Play Pavilion is the easiest addition if they need something new. And there are several entertainment options. But as for large, new builds, considering how much Iger is dismantling Chapek’s plans, it’s hard to say. I presume Poppins is now fully-dead. Those blue sky DAK and MK ideas might have flown out the window, too. I presume Iger would be more interested in a Pandora addition.

Agree on TBA.
Some acronyms are just too confusing to be of any practical use

Those were not real…I thought we all understood this? Part of the reason it was easy to fire slappy

In an ideal world, a new ride in DAK (Moana?) would be the big think for 2025

I would imagine well at least see a new show in DAK and maybe a new parade in MK to be used to advertise
Based on construction timelines?

Impossible.

We are at 2028 if somebody puts up a podium and makes an announcement right now.

This is another “legacy” of Iger…building for appearances and not for completion.

Tron clone is 5 years on…it was a clone.

Man... this brings back memories riding Tron in Shanghai. I wish they had virtual queue back then.

It was impossible to get on the ride without buying a fastpass. Had to buy a fastpass (20 dollars for one ride).... go to a castmember who was holding a sign with the date and also a 'hat of the day'. They took a picture with your own cellphone. This picture you had to show to the castmembers at the entrance of the ride. fun times.

Personally, I would just throw Crush’s Coaster where PW was, leave Dinoland otherwise intact, and add to Pandora.
Agree on Dinoland and Pandora, but that PW space could be used so much better than Crush Coaster which would be just as bad capacity wise as PW. I don't know if the Excavator Coaster is the correct choice but something a bit more visually interesting and larger than crush coaster should go there IMO.

It was easily our favorite ride at WDSP (no great feat…but still. Fun ride.), but moreover, I was thinking it has a more appropriate height requirement and is next to a Nemo show. Capacity is a concern.

Excavator is on the schedule…right after thunder Mesa, fire mountain and the storm rider 👍🏻

Oh yeah it is a fun ride no question about it, I just picture the wait times in my head haha. Same thing if they ever added Raging Spirits to WDW lol.

I know its a dead concept, but it would at least be a visual standout in that land. I just think that area needs something akin to Excavator or Everest instead of a building taking that spot.
