Bit of stretch on my part. But, this makes me think of a concept for an attraction that was planned DHS, but never built. I believe Dick Tracy's Crime-Stoppers was supposed to put guests in the middle of the action and include an interactive element. Fast-forward 20+ years, update technology...

I was picturing four per cockpit with multi-level loading and using a variation of the Pandora's box technology (each cockpit having an independent axis off of a cross beam allowing some unique control for each simulator unit). The windows of the cockpits would be screens. It will be...

Have to disagree on the timing for the DHS redo. I suspect we will see construction start on TSL soon, hopefully after the new fiscal year begins, and SW to begin around 2017 in Orlando as well. Sounds like there's more to be announced for DHS, MK and EPCOT. I believe Disney will want those...

This has been my assumption since the announcement. Just found some of the speculative posts regarding those signature SW attractions in DHS curious.

Regarding timing of the SW expansion, my hope is that Disney will not want want major construction underway in one of the four parks during the WDW 50th anniversary celebration. Hopefully you can help with some confusion. Seems like there have been a few posts alluding to the possibility of...

I was aware of major decisions coming from Burbank. But, not TDO not being around. Then, that should give those who are expressing fears about TDO's negative impact a bit of a reason to more optimistic.

I suspect that Burbank, not TDO, is making decisions with the DHS redo.

Sorry Dave. In short, I hope to see more C-ticket rides to make the park more robust.

As I'm sure everyone else here can do, I can throw on my "Armchair Imagineer" hat and come up with multiple general concepts for E-tickets. And, I'm confident WDI would love (and will probably get a chance) to implement a couple more of their top-shelf ideas at DHS. However, the thing I now...

Or may be announced during the D23 Expo in November.

I guess the big question is how quickly Disney wants to complete TSL.

IF, the $2.8 billion budget is correct, it seems to make sense to not announce everything now. SW made the splash, but it sounds like it will take a few years. TSL appears to provide some short-term relief. With other unannounced additions between the two, Disney could simply increase the...

Makes sense. However, assuming that the LMA practice area is used on a regular basis, I'm curious if all practice activities can be shifted to the actual performance arena or offsite? If not, then it seems LMA could close sooner than later and there would be one less major attraction during...

Have to agree. I usually err on the side of defending Disney. However, I'm rather disappointed that, for example, one or more dark rides for Pixar were not announced. 11 acres for TSP with 2 attractions of this nature seems a bit underwhelming. Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled with the...

Please pardon me for missing this if posted earlier...has there been an official announcement stating that there will be only two rides?

Drones suspending a giant screen. ;)

A building that seems to be a standalone has appeared over the last few weeks in photos taken from behind the Rainforest Cafe. That building appears in the left foreground in the Avatar model at D23. Any thoughts on what it may be (restaurant, shops, "welcome center")

Just bored waiting for updates from D23. Bottom line...I still think a DHS re-do would be completed prior to WDW's 50th no matter which park starts a particular project first.

Just a couple of thoughts regarding Star Wars in the parks... If I recall correctly, Miceage had previously shared that, according to their sources, work on Marvel/Star Wars attractions would not take place there until after the 60th anniversary celebration concluded. If they are correct...

IMO, yes. I believe the over-the-top characters, humor, music, action and setting would lend themselves well to a ride that included a combination of screens and AAs.
