Yes it get every messy, because things do frequently change. One of the biggest had to be the complete shift of Galaxy's Edge from Echo Lake to Backlot.

I would be very surprised to see Muppets go. It has high GSR ratings, high capacity, is in good condition, and low running costs.

Maybe they can flood a tangled toilet a few times a day for extra water features? lol
Would you rule out expansion of the IP?

Maybe they can just re-theme the caves to exhaust pipes, the rope bridge to a piston bridge, etc. The Rivers of America could be dyed to look like petrol to complete the fantasy.

I think the community needs to realize this happens- no announcement is 100% set in stone. No rumor is a proven lie if it never happens (see: concept art for Moana Tiki Room surfacing after the rumor was claimed “a lie” and the project was internally cancelled)
Wouldn’t be shocked if the Woodys Round Up replacement for CBJ is whatever this Woody show is for BBT, if that rumor is true.

I just don't see them expanding beyond "enough to do to fill a week."
They don't gain guest satisfaction (or profit) by making too much to do where families can't get to everything.
It is amazing Fantasmic has been performed for years and that huge area is dark during the day. This is certainly an area that could generate more revenue if something happened during the day.This would be the worst possible decision. However a daytime show for that area would be so very "fantasmic"
Oh thank GOD. I’m happy if it stays. Tbh I’d be fine with star tours. Not that I hate it, but you know how sometimes it’s just “time” for something, yknow? I respect star tours and what it did for theme parks.

So if the company's movie announcements are anything to go by- how positive are we feeling about the parks? Seems like Disney is "turbocharging" sequels and spin-offs and "live action" remakes and just doing literally anything but make more than one new idea every year. Any chance the parks announcements could be positive and refreshing at this point, or are we likely just going to get "this IP goes here" and "this IP goes there"?
If memory serves, I think Imagineering pitched a Woody coaster at one point as well. I wonder if they've dusted off those plans.

We'll see, but this thread really took a turn in the past hour or so that really diminishes my interest in the panel!

My gut is saying the latter. There is an entertainment-based IP mandate from upper management, and until there are changes in that realm, I expect nothing different.

I’ve also heard of GE expansions for both resorts.

Curious, is this actually true, or is it more that the insiders’ sources are not senior enough to know the final slate?

No, it's not just you.
While Cars Land is one of Disney's best theme park experiences, Cars is easily Pixar's worst franchise.
Children under a certain age adore it, though.

Have you seen “Planes” ? lol

Both can be true at the same time. Cars, Tron, Avatar, [Song of the South] all make excellent theme park attractions no matter what you think about the respective movies.
