This is still quietly ticking over.

Can you clarify what you mean by 'ticking over'?

Quietly moving forward.

Quietly moving forward.

Feel like providing us with a clue about IP yet? Haha

No haste yet?

 

[Brer Oswald]

No haste yet?

Maybe that's the hint

 

[Daveeeeed]

Maybe that's the hint

That's what I was thinking when I first heard Marni's unusual choice of words, but then also Peter Pan could be it.

Peter Pan won't be leaving Fantasyland

 

[Daveeeeed]

Peter Pan won't be leaving Fantasyland

That's what I am guessing, but with all the things they are doing, you never know. Relating to England the most from ticking seems to be Alice. I guess we'll have to wait and see!

I thought gators were banned at WDW?

Temporarily

I guess the nice thing is a Disney has a lot of IP's to choose from that would be wonderful.

They are working on an Alice attraction for Shanghai.....so.....

Or there is always that big Alice hedge maze to pull on up from Paris or Shanghai. Easy B or C ticket attraction depending on the detail and intricacy.

I just hope if they do use Alice as the ip theme, that they use classic Alice and not the Tim Burton Alice like they did in Shanghai....

And there's also the cancelled/delayed Alice ride from Tokyo (which obviously would be an E ticket and not fit the uk plan)

 

[NoChesterHester]

Hard to imagine that the attraction isn't tied into Mary Poppins considering there is a new movie coming out... and this is IPcot 2017-2022 after all.

Definitely! The original had everything going for it, from the music to the most iconic versions of the characters. Burton's landscaping is very cool though and would be a great addition as a full built out land, or as a mini-land, but for the ride Walt Disney's Alice in Wonderland is by far the better pick. It's also proven to work wonders as a dark ride and IMO it's the best Fantasyland C-ticket ever made.

Ooooh thanks

I'd like a short Mary Poppins musical TBH. That'd be pretty cool to have in Epcot! Another 40 minute musical never hurt. Of course, I'm biased because I'm a theatre major.

Don't worry, Peter Pan has a Crocodile. That's different from Gators .
