    Which Disney ride do you think will get the axe next?

    What I would like to see go and what I think will actually go are two very different things. I think Primeval Whirl (Dino-Rama in general), Speedway, and Laugh Floor should be replaced, among others... And suspect Journey into Imagination will be getting the ax (would be fine with this if we...

    ‘Moana’ Follow-Up Movie Set To Feature Disney’s First Latina Princess Reportedly In The Works

    Less than 9% of the population. Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner, Amy Sedaris, and John Oliver are all white TLK cast members, which more than covers that demographic if you want to nitpick. Confused as to what's causing so much grief here...

    Rumor Inside Out to Replace Journey into Imagination with Figment?

    I never claimed IO was edutainment; I said it had educational elements that could easily be translated into an edutainment-based ride, depending on the approach taken by WDI. IO uses fantastical metaphors to convey meaningful lessons which...yes, seems very much in the spirit of edutainment from...

    Rumor Inside Out to Replace Journey into Imagination with Figment?

    Inside Out very deliberately sets out to educate its audience, more so than your typical Pixar movie, so stripping the movie down to "colorful and entertaining" seems...super counter-productive to me. The "goal" was to teach young kids about the consequences of suppressing their emotions and how...

    5th gate question?

    Like most have already said, the likelihood of a fifth gate happening within the next few decades seems super low. Galaxy's Edge was costly, and the Epcot overhaul won't be cheap either. Ideally, I would like to see areas like Dinoland and Echo Lake gutted and replaced (not to conflate EL with...

    Wizards give smackdown to droids

    GE opened one month ago, and Pandora two years ago. IMO it seems more fair to compare these lands with opening day WWOHP, rather than with present-day WWOHP which has benefited from the blessings of trial & error and fresh insight that these lands have not. That’s where Dragon Challenge factors...

    HHN 2019 Sep 6 - Nov 2

    I would love to see an Us house. Between the carnival, the underground lab and the family beach house, there's plenty of material to work with. It's also the highest grossing horror movie released in 2019, isn't it?

    ‘Moana’ Follow-Up Movie Set To Feature Disney’s First Latina Princess Reportedly In The Works

    Because it takes place in Africa? This is a relief...A sequel to Moana should star Moana...and I'd rather we avoided another princess sequel. I'll gladly make an exception for Frozen (as the highest grossing animated film, with plenty of unexplained lore to expand on) but am hoping this won't...

    Green Cast ID Benefits

    You can definitely mention that experience when you apply with Disney! It helps to be familiar with certain policies, understand how CMs (including third party CMs) are expected to interact with guests, and to have previous experience with Disney orientations like Traditions (which you would...

    Wizards give smackdown to droids

    But again, if we’re judging the success of each land based on the ride experiences, where do the repurposed, sparingly themed Dragon Challenge & Flight of the Hippogriff factor into this discussion? I would argue FoP is vastly superior to FJ (not sure if this is controversial, but as fun as FJ...

    An Idea a day keeps the Doctors Away (Daily Open Brainstorming Prompts)

    A SVTFOE stage show would be great, that show doesn’t get enough appreciation in general let alone at the parks. Would also love to see a dark ride attraction for Gravity Falls, featuring Mabel, Dipper and Grunkle Stan animatronics (among others). Realistically speaking, I doubt a television...

    What attraction do you think Disney is going to replace Stitch’s Great Escape with?

    I get that IPs are still being tossed around, but do we know if the plan is still to build a basic simulator of some kind? If so, would love to see Wall-E or BH6 (if not in Epcot which would be my ideal, then at least in Tmrwland). Not so sure WIR is a good thematic fit, but then again neither...

    Damage Control PR Spin for Star Wars Begins

    Not sure that article has much to do with GE? Fans angered by TLJ "betraying the spirit" of the franchise (obviously YMMV on this, but I personally couldn't stand TLJ) won't necessarily overlap w/ potential visitors to GE, plenty of whom will be either casual fans or have no knowledge of the...

    News New Parade: Magic Happens

    Still playing catch-up on this thread. Is it true this parade will be premiering spring/summer of 2020? If so, this is all super disappointing. I understand PTN is an operational nightmare at the moment, but running Soundsational/MSEP back to back would at least bulk up the entertainment...

    Disney is going to price us out of the Kingdom..

    I don't think citing Amazon will ever support the case for ethical business practices. Amazon is as self-serving a company as you can possibly find, and Bezos has had plenty of practice lying about it.

    How Many Days for You? Part 12

    I hate to be the one to do this but.....about Paint the Night...

    If this is true, maybe MSEP is just a temporary fix to tide over holiday/Galaxy's Edge crowds while they attempt to smooth out all the issues with PTN? I hope.

    I hate to be the one to do this but.....about Paint the Night...

    Are we ruling out the possibility that this is for a D23 exhibit? That still seems like the most likely option to me, and glowing back into town doesn't necessarily mean it's coming back to the RESORT, right? Or maybe I'm just in denial. Loved MSEP but it's so far past its prime, and I've been...

    How to Utilize a Long Line at Walt Disney World

    If you download Heads Up (the app), there's a Disney Parks category that becomes free to play when you're on Disney property. It's a nice little perk, and super fun to play if you're in a long queue with some friends! It's gotten me through more than one FoP wait.

    Wizards give smackdown to droids

    It was supposed to open with both attractions in late 2019. Instead it opened several months ahead of schedule with one attraction. YMMV on whether this was a net gain or a lateral move for guests, but I can't really see a downside to it? Like I said, guests are welcome to visit the land in late...
