I heard they were tearing down the castle for M&G...
No, they are replacing a lucrative restaurant where people pay top dollar to see the princesses with a M&G where they can do it for free. :brick:

It still is funny to see you still believe PH is happening in the expansion when its been confirmed by multiple insider sources that it has been scrapped from the plans.If the temp m&g goes into the SW building then I think a dragon walk through attraction is a real possibility. It would be a perfect add with the defining of the castle walls and courtyard. It would also answer the "FLE is too girly" problem. Basically a clone of the one in Paris seems possible to me.
I'm convinced PH is happening. What I think may be up in the air is Dumbo (no pun intended :lol. What I think they may be considering is a rather elaborate Alice-land (with a roller coaster that would appeal more to boys) and a more logical and easier to Imagineer transition to PH. My hope is that these two mini-lands would be planned so that at least one dark ride could be added later. Both PH and Alice mini-lands could be done relatively inexpensively and would be coherent, popular, and effective crowd eaters.
At least that is what I would do if I were them.

LOL this thread is taking one crazy turn! Small World isn't going anywhere.

Rumor is nothing new is coming to Epcot and DAK... :lookaroun
Raven, I think I have a love/hate relationship going on with you right now.:ROFLOL:
Can you narrow down between Epcot and DAK?
I know my head is getting a little dizzy from these last few days of posts. FLE(phase 1) being re-thought, phase 2 being axed or not? Pixie hollow is either gone, downsized, or gone all together. Frontierland may be expanded. M&Gs temporary location is going to disrupt/end present attraction. DAK and Epcot getting possible additions.
I guess the questions should be WHEN and WHAT not where. Eventually everything is going to get an upgrade or new attraction.
You also have the refurbishments of Universe of Energy and Journey into Imagination upcoming, with continued Future World beautification and Mission: Space plussing. In World Showcase, you may see attractions in Japan and/or Germany, plus Reflections of Earth enhancements. Re-purposing Millennium Village has also been discussed..
How about if the Meet and Greets replace it's a small world? Remember the odd rumor about the front part of iasw being lopped off to expand the walkway. I also remember a while back something about the roof being in bad condition. I think someone else said something about moving iasw today.![]()
Never heard anything about this but look at overhead imagery. Theres plenty of land to move IASW further back to expand the walkway. And possibly add more rides or other attractions.
Got this idea from http://orlandoparksnews.blogspot.com/2010/02/fantasyland-expansion-part-3.html
Its definitely possible. Plus IASW would be brand new or near new.
Wishful thinking lol.
I'm thinking that the Princesses will be moved to the Sorcerer's Hat until the FLE Phase 1 M&G's are done. Once that happens, they will be moved to their respective M&G areas, and then they will demolish the Hat.
WHEN is not as easy to asnwer as WHAT. Things can be in planning for years before they actually put it into reality. So I cannot correctly answer that question because I do not know myself. WHAT is another thing though. Nothing is set in stone right now and concepts are being thrown around for different things, But concepts and ideas come and go nearly every day so even mentioning one of those things would start faulse hope in some people because they may never come to fruit. That being said I can only answer that I've actually seen a few of these concepts and ideas but, as for right now, they are just that. But at least they ARE looking into it!
