Rumor Pixar's Coco coming to the Mexico Pavilion

[Lets Respect]

And it has been having better drops than most movies in their second weekend, for example while Coco had a -45.8% drop, Moana had a -50.1% and Frozen a -53.1%.

Coco is running 8% behind Moana right now

That will be a brand new ride for WDW though, with the potential to draw people into the park. An overlay on Gran Fiesta doesn't have that same potential IMO.

Looks at the 1-2 hour wait for Frozen Ever After...

Yeah, overlays don't do anything.

Is happening? For sure 100%? Oh ok

Domestic matters for a U.S park. The other thing that matters is merchandise opportunities, of which Coco is weak

Anyway, just my opinion. Shrug.

Guests from all over the world visit WDW. Not just the US.

Coco is also running 20 millions ahead of Tron

I like how you keep ignoring a basic flaw in your way of thinking

What is the flaw? Do tell. Tron?

Tron is a clone that will add capacity to the most overcrowded park in WDW. This won't add any capacity

That's Frozen though. And it wasn't just an overlay, as crummy as the overlay was. It was a whole little land they reconfigured with the big meet and greet. And yes...it's princesses.

What is the flaw? Do tell

Box office numbers aren't single handedly responsible for deciding what movie gets a ride.

As I've pointed out many times, Tron is getting a new build super expensive ride, and it did really bad at the box office

Sorry, I edited above!

Tron is a clone that will add capacity to the most overcrowded park in WDW. This won't add any capacity

But if the box office numbers are so important, they would have used a different IP instead of Tron

But isn't it a clone? So that would cost money to re-IP it?

I see your point about box office not being the only factor. I still think when you take everything into account for Coco, including the fact that Gran Fiesta already exists (therefore not adding capacity), along with the box office, and lack of merchandise opportunities, this one isn't going to happen. We'll see.

Tron is a clone that will add capacity to the most overcrowded park in WDW. This won't add any capacity

This will cost less than a quarter of what tron will cost. And while coco won't add capacity it will increase utilization of existing capacity.

The flaw is that you are ignoring the many less successful films that have received and are receiving theme park investment.

Shanghai's isn't a clone

Ok, so then they would build a Coco ride regardless of the box office if it added capacity?

Do you just not want them to build it for some reason?

I don't know look at the foreign gross for Coco, seems pretty low if you ask me. Especially for a movie which opened in Mexico and China already.

You should also take in account that the ones who actually have inside information have stated that it's most likely happening unless it is a box office failure similar to The Good Dinosaur (Coco should surpass, at least the domestic gross of TGD, by next week) and that all the plans have been finished, as @marni1971 and @Magic Feather have stated. Also @WildcatDen said that the Coco Overlay was happening even if it's not a box office success (which Coco has proven to be so far)...

No, I already said it would be a welcome refresh.

Ok so it's happening. Okey dokey. No offense to sources, but I'll believe it when I see the release from Disney

True. Coco is already over 171 million overseas.

Remember too, we have Ferdinand coming in less than two weeks. That is going to cut into the kids market
