I'm willing to hold off judgment on Cars at MK, but please put the frontierland name out of its misery. Rename it Westerland, Wildernessland, or anything else.

Haha, they just breezed past any info on Test Track beyond just "2025". Is being withholding to Epcot fans Josh's favorite pastime?

Won't get suckered in by nostalgic music. Wont' get. suckered. in. Dang it. They suckered me.

I think a lot of folks have similar variations on this idea. In fact it was talked about in this thread roughly a month ago, with MerlinTheGoat sketching out their take on the idea:

Let’s be real, the marketing department probably didn’t think twice about the implication of naming the panel that. I’ll be shocked if they even give a passing acknowledgment to the ride, never mind anything grander. I think they’re going to stream on Disney+ this year?

There’s no reason they couldn’t have a new take on “design your car” in the post show area of TT3.0. However, I doubt that’ll happen. Single Rider is shown in the exterior concept art for v3.

I’m not surprised the time has come to replace it. That’s fine. I also don’t doubt a 2k sf lounge will host more people in an hour than a shooting arcade with 10-12 guns. That’s pretty self evident. My issue is people using anecdotal data and personal preference as fact. I also don’t love the...

It was advertised as an attraction by Disney & had a steady stream of people at it for decades. What more do you need? It’s fine to not care that it’s leaving, but that doesn’t necessitate pretending nobody used the thing.

I completely agree about the need to move back upstairs. The location of Imageworks in v4 will be a real canary in the coal mine for v4's quality level. Even if they keep the v2/v3 track layout, moving Imageworks upstairs would give a lot of space to a well-themed queue after the lobby and a...

If Gustin's tweeting about it, it's more than a 0% chance. That guy is very tied in with WDW & strikes me as someone who's very calculated in what he editorializes about.

Not saying it’s a major problem, but it’s been there a while and utilizes a facility that is capable of a lot more than what it’s used for. At the very least, it could be utilized for a different IP’s sing-along. Though my family and I wish they aimed higher than sing alongs with their...

I'll join the fun. My guesses lean on Steve saying 2025 will be an entertainment-focused year. I've also thrown in some wildcards. Those are items with my lowest expectation of happening; but would be very interesting/exciting/controversial if they do. I've tried to pull from what insiders here...

Yep, Space Mountain and COP have/had corporate spaces. I'm unsure of their current use.

Yeah, the tech presented in Irons version has become very commonplace, but it poses a more profound question about how we use technology to better the world versus just spewing "electronic babble". I find that even more relevant now than it was 20 or 30 years ago. I'd also love to see more true...

I appreciate having the space at least open during non-festival times. More spaces to escape the heat and rain are always worthwhile.* That said, the non-festival decor could have been easy. A new version of the Epcot timeline that existed there previously, some props from the archives, and...

Do we have any indication what’s in the big wedge north of the old restrooms? Based on what’s been shared here and elsewhere, it doesn’t appear to have any public access from the gallery space.

Agreed. Any fan who dislikes the IP mandate/park pivot should be visiting Awesome Planet and Canada Far & Wide every vacation to support the first IP-free investments at WDW in years. Otherwise, their low attendance will be another (misleading) data point for TDO to argue that only studio IP...

I strongly doubt it. They haven't set it up for that. The old demo spaces had a stage-like design with room for a few rows of tables for people to pay for tastings. Here's an example from Yesterland: The kitchen they've constructed is a window onto the exhibit gallery like the kitchen you'd...

It appears the "show kitchen" is just for prepping festival food. I'm sorta surprised by that. When they announced the kitchen as part of the lineup, I expected a space for cooking demonstrations, like what used to occur at WOL & WS before that. Guess they've completely given up on those.

While I agree that the scarcity of space constrains the variety of offerings, the lower quality is still inexcusable. For instance, a burger from Connections or D-Lux is exceptionally better than one from Cosmic Ray's. There's no excuse for that other than management's unwillingness to upgrade...
