Disney to announce overhaul of DL Tomorrowland at D23?

[Phroobar]

Here is that video for queued at the Light Speed idea. I like his SolarPunk idea because it means shade. He also puts a suspended Big Hero 6 dark ride on the other side. The only thing I would do is add Horizons 2.0 and/or Seabase Delta to the lagoon.

Just popping in to say I'm still processing how @GiveMeTheMusic graced us with a Tiana post, but left without a word about the Peoplemover rumor. RIP us, we can only be so lucky I guess.

Perhaps she was just over certain posters who have continued to regurgitate stale arguments, conspiracy theories, and nonsense regarding Splash and Princess and the Frog for over two years even when the arguments/conspiracy are clearly false.

It's definitely tiring.

Oh is there a rumor about the PeopleMover?

YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME

Stop playing… TELL US. You know you want to!

 

[Dear Prudence]

I was stuck on the People Movers as a kid for what was probably only 35 minutes but felt like 2 hours. It was, uh, an experience. They can stay gone lol.

So Scott Trowbridge goes to Disneyland and films the motor boat area and somehow that has to do with the People Mover? Can't the guy go to Disneyland and take videos with him like everyone else? I guess I didn't notice the trash can in the picture was moved. That always means heavy construction is coming around here.

No I don’t think it has anything to do with the Peoplemover, but I think it has everything to do with putting Frozen in that section of the park. Right next to the Matterhorn? It’s perfect, and Frozen has been rumored for years.

I’m good with it as long as they don’t retheme the Matterhorn and replace Harold with Marshmallow.

That proposal came and went years ago!

Haha I remember. I was hoping it didnt resurface. Thanks for the confirmation!

It’s scary learning about the ideas and proposals that have come and gone through the cubicles in Anaheim.

I'm sure every imaginable scenario has gone through the walls of WDI at some point, so its not surprising or scary to me.

It’s scary in the sense that so many bad ideas are actually considered.

I would've been shocked if it had never been suggested at WDI.

Maybe “scary” isn’t the right word to describe how I feel. But disappointing and underwhelmed are better ones if you want to take your choice of descriptor.

Considering WDI is supposed to be the “cream of the crop” of creativity many of these ideas come across as frankly pedestrian or unimaginative. Not that I’m opposed to bringing new concepts to the parks it’s just all of these ideas (as you noted) are all so predictably “paint by numbers” from a corporate IP synergy pushing standpoint that I feel like many of these ideas - if adopted - would actually reduce the unique value proposition of what make the Disney parks unique vs. the rest of the market (Universal, Merlin, etc).

Again this is only based on what we’re hearing. And this isn’t meant to patronize individuals at WDI since this is all likely a top-down dictate vs an organic brainstorm. It’s debatable if these are enhancing or “plussing” the parks themselves or just promotional tool for other divisions of TWDC.

Lol well I think we can take this as confirmation that it’s coming. I mean you know most of us want it to come back and you wouldn’t tease us. Wow I can’t believe it’s really coming back.

Or it could just be that they're finally tearing out the track.

Nah she wouldn’t tease us. A tease only makes sense if it’s true. Unless she’s cruel which she isn’t.
