbo the Flying Elephant opened at Disneyland on August 16, 1955, almost a month to the day of Disneyland’s official opening, and was an instant success with children and families. Believe it or not, something Opening Day visitors didn’t see was an elephant fly! In 1957, a figure of Timothy Q...

Traveling from the Castle Village, we enter Small World Plaza (or “Small World Mall”), the first “Sub-Land” introduced to Fantasyland in 1966. A myriad of pastel colors and gold accents adorn the wide promenade that is Small World Plaza. An area utilized more for parade viewing and...

That sounds great to me! If you want to and even have the time to, feel free to contribute! All I ask is that it's the backdrop to Castle Village. If we were in real-life Disneyland, it would be located exactly where Dumbo is today, directly north of King Arthur's Carrousel and, in this case...

I figured starting with the Matterhorn versus the Castle would spice things up haha. I was going to ask for assistance in creating a ride-through for Mary Poppins, so if that would be something you were interested in coming up with for this project (and yours), I'd gladly welcome it! Only if...

Sorry it's so delayed, but these things take time! Here's Part One of Fantasyland. Fantasyland Once upon a time there was a grass-covered mound of earth called Holiday Hill. “You know, Joe,” Walt said to construction boss Joe Fowler, “why don’t we make some snow and have a toboggan ride...

I've been working on Fantasyland when I've been able this past week. Gonna tryyyyyy to get it out no later than next week, even if it is done in parts!

And now, the long overdue remainder of the Central Plaza. Sorry this one took so long, folks, I really hate detailing this area more than most others but feel a natural obligation to doing so before moving on. Also, to backtrack on an initial post, I will be going into Fantasyland next since...

Well, that was weird. :p Now that that's out of the way, I'll have the rest of the Central Plaza coming soon. Apologies for the delays. @WaltWiz1901, I'm probably going with Pooh's Hunny Hunt but am for sure taking that concept art and running with it to some extent!

Yep!

Yep! I'm looking forward to seeing what it brings, but for the most part, it has no effect on Mirror Disneyland. Mirror Disneyland has the 5,000 acres for growth, real-life Disneyland does not. So, in the mirror timeline, it isn't a necessary thing for expansion to buy out new properties and...

She doesn't know about it haha, but she does know I armchair Imagineer in my free time when I'm able. I've been armchair Imagineering since 2008, so it's been apart of my life for forever it feels like. Everything is written in the Google Doc and copied and pasted over here. Truthfully, I like...

Disneyland Forward is so interesting to me, because how much of it will actually happen, I don't know. I live 16 miles away from Disneyland, so at least I'll have the opportunity to see things in person when the time comes, but by then I'd hope Mirror Disneyland is long since over with and...

I haven't yet decided! I like Runaway Railway a lot, but because I'm going to have a Runaway Trolley ride in there, it might be too much having both. I prooooooomise the Central Plaza post is coming, guys. Thanks for waiting. It'll be out this week.

Since that's in the other park, it'll still be some time away before we cover the attractions there. Like Mickey's Toontown in real-world Disneyland (prior to 2023), the music is mostly taken from the Golden Age of Cartoons from the '20s through the '50s, with some nods even to the '80s and...
