2017 Pandora AKL
2018 Toy Story Land HS
2019 Star Wars Land HS
2020 Runaway Railway HS
2021 Ratatouille, 50th begins Epcot and cupcakes/merch
2022 TRON, Guardians, HarmoniUs (hopefully not pushed back further, which was my concern)
Yes we had several things get built but thats because they waited so long to build and universal was actually a threat for the first time. HS was a shell that needed a total rebuild, and still seems to need more. Animal Kingdom still seems to need something (prob dinoland area), and Epcot (poor Epcot). This is cause Disney stopped building stuff for a bit. Thats my fear if they pump the brakes too long. 2014 mine train was the last thing MK got. Disney used to not have any competition, they do now. And at the speed disney builds... 2022 could easily become 2024

It was easier when the trees were square. It looked both futuristic and whimsical.

Would EF possibly be reworked with the barges?

Are they still pausing construction once the exterior is completed? I can't read over a 100 pages. Thanks! Happy holidays everybody!
No new insider info that contradicts that previous insider info... yet.

At the very least it should give them an opportunity to have the WDWRR open by 10/1 (hopefully) if they finish the facade. Maybe that date for the WDWRR is a little ambitious for the turtle that is Disney haha. Once track is done they have to staff up and retrain (ha).

You're absolutely right. WDWRR has been closed for too long. They need to do the landscaping outside to be able to do that. Completely forgot about that even existed lol

Of all the times I have been to MK I have never ridden the train and only have done the peoplemover once.

You have explained why in other places but I have to comment on this,
You may be doing it your way but you are doing it wrong,
Slow down, step out of line and move out of your comfort zone, you don't know what you are missing

When I go to Cedar Point I ride the train but only to get to the back of the park. I use it for what it's intended for and thats a mode of transportation.
In Disney parks it’s also an attraction.

At Cedar Point its an attraction too. The second half of it goes through a western town with animatronic skeletons.
The rumor is that Bob Iger said this about the Tron show building: “It’s just a non-descript box just painted to blend into the background or something.”
Bob Chapek had no comment, he was apparently busy in a merchandise brainstorming meeting.

Good. I thought you only saw them as a means of transportation.

No it's more so it's not something I go out of my way to ride. Even Peoplemover I rarely ride as it's boring. For me an attraction has to either be thrilling or entertaining. The train or peoplemover do neither.
There’s nothing like riding the Peoplemover on a warm evening and just relaxing, watching and looking at the sights (ETA: and sounds) around and below.

The fact that the railroad has been closed for over 2 years and now the Peoplemover has been closed for almost 1, is just absurd to me. The Peoplemover is my favorite attraction at MK, and one of my favorites in all of WDW, and it’s been closed during my 2 visits this year. Sad.
On a brighter note, at least you got to visit. More than once too. For better or for worse.

I can’t remember if this has been discussed, but is there anything planned for the train tunnel as far as a show scene?
Based on the concept art, I’m not expecting sets or props, but I could see projections of lightcycles on the side walls as the train passes through being a possibility.
