    News Disney and Miral Announce New Seventh Theme Park Planned for Abu Dhabi

    Any suggestions on which Disney IPs might work well in indoor environments? I remember there were rumors years ago that the Frozen area at Tokyo DisneySea (before the project evolved into Fantasy Springs) was going to include an indoor section where it would simulate snowfall. I can think of...

    News Disney and Miral Announce New Seventh Theme Park Planned for Abu Dhabi

    I've been watching videos of the dark rides at Warner Bros Abu Dhabi and they're simply terrible. They're basically rides through static sets, with a few animatronics with simple movements and some screens. I also find it curious that all of their attractions feature the DC Comics heroes in...

    News Disney and Miral Announce New Seventh Theme Park Planned for Abu Dhabi

    None of those locations make sense, because Disney Abu Dhabi has something the other places don’t: a company with the financial muscle to pay Disney for the franchise rights to its brands, ideas, and services. But if we’re going to speculate, I think South Korea has both the population and the...

    News Disney and Miral Announce New Seventh Theme Park Planned for Abu Dhabi

    The matter of cloned rides will likely be handled on a “case by case” basis. For example, Disney might offer a project to the Paris resorts, both resorts in China, and Tokyo in order to reduce costs. In the case of Tokyo, exclusivity would depend on Oriental Land. If they want something 100%...

    News Disney and Miral Announce New Seventh Theme Park Planned for Abu Dhabi

    I'm wondering what the cultural perception of Disney is in the Emirates. Is there a tradition and nostalgia for its classic films, or only for the modern IPs?

    News Disney and Miral Announce New Seventh Theme Park Planned for Abu Dhabi

    I think Miral, when it comes to selecting rides and IPs, will be like an OLCo but with an Arab twist — that is, they won’t have the problems Disney itself has with its own IPs. I can perfectly imagine that, since they come from a culture with no political correctness, they won’t hesitate to...

    News Disney and Miral Announce New Seventh Theme Park Planned for Abu Dhabi

    So from now on, is Disney a franchise? Can anyone with enough money buy a Disney resort, regardless of where it’s located? The Japan model, but updated and taken to the extreme. On the other hand, I wonder if Miral will dictate to Disney which IPs they want for their resort, and Disney will...

    Tokyo Disneyland Resort Expansion

    I visited TDR in 2012 and I remember even back then Western Railroad felt like an extremely outdated, boring ride that wasted an obscene amount of space. In general, TDR—exceptions aside—looked outdated next to the brand-new and splendid DisneySea. I’m glad they’re breathing new life into the...

    The worst decision WDW ever made?

    Retheming Splash Mountain. IMO is as if Disney made a retheme of superclassics such as Pirates of the C., Haunted Mansion or Big Thunder Mt.

    MK Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    Not impressed at all. I'm not American, in my country SotS was never a problem. It was easy to find in videoclubs in the 80s and.90s. I watched it tons of times when I was a kid. I loved its iconic music and I loved the 3 Splash Mts with its "Tex Avery's feeling". I think they should just...

    MK Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    So Tiana never appears as Princess? It's so weird they made up this plot with food and species instead of use the story of the movie and Dr Facilier as villain.

    Are the official logos of Frozen Kingdom, Peter Pan's Neverland, Rapunzel's Forest and its rides made public?

    What is the best ride you have ever been on?

    When I was a kid Space Mountain De la Terre à la Lune (Disneyland Paris Jules Verne version). As adult Journey to the Center of the Earth (Disney Sea). In American Parks TZToT in DHS.

    Transformative Multi-Year Expansion Announced for WDS Paris

    I think "Disney Hollywoodland" would have been a better name (Disneyland Paris, Disney Hollywoodland and if they ever built a 3rd park, they should keep on "land" on it)? They could have built archs or gates (They don't have to be as expensive as Epic Universe' portals) of entry for each area...

    Transformative Multi-Year Expansion Announced for WDS Paris

    News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

    If "Desert Land" ends up being real, what IPs could go there? Because if they rule out Cars, they don't have much left. Besides Woody, what other IP could they use? The Lone Ranger (That bombs,)?

    Obscure/forgotten/old Disney IPs that you like to have a ride in the parks

    Tell us which Disney IP you would like to have an attraction in the parks (and in which park and area). The more forgotten/obscure/outdated the IP, the better. Mine would be a The Gummy Bears rollercoaster in Fantasyland

    NonDisney IPs that eventually could fit in Disney Parks

    Same for the Avengers. One of the msot fanous IPs than have Disney but there is nothing more than a resking of a Coaster in Paris, based only in Iron Kan and Captain Marvel.

    WDS - 3rd expansion land: Lion King (Rumour)

    Unfortunately Disney has done such thing previously,. Galaxy's Edge: The terrible new trilogy wash chosen instead the Classic one. Mickey and Minnie RR, the new cartoon instead the standard Mickey Mouse. Even the cancelled Mary Poppins tea cups for Epcot were based on MP Returns instead on the...
