Agreed. I thought the charm of that film is Monsters living a life quite similar to humans, and go to 9-5 jobs. I think the architecture looks 90% similar until you notice the charming monster-specific details — claws, spikes, teeth etc. I love that about the style of the film and makes it...

And again, you don’t realize it doesn’t matter. It’s a measure of willingness to experience an attraction whether it’s a show, ride, or anything in between. Muppets has one theater of 584 people and Flight of Passage has 4 theaters of 192 people each — people are willing to wait multiple times...

It means guests are willing to wait 10 minutes to experience the attraction, currently. And willing to wait 9 times as much (90 minutes) for the Tower of Terror attraction. Tower of Terror is a shorter experience but with higher capacity per hour, so makes the 90 minute vs. 10 minute difference...

Yep that’s the idea. Mickey’s got RR and the short is something we can just watch on Disney+. In this smaller theater we give Muppets a home that isn’t really critical to the theme of the surrounding area, and then allows Grand Ave to become something big Except Zootopia lol I don’t want that

Considering the limited paying crowd it actually gets (not free Internet “support”), Muppets would be very appropriate for the Mickey Shorts theater. They could give it a nice facade and actually fill those seats, maybe even enough to even make it a lightning lane. Can then open the way to use...

All of that Echo lake history, the hidden Mickey, one of the last remaining treasures of MGM, the iconic dinosaur, the petitions, the tweets, the sight lines, the availability of *other* space they can always use, etc.

Ok. I cant explain physics to you. If you want to believe water is weightless, that we live in zero gravity, that concrete structures last forever, or that their deterioration doesn’t compromise the reason they were built in the first place, go for it If you want to believe that a college...

“But it was one of the first attractions to let us drive!” “But it’s the perfect transition from Fantasyland to Tomorrowland!” But it’s what Walt wanted for us!” “But it was such a calm retreat from the hustle and bustle of the fast paced rides!” “But why didn’t it go somewhere else!” If it’s...

They’re on a ride or in line for the ride. They’re fully occupying those two spaces for at least the 60 minute duration of the line; which is a low ball. And we haven’t added those doing the same for the second ride, a potential store, and walkways And you’ve now reverted to a realistic...

I was being generous to the argument ROA / TSI has anywhere near as much capacity or space efficiency as this Cars proposal. Which isnt possible. In reality, I expect this ride to be much more comparable to RSR than half, and the queue will be able to hold much more than 60 minutes worth of...

No. You’re the one doing 2 different calculations I calculated the number of people fully occupying the riverboat, rafts, and TSI at a given moment. It’s 700 people, generously, physically occupying as much of ROA / TSI at the same time. These are the people “eaten” by these attractions that...

It is more efficient. Rough math: 100 = 2x rafts with 50 ppl each +100 = Let’s assume they allow 2x rafts full of people on the island at a given time (doubt it) +500 = let’s generously say that’s LB’s capacity = 700 people using ROA / TSI at a given time with generous assumptions Radiator...

Static equilibrium doesn’t mean the concrete isn’t under immense stress. A house, a skyscraper, and a tank of propane are all in static equilibrium, and its constituent materials and structure are working hard to keep it that way By the way, we’ve only been talking about transverse stress on...

So you would agree that a compromised riverbed would compromise its ability to maintain “aesthetics, to make sure the river stays exactly where the designers want it to be, so that there is a consistent, designed shoreline”? So if the park operators want to protect the “aesthetics, to make sure...

Or course it is. But just look at the wide walkways in the artwork on the right side, and compare to that to the river…or any part of TSI / ROA. Where do you have anywhere near that capacity today? We can’t see detail for a queue, but where do you have space for 60+ minutes worth of guests...

I I don’t mean looking at it in a picture. I mean physically examining it and understanding its condition. Nobody here has, yet many are pretty boldly claiming it’s fine nonetheless. I’m only stating it’s reasonably plausible that it’s not fine, and if it wasn’t fine, that it would be an...

Space efficiency is relative. Obviously Doctor Doom’s Fearfall is more space efficient than Radiator Springs Racers. I’m just saying that the use of overlapping tracks creates a more space efficienct layout because you are using vertical volume

What does this matter? The original claim was that the boat was “free floating” and the riverbed had no weight on it except for the track and the piers. We’ve now accepted that’s not true, good, but now we’re splitting hairs between the entire riverbed and one square foot of it. Sure, one square...

Not much. The entirety of the area of water is unusable except for those on the 1 riverboat and couple of rafts at a given time. The island’s capacity has to be minimal given the safety hazard of having an island packed full of people. Any theoretical count of how many people you can have...

No. The entire weight of the water has to be supported by the riverbed because of Earth's gravitational pull on all of the water, not just the part at the bottom. If the riverbed was only supporting the water directly above it (whatever that means...) the rest of the water would just fly off...
