Bluey could never put out another episode, and it would still be Australia's most successful cultural export of the 21st Century, and one of the biggest success stories of the streaming era. To compare it with Vampirina or Doc McStuffins as just another Disney Jr. flash-in-the-pan is facile...

Bluey anchoring a new Australia pavilion at EPCOT makes all the sense in the world... so I'm looking forward to the cardboard selfie standees and celebratory cupcake.

Knocking over a beloved institution of the park like Muppetvision while Animation Courtyard sits rotting where it is is just an utterly absurd notion. Surely not? Like, I get that everything has its time, and the park shouldn't be a museum, but there are so many better options right this very...

...in what possible world does a large land with multiple rides not represent an increase of capacity over the riverboat and Tom Sawyer's Island, of all things?

Let's face it, they're going to go somewhere - Disney isn't going to have a billion dollar franchise on the books without exploiting it as much as they can - and making RNRC into the Eastern Incredicoaster makes a certain amount of good sense, particularly if Monstropolis ends up linking up with...

If the finished land gets even close to what that concept art evokes, this could be something very special indeed.

Sounds good, and confirmation that it's Animation Courtyard will make it sound even better.

Eh, don't hate it. The rumours of slapping an old ride down were awful, but if they're building something new specifically for the space I can live with it.

Baffles me that people want to remove the best piece of edutainment constructed for EPCOT this millenium.

Indeed. I recently got the chance to ride the Paris version, and I was staggered by how much better it was.

Disney? Cartoony? Perish the thought.

They'll have a long wait if so- it's going to be years before Universal makes any more concrete announcements for Epic Universe.

If anything, the competition's stronger now, given that Universal have announced a whole new park. I don't think Disney need an answer to that right now, but what's being described is more than a little weak in comparison.

It's not like we haven't had previous, though- D23 2017 was far more exciting than how this one appears to be shaping up.

Seems like a rather dull show so far- nice little tweaks here and there, but nothing revolutionary. Hope they've got something up their sleeves.

It's only easy to top if you actually have the information that would do the job. Universal announced a name, and showed concept art. Do you really think that Disney would have more up their sleeves than that? It's more than they had for, say, the initial Star Wars Land or Pandora reveals.

If they do respond with significant new WDW announcements, they'll look reactive and behind the market. Uni's got ahead of them on this one, and there's no getting around it.

Nah, just a realist. I don't think there's any prospect of us being a few weeks away from the reveal of a new park with absolutely zero concrete news- absolutely nothing Disney does is that leak-free, let alone something that would drive as much interest as a new park. Don't get me wrong, I'd...

No one who knows anything at all thinks that a fifth gate is even being discussed at the moment, let alone being ready for an announcement. Maybe they get pushed that way by Epic Universe in the future, but I honestly doubt it.

Must be fairly substantial if they're giving it a panel of its own- if it's parks-related, I'm thinking more a land than an individual ride. Should go without saying that it's nothing bigger than that.
