It's surely not perfect (far from it), and admittedly Spider-man is dumb and redundant.
But nothing in A Bug's Land was particularly worthwhile, even if the land itself was a nicer place to spend time than AC.

AC is definitely garbage, but losing abl for that will always make more sense than the removal of GMR for MMRR in capacity-starved DHS.

They need to to knock it out of the park. Hoping that King Thanos ride isn’t a Transformers ride.
In terms of Disney level quality theming and atmosphere, the ITTBAB queue (not even including the show) was better than everything in AC proper put together… in my humble opinion.
Nothing in AC is transportive in any way. Of course the chosen setting doesn’t help with that at all. I’d imagine the budget had something to do with the setting choice though.

I always viewed the setting as the limitation of the brand. They needed something that could have every Marvel character from the last decade- plus all the new ones. And since WDI is far too literal these days, instead of just making a super fun land richly themed to a setting like Wakanda- even if it 'breaks' story, they had to ensure the land could have every character and maintain whatever story they were trying to tell.
It's like the exact opposite problem Galaxy's Edge has- where they were too specific on Timeline and setting which has hindered the land since day one. AC is just too generic to leave any kind of lasting impression despite the fact entertainment is working their butt off to have the best meet and greets.

The brand is limiting to an extent but what would be wrong with a romanticized San Francisco being the Marvel Land? Im guessing the budget and size constraints but every time I want to give WDI the benefit of the doubt I think of things like the new POTC auction script.
AC isn’t transportive in anyway. We don’t go to another time, place or fantasy world. Just present day warehouse/ business park/ community college blandness. The only time I feel any sort of emotion is when Spider-Man launches.

Agreed! And I doubt many Marvel fans are willing to make the trek to Anaheim solely to experience Avengers Campus.
whatever Marvel based land Disney eventually builds in DHS, it better have the same budget/immersion as Star Wars got. I like AC, at least the one in CA, but Marvel is a pillar of the Disney brand and deserves something major. More of a headquarters than a campus. Also, I want to see Xmen and FF

Also why is it anytime I try to explain what AC or Mission Breakout is there are like three forward slashes. Shouldn’t be so hard to describe a land. Should be obvious.

You might see them in Cali but not in Florida...

Or even worse, using a Simpsons/BTTF ride system.

I feel like people have been saying this for the last 12 years or so.

Hoping that’s not the new marquee. Otherwise everything sounds good.

Honestly I like it a lot. Reminds me of this old sweatshirt design they used to sell.
