I was referring to the companies (Pixar, Lucasfilm, etc.) that were acquired and account for the majority of dedicated real estate. Wasn't intended as a criticism at all. In fact, I consider it very good business and I like it a lot. But thanks so much for your thoughtful comments, Captain.

How about "Adventures in Disney Acquisitions?"

I believe this to be a good option but they would have to move the road first to expand the park around the back of muppets courtyard like this: The SoA area could be used for construction staging for both TSL and SWL then eventually be its own phase. Just a thought This isn't just a "good...

Given the expanse that Toy Story Land will occupy, it is feasible that a highly detailed, (perhaps, even full-service) Pizza Planet will be constructed within its borders. I'm not comfortable interpreting construction permits; perhaps someone who is can review what's been filed for TSL to see if...

How about Runaway Brain?

Could it be because "We're all mad here?"

Buzz, Stitch, MI Laugh Floor and Astro represent the kiddification of Tomorrowland. Codgers like us (yeah, I also remember the good old days when the AAs ran on punch cards) get dragged to these attractions by the grandkids, but we can't persuade them to take a second ride on the COP ever again...

... and much of the parking lot can be re-purposed with the construction of a multi-level parking garage.

Well, I doubt that the decision-makers read these posts for suggestions, but it seems to me that moving the Indy Jones Stunt Show to the Backlot would be a reasonable option. It's a reliable people eater, wouldn't cost all that much, and must be fiscally smarter than leaving that space idle...

This may be true, but I'd suggest you take a look at Disney's 1943 Academy Award nominated short "Reason and Emotion."

Neither can I. The only determining factor for filling the available space at DHS is merchandising opportunities. There are a zillion Star Wars toys, and more on the way. What can you tie in to Indiana Jones? Hats and whips.

...and the ride itself is a xenophobe's worst nightmare.

I'm feeling real good about Mine Mound.

"Dwarf Mountain" sorta sizes it up.

Why not a guest-accessible attached to a rake?

I'm a 65 year-old boy. As I remember it, Walt's first weekly TV show was actually called "Disneyland," and he used it to promote the park even before it opened. Each month typically featured a program "from" one of the four initial sections of the Park (Fantasyland, Adventureland, Tomorrowland...

mea culpa:(

I'm (probably) older than all of you. I recall Walt describing what became the city of Celebration when he talked about EPCOT. Later, when somebody was desperately seeking financing for the second park, he shoved the table models of Future World and World Showcase together at the last minute and...

2012: Star Tours 2.0 2013: Rapunzel's Toilets and, if the rumors are true, an enhanced queue at Peter Pan's Flight. 2017: one more AA in the Hall of Presidents.

The more I stare at the artwork, the more I'm thinking that the Dwarfs' (sic) cottage will be the gift shop and the string of buildings opposite Pooh will be the loading area for the Mine Train. Have I missed any posting that would definitively undermine this notion?
