    News New Play Pavilion to replace Epcot's Wonders of Life

    The gateway communities to places like Dinosaur National Monument and Petrified Forest National Park are overloaded with tacky dinosaur statues and there outright is a "Dinosaur World" next to Dinosaur Valley State Park in Texas. The Chester and Hester giftshop is actually good at nailing that...

    News New Play Pavilion to replace Epcot's Wonders of Life

    It's not even the right kind of roadside tourist trap for a dinosaur theme. Tacky dinosaur parks tend to not have carnival rides, just janky sculptures of prehistoric beasts lurking in the woods that sometime allow you to drive through or even take a tram ride. In other words, they should have...

    News Announced: Mary Poppins Attraction in UK Pavilion

    Tsupro's been making a pretty active push for the brand in the West the last few years ever since they won back their international distribution rights from Chaiyo and its been picking up a lot of steam. The Marvel book was only a small part of their expansion strategy and admittedly, there's...

    News Announced: Mary Poppins Attraction in UK Pavilion

    On a similar note of leveraging outsider properties they have some distributional involvement in, what they should be doing with the Japan Pavilion. Like the fact that Ultraman sales are wiping the floor with every Disney brand in China right now according to Tsuburaya Productions's own earnings...

    Moana, Mirabel and Figment meet and greet details confirmed for Walt Disney World

    Mickey being a harmless inoffensive mascot is much older then the preschool shows. Like it's the main reason Donald, Goofy and Pluto's careers soared, the later Mickey shorts in the original run were basically showcases for other characters to be funny since Mickey becoming the face of the...

    Moana, Mirabel and Figment meet and greet details confirmed for Walt Disney World

    They're the zaniest the characters have ever been, but there's a sincere passion on display for the entire history of the company throughout Paul Rudish's run. It's long been a running gag in popular culture that Mickey is boring and unfunny because of his need to be the ever smiling mascot, but...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Its the most neglected part of Disney's empire and park primaries love them some underdogs. I've said this before and angered the website's resident unhinged Muppet hater in doing so, but I still see a "Figment, Dreamfinder and Muppets" collab solution as a solid way to go. Dreamfinder already...

    News Hatbox Ghost coming to Walt Disney World's Haunted Mansion

    The portraits don't even transform and of course, the Ghost Registry pages that are part of the AR scavenger hunt portion of the campaign are definitely temporary.

    News Splash Mountain retheme to Princess and the Frog - Tiana's Bayou Adventure

    Let's be real, the brief 2D revival was just Bob Iger trying to win favor with Roy Disney. Roy died after Princess and the Frog's premiere and...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Exactly. Under New Management was also one big joke about how stupid the premise of injecting cartoon IP into a pre-existing ride was. And we almost had a third example with the whole "Let's retheme Superstar Limo to the Muppets while its still operating and have temporary Muppet construction...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Again, I don't think mocking Figment fans was the intent with the current version when the Eric Idle solo version was so hated. You're basically watching Figment beat the crap out of that guy that told guests they were creatively braindead for seven minutes. It's just that topical humor like...

    Also the blimp projection in the Odyssey. Honestly, it's more progress then just selling nostalgia merch and comic books.
