Are you a 13 year old girl? No? Then you probably would not know her. LOL She sounds like something that my daughter would have listened to when she was 13 and then begged me for tickets. (Yes, I sat through an entire Jonas Brothers concert once for her. :banghead: )

Hopefully, Fathers day will be a huge appreciation for the unsung hero's aka Dad's. Always belittled and barely acknowledged Fathers. I can't till you how many ballet, piano, figure skating, soft ball, basketball, band and chorus recitals I went to with just two girls.

This feels eerily similar to another posting...

[Rumor] Rock n Roller Coaster Starring Olivia Rodrigo

Hello everyone! My friend is an insider who works for Walt Disney World in Florida. My friend has reported to me that imagineers have been working to retheme the Rock n Roller Coaster starring Aerosmith at Disney's Hollywood Studios for a while, as Aerosmith is no longer as popular a band with...
forums.wdwmagic.com forums.wdwmagic.com

Apparently, Disney loves Olivia Rodrigo so much that they are not only going to replace Aerosmith with her in RnRC, bit they are going to dedicate a whole land to her in a park that's supposed to be about humanity's relationship to animals.

And we now have multiple insiders* confirming that she will be part of the parks! Exciting!!!! **

* Disclaimer: said insiders have recently generated accounts and under a dozen postings.

** Disclaimer #2: I have never heard of Olivia Rodrigo, nor heard any of her music. But she must be amazing is Disney is going to dedicate a ride and whole theme park land to her.

Oliver whatever is bigger than you realize. Not a "whole land". These boards have been begging for a fifth gate for years. Guess what... you got it! Olivialand!!!

Please take this as a rumor and only a rumor. I am hearing from a very credible source within the company that Dinoland is on the way out the door. To protect the person who has shared this information I will not give any info to who they are or what resort route they drive. But their information is usually credible at times or if not misheard. Dinoland is apparently going bye bye and this is long overdue. There has been talk of this for years but now the rumor has resurfaced. This does not include the classic e ticket popular attraction Dinosaur which is loved by many. This mostly includes the awful Chester and Hesters location of rides and carnival games. From what I am hearing Dinosaur the ride is safe from any changes planned to the area. Again please take as only a rumor for now until more develops.
As to what will be replacing Chester and Hesters is not clear. The obvious guess would be the rumored family wooden coaster planned for the early days of the park themed to a boneyard excavation, but ultimately scrapped. Another rumor very likely is the musical styling of pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo. Unless you have been living under a rock this past year, you have heard of Olivia Rodrigo and how she quickly rose in the charts to become an icon for Disney discussion memes. When Olivia was only eight years of age, she looked a lion right in the face and tamed it with her stare of intimidation. When she first learned to ride a bicycle, the earth shook with such fear of her skill that the many mountain chains across the continents were formed. She once swallowed a whale whole and spat it back out into the Pacific with one swift gesture. Chuck Norris says Yes Mam and bows on one knee when she asks him a question. The cosmos abide to her will. This new Olivia Rodrigoland will put Disney on the map like civilizations have never seen.
So do you think it is time to say farewell FINALLY after all these years to the lackluster underwhelming land that is Chester and Hesters? It has been a constant joke of how not to do imagineering of powerful, immersive lands. It is a carnival on a parking lot, nothing more. No theme. No soul.
Now we wait and hope.

I never like Dinoland. It always felt to me like a cheap "quick and dirty" kind of a implementation of a land.

I wished Dinoland would have been replaced with the Journey of Water featuring Moana instead of putting Moana it in EPCOT

Better yet, replace Dinoland with a Lion King land (there I go dreaming again :) )

Side note: I am not sure what is Disney's current vision for EPCOT is, it's a far cry from the 1982's vision of EPCOT.

I still maintain that it was always supposed to feel like that. Whether people like the land or not I think it was supposed to be reminiscent of an old "Route 66 type" of place. If you want a perfect example of this sort of thing I would point you to: https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attract...-Kentucky_Action_Park-Cave_City_Kentucky.html

NEWS FLASH: I just heard from a VERY reputable bus driver that's been on the job since, (when the parks just reopened and they needed drivers), that now since Joe Rhode is gone, they are now going to tackle that Yeti AA problem on EE with wait, you guessed it, a GIANT Olivia Rodrigo AA!! Since she is a musical artist, the strobe light will remain...more news to come!

Sure, it's fun until someone puts out an eye. That said, for what it was worth, you know what would be an absolutely tremendous thing to do with that whole Dino area? They have the basically same show building to clone Indiana Jones instead of Dino's. Then they could have a complete Indiana Jones land. I have ridden Dino for a number of times and Disneyland's Indiana Jones ride once, but it was so much more fun then the bump you around for nothing Dinosaur thing. They have the building, they have the ride vehicles and I think that the track layout is even close to the same, maybe @marni1971 can verify that. Heck, they could even move the altered Indy show from DHS to DAK replacing the entire "roadside carnival fiasco. What does that have to do with animals you ask? Well.... what does Everest have to do with actual animals or what does Frozen have to do with Norway or what does Guardians of the Galaxy have to do with any reality based Future World. From my limited knowledge I'm not even sure that it is our Galaxy.?.?.? The other plus is that they could shut down Dino land for years and almost no one would notice.

On the plus side as well, that would open up more space in DHS for added Star Wars adventures. It appears that there are no other topic on the whole planet other the Star Wars, so we might as well quit and completely surrender to that theme for infinity and beyond.

Endor! We could have Ewoks wander around in the Forrest landscape! You may be on to something here!
