Florida would have to have seasons for trees to look like that. I guess trees are cheap except in Galaxy's Edge.

Maybe they are trees like Toontown's "lawn", lol.

Norma Swank-Haviland, Long-Time Chip Voice Actor, Dies At 97

A painter and final checker in Disney's ink and paint department, she took on several voice acting gigs over three decades.

It's interesting that she said she's proud she worked "at Disney's". I've never heard it referred to that way. She worked there over 28 years. She should know.

Could be due to her age.

Maybe it's an east coast thing like how the other side refers to going to Disney World as "Going to Disney". I hate that when they try to refer to Disneyland that way. Disneyland desires more respect.

Someone posted this clip from the Cosmic Rewind queue or preshow. I like Terry Crews but his acting and/or the writing is not the greatest.

Glenn Close is even scary here than in Fatal Attraction.

Cringe.

The whole thing is an elaborate mess and really goes to show how all of the money in the world can’t really make up for mediocre designers. It doesn’t have the story, energy, or humor of Mission Breakout. Hot take here but Disney hasn’t opened a great ride since 2017 and I’m not convinced they’re capable of doing so.

Maybe she meet "at Denny's" ?

So it’s basically a Guardians version of Space Mountain? Is that essentially what it is?

More or less but I think @waltography said - a purpose built Hyperspace Mountain. And I’d still love one or something like it in DCA.

Got it.

I wish they’d build something that actually impressed me again. I haven’t been impressed since RSR.

What about it?

At DLR yeah that’s probably the last real home run with Cars Land. Although many people would say it’s ROTR

I also wouldn't mind seeing something like Cosmic Rewind become the new E-ticket. From what I can see in the POVs it's a fun, lightweight attraction that DCA sorely needs to beef up its offerings. They could still keep the Wakanda angle by opening Avengers HQ as a showcase of Wakandan technology rather than Xandarian tech (which ironically would really tie the "campus" theme together by having all its attractions be STEM-focused in some way).

Rise is basically the Star Wars version of Transformers at Universal, only with more physical sets. The end is essentially Star Tours.

Is it fun? Sure. Impressive? Not at all, personally.

It would make a very good edition. It would be the Space Mountain for DCA. It would fit the Avengers Campus very well. However, I still want that flying jetpack Sorin' ride.
