Rumor Is Indiana Jones Planning an Adventure to Disney's Animal Kingdom?

[doctornick]

I don’t it would be “Indy’s high seas adventure.” but something more like “Indy explores a cursed flooded temple”

So, no reason that (say) the Nile couldn't have flooded an ancient Egyptian temple. Or an Incan temple on the shore of Lake Titicaca.

Each Star Wars Land alone is said to cost $1 Billion. Then each major ride cost upwards of $100 million or more. Avatar is easily $1 Billion.

Each SWL cost includes the attractions.

Avland was less than a billion.

Time to say Forbidden Journey was around 80 million?

Avatar was cut from 3 attractions to 2 before shovel hit the dirt and still internal strife when shovels were hitting the dirt.

The problem is as the cap ex is being cut we end up with dumb ideas such as Indianna Jones running from a T-Rex, rather than reimaginaing to south America wholesale. Disney needs to stop cutting from budgets.

Going from 3 rides to 2 is hardly a detriment to Avatar and they can always add rides later especially with how everyone criticized the river ride.

Ride makeovers happen quite frequently. These rumors about Indy may not come true.

I didn’t think the $1 Billion for SW didn’t include the attractions.

Less or more, it’s still a lot.

It’s an obscene amount.

Yes. So you agree or disagree with SirLink?

Its an obscene amount but they won't have increased total number of attractions in DHS to prior to when Backlot Tour and LMA were operating. Plus WDI can never control budgets properly when they should of been able to spend $500million and get the same result.

Disney is cutting cap-ex but it won't result in producing multiple lands of SWGE quality of what was planned, but instead effects will be cut and never updated when they have the cut. Which when your dealing with themed entertainment is the most important aspect.

I don’t know what I’d be agreeing to. Sorry.

When it’s actual rides instead of a lot of shows and filler, DHS will be better. I still think Toy Story Land needs an extra 2 flat rides, but I wouldn’t call this a capex cutback when they’re spending a ton.

Guardians, Ratatouille, and Tron are the major rides already in progress and will open in that time frame. What else is not coming? The broader Epcot remodel and the rumored Mary Poppins attraction?

An ideal world would be somewhere in the middle. Disney spends way too much, but FJ’s smaller budget betrays it one too many times.

You made it! I knew you would. And guess who made it back with you?

I better find him before security does...

Do you know why there's such a spread between the Orlando Hosmeade budget and USH and USJ? Most people peg Orlando around $250 million but reports put USH and USJ around $500 million and $444 million, respectively. The company that used to own USJ actually put out the $444 million figure.

I don't understand why there'd be such a big difference.

Also, do you know how much Diagon cost?

Man phase 2's only end up in coffee table books

Close the Jungle Cruise and build Indy on that plot of land.
