Encanto Integration Idea

[Loopsie]

I'm not going to lie, Encanto might be my favorite Disney movie (it's at least top 5). The emotional core of this movie REALLY caught me off-guard when I watched it at the premiere. I hadn't cried that much in a Disney flick since Lilo & Stitch.

Also, Rambozo and itsy bitsy spider are obviously alts of Mickey Mouse 10. C'mon, you're not even trying to troll if that's your attempt.


Anyway, pls bring the Madigrals to the Disney parks.

, nope not me. I've got other things to do besides be on the board 24/7. People just seem to be peed off that I'm putting down "Encanto". I honestly don't know why. It isn't a good movie.

Encanto aside, you've gotta admit it is pretty strange that you and, like, 6 other accounts consistently post and reply to each other within 30 minutes of each other most every day. So really it's not being on the board 24/7 - more being on the board for 30-40 minutes.

Back on topic, who actually cares if Encanto was a flop? This is a fan forum. It's all fictional. I could write a Home on the Range ride and it literally wouldn't matter. Let people like what they like, and write what they want. This is a place to share ideas - not put others down because you didn't like the movie. Thinly-veiled trolling or not this is getting ridiculous.

This is the second time in a month that you and your "friends" have come to a thread out of the blue to harass another user. Maybe the 6 or 7 of you could work together to bring ideas rather than negativity.

To piggy back on this going after a user or even saying you’re making them look like a fool may so some real damage to someone who isn’t sure of themselves. We get a lot of younger people who can take what some stranger says to heart and it may discourage them from ever sharing their ideas on these forums again. That isn’t what these forums are about we are about welcoming all ideas regardless of what they are.

What we dont do is go into a thread and essentially say thats nice but I don’t like this movie so this sucks. What we don’t do is go to someone else’s thread and hijack it with your own ideas (fine if its open brainstorming but not fine when it’s someone’s personal project). What we don’t do is call other user’s names or being them down. There is enough negativity in this world let’s leave out in the world and not in the forum.

You're entitled to your opinion.

But your opinion is a minority one...

 

[JokersWild]

LOL, I'm sure they don't post everyday on my stuff. But it's all good man. Believe what you want.

But, a Home on the Range attraction would actually be pretty cool in Frontierland. I've actually thought of that too, but again it is a floparoonie. No money no honey.

LOL

We're up to 3. I can keep going if you'd like. The photos with the white background are from the ThemeParkInsider version of your Beastly Kingdom thread. This was after 10 minutes on google....

I think this has run its course. Sorry for hijacking your thread, @cdunlap. I've known about some of this for a while, but I didn't really care until they started harassing people directly.

Anyway, I think that Encanto would be a great addition for EPCOT. While I'm not personally always a huge fan of IP usage in EPCOT (especially World Showcase,) Encanto would be a really fantastic way to get a smaller country into World Showcase. All of your attractions sound super interesting and I'd love to see them fleshed out! Welcome to the forum! I promise the community is more lowkey usually.

Yet Home on the Range has a minor presence in the Frontierland Pin Shop and the petting zoo at Rafikis Planet Watch proving that any film can be represented at Disney with stores and attractions

 

[tcool123]

Anyways a more immediate implementation of Encanto would be a sing a long ala Frozen. There are a few options for where it could go: Theater of the Wild at Animal Kingdom, or replacing Frozen/Little Mermaid at Studios. Capitalizes on the biggest thing from the film: it’s soundtrack.

Another concept could be a standalone flat ride set inside Casita. It could be a dancing flat ride ala Luigis Rollickin Roadsters in DCA with two dance floors one in Isabellas room and another in Antonio allowing for plant life and animals to dance along to the music and a dynamic backdrop for the ride

 

[tcool123]

Also hailing from @TheDesignPirate ’s TikTok there’s an Encanto concept art set to replace its to be a bug centered around Antonio and his animals which could work as well!

You can't really trust Rotten Tomatoes anymore. Critics have their agendas and people can review bomb certain films.

lol

When the whole world disagrees with you, question all sources of information so it looks like you're right. Go ahead, call it "fake news," we know you wanna.

Encanto's box office take is $234 Million. The average cost of a movie ticket is $9. So, that's 26 Million people that went to see it.

In the first two and a half weeks Encanto was on D+, it got 4 Billion minutes of streaming. (We don't have up to date numbers because Nielsen publishes their numbers of a month ago). The film is just over 100 minutes, so, that's the equivalence of being watched 40 Million times.

Yes, RT has had reviews 'bombed,' but by your reasoning, there is also an up-bombing? And Encanto is an example of that? You think it is rational that several thousand people up-bombed Encanto such that its audience score isn't reliable? I can see that since RT only has 2,500 'voters' (and that number is historically small since RT has put in a lot of measures to prevent 'bombing.') and a small number is easy to influence.

So, let's go to IMDB which has 132K votes, which makes it very difficult to 'bomb' in either direction. The audience score is 7.3, which is high for IMDB.

And what exactly is the agenda of all these critics and reviewers whom you can't trust? I suppose you're going to use the old tried and true conspiracy theory that they're all in Disney's pocket and won't ever give a Disney movie a bad review. To that end, I point you to the score of Chicken Little (36), Cars 2 (55), Thor 2 (66), Aladdin Live Action (59), Nutcracker (54), Pirates: Dead Men Tell No Tales (47).

So, again, I say to you: lol.

Beastly Kingdom 5th Park (update on pg 10) (The Great Egyptian Lodge)

The following is from a Beastly Kingdom 5th park thread I saw made by poster disneysource11 on multiple message boards. I'm not sure what forum it belongs in here because it sounds like Armchair Imagineering. The following is what I’m hearing from my source. Beastly Kingdom (possibly...

Me reading this thread ^

I must admit the dedication is impressive. Some alternates even have full backstories and wait 2 weeks in between posts. Also look out for the cameo appearance of the original disneysource11

It's odd that I always see these accounts posting on the same threads, and typically out of nowhere.

That explains a lot. I always saw this group of accounts in random threads and thought they were kind of a group of old forum vets or something who liked to keep to themselves, but no this makes way more sense.

 

[tcool123]

It could replace Frozen at DCA, too.

Good point I’m very unfamiliar with Disneyland, but if I’m not mistaken Frozen did come to an end? Would be a great to turn around the Hyperion Theater into the next hit property!

 

[AFoodie]

My takeaway: “global pandemic” is redundant (sorry, couldn’t resist. My job involves words & phrases).

Oh yeah, and people have different tastes in music. I liked Encanto musical style of modern/Latin American mash-up.

I like the idea of adding this as a South America addition to DAK, but I wouldn’t be opposed to another pavilion in Epcot. Both are my fave parks!

 

[tcool123]

I'd say Encanto is a rare IP where it works in all four parks. Any IP can fit into Studios as is the nature of the park. Magic Kingdom allows for Adventureland or Fantasyland for the IP to be worked in. Epcot has World Showcase, Play Pavilion, and I'd argue The Land albeit that would be a pretty bad spot but there could be justification thanks to Tia Pepa/Isabella/Antonio, and Animal Kingdom thank to that same trio would work well.

Tía Pepa's Weather Pavilion!

This pretty much confirms Encanto was a hit, and interesting that it was described as a franchise could lead to more content down the road.

I don't want to spoil exactly where Encanto ranks in my overall Walt Disney Animation Studios rankings as I plan on doing a three part podcast series about that topic soon, but suffice to say Encanto ranking as high as it does on said list was what sparked me to plan that series to begin with. My passion for Encanto runs pretty deep at this point. I honestly thought I had outgrown watching movies over and over like I did as a teenager but Encanto is a rare exception. There's just so many little details, character moments, and subtle story beats that I've found going back to the film to be a bit of a "comfort zone" for me recently.

I absolutely think it would make for a TERRIFIC attraction. Oddly enough I think Epcot's Mexico pavilion would provide the perfect framework for how I could see the land being structured. I think the Casita itself would make a fantastic indoor land and the Imagineers would be able to go freaking nuts with practical effects and interactive elements. I think the fact that we only see a couple of the rooms in the movie is basically a rare open canvas for a pre-established IP for the Imagineers to once again to absolutely buck wild with creativity. I think a Mystic Manor style tour through each family member's room would be incredible and is almost too perfect of a format for a dark ride.

Since it was already brought up, here's some shameless self promotion


Also Tia Peppa's weather pavilion. Yes. Just freaking yes. Give it to me. Inject it directly into my bloodstream.

As long as the food is authentic Colombian unlike the booth at Festival of the Arts, I'm onboard!

You have some great ideas, but there's only one problem. "Encanto" is a lousy movie, I seem to like it less and less the more I think about it.

It has No Villain, No Love Interests (for the main character) and horrible music. I had to forward over the annoying songs. It was like listening to both a screeching cat and nails on a chalkboard.

I agree. It was very boring for me. Disney animation has been pretty lacking for the past couple of years. In my opinion. Raya was boring, frozen 2 was ok, and wreck it Ralph 2 was probably the worst Disney animation movie I have ever seen.
