Tom Fitzerald présente la rénovation de Phantom Manor

I dont have a problem with insane Melanie, but it's so clearly a post hoc move that isn't foreshadowed in any way. They can't just copy-paste HM elements and not go back and retool some things to make sure it fits.

Welcome to the forum! It’s very hard to pin down an exact state as Frontierland in general is definitely a conglomerate of various Western states. As you mentioned, the landscaping does look very different in that corner of the land. At first I was thinking Nevada, but in the stretching room there is now a seaside painting. So then I started to think about coastal states and was immediately reminded of Oregon or parts of Northern California.

Big Thunder Mountain is very southern Utah, and there are many small towns with vegetation that matches the Manor area.

However I don’t think there was ever a gold rush in Utah. That’s more California and Nevada.

So is California or Nevada?

Think of it as taking place in the mythical West, rather than any literal location.

Can anyone tell me what attractions Tom had created from scratch as lead designer? I can't think of them.

Golden Dreams has to be my second favorite Disney attraction featuring Whoopi Goldberg

That makes sense- a film. He doesn't seem to be able to do anything else but movies.

The best things Tom Fitzgerald was ever a part of from what I can tell would be the Horizons bits he was in and the repair droids of the original Star Tours scrap yard queue scene.
