That’s what I thought, the track wasn’t even finished when I was there 5 weeks ago now they are already putting the roof on it

LegCo was very “directionless” I guess is the best word in the last meeting I guess it was maybe Disney hyping up the loss being a rounding error but LegCo just didn’t look like they cared at all despite Disney rocketing upwards and ocean park collapsing after Covid You’d think they would...

It’s amazing there still isn’t a shopping district I mean unless you are coming from way out near shenzen or up by the tram lines the MTR makes it so easy to get to HKDL Pop a world of Disney, a Starbucks, and a few speciality stores (make it look sorta like ngong ping village at the stop of...

Yeah I have no idea why the actual soarin doesn’t look like the pre show A moving picture type “history of flight” would be so much more interesting than actual soarin

Someone did a mockup of that plot of land, it would be pretty easy to have the show building back onto FEA’s show building and have the front of the ride face TSL to hide frozen which also positions the land in the right way to have the path from TSL to arendelle remain open and the area in...

It was “toyish” but i wouldn’t necessarily say that’s a bad theme. It’s certainly more “timeless” than Disneyland’s Tomorrowland of yesterday idea even if it comes off as a bit cheap. Regardless I’d say the bigger concern is to split off stark expo fully. Adding a TOT, a shop and a quick service...

Why Paris doesn’t just return it to DLTALL I will never know, it’s always been the best theming of any space mountain and it actually fits the Jules Verne themed land As for HK’s Tomorrowland space isn’t really the problem it’s more without the TOT e ticket holding start expo together stark...

Then it’s questionable if this constitutes the expansion plan “reimagining” Though there aren’t alot of other candidates

Are we even sure it’ll stay philharmagic 5 months is enough time to gut it and put in a generic c ticket dark ride HK has been missing since it opened

That seems strange, there is little they can do with that plot (it “might” fit a small dark ride) and that side of fantasyland is empty enough as it is But it also does align with the fact that they said they were doing at least one reimagining of an existing attraction

Shanghai itself was arguably also “barely adequate” on day 1. Without Toy Story land and zootopia it had only 4 lands (gardens of imagination is not a land fight me) and a ride count of about 15 The fact that that lineup tilted more heavily e ticket definitely helped but they came dangerously...

I mean specifically if it can fit the Florida design or if they will only build the California/tokyo/Paris version because the Florida design is much bigger And they can’t build over the MTR as far as I understand because the government owns the land above and below the train line

Shanghai just doesn’t seem to have the same qualms. It’s the only park you can see parts of the area outside of the park that aren’t hotels or mountains and they don’t make an attempt to hide it. If this was an actual concern it’s not like Shanghai doesn’t have the budget to fix it. But I...

One thing that’s interesting about the joint venture is that during Covid Disney actually suspended payments the park made to the wider company. So Disney wore the loss of the park over the city during the closure It will be interesting to find out what “enough” is to push HK over the...

This also though is why I think the park is doing better now than a lot of people are giving it credit for Namely after the Covid debacle hit HK hard Disney handled it far far better than any of its direct competitors (namely ocean park and whichever chimelong is in guanzhaou I can’t remember)...

The problem seems to be some combination of 1) Disney did the numbers wrong and they miscalculated with a small park and a small capacity would generate a small consistent profit rather than a consistent loss (they budgeted for 5.6 it hit 5.2 in the first year then stayed below the target till...

By capacity the park’s two highest attractions are grizzly and small world with mystic in 3rd if I remember correctly Small world is whatever it was the parks original expansion but grizzly regularly has longer lines than mystic It’s very likely that Toy Story’s lines are caused by their low...

I watched that video a while ago and it basically made all the points I thought but just worded way better The land has no streetmosphere or shows, it doesn’t feel like disneysea and leans way too hard on its rides over everything else leading to large amounts of dead space that are in...

Did mystic manor give the park a long term boost though, it has massive capacity but it never appears to be the parks busiest attraction, if anything from that expansion Toy Story seemed to do the most It’s also hard that that expansion aligned with the construction of Shanghai which really...

I mean it depends on how much HK’s border blocks the GBA because purely by catchment area HK arguably had the larger catchment area but of course if a lot of them are blocked then purely looking at HK as a city Shanghai has a larger catchment area
