    DHS Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

    Of course it opens right when us UCF students are beginning our final exams for our Fall Semester 😂 That just means we get a nice treat after we stress for a week.

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    The only issue I have right now with Tron is the sightlines. And even then, only one case: Fantasyland. Standing beside Pinnochio's gives you a wonderful view of the peak of the coaster in the showbuilding, that initial block-break after the outdoor portion. It's going to be even more...

    News Primeval Whirl at Disney's Animal Kingdom experiencing extended downtime

    Something that could be done without visible maintenance is ride vehicle rebuilds. If they're attempting to improve restraints to prevent individuals from falling out, all ride vehicles would have to be taken to Central Shops and rebuilt. They've done it before for other attractions, but it's...

    DHS Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

    If I had to guess, the resources sacrificed from M&M accelerated the production schedule on Rise. Afterwards, the teams transition back to M&M and get that open in the spring. DLR does not have a M&M currently at the same stage of construction, and as such, is lacking the resources Orlando has...

    News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

    People are getting excited because it's the first new attraction added to this park since NFL's Seven Dwarfs in 2014. People are getting excited because it's a high-speed launch coaster with a relatively unique sitting position. People are getting excited because it's an addition to the...

    EPCOT Inside Out to Replace Journey into Imagination with Figment?

    I've heard horror stories about the maintenance issues of the turntables for both UOE and JII. It's insane those things ever moved to begin with. It's always a treat when I get to talk to old Epcot imagineers - their stories are absolutely riveting.

    News Coronado Springs Expansion - Gran Destino Tower

    Apologies. Lots of people come onto the thread suddenly every once in a while proclaiming the Skyliner's presence at that resort without doing any fact checking, and it gets quite annoying.

    News Coronado Springs Expansion - Gran Destino Tower

    Again, you are mis-informed. Coronado does not have the Skyliner. And i'm fairly certain there are people who appreciate CSR just as much as you appreciate every other resort. And people who despise other resorts more.

    They most certainly have good lighting designers, that's for sure.

    EPCOT Inside Out to Replace Journey into Imagination with Figment?

    And pretty stable, too. Steve Alcorn's "Theme Park Design" states it was fully operational months before Epcot was due to open.

    News Tomorrowland love

    There's a big difference between easy and the installation and development of several groundbreaking attractions, relocations of whole attractions, and construction that would render the land unusable for 2-3 years, if all done at once. It may be the easy choice, in your eyes, but it is far...

    I think you have a very different definition of easy compared to literally anyone in the industry

    DHS Indiana Jones stunt show update?

    DAK is the one park we don't have any solid announced additions / rumors for right now, outside of the addition of Club 33. I have to imagine there's something to be said for it to round out the Orlando part of the presentation at D23.

    PotC mist screen removed/turned off for good

    They did. Linked below is a really great video about the development and installation of the attraction, compressed down into a 30 minute presentation. It's honestly one of my favorite theme park talks out there. I have it linked to start when they're talking about the "Water Ceremony," but I...
