You forgot option C.

Higher ups WANT Zootopia in another park. ESPECIALLY if Zoo 2 does numbers.

If it's not getting a land in DAK. Not going to MK currently (not set in stone, that can always be plopped somewhere else in that park, aka speedway if that dies). Not doing to DHS if Monsters goes to AC... what's left, chat? What park is the remaining place they'd try to shove in the film that has a FARMER rabbit, with a park that has a WHOLE area with NO SPONSOR and NO IP...


Choose your fate wisely here.

Are you talking about a Otherworld Showcase pavillion near the Land?

IIRC thre was a reference to Living with the Land on one of the posters in the Zootopia: Hot Pursuit queue.

On another tack: Bunnyburrow in the Tree Farm, specially with a National Wildlife Federation demonstration garden? Maybe even Bug's Life stuff?

Also RnR won't be Mayhem barring some sort of miracle.

You did say a retheme was in play that would lessen the blow of something, correct?

Folks, we still have the originals in Disneyland. We're giving up a seldom-used copy for

In reality though I live on the east coast and am far more likely to visit Orlando l, due to things like vacation time, time difference, flight cost, etc. - so i will miss THIS rivers of America. The RoA are kind of a crescendo of theming as you round the park - really immersive and give depth. I think the cars ride sounds like it could be fun, but not at this expense.

I'm devastated about Rivers. I spent over 100 hours next to that river this year alone documenting the construction of Tiana’s.

When the log testing would stop, I’d turn around and watch the Liberty Belle pass by and wave to everyone. The sound of the riverboat was always there every single time I went to MK to post updates on Tiana’s.

In my opinion, this is the worst decision ever in the history of Disney Parks. It’s the most naturally beautiful part of the world’s most popular theme park — and it’s going to be destroyed.

"Naturally beautiful"?

Go walk into the wetlands to see natural Central Florida!

(Rhetorical statement)

EDIT: Sorry if this is a bit harsh, but your comment seemed hyperbolic, and I'm trying to talk you down.

It is a man made river with a man made island in a man made theme park that is located next to man made lagoon. It is completely unnatural. You and many others may find it beautiful, but it is not natural.

A trip in my Time Machine?

I wish I had a Delorean Time Machine. I would use my Mr Fusion to get the 1.21 Giggawats needed to power my Flux Capacitor and set the time circuits to go back in time to stop this very stupid expansion retheming plan and change it such that they are actually developing on new, never before used land, saving the rivers of America, Tom Sayer island and the Liberty Square Riverboat, and making this an actual expansion of the park instead of a “destroy and reuse” plan.

im calling it: the tiki room or COP

I doubt it's COP.

I certainly don't want it to be, as that's probably my favorite attraction at the Magic Kingdom, but Tomorrowland is a mess and needs a bunch of work and they don't seem to know what to do with it.

While I wouldn't put it past them, I don't think they have an idea or an IP they could use to replace COP right now.

Is Pandora, the land even that successful? FoP of course is, as well as Satu’li Canteen. But I thought people didn’t think the whole nighttime elements worked. They note the lack of entertainment. I always am struck by how full and alive the planet feels in FOP and how empty and abandoned it feels (except for the sweaty tourists) outside. I don’t see loads of people talk about how they enjoy just being in Pandora, or see people hanging out, outside the people who are clearly waiting for someone to get off the ride or for their LL time. It didn’t help keep people in the park after 4pm.

I get the same impression as I get from the Starcruiser… the people who love it *really* love it, while a lot of others leave not really sure what to think, but FoP is really great! And we’ve already established, via this weeks news, a smallish group of people that really love something isn’t enough.

DCAs Carsland is far more successful in the people just hanging out, taking pictures in a multitude of places, snacks etc.

Pandora is incredible. Otherworldly, immersive. Best ride at WDW. Great food.

Oh god I had a thought. People have been saying Adventureland is one of the things up next.
Jungle cruise?

If Zanetti is correct, there was never a hope of keeping Rivers of America or Tom Sawyer Island. There’s no conspiracy, or philosophical abandonment of the soul of Magic Kingdom.

Things get old and broken and their time passes. It’s sad, but I’m hopeful that what’s coming will add new beauty and excitement to this park.

So what's your MO my guy? To always downplay the importance, quality or significance from anything at the Disney parks only AFTER it's been announced to be removed?
Click to expand...

1. I've been a proponent of removing RoA for a long time to create more capacity.

2. My response was in response to all those people who did the whole hyperbolic "paved paradise to put up a parking lot."

So... the post is what it is.

Shall we discuss your M.O. on these forums next?

Just thought of something. While it’s clear once this is completed, Tomorrowland Speedway will be the second best cars attraction in the park. And while it may feel duplicative, RSR has a 40”, whereas 32” is the requirement for Tomorrowland Speedway. That’s not a huge difference, but cars would have a more limited presumptive guest range

The new MK Cars land will have a second smaller cars ride for the kiddies.

Speedway may not be around long enough to be called 'second' anything.
