So..... as has been "revealed" on a certain YouTube channel with the initials MV, Radiator Springs racers is to be placed beyond Big Thunder. If true this seems like a completely misguided placement for an attraction that also negates the possibility of a full cars land elsewhere at WDW and a maintenance and downtime nightmare as has been at DCA
Ever since it became apparent that Coco would be used in Tropical Americas, my money has been on Cars going next to BTMR (though I would have expected them to go full Cars Land rather than just RSR as an extension to Frontierland).

It will butt up nicely again Coco thematically. Keep in mind that it's just the attraction not an entire Carsland.

If his rumors are true then Coco isn’t part of BBT. His rumors say it’s Radiator Springs Racers and a Woody attraction in a dessert themed area and then villains gets most of the BBT space.
I really hope this isn't true (it probably isn't). If it is and their idea is to copy a 12 year old attraction and add a woody attraction when they already have an entire land for it in a park that needs expansion way more than MK. All while getting rid of the rivers of america. I honestly think at this point that Brayden's "sources" are just old rumours on these forums and rehashed. Also to me it seems unlikely that they would get rid of the rivers of america, I think he's getting confused between the idea of shortening it and getting rid of it.

to be fair the pink castle was true, along with the mary Poppins epcot attraction and epcot show news. I wouldn't necessarily say its his fault some of it got cancelled. I don't think anyone here or on youtube has a perfect track record either.
He said 'rose gold,' so, nearby, but not an exact hit.

Our insiders were saying Poppins long before he did. His inside source was wdwmagic.com

There's grains of truth.

Cars (though not Cars Land a la DCA), Zootopia, and Coco have all been proposed for BBTM phase 1. I don't believe there was ever serious consideration (this decade, at least) for a Toy Story attraction here. And, as far as I can tell, Zootopia is (thankfully) out.

It still sounds to me like Coco has the edge for phase 1, but there's a lot of jockeying about.

Brayden is the new Jim Hill... latching onto outdated 'inside' information.

So is he claiming that the southern half of Frontierland will become New Orleans Square?

"Desert land" doesn't make sense. Yes, Big Thunder and Radiator Springs have the same landscape but they do not fit together at all.
