    Five Worst Attractions at the Magic Kingdom

    Tron sucks to be honest, it took them ages to build it and it ended up being a super boring coaster that's also way too short. Lol compare it to any one of Universal's coasters and it's just so laughably inferior. So yeah in terms of headliners that would easily be the worst in my eyes. Outside...

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

    No, it's not represented in IOA. If you aren't familiar with it, the Savage Land is a location typically featured in X-Men comics. Actually there's a Wolverine comic coming out in a few days that's taking place there. If Marvel wants to keep promoting the X-Men so much, which they almost...

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

    For what it's worth. Disney does actually have an IP that might work for bringing dinosaurs back to the park. In the Marvel Universe there's a very popular location called the Savage Land. It's basically a lost world filled with dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures. If a Marvel movie or...

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

    I think Dinosaur was great attraction for a very long time, but the version that exists today has embarassingly poor show quality. The increased lighting, neon paint on the dinosaurs, reduced thrills, the asteroid being replaced with a static Carnotaurus head, and on and on. It's honestly...

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

    #1 problem with Dinoland U.S.A. was budget. Always was. The idea of a land set in the badlands with paleontological digs and fossils everywhere, with a thrill ride that takes you back in time to witness the extinction of the dinosaurs (and thus, the origin of the all fossils in the surrounding...

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

    All due respect, but to be honest that's not really true, and I think it's unfortunate that dinosaur media has made people think this is true. Dinosaurs are most effective when they are scientifically accurate. This has been proven countless times and the only reason people think otherwise is...

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

    What is the obsession with dinosaurs? What kind of question even is that? Dinosaurs are inherently interesting. They are culturally important and awe-inspiring creatures, exactly the type of thing we should want more of in Animal Kingdom. Rather than movie franchises like Indiana Jones or...

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

    Indy being more popular than Dinosaur has nothing, or very little, to do with the IP it's attached to. Hence why Splash Mountain was as popular as it was in spite of its IP, or why HM and PotC are as popular as they are regardless of their IP. Indy is just as good an attraction as pirates, I'd...

    Rumor D23 2024 WDW Rumors, Predictions & Discussion

    Hey everyone, been a while. All the news surrounding the parks (and my complicated feelings on it all) got me to come back out and post here again. So, I have just one question after not posting here for like a year or something. Can we get a Bob Iger meet & greet for Villains Land?

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    Ms. Marvel is honestly diversity done right. I'm not a huge fan of the character myself (I do not enjoy the whole teenage girl high school drama aspect, nor do I like the fangirl angle the character takes) but she's usually fairly well written, and her existence does not rely on legacy...

    News Wakanda joins Coco, Zootopia, and Encanto on Disney Parks' future blue sky expansion list, reveals Josh D'Amaro

    I see we're aiming for the bottom as usual, Mr. IPger. Really doing a great job of making me wholly disinterested in your "theme" (not really) parks.

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    Just for what it's worth: this does not surprise me in the slightest, but it's still disappointing to hear it confirmed.

    Unpopular opinions about the parks?

    HARD disagree on all of this. But I guess that's what this thread is for. you shoulda seen my other takes on this thread.... heheh I do agree GOTG is better than most of the other attractions we've gotten lately... the ride system and music are great, and the pre-show effects are good, but...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    But worse visuals, talent, soundtrack, etc. can all make a film less appealing as well. Not to mention what if cutting $$$ means hiring cheaper writers, directors, etc? Those will all affect the quality of your movie. Decreasing investment imo will not necessarily increase profit margins, they...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    I think TWDC needs to be careful with cost cutting though Solely decreasing the amount of $$$ they invest in their films will only make them less appealing to consumers. So instead of increasing ROI, what they'd end up doing is probably just decreasing revenue and keeping ROI the same. What...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    Spider-Verse doesn't contradict my argument though, because it's not blah or inoffensive and people are going to see it because it's quality and because it's based on one of the biggest IPs in entertainment history. It's Spider-Man. Never underestimate the importance of quality in a film's...
