Disneyland Project/Rumor Tracker

[Parteecia]

There's been one or two people saying that the dragon will be back for Fantasmic...

As well as hints from Disney:

... And while the dragon may be missed, Longo offers a hint that we haven’t seen the last of Maleficent in her fire-breathing form.

“We’re excited for something to come back, and we’re in the works and working on it,” Longo says. “But I think what I’ve done with that scene — that good versus evil and that battle between Maleficent and Mickey — is so spectacular. We all loved the dragon, and we’ll keep working on things, but there’s not much I can say about it.”

Disneyland's 'Fantasmic!' returns after fire — without a dragon. Here's a first look

Maleficent, in her dragon form, went up in flames during a performance last year. A reimagined show debuts with new pyro, laser and water effects.

Does anyone have any updates on Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln? The articles I'd seen said it would be closed at least through mid-June. I was really hoping it would reopen in time for the 4th.

No it won't. It won't be reopening until AT LEAST after d23

Thank you for the update. My daughter will be crushed.

I'm so sorry...

I'm so sorry...

Thanks. Some of the closings are just disappointing. It’s our first trip to Disneyland and there’s no Mansion, Lincoln, or Pooh. Sounds like a reduced Fantasmic too. I’m sure it’ll still be fun though.

Hopefully everything finally lines up with this + Tomorrowland! Would be so amazing. Thankfully, not too much longer to find out.

Offhand Disney found going feral.

Let's not get to rambunctious, "discussed" don't mean greenlit.

rambunctious

What a fun word to say

I heard PeopleMover discussed again recently.

I see we've reached the "Peoplemover is coming back" part of the rumor cycle before every D23.

I heard PeopleMover discussed again recently.

Discussed as in “tearing down the remnants.”

My blue sky session for D23 for Disneyland Forward expansion regarding Frozen.

Kingdom of Arendelle but different and larger than in Tokyo Fantasy Springs.

Anna and Elsa's frozen journey from DisneySea -the best version of this attraction yet by far.
Include the large mountain with the Ice Castle that Tokyo has except in this case it is an updated/rethemed version of Expedition Everest. (Expedition Arendelle?) Replace the Yeti with the Ice Monster Elsa creates in first Frozen. At the bottom of the mountain add a longer version of Wandering Oaken's Sliding Sleighs from Hong Kong Disneyland that wraps around and through the bottom portion of the mountian.

This would create a large land with a mix of 3 exciting/family friendly attractions that would bring the best elements of Frozen attractions worldwide and add in a new version of Expedition Everest that is too fun of a coaster to only be at one park. This would make DL's Arendelle the best yet and celebrate the massive success of the franchise.
