Rumor Pixar's Coco coming to the Mexico Pavilion

[Kevin_W]

I largely disagree after seeing Pixar Live at DHS last summer.

I'm less of a fan of the Newmans, but I love the Music for Brave, and I think Michael Giacchino's work is very good - Incredibles and Up in particular. I didn't realize that he also conducted the Coco soundtrack.

We just watched the Blu-Ray of Coco this weekend. It's probably a top-5 Pixar film for me. I'd love to see the boat ride updated with this.

"Fool me 587 times"

You've literally been posting here for 4 months tomorrow. How many times could you possibly have been "fooled" by our insiders? Here's something interesting: Many of us have been posting here for a very very long time. There's a reason people who have been active here for nearly 20 years trust certain posters with their information.

With all due respect, a lot of your posts come off a little trollish sometimes. Especially considering how little time you've been here. You weren't even here for last year's D23, but then want to come in and tell respected people with proven track records that they're wrong? C'mon.

I saw "funding already allocated/earmarked"...hilarious, no such thing occurs until you see construction.

That's a strange assertion. Funding for projects is allocated well before construction begins. How else would they pay for the construction? Do you really think that they just go in and start digging and building and figure out how much it's going to cost as they go?

And "maybe they can move the ride from the Mexico pavilion to the Brazil pavilion?"...

...in seriousness...there are no known words to cover that...

I have no doubt that modern Disney would not ever do something like this, and I also get a chuckle out of the people who think they would move something like IASW to Epcot. However, with that being said - they've moved a ride from one coast to another and then to yet another before, so the thought that they could move a ride a few feet within the same park isn't completely ludicrous.

Well, to be fair to him, he tries to make up for it by posting the same points thirty or forty times per thread.

Pixie pounders generally hurt the consumers...because they accept that paying more for the same or less is reasonable longterm...which it isn't. Propping their decisions up on boards like this ultimately emboldens them (disney). You're doing free research for them. The fact that many disneyfiles aren't mentally strong enough to say "no" is ultimately my problem...and everyone else's.

The insiders aren't like that...they display a lot of warranted cynicism. They've learned/earned it.

Would you care to discuss the parking fees? I bet there's some "lurk" but no talk there because defense of disney isn't an option. I've seen some from others.

I love wdwmagic for its reaasonable climate...but it's not that different than others. How long have I been around again? Can you look at what I write and think im 26 and have been to pop or port 3x every 3-5 years?

If so im a real chameleon!!

My problem (if I really had one...which I don't) is not with the insiders. They are great...and I'm 100% convinced are far more reasonable/realistic than those that jump to their defense without reason.
Anyone who's BEEN AROUND knows nothing is guaranteed...and that things turn south in the halls of disney on a dime (literally)...it's not an exact science.

But trends, patterns, and business acumen apply. The crowd cheering on the players never honestly matter in this game.

I bet if I had asked @marni1971 a year ago what the likelihood of these three things happening: a guardians coaster in energy, a ratatouille clone in France, or a Brazil pavilion being constructed...

He would have said "pretty good/recent", "pretty good/decent", and "not likely at all".

Because that is the pattern...it turns a rumor into an "educated rumor"

Logic still applies...(as much as I have resisted saying it).

I'm about as cynical as they come when it comes to modern WDW, so I really have no idea what you're trying to say here. Even my avatar is cynical.
I've also "BEEN AROUND" basically since this version of the site was launched aaaaalllll the way back in 2001, so I'm well aware of how this works. It's you that seems to not be.

All I know is your general MO seems to be saying that you don't have a problem with the insiders, but then turning right around and saying that you don't believe anything that they say. Much of what you post is some variation of this pattern. It's a little tiresome. I don't believe in the ignore function, but you make it tempting sometimes, even if I do honestly like some of what you post.

This is a rumors board. Amazingly, there are going to be rumors posted on it. Not all of them will come true. As has happened often in the past, even things that are officially announced quietly fade into distant memory. Hell, even ground being broken doesn't mean anything.

reaasonable climate...but it's not that different than others. How long have I been around again? Can you look at what I write and think im 26 and have been to pop or port 3x every 3-5 years?

My apologies, I'm honestly not sure what this part even means.

The point is that you seem to come into every discussion with the intent to tell everybody why they shouldn't believe what the insiders put out there, but then want to turn around and say that you respect the insiders and their information? It's very odd, and I'm certainly not the first to notice.

Three years ago Energy was favourite to get a refurb. Sigh.

But if it helps Rat was also a catagoric no.

Do you ever hear anything and shake your head as instinct and say "no way!"?

(You're gonna owe me $225 for this hour of therapy...i ain't cheap )

Yep. More from disappointment than surprise though. Avland was a surprise.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Avatar land was logical in the framework of Harry Potter though, wasn't it? And from the operational realities of DAK?

My point - and I thank you for playing along brilliantly - is that all rumor discussion can be framed and discussed intelligently. I think you would agree (correct if I'm wrong)? As opposed to always devolving into questions like "is it gonna be open by next summer?!? Should I move my trip up?!?" And giving disney credit for what's not been built...which always happens.

The time and place for that is after groundbreaking.

I'll admit - to your defenders...obviously you don't care - that the idea to move a 35 year old ride from one pavilion to another that's not built to allow for an entire new $100-200 ride to be built based on a movie that premiered
Less than 4 months ago did strike a "nerve"...and that's rare under my sarcastic shield.

Not really. They had "Potter Swatters" (not my words) lined up at the end of the last decade. They were deemed not needed. If Avland was a response after the fact I don’t know. I hope you realise I deal in what I can verify and is more than just rumour. Though I have no desire to prove anything nor really care if I’m believed or not. What others talk about isn’t down to me. I also hope this isn’t "about me"!

- despite the new village idiot probably wishing it was.

Interested in hearing more about these planned "Potter Swatters," if you're able to share anything.

Going back around a decade, a fully refurbed Space Mountain, a new Imagination, Monsters coaster and a complex for DAK partly cloned on the TDS Mysterious Island.

Thanks! I wonder if the Monster Coaster would have been original or a Rock n Roller coaster refurb? Ideas at Disney never die though, wouldn't be surprised if a few of these things eventually happen in some capacity or another. As cool as Mysterious Island would have been, doubtful present-day Disney would ever bring it back, especially since the addition of Pandora and the rumors of other IP coming to DAK.

It was original and has been gone into detail elsewhere in the forums. It was the second phase of Pixar Place.

That's right up there with fire mountain

That's what's I think...gut reaction like Everest.

No...not at all about you. It's just about those others that have no sense/insight into how the walt disney company operates and get indignant if you bring it up to them.
