Is Disney World actually going to leave Florida?

[Lilofan]

WDW will have to move when the FL National Guard sets up checkpoints at the entrances to WDW.

Does Inside the Magic spread lies like the Pillow Guy?

Inside the Magic is claiming that Disney World will "leave" Florida. What does that mean? Are they actually going to close the resort and try to "move it" somewhere else?

Yes. They are going to take a page out of Futurama.

I heard Space Mountain is packed and ready.

Shanghai Disney cost $5.5 billion which is in line with an inflation adjusted Epcot ($1.4 billion in 1982 is about $5 billion today).

So maybe $20 billion total for the 4 parks, another $1 billion total for the 2 water parks (Volcano bay was $500 million), another $5 billion for Disney Springs, and maybe $30 billion total for the 30 resorts… conservative estimate of $56 billion total, less than the Fox deal. Even at nearly double that estimate they could theoretically afford it at $100 billion.

Possible but unrealistic in any way since WDW is already built.

Interesting. Did the exchange rate come into play when Shanghai Disney was being built though? 100 billion is honestly far far less than I would have guessed to rebuild Disney in the US, but maybe it’s “cheaper” (relatively) than I thought.
