IDEA for the SE corner of DCA

A variation --with an even larger tiered balcony-- of the top of the Avengers NYC building (with the room where Hulk smashed Loki) would be cool at the SE corner of DCA (where a 7-11 now stands) in the block that the Disneyland Resort is located on.

Maybe a hotel and/or E-ticket ride could be below it in the building, and the balcony (that the pre-smashed Loki landed on after arrow-guy shot him down) could be a wonderful space, 20 floors up looking out over DCA.

Disney loves cloning things, so what they've learned from the Marvel-refurbed NYC hotel at the Disneyland Paris resort could be a good starting point for the interior decorating of this only American, Marvel-themed hotel.

While we're on the subject of DCA's new, MCUland, I predict that the always-delightful Knott's Scary Farm will have a parody of it in their Hanging show with the flying Spiderman... --well, so many hilarious ways to go with this!


Note to WDW-fans who haven't been to CA:
Yes, The Disneyland Resort is located on one giant city block. The convenience is fantastic--think Universal Orlando, but with the entrances to the two parks located across from each other in a nice space. (That was Michael Ovitz's one excellent contribution to Disney, BTW.) Consider NOT getting a WDW timeshare if it's not too late, & instead of going to WDW every summer, visit S. CA, Europe & Japan. You can still visit Disney parks (skip the Paris studios park!) and your kids will learn more. Maybe visit WDW every 3rd or 4th summer.

Disney, make each park so different & wonderful that visits to almost all of them would be more worthwhile.

Logistical question: are you talking about expanding DCA to the corner of Katella and Harbor where the 7-11 is? Because there's another mini-market, a rental car place, 4 hotels and the DCA service road between that corner of the park and the7-11.

SSG, you rule! Thanks for sharing that photo! Yes the other MUCH smaller hotels, the rental car place, the service road & a lot of that "off stage" (off limits to guests) stuff behind the Tower of Guardians Terror must all go for my much larger Avengers HQ Hotel. And only people staying at the hotel or eating at Jarvis' Grill restaurant (on the second highest floor--D.lan'd answer to the CA Grill) may ride the slow or fast rides down into DCA.

Whole your idea is good, I’d prefer for Disney to create something original or, at least use an IP that Disney actually “created” instead of “purchased.”

Guys and gals, it seems that the OP wants to talk about putting an Avengers Hotel in the SE corner of the park. I don't know that generic 'No IPs' responses are useful. But that's just me.

Because people dont want more Marvel or any branding.

Didn't Walt have over a dozen IPs at Disneyland when it opened? I'd list them along with others introduced during Walt's first Disneyland decade, but it might get deleted.

And I went from your post to IKEA's meat balls, to Knott's Boysenberry meatballs.

(Sorry CMWade77 if "boysenberry" an IP! What do or did you do at a Disney park? I was a Jungle Cruise Guide at Disneyland in the 1980s.)

Walt also had unique things that were not based on movies. Furthermore Walt's movies were adaptations of classic fairy tales that had been around hundreds of years, not Disney properties so to speak.

Disney hasn't made an original non movie based ride in California (not counting carnival rides) since Soarin Over California and Super Star Limo 20 years ago.

Not sure when the last non movie based ride was made in Disneyland itself, I guess Rocket Rods in 1999?

I'd just as soon have the Avengers hotel tower built above the ride building or connected to the side. It would be a great idea for another hotel here with it's own park entrance.
