The indoor E ticket being tucked behing small world and mansion seem to make the most sense to me as well
I wonder how much they considered moving/removing small world to create a path connecting both lands

If one is focused on Ursula, then is it a Little Mermaid ride?
is it weird having Mickey in town square and also on a parade float?

And this appears to be the first trackless All Terrain Ride system, anywhere.

Shadowland is the best I could think of that still gives spooky vibes.

That’s exactly what they shouldn’t do.
Let Universal be the coaster park. That’s kinda becoming their thing.
Wow, a lot to unpack here. I purposely wanted to get caught up reading all the thread replies before typing up my own.
I was watching a stream of the panel and turned it off when Josh got to Fortnite. I assumed that was all that was to be announced for the parks. Boy was I glad to be wrong.
This is definitely the announcement I am the most excited for. Honestly I am very surprised they stuck with this idea.
I am sad to hear that the Rivers of America is going away. I assume the land that’s actually Beyond Big Thunder was deemed too difficult and too expensive to build on. I remember the RCID plan deemed it only “marginally suitable” for expansion.
In terms of this new land, I sincerely hope they go for the more edgier and thrilling route. Magic Kingdom has a bit of a reputation for being a kiddy park—to the point where many of my childless adult friends laugh or roll their eyes when I suggest a visit. I hope the coaster is among the most thrilling on property. Magic Kingdom really needs it.
In any event, I am very excited about this expansion! Credit where credit is due—Disney is actually following through this time.

I know there's a 0.0% chance of them doing this, but tell me these wouldn't fit in VL, especially if there's a wall of wanted posters for the others or something like that.

Disney cannot win.
They build immersive dark rides like ROTR and people complain Universal is doing it better with Velocicoaster.
Disney plans on building a big Villains coaster and people complain too many coasters are now being built.
Disney sneezes and this board says they should have coughed.

You know what's funny?
Ehh..not many are complaining about this specifically.

Out of everything accounted at d23 the only thing that was a coaster was a monster inc coaster.
Animal kingdom is basically 1 boat/dark ride ? , Indiana jones will be similar to dinosaurs ride system and the carousel.
Magic kingdom is cars, which appears to be be test track that is trackless ? , a kids appropriate ride (which I’m guessing won’t be a coaster), and whatever ends up in villains land will probably be one e ticket coaster and my best guess the 2nd attraction will be a boat/dark ride.
That being said, it d23 was any indication where Disney is heading with ride choice it’s still very much heavy on other experiences rather than coasters.

I suggested Shadowland back in December of 2023 but we will see what they go with.
I also wonder if the story is that we visit the villains’ separate homes that are somehow together (like we’d see in Fantasyland) or if it will be a bunch of villains visiting each other at someone’s home (perhaps Maleficent’s).

I mean, that's true of almost everything. Different people have different tastes.
It's not like it's the same people complaining about those things.

It’s a cool name, but doesn’t that directly reference Scar’s domain from Lion King?

It makes me think of that song Nala sings in the broadway version of Lion King. Maybe Land of Shadows or Dark Kingdom would feel less like a Lion King reference?

The social media video called it "Villains at Magic Kingdom."

I took it as a placeholder.

I suspect the entire Villains thing might just be a placeholder....They will probably break the budget with site prep and tearing out the ROA and Tom Sawyer's Island and Villain's Land will become the "Festival Center and Mary Poppins" from the last D23 announcement...but maybe they will build a "Flex Space" where Villain's Land should be.....
