How about a ride where you drive a Multi-Troop Transport crushing as many trees and animals as possible. After the ride, they show you how much ecological damage you've caused.

At the last moment they've switched to a CARS theme it seems

Sources comes from a website I can't put here for some reason
Seems like they might be doing some utility work right now, though I'm curious to see what's going on in the backstage area as it does look like they're focusing on clearing that out for the Encanto showbuilding

Now that Epic is in previews, he can move on to this and the Cars projects.

I think it's cause we can't talk about TBA in the Tiana threads. OT or some such nonsense.
And ospreys.

Now you've got me picturing Indy on the hunt for a mythical treasure and the ride ending with him saying, "Knowledge was their treasure. Their treasure was knowledge."
But to your point, sure, I could see a story which ends with Indy getting clapped back by nature.

Yeah, and AK tends to be a little more subtle with theming so I don’t necessarily see a wrap-up moment where they verbalize the moral of the story. But Indy messing with natural forces and getting more than he bargained for is 90% likely, to my mind.I kinda think Encanto will be the more difficult one to blend in, thematically. That one may be more “Well, it’s a butterflies and rainbows fairytale but it’s enclosed”.

So minor update to this but based off of some videos I've seen recently about TA, it does seem like all the trees from behind the former Primeval Whirl have been cut down. Idk how obvious this was, but I thought I should let everyone know just in case

You can see the clearing from the hill on Everest. I was blown away by how much they've taken out back there.
I have always enjoyed Toon Lagoon to JP because of this. You can choose to wait and cha ge after JP or before if you dont mind beung damp vs soaked.

Do we think the carousel coming with the Tropical Americas will be a standard carousel with Disney characters, or could it be something modern and unique like this?

That carousel is fantastic... I feel certain Disney would never do something this unique and outside the bok...will probably be a midified normal carousel with Dia de Muertos theming and characters.....since it was supposed to be based on Coco.... But I would not anticipate crazy animated figures like this one..... Would be so glad if they did....but I would not expect it based on what we have seen them do in the parks recently....
This carousel goes days without a limb being lost!

I knew about the concept art, I'm just wondering if the figures are going to be animated/move uniquely, or if it's just another basic carousel. The carousel at Epic Universe is unique, but nothing crazy. Even though this new carousel is an A-Ticket (B-Ticket if we're being generous, though the castle park carousels were only ever A Ticket iirc), it should still offer something unique for being a carousel built in 2025.
Maybe each animal character moves in a different way- Eeyore moves up and down really slowly, Bambi does short hops/prances, Kevin has big up and down strides, Kaa "slithers" by rotating side-to-side or has several seats that go up and down in a wave pattern, etc etc. Lots of things they can do to make it more unique than Prince Charming's Carousel. Will they do it though? We'll have to wait and see.
(Also, is that Heimlich behind Bambi and Eeyore? If so, what a cute way to honor It's Tough to Be a Bug!)
