Rumor D23 2024 WDW Rumors, Predictions & Discussion

Saying my formal Goodbye to Dinoland during this incredibly long Indiana Jones interlude. Currently on page 3 of the eulogy.

They found some actual talent to sing this one at least. Is that Meghan Trainor?

Tank and the Bangas are amazing. We saw them at the Blue Note in Manhattan and it was the best live show I've ever seen.

Thinking of that Blaine Gibson quote where he explained why there shouldn’t ever be a Walt animatronic… this feels very corporate cult in a way.

It's like imagining your grandparent or parent as an audio-animatronic or those AI models. It can't replace the real person, and has a real chance, that even if done well, is unsettlingly creepy and disappointing. He's not a character to exploit.

Short Round!

 

[Stripes]

Great. First a CGI remake full of what looked like animated taxidermy, and now a ride with...AA animated taxidermy.

What the hell is WRONG with Disney these days? This is gonna suck!

Just because the realistic movie didn’t translate well doesn’t mean that a realistic ride won’t.

Let them tell the story and judge the ride on its own merits not the movie’s. Pretend as if it’s original IP and there is no Lion King movie.

Short Round is Taking it Down!

It was also a nice tribute to the Sherman Brothers with Richard passing away this year.

This format sucks but I thought her performance was exceptional.

Tank and the Bangas are amazing. We saw them at the Blue Note in Manhattan and it was the best live show I've ever seen.

Was that the Lion King group? They were also great.

 

[splah]

anyone translate the mara glyphs on the side displays.

 

[necott99]

I wonder if the announcements are buffering just like the unofficial streams, bad wifi...

 

[Speedy71]

This is definitely not our Dino.

 

[hopemax]

Okay, now I audibly squealed like an insane fan. Ke Huy!

(production values have definitely improved over the previous panel)

[Captain Barbossa]

Is this the announcement for Indy 6: Indiana Jones and the Quest for Prescription Hemorrhoid Cream?

 

[The Chatbox Ghost]

It's like imagining your grandparent or parent as an audio-animatronic or those AI models. It can't replace the real person, and has a real chance, that even if done well, is unsettlingly creepy and disappointing. He's not a character to exploit.

there’s a reason Walt didn’t like the Uncle Walt persona towards the end- he hated being seen as a character. Unfortunately Iger will milk the Walt character until the end of time

 

[Cmdr_Crimson]

*sniff* it's time to Kali-Mah the Carno's

 

[Sectorkeeper71]

If Congress ever brings back filibustering on the floor, they could learn so much from this presentation

 

[doctornick]

If Lion King attraction is based on the 2019 film that may be one of the dumbest things they've ever done. Imagine they announced a Jungle Book attraction for AK and it's based on the CGI film

The "live action" Jungle Book is actually better than the original. It's pretty much the only live action film where I would say that.

I'd actually prefer that if they ever put JB in DAK that they use the live action version. Would fit better.

But Lion King should definitely be the original for anywhere. It's just so vastly superior.
