“Something major” coming to DHS???

DHS is the best park for Zootopia if they're determined to put it somewhere, but it looks like a mediocre ride. I don't think it would work as a headliner even if they wanted it to be, because it wouldn't live up to several other attractions already in the park.
I really hope they don't either.

If we assume the next wave of expansion includes:
Moana in MK

Avatar in AK
Encanto in AK
Indy in AK
Lion King in AK

Coco in either MK, AK, or Epcot

The only remaining "hot" franchises with planned sequels are Inside Out, Zootopia, MCU, and Pirates.

Best case scenario, IMHO, build a Doctor Strange/Shang Chi (which has a confirmed sequel) area in the Animation Courtyard area and leaves RNRC open to a possible retheme to another Marvel property in the future (it's unnecessary rn IMHO). It would de-ugly the hub and provide further grounding. A Chinese/Dr. Strange aesthetic would tie in very nicely to the Chinese theater and a cohesive cityscape could provide a very nicely themed area of the park.

I agree, the Zootopia ride looks mediocre at best, I hope we don't get it (especially not as a clone). A different ride system and concept could work well behind Muppets and connect into another land expansion eventually when Indy stunt-show gets axed long-term.

Maybe if they brought the original version of the ride they came up with, which would have used EMVs rather than the trackless ride system

You could do far worse than Moana for Adventureland. At least as far as IP goes. Doesn't seem like the sort of thing that would cause much rage, even from hyper critical people. If it was a Tiki Room replacement (which was a pitch some years ago), that would be another story. But I assume this is meant to be the DAK boat ride and a proper expansion on new land. If true anyway.

I assumed the horribly unfitting attraction was Frontierland though...

If I recall correctly, isn't Moana (at least the concept for AK) was a smaller version of Splash Mountain??

The blue sky artwork looked like that, but also recall that there were patents for a domed sailing simulator of some kind that appeared around the same time.

I'm hoping they stick with the blue sky artwork or something totally different -- the domed simulator never sounded very fun/interesting.
