I can't imagine theming a handful of towers that run directly through some resorts would cost more than the towers themselves. I'm obviously no expert, but Disney has plenty of money, and I remember a time when they used to go out of their way to hide or disguise things that would break the theme

This is a lovely idea. I really like the Skyliner, but it's definitely an eyesore in some spots. This feels like it would have been a pretty trivial workaround at some locations

Has anyone mentioned that a dripping water effect in the queue that has apparently been gone for most of ToT's run is back? Just saw a TikTok or something about.. can find the link again later if this is new info

I don't know if I fully agree with that exact description, but I do agree it doesn't look great. Tbh, the entirety of Celestial Mall or whatever it is looks incredibly uninspired (so maybe you're right about the tower's theme lol), though the other lands look great. But yeah, I think a big part...

I don't think it matters how the illusion is achieved; it can still be groundbreaking by theme park standards even if it's reliant on pre-existing tech (which I didn't even notice until you pointed it out). No one cares that even at opening, Haunted Mansion's peppers ghost effect was over 100...

Do we know when and why they changed them from I presume CRTs? Edit: Is that why there's a black bar on top? That didn't used to be there right? Could they not format it correctly?

Huh, interesting! I'd be curious to know what those are because it doesn't seem to manifest from the guest's perspective, as far as I can tell

Wait what? Why would they change it? Seems more work and hassle than anything

Celestial Park, at least in concept, feels so disconnected from the rest of the park. I feel like this is kind of an issue with EU in general, actually, where everything (by design) feels completely isolated, like 4 mini-parks jammed together with a random shopping mall connecting them. Maybe...

That bothered me too. Left turns shouldn't. And almost anywhere else on the ride, you'd be distracted. Plus, this is likely visible from the queue too, making it even more obvious to anyone waiting around. Not sure why they couldn't, at least, put up a fake wall for this section to try and...

You know...for years, this was WDW's most frequently updated ride, with what, 4 revisions in relatively quick succession? Why did they stop? I mean, it is in a really good place maintenance aside, it's just weird it's been neglected for so long after all the updates

I thought the same haha. That was very confusing given the thread! But also funny considering Universal once sued Nintendo over Donkey Kong because of King Kong.

Horrific? Man this is some major hyperbole. All the reactions I've heard and seen from those who have actually ridden it have been very positive. Even going only the video, the ride is nothing near a disaster, even if it may still be disappointing

I was being flippant, but it is very bad by Disney standards when it comes to theming imo. Either way, SNW is nothing like it

I don't know who you're addressing, but it's fair to say that Nintendo World both fell short of expectations when it came to the rides, while also pointing out that the land is far from a Avengers Campus-level disaster

Let's not get hyperbolic here. Avengers Campus would be an embarrassment for most parks, and is even more so for Disney, and is easily outclassed by a land themed to a literal parking at AK. The version of SNW Orlando is getting isn't THAT small, and the theming is impressive with an unheard of...

well, it is certainly full of pits

Well sure, but that's the nature of Easter eggs anyway. Or at least it was before the MCU kind of perverted them. The entire ride is so TZ coded I don't know how they retheme it without significant changes. Everything from the pre-show, to the first show scene, to the narration, to all the...

It's funny how that ride got accused of being budget engineered at the time, yet it still features excellent theming. This is something that Disney is still pretty much unmatched at, except only by a select few Universal rides. Rewatching a POV of 7DMT, DK would have really benefited from a...

Funny that Hogwarts Castle has a bigger presence in SNW than Peach's Castle...
