Or how about putting all of these new areas and attractions into a new park and spare the existing parks. The existing parks are so big and so filled with E ticket rides, you can really only do about a third of them in one day.

I have no problem with change, I just don’t see any reason to remove iconic Disney attractions when there is enough land in Disney World to build three or four more theme parks. Wasn’t that the whole purpose Walt bought all the land? And another thing, Disneyland is much more landlocked and they...

I lived in SoCal in the 80’s and 90’s and some of the things that I mentioned happened in the 80’s at DL. But I agree, some were the 90’s. But my point is that the creative team that is at the helm right now is more comparable to the group that was in for those duds that i mentioned. Thank God...

Walt Disney once said, "Here in Florida, we have something special we never enjoyed at Disneyland... the blessing of size. There's enough land here to hold all the ideas and plans we can possibly imagine" Doesn’t sound like he would be a fan of ripping out iconic lands and attractions, when...

It’s iconic. If you search Magic Kingdom online, many times you will get a screenshot of the riverboat on the rivers of America. it’s one of the most recognizable parts of Magic Kingdom and Disneyland. That’s why Disneyland has never removed them, even though they are landlocked and always need...

I was thinking more along the lines of the Tiki Room “Under New Management fiasco, the removal of 20k Leagues Submarine mistake at WDW and at Disneyland the Light Magic “Parade” replacing the iconic Main Street Electrical Parade and Rocket Rods replacing the People Mover.

My thoughts exactly and this has been my fear for a while. They are taking out iconic rides and to be honest, this group doesn’t have enough talent to do that. Imagine if they would’ve removed pirates in the 80s and replaced it with some lame attraction like they were doing back then. This is...

I totally agree. We come from SoCal and usually spend between 7 and 9 days. We spent two weeks in Japan. If Disney had 5 parks, people would adjust their vacation schedules. Plus, a new park would get much more and longer traction than merely adding a land to an existing park. Can you imagine...

I think Star Tours, Muppets, Rivers of America, Riverboat, Tom Sawyers Island would be sorely missed. The Riverboat is especially iconic to WDW and DL

I don’t know. He’s also is part of a lot of misfires over the last few years. More misses than hits, recently.

You missed my point. I don’t mean Walt’s plan for anything specific at Walt Disney World, but the fact that he wanted so much land that he would never have to remove things to add things. Here’s his quote in 1966 about The Florida Project, “Here in Florida, we have something special we never...

Could possibly the Encanto ride be trackless? There was handmade furniture eluded to in the presentation and the concept art ride vehicles aren’t very revealing. It was my daughters thought that maybe you’ll ride on this furniture and if you do, it might be trackless.

They’ll have to remove capacity to add capacity, using existing parks. Disneyland has to do it because they’re landlocked, but there is room for 3 or 4 more parks at WDW. The sole purpose of having all of the land at WDW is so that they can keep building without having to remove things to do it...

My thoughts as well.

You don’t know. I know for a fact that there have been at least three balloon tests done since 1999, with one being done within the last three years. And who cares how many times it’s been discussed on this board? What does that accomplish? Disney will do what Disney decides to do, without...

Stop acting like you know for sure what Disney is planning. You don’t know, it’s just your opinion. I have Disney employee friends, some who work pretty closely with infrastructure and design, who were really looking forward to tonight’s presentation and announcements, so that they could find...

This is why there needs to be a fifth park at Walt Disney World. Simply replacing old lands at existing parks with new lands does not add enough new capacity. There is enough room at WDW for three or four more parks. At some point, it only makes sense to clear a big section and build a new...

Zero reasons to build a 5th park? I think it’s inevitable, especially with Universal catching up.

Three main takeaways. First off, I guess with the announcement of a villains land at Magic Kingdom, it puts the villains park off the table. Second, I am actually relieved that they didn’t announce a new park for Disney World. With the group that is in there right now, I don’t think they would...

Genie was rolled out during the pandemic and benefited greatly from the revenge travel phenomenon. Now that revenge travel is basically over and inflation is at historic levels, the average family can no longer afford an expensive vacation. Disney will not lower ticket prices, but they might...
