No Pixie Hollow???

It is in California it will not affect WWOHP at all.

However the feeling is that once it's complete in DCA it'll be cloned in DHS as a replacement for that huge waste of space that is the backlot tour.

I just read the JH article again and can't believe that Disney would consider Carsland a Potter killer :lookaroun

I doubt they truly believe DCA will have any impact on Potter in Orlando. But they can't very well admit that they have no answer. So, they shift their focus to the most promising project currently in the pipeline.

Unless a clone is built in Florida.

It would have to very modified to fit there but then maybe but while CL is only in DCA it will have no effect on WWOHP.

I never believed that Pixie Hollow would get done. It was part of Phase 2, and any Disney watcher knows that Phase 2 projects rarely end up happening.

I was pretty sure th budget would be slashed. Like you said, Disney has a lousy track record with Phase 2s. But I always figured (and still do) that they would at least set up a Tink M&G somewhere. It's just too popular.

No question!

Not to belabor the point, but I don't think it would need to be modified all that much. There's plenty of space back there for it. The layout may be changed, but that's about all I'd see beeing needed.

Maybe they think that WWoHP was built at US Hollywood?:shrug:


:lol:

I just hope that if Pixie Hollow doesn't come to fruition that Disney just doesn't leave that area empty or "themed".

Is there any reason to think that's coming any time soon? I mean, I expect clones. But by the time it's done in CA and then cloned here, the newness of Potter will have worn off.

You are right they could also keep Catastrophe Canyon as part of the theming.

Oh well, you were doing so well then I find this. Tragic. FLE is only part of Disney's response to potter IMO. Patience.

What flaw exactly do you see in my commentary?

Yep.

This is what I expect will happen. And some folks around here will cheer anyway because at least PH didn't happen. That would be a shame.

If they want to reduce PH to a Tink M&G, that's fine. But please build something else in its place. I could really care less about what property it's themed to.

Phase 2 is happening.

 

[Mr. Morrow]

Phase 2 is happening.

Who told you this?

 

[lebeau]

Phase 2 is happening.

Your statement indicates a level of certainty that seems unwarranted. Every "insider" indicates that much of Phase 1 is up in the air, much less Phase 2. What indication do you have that Phase 2 is happening? :shrug:

(I already know this is wishful thinking phrased as a statement. I don't know why I bother.)

I dont' know. My thinking is if WDI really wants to develop PIXAR Place as a legitimate part of DHS...it just seems like the logical move they would make.

Speaking of not caring what property was used...if I had a vote I'd cast it for building something themed to Emperor's New Groove! I don't care they did...I just love that movie so much!

Define "Phase 2"....

I wouldn't be surprised if it happens eventually. But since it hasn't been announced it seems unlikely it would be a "Potter killer" just based on timing.
