    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    That's a great one too. But man, that launch with the trumpets in September blasting is so good. Regarding Indy, is there any reason IJA hasn't been brought to Disney sooner? With how popular it is in DL, you think they would've copied it over here. Especially around 2008 when Crystal Skull...

    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    I do wish they had a bigger part in the ride, atleast in the queue. But I think the mixture of the space battles & the music* make it feel enough like Guardians. I love the part after the pre-show where the Guardians theme is playing, it makes me feel like a superhero. *I also like how the...

    Projects you're glad were cancelled

    Yeah, I can't deny how good Diagon is. Best themed land there is, I just wish it had a good ride lol

    Rumor LM Racing Academy Replacement in the works for Hollywood Studios?

    This idea seems pretty redundant when they supposedly want to do a villains land. If they're putting anything here, I'd like for it to be a Roger Rabbit ride so it'd fit the supposed theme of Sunset Blvd. But they won't do that, so I just say keep this Cars show. Kids like it & I guess it...

    Projects you're glad were cancelled

    I'd personally have liked that to happen. But I think that it would have taken away alot from IOA's Potter section; it wouldn't be a draw for that park anymore at that point.

    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Outside of a Rise style dark ride with cool animatronics of the characters, I think this is a good representation of the series. IMO it captures the spirit of the space battles in those movies. Ships in the Guardians movies are real fast & zip around like the coaster does. The Guardians trilogy...

    Projects you're glad were cancelled

    Where at though? AFAIK Islands doesn't have the most room for expansions. I don't see how they can really expand Hogwarts itself with how its currently placed there; I guess you could have a queue that "tunnels you in" or something? I think using Hagrid & the forest sections of the Hogwarts...

    Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith vs The Incredible Hulk Coaster

    Hulk for me. I think it's more thrilling & it's definitely more visually appealing, it adds a lot to IOA's aesthetic. I do think it's starting to show its age though & that Velocicoaster does everything Hulk does but way better. RnRC is fun but it's over too quickly & it's pretty cheesy...

    Mickey vs Mario as pop culture icons?

    I really enjoyed the Mario movie. It wasn't amazing but it was just some nice, simple fun. It doesn't reach the highs of recent animated greats like Puss in Boots: The Last Wish or the Spider-Verse movies but it didn't need to. It did well at what it set out to do.

    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Oh my bad, that makes a lot of sense. For some reason, I had imagined they'd access the pad behind Na'Vi River. Keep those ones in the back of wherever they're used though. They're on their last legs as is. I'd say just tear it down & replace it with something new at this point. The entire...

    Honestly, I don't care when they do it. I just think it'd be cool if they did more in general.

    Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith vs TRON Lightcycle / Run

    Eh, Rip Ride Rockit exists. I'm not particularly big on either RnRC or Tron, but RnRC takes this easily. Tron is such a lackluster ride, the only thing impressive thing about it is how it looks. It's still fun like most coasters are but it's the least fun one in WDW.

    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Honestly, I wish they'd use one of the expansion pads for dinosaurs. Give us a real dinosaur land that could give IOA's Jurassic Park a run for its money. The carnival parking lot has to go. That'd be very awkwardly placed lol I don't think they can use Tarzan often due to rights issues.

    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    I'd love for a bigger Lion King presence in DAK but where would that go? AFAIK, most of the expansion pads are near Asia or Pandora. It'd be very odd to not have the Pride Lands connected to the existing Africa land.

    Mickey vs Mario as pop culture icons?

    I think this is a big problem with Mickey right now. The toddler based shows are most of the output for the character nowadays & the character is becoming associated with stuff for babies. The Rudish shorts helped a bit but they never got the push they deserved to become big; they were pushed...

    News 2023 EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays

    It's a great way to emphasize the various cultures of the world. I wish they'd expand it to have similar events for other religious holidays. Let's have a bigger Chanukkah presence, Diwali, an Islamic holiday, etc...

    Mickey vs Mario as pop culture icons?

    Mickey benefitted from TV airings of the classic shorts during this time. I became a super fan at a super young age because of those shorts airing on the Disney Channel. I don't think most of those shorts have aired on TV in 20 years & they're very clunkily added on Disney+. It's a shame that...

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    Outside of the portal effects (great use of screens there), I agree. But I can see the suits thinking the screens are apart of why it's so beloved.

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    Screens are best used for backgrounds & quick moments. I think Rise of the Resistance does that pretty well; great sets, some cool animatronics & screens are largely used in the background. I hope so. But I feel we'd need to get more Eisner-style leadership to get that again; someone who...
