Indiana Jones at TDS is getting a 1 year refurb starting in March 2025. This follows a trend of several other long refurbs in the past year. Sinbad is currently down for 6 months, PotC was down for 6 months last year, Hunny Hunt was down for 4 months this year. Over at USJ in Osaka, Jurassic...

This has got to be the most "unpleasent" ride across all Disney parks. They could use this space for something so much better.

Not sure where else it would go in TDL. What expansion land does that park have left?

Call me cautious but I’m not going to read too much into this. An office moving could be for many reasons not related to D23. I think we’re still pretty in the dark on this. If this was 100% not going in Muppets I feel like they would have clarified by now as it’s hitting in some mainstream...

This was tastefully done. Hopefully this means they're learning. I feel like a couple years ago they would've just ripped them out, replaced them with some scenery and called it a day.

This looks like a really good and tasteful way of handling these kinds of changes.

I think a better question: what's left at Disneyland Park? The only new projects are TBA this year and Walt Disney: A Magical Life in 2025. Wonder if we may see no new investments at DL for a while as the focus shifts to Forward (not a bad thing given the company's current track record).

It's 100% getting rid of Splash. Nothing is on the level of destroying one of your most beloved attractions ever due to a PR panic during a tense socio-political movement. That was a real turning point for me as far as how much I get invested in the parks looking forward.

TEA 2023 attendance report is out USJ keeps its spot as the #1 most-attended park in Asia (and #3 worldwide) for the second year in a row. TDL remains #2 while TDS slips to #5 on account of major growth at Chinese parks post-COVID restrictions, namely SDL and Chimelong Ocean Kingdom. One niche...

If the rumor of waiting until the election to make a decision is true, it's a terrible idea and reeks of political favoritism - regardless of who the individual candidates are.

Pretty sure it's a new build. Simpsons is the same building and ride system as BTTF and is super aged now.

I was thinking Imagination. If Muppets is going for Monsters, I think we're going to know this year and the HoP Muppets will be announced at the same time.

I think parks fans overestimate the popularity of Muppets today. Disney has tried repeatedly to get the Muppets to be popular again in today's day and age and my sense is that it hasn't really worked (maybe the 2011 movie was one exception as it had a decent box office return). MV3D is a cult...

TDL still might get rid of their ROA. It's one of the most heavily looked at sites for future expansion there.

Some of our insiders have commented about how there are entire task forces and committees within the company aimed at examining everything in the parks for "problematic" content to rectify (this is usually the primary goal of company DEI departments since they need to justify their existence)...

Seems like we're forgetting about the worldwide pandemic that ground the company's revenue to a halt in the middle of the Epcot overhaul.

I seem to recall hearing that carpet was replaced at Universe of Energy the week it closed.

From Micechat:

Not a fan of this. Would it mean the president AAs would be gone? That's a really unique and creative "living history" tradition that would be sad to see ended.

While this is sad, and I think Cars does not belong anywhere in MK or Frontierland, I am honestly not that miffed about this on account of MK's RoA being a copy. I think DL's RoA is the more sacred land here. But without getting too political: It's undeniable that a part of what is motivating...
