There's a building in the Frozen area across from the covered pavilion (not the restroom building), is that a gift shop?

Seems odd that the only one in this entire expansion is the hotel shop.

I wish the two FS headlining attractions would have exchanged the ride conveyances.

If one had to be “flume” and the other had to have us travel 2 dimensions/one plane wearing glasses for a screen then I wish Peter Pan would have been the boat in trough ride.

Or it could've been a boat that starts out on water as per the norm before switching to being suspended from an aerial track...

...oh, wait, Universal already patented that

Universal was originally planning that ride system for Zelda at IOA, but moved away from it due to upkeep costs and the fact that suspended rides are a pain to evacuate. Universal has also gotten cold feet on trackless rides as well due to the technical issues they ran into with Kong at IOA.

In this video you can see a bit more of how the ride works. 2 vehicles leave the station at the same time. Meaning one gets the short intro version with the lost boys and the other the long one. I couldn't figure out why some videos had one or the other. Also, looks like vehicles park in front of the large screens like Ratatouille, but in this case a ride vehicle which actually, you know, does something while in front of the screen. Love the integration of sets around most of them.

The vehicles are somewhat larger than I had imagined. Kind of neat. But like back the future and later The Simpsons and also Spider-Man and transformers, they are definitely designed to cut out your peripheral vision. A necessary future but one I did not enjoy if I was not in one of the middle seats. I feel like too much of the show is being cut out of my view.

I think this ride system would have worked much better than trackless for Ratatouille and Zootopia. Those extended chase sequences via large screens just don't work very well with the limited degree of motion trackless vehicles have compared to these ones.

But it still can't have the same degree of motion than a tracked SCOOP due too safety reasons.

Oceaneering’s trackless Revolution vehicles have the same pitch, roll and yaw capabilities as their tracked Evolution vehicles. What it lacks is the heave motion, which isn’t really the big thing people think of with such motion platforms.

Been noticing some of the bgm music on YouTube, mainly live recordings, but so far haven’t found this music. Maybe it’s only played at night?

Interesting Development on Empty Theaters sitting id Tokyo DisneySea.

Hangar Stage is making triumphant return soon. (DPA Seating) maybe?

Mermaid Lagoon Theater has closed its waiting area and now udergoing major refurbishement.

The future of entertainment will be fun in the upcoming years and the goal for the future is Guest interaction/fan votes i.e holograms
