Runaway Railways

But what does that have to do with Epcot?

It doesn’t. Martin was just asked if anything worthwhile was being announced. An e-ticket is generally considered worthwhile.

An attraction already announced and opening next year ... lol. I know it's fairly big news for it to be coming to DL (and Paris?) ... it's just anticlimatic for most of us, like these things usually are. LOL. But then I remember the vast amounts of people who have no clue about any of these things so I guess it'd be a big deal.

I think people are starting to expect too much tomorrow (the Mickey ride being cloned makes absolute sense to be announced). But we'll see what's said.

If there is indeed a Poppins announcement, that will be big.

I think that gets at what Martin’s comment was about. It’s not exciting for WDW fans. It is technically a big announcement for DL though. Just think of the reverse if they announced IJA for DHS tomorrow.

I think we’ll get some further ride details or some test footage either way from the DHS version. This IS a Mickey event.

Literally any news at all was more than I previously expect from these things.

He did. What’s the east reference?

I agree. More than I'd expect. But I was hopeful for something about the Mickey ride. So I'll take footage or concept art or *something*. Would be fun to see the concept art for a re-designed Gag Factory entrance. (And just a reminder to all, WDW's replaces a ride in a park that needs all the capacity it can get, and Disneyland, also needing capacity, replaces a gift shop and expands)

"winds of the east" referring to the opening of Poppins.

Sorry... I don’t get it.

Edit. I googled it. I feel so dumb.

 

[HauntedPirate]

So I'm back to my original guesses of Brazil and/or Poppins, then.

 

[Hatbox Ghostbuster]

Sorry... I don’t get it.

Edit. I googled it. I feel so dumb.

lol, the actual quote is "Winds IN the east".

 

[Kman101]

If there is indeed a Poppins announcement, that will be big.

That would be practically perfect

I'm ready for it to be announced I love knowing things so ahead of everyone else but at the same time makes it hard when it's a feeling of "been there heard that" LOL but it's always good to get details or see concept art.

 

[Hatbox Ghostbuster]

All good my man.

 

[mikejs78]

Two sets of fans: those who like festivals and those who don't? All-new Sizzling Summer Festival of Something or other?

 

[BrianLo]

Sorry... I don’t get it.

I assume you were thinking ‘Disneyland is in the West not East’?

I’m happy to hear about Poppins!

 

[Kman101]

I feel like WS is due for an announcement but who knows? Hope it's SOMETHING they haven't already confirmed.

Don't give them any ideas

I'm surprised we don't have one. Summer the last two years has been fairly slow for Epcot it seems.

Guess on divided fans? Epcot Center purists and Ipcot fans?

No. I thought someone meant a Tokyo clone.
