Was planning to go to WDW for the first time with their family in 2026 but if the Doors Coaster and Indy/ Encanto open in 2027/2028 that might be worth postponing. Then again, maybe not. who knows how many classic attractions they get rid of by then? For example, riding the original TOT is more important to me than any of the above attractions.
Maybe they want to change the aesthetic of AC to match more the L.A. neighborhood vibe that Grand Ave. has.
Overall, it was good. They talked less about the show than I would have liked, but they talked about Tiana and her character and how they wanted to continue her story in both the show and ride.

Did they give a timeframe for the TV show?

Building the Play Pavilion wouldn't do anything to help EPCOT long-term (and probably wouldn't even help much short-term) unless they change it into something completely different from what was originally announced.

Definitely a little bummed Coco is only going out West. Would have been great at MK.
I know it's not a fit for Epcot unless they want tear down Royal Sommerhaus.

I can’t believe I’ve lived long enough to see that even Walt Disney himself has now become an IP for Iger and his cronies to exploit

Why not finish the original plans. That would be good enough

isn’t this just going where it was always rumored to go which is that empty soundstage next to animation pavilion? The area was approved for it 15 years ago. What happened to LEE and Marni are they still around? I guess someone can ask (and apologize) to my boy Jim Hill as well

And another thing. When is WDW or Disneyland going to upgrade their Peter Pan rides? Shanghai has an updated version which is pretty darn good, and Tokyo has one that's amazing. Meanwhile, we here in the States have the same dated dinky rides that were built like in the 1960's. That's ridiculous. All the Imagineers would have to do is clone the rides from either Shanghai and Tokyo. Why can't WE have nice things?

They have to leave some things for next D23 events. There must be a lot of other things in the pipeline if they are really going to spend $16b in the next 10 years.
Thanks. That's a pretty big empty indoor theatre space to use for special events. That used to be the old Hunchback theatre before that was demolished and Lights Motor Action and that indoor theatre was built afterwards.

Given the sheer volume of announcements at this D23 and the numerous plans that are still unnannounced over the next decade, they didn't announce literally everything. Still expect EPCOT to redo Spaceship Earth this decade.
Redoing Imagination, Wonders of Life, and adding Inside Out (which has moved up in priority) are still happening, but are slated for the end of this development cycle now that this "phase" of EPCOT is complete. Their openings should happen spread between other projects at other parks.
*I’d also like to add, The Incredibles will definitely be receiving a larger presence as welll!*
To the average park goer, the other WDW parks and DCA need work far more and that's in addition to Test Track receiving fantastic changes. EPCOT will still feel fresh for the coming years, but it won't be neglected!
