Somewhat interesting that Disney seemingly paid attention to the backlash they received around the D23 announcements when it seemed like Muppets would be on the chopping block, but instead of saving the show they decided what people wanted was for the Muppets to take over another ride in the...

One thing to keep in mind is that when discussing a mega corporation like the Walt Disney company, not all online discussion about it is organic. Any company in this position would likely be running a large online influence campaign around such a controversial decision.

More of a general point but it’s sorta fascinating that every attraction announced besides Villians land (possibly) is replacing something else. -Cars obviously replacing TSI/ROA -Monsters inc seems as of now to be replacing Muppets area -Indy/Encanto replacing Dinoland/Dinosaur A lot of the...

Are we assuming that order of construction/opening will be... 1) Avengers/Claw ride 2) Coco 3) Avatar ?

If we're being real, the biggest waste of space in MK that neither fits its land theme nor is aesthetically pleasing is the speedway. That should've gone before ROA.

Absolute warfare in here currently. It's possible that the rides will be good and that people can be sad to see the area go/ think it's not the best idea to remove TSI/ROA for a variety of reasons. Both things can be true!

The land north of the Berm is swamp land, and would require reclamation work as well as the rerouting of roads and waterways.

I have perspective about the whole thing. I loved running around TSI as a child, but I haven’t visited it at all in recent years. So I agree with the pro removal side that this will be popular with the majority of guests, some of whom inevitably did not know TSI was even there. However, I do...

I think it’s a bit of historical revisionism to say that the lands at the castle parks have ever been cohesive or follow a singular story/timeline. For example: There really wasn’t much cohesiveness in having an attraction that takes place in the Deep South and the Wild West right next to each...

Important to remember that Dinosaur and IJA have basically the same track layout. Obviously they aren’t going to clone the DL version but I have a feeling they’ll be more similar than we’d prefer.

If they’re selling an “off road” experience there has to be some EMV functionality.

MK is absolutely not packed with attractions when you compare it to DL which is a smaller footprint.

While I think going beyond the train tracks for these expansions makes the most sense in the long run, my doubts are increasing that it will happen. I have a feeling the best case scenario is we keep the main island of TSI, maybe adding a bridge across and parking the riverboat, while losing...

Looking at it on the map there seems to be room for both expansions at MK without having to rip up ROA, in my opinion.

The fact MK is getting Villians+Cars makes me concerned for the future of TSI. ROA makes the park feel much larger than it is. Purely from an aesthetics perspective it’d be a mistake.

Doesn’t really make sense to replace Muppets when they’re assumably trying to add capacity and the animation courtyard area is basically vacant.

The ride was always going to have detractors considering the ride it replaced and the... climate... the replacement was announced in, becoming a proxy in a much broader culture war. Therefore, they really had to knock it out of the park with this one and they failed. Leading those who were...

The shooting arcade is absolutely not a "must do". Just like Tom Sawyer Island or the Railroad aren't "must do's." However it's a fun little diversion in a park rapidly losing those types of experiences. Disney absolutely could put this somewhere else, as Magic Kingdom does not maximize it's...

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.miamiherald.com/news/coronavirus/article244838477.html Not sure if this has been posted yet but this polling should have Disney very stressed. 78% of people believe it is too soon to return to ANY theme park. Only 47% would consider taking a theme park trip...

Adding onto this, people are traveling in from all over the southeast to visit, while the parks themselves could theoretically be safe, the act of coming into Florida and using our hotels, gas stations, restaurants etc will spread the virus.
