    News New Theater to be built at the Magic Kingdom - now cancelled?

    Whoever suggested a GOTG for a breakout style show, IMO, was spot on. It’s the same premis as SGE and fits in the land thematically as well as any other IP Disney has put in there. Also it would fit in that building with minimal up fitting. I’m not suggesting it’s what TL deserves or what we as...

    News New Theater to be built at the Magic Kingdom - now cancelled?

    Have other projects caused the cancelation? Or was the project cancelled due to its own cost/design issues (such as foundation/ground or even back of house operational issues cast parking/general access?)

    News New Theater to be built at the Magic Kingdom - now cancelled?

    Here’s hoping that the Fox aqusition made someone want to make a ride with all of Disney’s new IP. (Please be GMR 2.0)

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Based on the progress at DHS and comparing it to the progress in DL it looks like the FL entrance (entrance #3 in red circle) will be the missing entrance for DHS has anyone else been able to come to the same conclusion? Here are the aerials from each coast and the model for comparison. I'm...

    News Disney and Fox come to terms -- announcement soon; huge IP acquisition

    I don't think that is lost on them, I think they were just curious if there were any particular IP's besides the ones listed that could be integrated into the parks currently.

    News Disney and Fox come to terms -- announcement soon; huge IP acquisition

    National Geographic within AK is the only other one I can think of, maybe a Home Alone Christmas overlay somewhere in a park.

    Echo Lake Refurbishment

    I've been wondering this with each photo of the drained lake. What purpose does the pipe serve running along the bottom of the lake. I'm sure it's just for drainage or recirculation/filtering but it seems like if it were just one of those reasons the pipe could be run beneath the bottom of the...

    Hurricane Irma

    Travel Guard Trip Insurance is really good. Its very reasonable for what it covers and how much it cost, but to be honest at this stage I cant see any insurance company picking up a policy in FL, GA or SC

    Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway confirmed

    This may already be know but it was stated on the SWGE forum and thought some might appreciate seeing it here.

    RUMOR!-Fantasmic! to recieve updates or be replaced by 2020.

    I was going to say that it probably got axed from DHS because of proximity to a similar ride in RnR but then Space Mnt...

    RUMOR!-Fantasmic! to recieve updates or be replaced by 2020.

    Thanks for the info. To be honest I always felt like that amphitheater was a poorly designed afterthought (even for DHS). I enjoy F! but that area has always been terrible for guest flow and it feels like you walk 2 miles just to get there. A redesign of the F! plot and Theater of the Stars...

    RUMOR!-Fantasmic! to recieve updates or be replaced by 2020.

    Could you spare us any details on a ride type? Dark ride? I realize ideas and proposals die in a day but would you say it is more likely for a F! upgrade, replacement or removal for a new ride?

    News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

    Part of the size is due to show buildings existing inside the "berm" TSMM and the old GMR show buildings are each about 2/3 of the same footprint size as Alcatraz. Add on to that the numerous show buildings like Indiana Jones, MV3D, and a dedicated Fantasmic amphitheater and the acres start to...

    News New Theater to be built at the Magic Kingdom - now cancelled?

    Well, between this and the space restaurant in EPCOT these are my two favorite announcements from D23. This one in particular because it was a great surprise, it works well for the space and hits so many needed marks for the MK. I'm excited to see what this means for the rest of MSUSA too! If...

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    I think the biggest take away from the concept art is the absence of Communicore or Inoventions. It is hard to go back on a big noticeable change like that even if the concept is just blue sky, even the most causal of guest can look at the art and notice the absence of those buildings. With that...

    News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

    I wonder if this is a true third floor for the attraction or just a skeleton for the rock work? It seems like everything up to this point has implied only two show levels for the attraction. With the rock layering present in the concept art it would be a reasonable assumption that this could be...

    Where is Walt's plane? UPDATE - Coming to D23 2022

    I live in the Bluffton/Hilton Head,SC area, Just 25 min north of Savannah, I have spoken with quite a few individuals who work at Gulfstream and no one seems to know anything about the plane. I'll keep asking.

    Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I realize his opinion is not the most popular on here but you have to admit that there have been far worse proposals for the park and overall thematically it fits the best for what Disney seems to be doing these days. It would allow for a designated space for the latest and greatest IP to be...

    Volcano Hotel

    This is just my opinion but Typhoon Lagoon had not seen a new attraction since 2005, I think Universal wanted to compete with Disney in the water park market and saw that Disney wasn't making strides to update their water parks. Once Universal took over the WetnWild site in Orlando this gave...

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner -

    I think he is referring to the back up of gondolas coming into the station from the main line. If a platform detached line has room for 10 gondolas then there is only room for 10 gondolas in the platform. For safety they would probably like to only have 8 or so to give margin for error or, as so...
