Western River Expedition? What Pixar film is that?

But how could they with how landlocked and restrictive their options are in Florida.... Seriously, though, if they cut back the rivers & island a bit DLR style to put a pathway back there that would lead to a Cars Land and the Villains land I don't think there would be many complaints.

Still expected to be changed over by 2026, presumably.

Assuming that the Cars ride uses the Test Track ride system, won't it get closed every time there are thunderstorms?

While there may be some at the company that are self-hating Americans I don't see that as the driving force. The driving force is, we all really know, money. And in 2024 the Cars IP is far more recognizable and profitable than a river and explorable island based on 19th century literature. It's...

Yep. Would be a good place to add to DL's mountain range. Only issue is if there are any height restrictions there, but unlike the DCA side of DF there's already the hotel and parking structure on each side the DL side, so a newer mountain attraction should probably be fine. Would be great if...

I'd wager a version of the Villains land would be under consideration on the DL side of DF.

Whether it goes in the Hollywood Backlot or in the Simba parking lot the Avatar land needs movement from DisneylandForward, so they can't be too far away from building a pedestrian bridge over a road on one side or the other. Edit: Corrected Pumba to Simba

I could see them needing it for another Avatar themed ride at some point, so it could be, even if it's not part of the actual walkways in the concept art.

Any hints out there on when Eastern Gateway project may start moving forward?

Solid point. I wonder what the view from Guardians will be like? Guess that would reinforce the Backlot concept.

Tron: Ares being a film about the Tron game aesthetic breaking into the real world likely helps with their options for the Tron IP.

It's the only thing I can think of that makes sense while trying to keep the theming of the Hollywood Backlot for Philharmagic/Animation/Hyperion/Trolley.

You're probably right - more likely to open in 2029-2031 timeframe before the Avatar 5 film's release.

Expanding on my second question in my last post - the 3rd Avatar film is scheduled to arrive in Dec. 2025 and Avatar 4 is scheduled for Dec. 2029. The announcement today stated that this new land is based on Avatar: The Way of Water and "upcoming Avatar films," and one would guess this land will...

Would also definitely prevent the elevation of the pedestrian bridge over Harbor from providing any awkward "looking in" sightlines if the back of the rock formation is similar to Radiator Springs. If it goes here my larger questions are actually: 1. How do they handle the transition(s) from...

So finally a new mission for the Millennium Falcon, this time with Mando & Grogu, but two years away still to match the movie's release timing. It's at least something to further break the land's overcooked timeline theming restrictions.

How big is the building for Frozen Ever After in Epcot? That's the size/scale of this ride I'm expecting.

Makes sense, as the ride will likely be ideal for more slowly drifting past the scenes which should be very music performance heavy.

Well, we know they committed to electrifying the Autopia cars by 2026, so there will probably be at least some other minor updates to go alongside that, even if it's just some overdue maintenance / spit & polish.
