What are the rumored prices for the droids and the sabers?

It was my understanding Figment (and even Dreamfinder) would have been part of the Inside Out makeover.

Two words in your statement that tell you all you need to know: "Universal" and "Disney". No matter how much planning has gone into it, Disney can't do much of anything under 24 months. Maybe a merchandise push cart? Good Lord, look at how long it is taking for the new Mickey attraction to go...

Add me to the list of "tin foilers" who believe this plan has its origins with Disney. It very much seems that, for $135 million of taxpayer money, a better alternative could have been figured out to save those businesses if that was ever a possible alternative. By eliminating Crossroads, you...

Thanks for the link. If it isn't funded yet, why are businesses being told they have 18 months to vacate?

That was actually the land where the new theater was going to go. The access to it was just going to be via the MainStreet overflow corridor, and not Tomorrowland.

It is if they put the new location smack dab in the middle of the park, on a corridor that everyone uses to go to World Showcase.

I imagine that's the new MouseGears with a sculpture on top of it.

LOL!! Given the way the meet & greet (Character Spot) location is designed at EPCOT, and seems to work very well, I would imagine this is the new location.

That is EXACTLY what I was thinking as well. They wouldn't demo MouseGears unless they had something much better in mind. Putting the retail location right in the middle of the corridor would certainly do the job.

Pete Docter actually created a mockup of the transformation of this into Inside Out with the help of the Imagineers back in early 2015. From what I understand, nothing has come of it (which makes literally zero sense to me). The movie was certainly successful enough. Dreamfinder and Figment...

I am originally from Kansas City and kind of a KC architecture buff. I've been to many of the historic theaters in downtown (saw Empire Strikes Back in one when it first came out) and I had never heard of this theater. That's for good reason, because the theater was only around for 16 years. It...

^ THIS. That was my first thought when I saw the first person videos. The outdoor section is not representative of Tron and takes you out of that world. It's totally unnecessary. I'm sure IF MK gets the attraction, the show building itself will have elements of what the outside dome looks like...

I would completely agree with this and go one step further and say that there are many area in the park that could use the money and new attractions. Just in my opinion, but to me MK needs more family attractions to help alleviate the crush of demand at every other attraction in the park. It...

Disney Imagineering doesn't do a good job of thinking this way (taking advantage of IPs and making the most out of the real estate they have), but completely re-imagining the Speedway as a Tron theme, with light cycles and light runners (cars), and having it zip in and out of the coaster...

If it really becomes a problem, they could always have a stroller line when you walk in where a card is attached to the stroller with a unique number and then the other part of the card (with the same number) is given to the guest. Then both are checked as you leave. It could actually be just...

I've said for years that a Fantasyland-type area (with 4 or 5 dark rides) would be an amazing addition to Animal Kingdom. The rides could be done relatively cheaply (as long as they don't unnecessarily throw $7 mil dollar animatronics like they did at TLM). Rides could be created based on: •...

As many others have said, Apple has laser focus. It wouldn't get into anything as widespread as Disney. The one I've always been surprised of was TimeWarner. It seems like it would have been a perfect fit for either Disney or Apple (before it got out of the cable business).

Not quite that long, but a long time ago.

The plans heard about Tron had it going over by/or replacing CoP. There have been other ideas for the Speedway land. I, for one, would be really unhappy if they ever got rid of the Speedway. I understand it takes up a large plot of land, but I would hope they would re-route it so that they...
