Isn't Fantasy Springs 35 acres?

Seems like the Railroad will still need to close regardless if they are transporting materials back and forth. I hope some of the land beyond the railroad goes to villains. Want the land to be a decent size.

Wait a minute, does that mean the Villains Land might end up WEST of Big Thunder Mountain?

I think the controversy surrounding Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn (with both novels containing stereotypes and racist slurs used to refer to Black people and Native American people) is only indirectly responsible for the closure of Tom Sawyer's Island. By that, I mean that there aren't active...

Maybe it will depend on how Avatar: Fire and Ash performs. If it's another $2 billion hit, then an expansion may be more likely. If the franchise loses momentum and it somehow made only $1 billion or less, then maybe they would hold off.

Back when Pandora first opened, there was chatter about the possibility for future expansion of the land when the sequels came out, with a rumored attraction being some type of walk through that would allow guests to interact with animatronic Pandoran wildlife (with the centerpiece being a giant...

I thought the last 20 minutes wer the most interesting and where it felt like it went in a really new and exciting direction. I have seen all of the Alien movies and prequels but only about once or twice each so I likely missed a lot of the callbacks that annoyed some fans.

I think Tom Sawyer's island is a well themed area of the park, but I acknowledge the reality that the area is completely dead most of the time and that the Tom Sawyer brand isn't relevant to today's kids. Throughout the 20th Century, Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn were taught in almost every school...

I saw Alien Romulus last night. While not the best Alien movie, it was definitely the scariest. I liked it better than Prometheus and Alien Covenant.

I think the Haunted Mansion is the right type of balance for both spooky and fun that that villain's land should strive for. Maybe one of the E-tickets could be Tower of Terror-esque in tone, but I think Haunted Mansion is the best type of vibe for the overall land. The Meet and Greets can be...

I agree about the whole ride being dated. I think the gist of the ride is fine, but all of the animatronics need to be swapped out and it needs new lighting and effects.

ROA and TSI are being mostly replaced by Cars, which will be for children. Villain Land will occupy unbuilt space and the northern portion of ROA.

Those short kids still have the rest of the park. Nothing is being taken away from them, this is an expansion. Besides, think of all of the older kids and teens who feel alienated by Dumbo the Flying Elephant or the Jedi Training that's only allowed for young children?

I'm sure they consulted people, but that doesn't mean they did a great job. After all, Native Americans were consulted for Pocahontas and THAT was still an extremely controversial and problematic film. One part of the problem for the company deciding what to do is that Native Americans (like...

The new guy in the middle behind the drum is ... kinda hot? Anyway I think this is an improvement from the extremely offensive caricatures that were there before. I don't think it entirely eliminates the inherent issue of the source material treating Native Americans as fantastical as...

Lol. I feel I've been mostly consistent in my thought process. Here are the thoughts I've generally expressed about the retheme: 1. Splash Mountain was my favorite Disney World ride and it is a crown jewel of Disney imagineering, but I also was sympathetic to wanting to retheme an attraction...

Maybe the rethemed Pooh ride could actually be a sequel to Tiana's Bayou Adventure? Now that Tiana has hired a new band of critters, she realizes she needs to pay them a livable wage. Not wanting to mooch off of Naveen's parents, Tiana returns to the bayou. But this time, instead of looking...

Villains land won't be too much for children. It will be for children who LIKE thrills and scares. There are many kids that want thrills and don't want to feel treated like babies. The villains land would cater to them as well as teens and adults.

Maybe they can retheme Winnie the Pooh to something else that takes place in the bayou, like the Rescuers or another Pirates ride.

This is terrible PR for Disney. The company comes across as very slimy when they pull crap like this.
