Rumor D23 2024 WDW Rumors, Predictions & Discussion

[Stitchon]

The bottom line is if Disney is being honest about the 60 billion in investment, there has to be a significant amount of new attractions announced tonight.

I believe it was broken out into roughly half of the big investment being for new additions, the rest being for other uses. Still a lot, of course.

+ Paid the money to get into the convention
+ Know how to do live streams
------------ Still somehow filming in portrait

I would get it if he was doing anything good! Haha.

Let's be fair to him, he has done some great things for the company like uh... he brought back Oswald over 15 years ago that was a good one. He lucked buying into Marvel at a good time too?

Just made it in the Honda Center. They have it set up for an orchestra.

Picture to add to your description:

They're gonna play a rousing rendition of "One Little Spark", and then proceed to not announce anything related to the ride.

I’m at Epcot and a very dark storm cloud is moving in. I feel the symbolism.

I am at AKL and a rainbow came out, so hopefully a positive sign for news for AK

I don't recall much about the logistics of DL's Fantasmic, but with expanding beyond Big Thunder, would a Fantasmic work while keeping ROA and freeing up space for something else at DHS like someone earlier mentioned?

Universal does the same. I think Minions land and Dreamworks land are bad cheap additions. Especially when I see great looking Minions lands overseas.

However, it appears they opened to rave reviews.

Universal gets the benefit of they did that at the same time they are building Epic and it was less than 2 years between Shrek closing and Minion Blast opening, and a similarly short window for the kiddie land redo.

If it was presented to people like the Epcot spine project, and a 7 year timeline, there would have been a different reaction. These were a bit more “enjoy this bowl of mixed nuts while you wait for the dinner hour” projects.

The amount is right, but here’s the breakdown:

59 billion - sent to shareholders
1 billion - clone of a 15+ year old ride from another park and some bus wraps

I can see the reactions already just by reading this comment.

Woah woah woah - easy on that idea of bus wraps

MK really don’t need a big show like that especially if it is getting a light parade back. And it would dramatically hurt nighttime attendance at DHS.

Wouldn't be surprised at all, I mean they're already calling this presentation HORIZONS to stick a dagger into the hearts of classic EPCOT Center fans

As in…is that all?

Get those nostalgia juices flowing. .

Pick me up some pretzel bread pudding. Thanks

I'm making some tomorrow!

 

[vikescaper]

I wonder if the wristbands from last night will work tonight because I brought mine.

 

[GhostHost1000]

Tonight

Here's another.
