After owning the venerable brand for 7 years, Disney is finally starting to get serious about adding Marvel to its eligible properties (sorry Florida!).
As many of you may recall, a DCA Marvel land has been in development hell at WDI for some time now. It almost got an announcement at D23, with a last minute pull for reworking. Now with all the changes and tightening going on at WDI, it's unknown when this will get off the ground
In two weeks, Captain America and Spider-Man will start greeting guests in Marvel's new home, Hollywood Land. This is, however, just the beginning.
While getting a new E-ticket designed and built will take some time, look for more and more Marvel starting in 2017. I think the additions will pleasantly surprise a lot of people. This is your chance to get on the prediction wagon - how would you handle Marvel at DCA while the big new ride is coming?
Over at DL, Fantasmic will be returning next summer with ch-ch-ch-changes. While I don't have any details on what those might be, I'm hoping that it's going to be a really spectacular update. I for one can't wait! But since we don't know just what the changes will be yet, what movies or characters would you like to see represented?
I remember a proposal in the 90's to add a 20,000 Leagues scene with the Nautilus floating through the river while Mickey dressed in Nemo's red jacket played the organ onstage. That's the kind of inspired weirdness you just don't see at Disney much these days.
I think Frozen is a foregone conclusion, but a Princess and the Frog scene would kill, even if it was just a Facilier scene in the villains montage with some voodoo doll dancers. How about you?
