His DL news is disappointing. He STILL hasn't covered the new light parade scheduled for 2014, and DCA is WAY overdue for a new day parade, so it's kind of a given Pixar will be replaced within the next couple years.

Sad to hear Iron Man is being delayed - hopefully the new Tomorrowland project will be worth it, unlike 1998.

I'm definitely up for a new parade at DCA.

As far as Iron Man goes, if it's even happening, if there will be a Tomorrowland renovation, I'd be willing to wait and have Iron Man open with the other new things.

Sorry, I just thought because it was the same writing that both of them are based on, but whatever…

I really hope DL gets iron man!

Don't apologize, you're good! I've noticed the younger users apologize a lot here. Such nice children lol.

I hope it happens, too. The whole new Tomorrowland shebang.

What do you mean exactly?

Wait, I think I know what you're referring to. Stark Expo?

Yes, Stark Expo, the supposed link between contemporary super heroes and the world of Tomorrow. Stark Expo is based very much in Walt Disney's conception of Tomorrowland along with the 1964 - 65 New York World's Fair. It's Disney once again showing no faith in the medium of themed entertainment. Stark Expo shows how people are still interested in the concept, but Disney has no faith that being true to just Tomorrowland's spirit will resonate with guests. Such a concept must be wrapped in a franchise with proven financial success. So we get a facsimile of the original actually within the original.

I understand what you're saying. Although I agree with what you're saying, I'd be seriously happy and excited for an attraction based off Stark Expo. Of course I'd have to see the concept, first.

I'm glad to hear that Hollywoodland and Paradise Pier will get some cosmetic changes :)

Not so happy about the IronMan delay, although I understand that it's better to make a big change I don't understand how they are not cashing in yet at Marvel. Marvel/Avengers is very in right now, if they continue that way it will take them 4 or 5 more years and who knows if they are still in there.

Oh and did anyone read the fastpass change? Interesting. Not that it really bothers me.

The FP rumor has been floating around since WDW announced they were going to start enforcing the FP return time. I feel bad for the CMs who are going to have to deal with angry DL APHs. There are a lot of them who will not like this change.

Yep, especially the ones who have an entire plan on how to come back basically whenever they want.

I honestly think Marvel is getting in the way and protecting their characters from Disney's over-exploitative synergy machine. Marvel plans to make these films for many years, they can't have Disney cramming them down everybody's throats to the point of being sick of them.

They are definitely being made fairly quickly, for some reason. I really love Marvel so I don't mind, but it does seem a little odd that all I these Marvel films are coming out basically at once.
