Iron Man Experience at Tomorrowland?

[Deleted member 107043]

Now look at all the other abysmal lands with their horrible themes and layouts. Literally impossible to improve without some major demo work and re-purposing

Sorry, I don't share this viewpoint. The park's design has some problems, but so does DL. I'm of the opinion that the main drag of Hollywoodland is quite charming, and I think Grizzly Recreation Area, Pacific Wharf, and Paradise Pier are as well themed as anything over at DL. Frankly if I were to choose the most abysmally themed area at the resort it would be Tomorrowland.

What about that one thing someone mention with Star Wars, and Simba parking lot? Couldn't Marvel be put there?

Phillip, do you really think Disney would launch a Marvel musical on the heels of The Frozen show next year? I guess any announcement that's eminent would mean that we wouldn't see the final product until 2020, so I guess it could happen, but it seems unlikely.

It's too bad A Bugs Land is too small for anything significant to be developed in that space. Aside from the clever theming and ITTBAB there isn't anything compelling for me over there.

I think they would considering that there probably is a big Frozen expansion that will get put into disneyland in the next 5 years. Disney is focusing now on adding their biggest properties in the parks which is why you are seeing a bigger Star Wars, Marvel, and Frozen presence in the parks. If they build a Frozen mini land in Disneyland they probably wouldnt care about changing the Frozen musical so soon or they could just move it to another location. A Marvel musical would probably be better received than a Frozen musical anyway.

Since Iron Man is so similar to Star Tours I actually don't want it to come to DL. Otherwise we'd have a Body Wars/Star Tours scenario like at WDW. Now if we were gonna get a clone from a international park. I would either want Pooh's Honey Hunt from Tokyo to replace the current Pooh ride, Ratatouille from Paris, or Light Cycle Run from Shanghai because I'm a sucker for anything Tron related.

Did you forget that one Spiderman musical that got negative reviews?

 

[GiveMeTheMusic]

I don't know where this idea came from that Hollywood Land is going away or being rethemed. Hollywood Land isn't going anywhere. Marvel will be an expansion of Hollywood Land, not a replacement.

How to do you figure? What popular Marvel songs are there? I'm not familiar with any.

 

[Twilight_Roxas]

I guess everyone forgot the accidents, and negative reviews of the musical Spiderman: Turn Off the Dark.

Spiderman, Spiderman,
Does whatever a spider can
Spins a web, any size,
Catches thieves just like flies
Look Out!
Here comes the Spiderman.

Is he strong?
Listen bud,
He's got radioactive blood.
Can he swing from a thread
Take a look overhead
Hey, there
There goes the Spiderman.

In the chill of night
At the scene of a crime
Like a streak of light
He arrives just in time.

Spiderman, Spiderman
Friendly neighborhood Spiderman
Wealth and fame
He's ignored
Action is his reward.

To him, life is a great big bang up
Wherever there's a hang up
You'll find the Spider man.

Now THAT is what I call Tony Award winning Broadway material!

There is no Marvel transformation of Tomorrowland planned. The Iron Man Experience is very specific to Hong Kong and its film would have to be almost completely reproduced to be used elsewhere.

Marvel is going into its own offshoot of Hollywood Land in DCA.

This is becoming increasingly difficult as the recycling facility currently next to Circle D Ranch is relocating to somewhere behind Carsland and ToT. Even if they remove all the portable buildings in the Southeast corner, there is a diminishing amount of land available.

It also raises the question of what do they put in Tomorrowland? I don't think the Hong Kong Ironman attraction is farfetched. It didn't bother them to put Soarin' (over California) at Epcot. I don't see what they put there if not Marvel.
