I understand Disney Chiropractor+ has entered early development.

Disney really needs to promote the health benefits of their rides...

This Roller Coaster Helps People Pass Kidney Stones (Yes, Really)

A small study in the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association found that riding a roller coaster may help a person pass kidney stones.

I saw this on Twitter weeks ago. It’s now a stroller parking lot. I hope a Dinoland replacement is up next.

Ah the Circle of Life....started out as a parking lot, then a Rollercoaster and now back to a parking lot...

Anyone who wants Zootopia in Animal Kingdom has no idea what Animal Kingdom is.

Sad, it always snapped my back quite proper when needed.

Now you'll need to hit Space Mountain for that fix

You’re exactly right.. well trust me I agree with you 100% but when you think about it there was supposed to be mythological creatures but never any IP‘s oh I’m sorry I forgot countdown to extinction I meant dinosaur I mean forget it have a magical day I know what you’re saying though

We shall see

Any word on what is replacing it?

The pavement sure needs some work!

There are two large projects set for 2025 that I know of. And I’m sure minor additions as well. Shows, for example.

So with the official timeline for Epic Universe opening set for Summer 2025, do we think Disney counters with something in the same timeframe? They'd probably have to start building this year to make 2025 so they'd have to greenlight something soon. I wonder if we would hear about anything at D23.

A Mary Poppins carousel should be enough.

Are they gonna use deloreans as construction vehicles?

Zootopia totally fits. Judy was a cop, and what is a zoo but an animal prison?

More seriously, a South America section would possibly be best out of the options mentioned. Doubly so if they get penguins.

I've always thought it was foolish to build an attraction around a particular IP before it has proven its worth over time. Encanto is sorta popular now, but will it be in ten years? Zootopia? Same.

How long did they wait before they put in a Little Mermaid attraction?? That's what I'm talking about...

Attractions should be good with or without an attached IP.

By having an attraction, an IP's longevity and staying power will automatically be greater. Films with cool worlds, like Encanto, are ripe for Theme Park attractions. How cool would it be to step into a Madrigal room?

A better comparison in my mind is Frozenstrom. That was three? years after they had their #1 box office smash hit that drove their core demo wild.

Heh... WDW created A Bug's Life attraction before the movie was even released.

I'd be willing to hear out an Ice Age ride before zootopia.

If you want to call a play area an "attraction." That's just where we went to let the kids blow off some steam. They had no clue that it was themed.
