They could do Indy faster if they want.

I can’t imagine them taking down a ride at AK without adding any first

I’ll believe it when someone hears it from a bus driver.

Really? You need a bigger imagination.

I was surprised when his LinkedIn seemed to line up with what he told me about his job, to be honest.

I mean, they closed Splash before TRON opened.

Splash isn’t in a park with only 6 other rides

Shall I use DHS closing Backlot Tour, Lights, Motors, Action, and Great Movie Ride as an example then?

Im not saying you’re wrong. I just think they have the opportunity to do things the “right” way here, and logistically it makes little sense not to.

I'm thinking D'Amaro will announce the greenlighting of the Tropical Americas expansion/replacement of Dinoland USA at D23 2024 (August 9–11, 2024).

So it should be completed in, perhaps, late 2028?

I am at a loss this point. I’d guess that once Tiana is close something new will be announced or they will literally have zero construction projects underway.

Well they need to wait to see how many people book vacations for Journey of Water, first.

I don’t know what the hell they’re doing but talking out of both sides of their mouths (discussing big, bold plans while commencing nothing) is a bad look. Why continue paying all of these Imagineers to crap out ideas if you don’t plan to build any of them?

The optimistic side of me agrees. The realistic side of me says, yea no chance. I just think at this point a zebra can't change its stripes. The way star wars was galaxys edge was handled really showed me all I need to know about how they handle expansions. I do hope you're right, but I wouldn't be able to bet on it.

DHS was down to FOUR RIDES for a while.

Concept art for stuff that will never be built doesn’t draw itself.

I'd imagine they shut it all down at once and bring up Indy whenever finished.

The sad thing is that they could be working on the Encanto thing (ride?) right now without disrupting anything

Also do we know what the Avatar attraction is that is planned for Disneyland? If it is something new/different, could it also be added to DAK?

They could do Indy faster if they want.

They could do literally EVERYTHING faster if they wanted.

If they close the attraction first that’s less money they have to spend staffing the attraction.

They keep saying “experience”. I bet it’s VR trash. There’s no room for a physical Pandora.

I thought it was replacing Launch Bay (i.e. the old Carousel of Progress building)
