DHS Makeover - What we know so far.....

[JBIRDTO]

OK, I don't post often and I'm not looking for anyone to give away anything that will get them into trouble, but basically from those that are in the know it looks like SWL might not be everything it could be because of cost overruns on Avatar?

Is that a question or statement based on things you have heard?

It's a question based on some of the posts in this thread, mainly by marni and jt04

For future reference I would suggest going with Martin's info. jt don't know squat. Throw enough crap at a wall and eventually something will stick.

I hope Zsolt Hormay is recruited to do work on SWL once he is done with The World of Pandora. Time lines might work out for it to happen.

Things are currently a mess at disney thanks to SDL. the only reason universal is getting all the praise is because they run their company better.

What does that have to do with Zsolt Hormay?

Well SDL is sucking disney dry of all finances. the company is re-shifting its creative leads. ive heard Pandora is overbudget as well...

Yes Pandora is over budget that has been discussed in numerous threads. But just because SDL is having problems doesn't mean Zsolt won't get moved to SWL after avatar.

Man, that guy has talent. If not SWL, hopefully something Disney.

I didnt say he was, im meaning he COULD. its happening to others like joe rhode...

This is the same company that has just recently learned that Pandora won't be enough to keep the park open till late.

Maybe the answer to that is continued DAK expansion then instead of waiting another 10 years...

 

[Next Big Thing]

Leadership feel that just having Pandora can't justify in running both Night time safaris and RoL as well as the extra staffing costs to keep the park open later.

I don't think you would be seeing B's and C's, more high capacity rides.

Is there anything actually in the works?

My preference is an Imagineering Pavilion in the manner that Animation had when the Studios opened.

Of, by and for all things Imagineering.

The Muppet idea is just one that has been floating around. I was answering those who were wondering where it might go once squeezed out of its current home which seems inevitable.

Remember this at Epcot back in 2007

I don't believe Avland has had much impact on SWL planning.

Hi sorry can't read back all 294 pages - but does anyone have a map of what DHS is projected to look like once TSL and SWL are finished ?

I don't think we have a nailed down map yet. Only "best guesses" by those that are close to the project.

What is the best guess map likely to be ?

So that shows Indy show will go. But it appears LMA show is still there - so perhaps a little wrong. Or am i wrong ?

The current thought on this board is that the LMA area will be used for construction storage and laydown areas for construction of SWL and TSL. Once those two lands are completed, then Phase 3 would go there. Of course those are all rumors, thoughts, ideas, etc...
