I think they are putting a hold on all new projects where money isn't already allocated due to the closing of parks overseas etc. so this would shock me... actually it would shock me altogether... however, I would welcome new people eaters/attractions anywhere we can get them. the parks are becoming a madhouse - they have to do something

Interesting not sure if there is any truth to it.

So Ken (author of the article) reached out to me earlier this week about the Screamscape "Cars going to Test Track" rumor. I simply can't justify any Screamscape rumor being true. I won't source them on my site unless there is an additional source.

This isn't the worst idea, especially if it adds more family-friendly capacity to the park. (Hopefully several flat rides/dark rides.) This would be quite nice.

Fully acknowledging that this is fake at worst and far from being approved at best... is there a particular footprint in the park that is being eyed as the site for any expansion like this?
I guess what I'm wondering is that Echo Lake and Animation Courtyard seem like the most likely targets for redevelopment in the relatively near future - is one of those the more likely site for any changes?
Depends how the black box project develops.

What is the black box project?

I believe that is the black box attraction that was suggested to take the place of VotLM in DHS. It would be a convertable space to be able to be "cheaply" and "quickly" converted from time to time. It has been rumored for quite a while.

I’ve no idea if the black box is based on it or not but the tech used to film the mandalorian could possibly be used to create a great easy to update ride system:

the issue is that like other easy to update rides like star tours and toy story mania how often would disney actually update the attraction?

Some new The Mandalorian Stagecraft photos show how the new LED screen technology is used to extend sets and create immersive environments on set.

How does "Pixar" become a theme. It's a lot of unrelated films and characters ... and rightly so.
That would be like back in the day, creating an MGM Land.
It's kind of hazy to me and my family already which are Disney, Pixar, DreamWorks and Other cartoons let alone live-action studios. I couldn't tell you who made Harry Potter vs Lord of the Rings for example or who makes DC Comic movies.
Would this be a case of corporate insiders projecting their personal, significant internal organizational perceptions of "properties" onto the public?

Ask Pixar Pier that question

It's more the byproduct of the fact that Pixar movies generally don't belong anywhere within the old "Cardinal Realm" structure since most of them are either "Modern human city from a non-human perspective" or "Modern human society but populated by non-humans". Also all that Pixar Theory nonsense. I made this chart months ago to kinda illustrate this point, but even I think Incredibles is a stretch to put there what with it being "1960s with comic book super science that achieves that Tomorrowland aesthetic".

Could I interpret that to mean ... instead of an "IP branding or theming opportunity" this is more like ... "cloning opportunity?"Ask Pixar Pier that question
Is the rumored new thing more or less a CTRL-C, CTRL-V ?
I don't know anything about Pixar Pier but I suppose that when it was conceived the Pixar brand was more distinct in the public's mind.
