This is a very good point. I think the continued decreased cost in air travel, increased global wealth, and the fact that are just more "hardcore" fans than ever that are seeking out going to multiple Disney parks over their lifetime makes the ROI more favorable to new attractions.
I am generalizing because I have kids. They never liked Tom Sawyer that much, I told them about Cars and they were enthusiastic
No one in my family cared the slightest about the river being replaced. Not one. Lands can be themed "to the past" without being outdated/problematic. If there's a problematic piece of history, then I would expect it to be history. Theres a time and place for it, not in a Disney park. Look at the redos they've been doing throughout Adventureland to make it less problematic. Also exploring jungles and foreign worlds is FAR more timeless than Cowboys. I can name 10 popular movies in the last 30 years about exploring a jungle or exotic locale...very few I can name about cowboys. Even less anything that Disney could use. Exploration is timeless. Cowboys are not.
Maybe that's where the 1.5 billion they paid to epic is going. Give me a parachute, let me jump to the island where I get to shot people with paintballs who use flash photography on dark rides. BRILLIANT!Is Call of Duty still relevant? Pretty sure it's all about Fortnite now
You're right... FORTNITE LAND IN FRONTIERLAND. It's a bus ride simulator like Fast and Furious but you "drop" into a Fortnite game with Dr Strange, Rick and Morty, & Goku and have to stop the evil Dr Doom.
But there are certainly aspects of it that shouldn't be highlighted or celebrated.There is nothing weird about wanting to preserve history.

I'll believe it when I see it.
Theme it to Gravity Falls and I'll commit to an AP today!
The release did specifically mention geysers. If this ends up having a national park feel then I’m okay with it.
The concept still shows water around BTMR. Plus we know villains has water if we are going by the concept art.
This... would be so good. Can we do both?

This. They seemingly hate water features and turn them off or eliminate them entirely at any possible opportunity. The Adventureland fountains have been dry for what, 10+ years now at least? The moat was partially filled in. 20K leagues lagoon gone. Fountain and streams near former Skyway station in FL, now gone with the remodel to the Tangled bathrooms. Just concrete, concrete, and more concrete. Tomorrowland Skyway station was partially demolished for really no reason since the space is still a bathroom just like before, and otherwise useless, just like before, and of course, the waterfall is now gone.
At least the walkways in WS are pretty far away from the waters edge compared to RoA. I figure they don’t see it as as much of a liability because they never (I don’t believe) ever put up those alligators/snakes present signs at WS like they did for RoA
But is there water next to the CBJ area and where the Liberty Belle dock is? Those are the areas that need a waterfront.
My thoughts exactly.
