I wonder if the 2 major attractions indicate 2 e-tickets, and maybe a minor flat ride attraction throw into the mix ?
In my head I’m thinking ursula tentacle spinner would be a natural fit.

Gosh, I hope your info is wrong, because that’s tiny! I mean, that would make the entire Cars area only one acre larger than Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and the “massive” villains land barely more than half the size of Galaxy’s Edge! And here I was thinking Villains would be larger than GE!
I don’t have real information. Just hearsay and rumors but I have heard these numbers mentioned by a few people. I thought SWL was 12 acres. I think Cars in California is 12 acres as well.

Size isn’t everything, anyway. TSL is big but uses its space about as efficiently as an Apple Store.
Star Wars is 14 acres, TSL is 11.
We were told the expansion would be equivalent to SWL.
ROA and all the undeveloped land behind it within the RR tracks happens to be 14 acres.

Yeah, if I'm making guesses/assumptions, Villains will be close to TSL (11ish or so) and Cars will be closer to like 3 acres.
Thanks.
Expansion would be equivalent to Starwars? Are you referring to Villains, Cars, or both?

Which coincidentally was announced 15 years ago yesterday.

The concept art shows the Cars Mini-Land extending to across the BTMR, so it should cover about 6 acres as such....

I don’t see Cars extending that far up in the art. Seems to end just past the teal awnings from Haunted Mansion. I think it’s going to be around 4.5/5 acres
I also think Villains will have show buildings outside of the berm. Will be big!

Wow, so that would make Villains only about 8? I think that might be a mistake personally, I'd pack stuff in that area (large walkways, shops, lots of rides, shows, M&G, etc.).

No disrespect to the Ursula spinner ride, but I hope they don't go the tacky/carnival route with their attractions. That idea was floated for the Paradise Pier revamp and it worked in that context, but the Villains IP deserves something better.
Honestly I think 8-10 is fine. A lot of starwars and radiator springs is rock work. Also a lot of starwars land is walking paths with space for a third attraction that never came

I’m not attached to an Ursula spinner ride in any way but Disney Parks should offer something for everyone - flat rides are enjoyed by guests.

I think you could get away with it if you did an indoor version. Like, enter the sea witch's lair with the spinner (and some leaping water features) and you'd be fine. Bonus points if she looks like she's carved from driftwood or salvaged ship materials or something. It just shouldn't be out in the open or else it'll spoil the vibe, assuming the concept art captures what they're going for.
