Yes, I have, of course. I snoozed on that Pirates refurb and didn’t realize that is what they did during that closure, so am a bit fascinated at the scale of that type of refurbishment. It does make sense, with the water element in each of these attractions, that the metal shell of the...

What?? This is what happened during the 7-month Pirates refurb?? That seems like an insane undertaking.

To echo what Brian said, 75% of Journey is tame and smooth, but the final upward spiral and drop taken at a high speed can be somewhat jarring and has a bit of aggression to it. Not exactly a smooth drop after acceleration and not as smooth as a roller coaster drop. However, IMO it's the best...

Fairly certain the HKDL Railroad train seats face inward around the loop, and the existing Mystic Point station is on the wrong side of the tracks for that. Is there a way to make this functional without retrofitting the train cars?

Fairly certain they mean the Fantasy Springs Hotel. It’s a terrible design.

I read that quote as Hong Kong is using "World of Frozen", Paris is using "Kingdom of Arendelle" and TDS "Frozen Kingdom." So they're still consistent with their marketing.

Is it me or does the belt-y version sound like it was recorded by Eden Espinosa?

The mannequins in the One Man's Dream 2 photo have me howling with laughter. Love this, though!

I have to agree with you. This blueprint makes things way more exciting! With the show building being roughly the same size as Indy next door, this changes the game for me. Wasn't too excited for this attraction when the rumor was a FoP reworking, but now I am.

These Peter Pan ride vehicles shake-up the assumption that this attraction is a reinvention of FoP. These look like this could be a Disney version of the Simpson's attraction, though, so maybe the screen comparison to FoP does make sense.

This channel on Youtube offers great construction updates basically once a week.

Try to squeeze in Pooh and Splash as well! Oh and also Monsters, Inc and maybe Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast if time allows!

Very excited to hear about the new Encore: The Moments exhibit! Should be a cool retrospective of costumes.

This makes me so happy. I honestly hope this is true. Once I read this may be a copy of the FoP technology, I lost interest. Well, mostly! It's still a new, original attraction, but Pan deserves another creative approach to his story with real movement.

ABSO-FREAKIN-LUTELY.

Just found this 2-week-old footage of some projection mapping testing being done on the Miracosta. Stunning!

Paris, but when it was Space Mountain: De la Terre à la Lune. Ugh, I miss it.

I have not watched any ride videos, so I can experience it in person first whenever I get back over to TDR. However, could the Something There scene be salvaged by bisecting the room with something structural, moving the current animatronics to one side and having the first half of the room be...

Also with their Splash Mountain. There are backstage support buildings that have rockwork elements attached to deal with various sightline issues both from the ground and from the attraction itself.

Just chiming in to say that "mountain range cardboard cutout" is masking the fly loft for the new theater next to BatB. The fly loft is where all the hanging scenery is stored above the stage. The mural was pretty believable when I was there in December.
