    News New Haunted Mansion Grounds Expansion, Retail Shop Coming to Disneyland Resort in 2024

    At the same time, the shop has essentially the smallest footprint of any shop in the park. I imagine it will be cramped. Maybe an outdoor shop would have been better. I think ideally a garden themed outdoor shopping space in Magnolia Park would complement the Mansion well, but that space is now...

    Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind vs Radiator Springs Racers

    These seem to be two totally different attractions, although arguably they are both the star attraction of their respective parks. It depends on what you're looking for in an attraction. The thrill and soundtrack is better for Cosmic Rewind, and the queue is debatably more interesting. The...

    News Coco Boat Ride Coming to Disney California Adventure

    We're getting two boat rides, but a boat ride through the mind would be perfect for Inside Out.

    News New Haunted Mansion Grounds Expansion, Retail Shop Coming to Disneyland Resort in 2024

    Oh I understand it's not referencing it, I'm just saying that we finally have a Haunted Mansion carriage house after all these years.

    News New Haunted Mansion Grounds Expansion, Retail Shop Coming to Disneyland Resort in 2024

    I just realized this, but the gift shop is based on a carriage house. There was originally going to be a carriage house for Phantom Manor, so it harkens back to history.

    They've done that for years. Smells terrible back there.

    News Avatar Experience coming to Disneyland Resort

    DCA went from three play areas to one. I think it's only fair each park has one, something for the little kids to expend energy. It creates a balanced portfolio for a park.

    News New Haunted Mansion Grounds Expansion, Retail Shop Coming to Disneyland Resort in 2024

    If they could get it to smell better back there, they should do lightning lane like this: Also, would be nice if they could figure out a way to make the general line ADA accessible. Or build a better ADA loading queue.

    News New Haunted Mansion Grounds Expansion, Retail Shop Coming to Disneyland Resort in 2024

    Solving a problem isn't always ineptitude. Sometimes sacrifices have to be made. I am hopeful that Pieces of Eight stays though.

    News New Haunted Mansion Grounds Expansion, Retail Shop Coming to Disneyland Resort in 2024

    I ascribe to the theory that they are moving HM merch here so they can close Le Bat En Rouge and make that part of a new Pirates queue. Haunted Mansion and Pirates are the only E-Tickets I can think of that have huge makeshift queues bleeding into walkways, and they are fixing Haunted Mansion's...

    News Paradise Pier Becoming Pixar Pier

    Not that they should develop on that serene space between Thunder and TSI, but there is definitely room for something. That space I measured to be .84 acres, which is about the size of Midway Mania with the queue included. It is larger than Spider-Man and Little Mermaid. It is larger than...

    News Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Historical Construction/Impressions

    What Galaxy's Edge really needs is to take the small roaming shows and character philosophy from Avengers Campus. Timeline be darned. Have characters from all sorts of Star Wars media that people care about. Obviously the original trilogy. Luke, Leia, Han, Lando, Vader. Have prequel characters...

    Avengers Campus: E-Watch! (Waiting on the new ride)

    I'm not sure how much space they have to spread out kids and do training with them, but they could repurpose the Doctor Strange show into something more training academy-esque. Bring out a bad guy and have kids use their latent sorcerer powers to defeat them.

    News Avatar Experience coming to Disneyland Resort

    Monstropolis fits California Adventure well imo. Especially the 2012-2016 era. California Adventure works best when it explores the archetypes of locales in California. Radiator Springs isn't in California, but it represents car culture and the deserts. Grizzly Peak isn't a real California...

    News Avatar Experience coming to Disneyland Resort

    I was pondering the same thing. If it's an expansion, it has to be a legitimate draw for the land. And if it's a D-ticket, it needs good capacity, which is tough to do in such a small space. Some sort of high-capacity simulator could make sense, given DCA is lacking one (sans Soarin'). Although...

    News Coco Boat Ride Coming to Disney California Adventure

    Yeah, this has been shown for modern tourism during Olympic summers. But, it might be nice to have something under construction that could entice those Olympic visitors to book a trip in a few years.
