I want to start this thread post off, by first saying that I am in no way intending to damage anyone's credibility or reputation within the theme park community. I am simply making this thread in favor of speculation and curiosity.
A couple of hours ago, Youtube user Alex the Historian uploaded a livestream on what he claims to be, the latest rumors regarding a Tomorrowland overhaul. In the livestream he made a few reasonable points as to what they'll be doing with TL in the future. Most of these points seem fairly realistic, especially considering the reduction of CapEx spending within the parks, so I thought it would be worth it to post the live here, so we can speculate on whether any of this seems credible, or is complete utter nonsense. Alex did make the claim, that TDA wanted to do away with IASW in 2018 along with ToonTown, but they were stopped by Kim Irvine and a few other Imagineers at the time, so the plans fell through and thankfully never came to fruition (yes, I am aware this already sounds completely unrealistic). He told me all of this last year (November 2020) in a comment section, and it seemed to be centered around a similar rumor from Micechat (which of course turned out to be complete utter nonsense), so he doesn't have the greatest track record when it comes to some things. I'm sure that one instance was some sort of misunderstanding.
With that said however, these TL rumors, in the way they were presented in front of a fairly large audience, seem to hold some amount of credibility in my eyes, considering current circumstances. Let me know what you all think of this, and whether it seems realistic to any of you.
Again, this is in no way to discredit Alex in what he's been saying, but rather a thread created out of pure curiosity on what's to come, and whether any of this or some of this is indeed true.
