I could settle for that.

I'd prefer Poppins in the U.K. but i wouldn't hate Pan moving and Tangled taking over ... won't happen but if they insist on characters ... though Adventureland works too

Move Pan to the Circus tent area, retheme the water play area to Neverlan with Hook's Pirate ship, build from the ground up an all new expanded and double tracked PPF. That is truly the one ride in the park that is the shortest and the most popular. Make it better and longer and a bigger people eater...
Then use the old PPF for a Tangled dark ride...that just makes sense

What cultural significance do Peter Pan, Mary Poppins or Tangled have to the United Kingdom other than the setting? Are any of those stories altered significantly if the setting is in Canada?

Maybe it's because the last two trips I had at Disney were in the summer and spring break, but I always remember Small World having a line?
Here's photo proof of me and my sister waiting in line for iasw (looking back on this makes me feel super old) in 2008-
I think we waited somewhere around 30 minutes for it (could have been longer, it's been awhile lol).
In June 2008 we waited close to an hour. It was horrible and I won't ever forget it.
I was with a 3 and 6 year old.. bought the 3 year old a Buzz Lightyear toy nearby to keep him occupied lol

What cultural significance does Frozen have? Donald? Characters are here and they aren't going away. I don't like it but you and I both know they don't care at this point. They should, but they don't, so that's why I'm going with that. Was I suggesting Tangled for Epcot? No.
Then the strategies are working...

This was pre FP+ though.

Peter Pan needs work as well. What is your definition of from the ground up?

Right on. Plus Disney, everyone likes to point out, wants to put IP's into the parks and there is a brand new Poppins movie coming out next year.

Oh for sure. I misunderstood, thought you were saying that the line was due to the "new-ish" FP system.

Carousel of Progress on twitter says Tomorrowland will get a new name. Discoveryland.
3 or 4 new attractions
A tron attraction is one of them but not the coaster. The coaster is being considered as a last resort.
New area lighting.

Frozen Ever After and Gran Fiesta Tour were bad thematic choices, that doesn't mean they should continue to make those same choices. I know I'm fighting a lost cause here but I'd like to see a bit more appropriateness out of attractions in World Showcase.

I've sourced him a few times on my site, but I'm not convinced he has the best info. I'll wait until others chime in here...

I feel the same. He's gotten a few things right, but most of them were things that would have been somewhat easy to predict.
If this is true, I hope it wouldn't cost us Peoplemover or Astro.

Me too but it's not up to us, unfortunately. So I've decided to "go with it" and pick rides I'd personally like to see either be moved or added. Poppins and Pan would probably never happen but they wouldn't be the most awful choices.

I looked and it I've already CarouselOf sourced in my Tomorrowland rumor back in October when he also said:
November 2, 2016: @CarouselOf (Post 1, Post 2) on Twitter is reporting that a new Tomorrowland music loop should debut in 2017.
October 21, 2016: @CarouselOf on Twitter is reporting that Tomorrowland will be renamed to Discoveryland.
October 9, 2016: @CarouselOf on Twitter is reporting that Tomorrowland may soon see a name change.
