People who claim to be in the know say disparate things, so assuming they all have actual sources, the simplest explanation is that plans are in flux, particularly beyond phase 1. Kind of just have to wait and see unless a singular narrative starts emerging.
That's what I am assuming, to me it kinda seems like Coco, Cars, whatever else, you name it, are all multiple ideas that won't be approved until right near D23. I also assume Villains will just get a confirmation and construction won't start for years (if it happens at all)
I personally think Coco + Moana sounds the most solid and plausible for MK and will basically be ready to get underway when D23 rolls around. I think they will remain wholly blue sky on anything beyond that, maybe with slightly more defined artwork, but nothing official.
I agree, however I do think any "blue sky" going forward will actually happen, but would be more these plans are exact, but it's gonna look something like this and have these IP's instead of the last few years of blue sky which was how upset would you be if this is built and don't worry none of this is probably gonna happen anyway.
Yeah but Moana isn’t going to go in the BBTM area (it’s supposed to be in Adventureland)
If it’s at all certain, they won’t call it blue sky. By their very nature, blue sky plans are meant to be a bit amorphous.
Didn’t mean to imply it was.
Not at Universal .. Epic Universe was on point but they knew what they were going to build and not wondering around "what if" word salad! They were romaine ready for a long time coming with that available parcel of land!
This is just nowhere close to true. There was a bunch of wondering “What if?” with Epic Universe. Entire lands were considered and dropped. Drastic revisions completely changed the lands and attractions that are going to open next year.
My comment was specific to Disney theme parks.
Like what?! Besides postponed expansions (which would delay the opening of the park), everything that has been reported for the last 5-8 years is PRETTY darn accurate.
That should tell you how long these projects actually take even at Universal.
That doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. It’s just the nonsense of people who claim to want to know what is being considered being big mad when they get what they say they want.
Gosh every time I read your posts it’s like a breath of fresh air.
Difference is Universal did not have a huge marketing and Fan based event to start talking up the new lands and attractions....and then cut them after constructin started... They were pretty quiet about everything they were doing ...
And again, this is nonsense hypocrisy from people who have gone out of their way to be someplace dedicated to that sort of information. You’ve been begging Wonka to let you in and now your mad that he did.
It wasn't just realeased to the D23 members...It was widely talked about by Disney, etc. If it gets to the point where they are going to release the info to the Fan community, they should at least have a more concrete idea if they will build it or not... It is not like someone walked through Willy Wonka's factory and saw something on someone's desk about the Everlasting gobstopper and that person told everyone... Willy Wonka created a press release about the Everlasting gobstopper and then decided not to make it.....
Oompa-loompa-doompety-doo
They released it to a fan community that spends hours a day trying to suss out what they are working on. A fan community that knows about dozens of projects that never were but were shared, going back decades. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad sits on the site of one such project.
It also showed up on news feeds...
