With Tony in charge, that fifth gate would be one heck of a park.
It would also cost more than the GDP of Tanzania.

What kind of attention are you taking about?Tony Baxter attraction for Magic kingdom
The above all sounds good.
Are there any rumors on what kind of Tony Baxter Attraction. Other than behind the new fantasyland, where else is there room for another large attraction or would it be replacing something else?
I don't really care about the visual splendor because I really have no desire to see a land based on Avatar. Therefore, it would be awful for me if it got built (which, thankfully, is looking more unlikely at this point ).
Now, if it does get built and you enjoy it, you would probably be happy about it, and you would definitely be commenting on these boards to that effect. I am doing just that, but for the opposite reason.
Ahem...
Just going off what we know on these boards.
Lastly,
What is there to be proved right or wrong? I'm not trying to dodge the fact that I would prefer stagnation to Pandora - quite the contrary, in fact. Why does my unfavorable opinion of Pandora get more credibility if I append it with a preference for BK or MI? Neither concept has been seriously considered for DAK since the recession began. I've never explicitly stated what expansion I would prefer to see, but that is a rhetorical choice on my part to imply that I would prefer just about anything to Avatar. (For the record, I would love to get BK, MI, or some other additions/improvements to the existing lands if that makes you feel better.) A lot of old-school 80's EPCOT Center fans lament some of the changes that took place in Future World starting in the 90's. I'm not necessarily agreeing with them, but I want to draw an analogy to a common argument that some of those changes really damaged the theme and cohesiveness of Future World. Well, I think Pandora would do just that to DAK (on top of being just bad IP overall). Therefore, I think that DAK would be better off with nothing than Pandora.
This post sums up feelings pretty neatly:
but Tony Baxter is known for doing very large attractions.... is there really enough room for a large attraction there? I'm not being sarcastic, I just didn't the the space there was big enough.Tomorrowland by where the old tomorroland theater was for one.
I've seen rumors around the internet that Tony Baxter might be working on projects related to either an Oz ride or something based on the Lone Ranger for Disneyland. Either of those accurate (and possible for Magic Kingdom)?
Yes. Plenty of space back their ... the old theater had plenty of room. I am very familiar with Tonys work. It just depends on whether Phil wants to give up his parking space now. Check it out on Google Maps.but Tony Baxter is known for doing very large attractions.... is there really enough room for a large attraction there?

That person sounds more teenybopper like than arrogant to me. If they only knew the scope of 74's business knowledge they would be listening rather than ranting.Do you realise how arrogant you are now? Who of us here really knows what WDW1974's deal is? I find him to be quite a mystery, but he obviously has a number of sources for the business side of TWDC, not WDI, so why is it so unbelievable that he should have some business knowledge? And as long as you aren't certain that he is just a sad guy called Frank, dreaming of Disney and sitting in his basement somewhere in New Mexico, how do you know that he isn't someone whom Disney very much should want to keep as a customer?
Want to bet? You couldn't convince me to go anywhere near Pandora if it were ever built. (Maybe if you paid me...a lot)
I do not like the IP to begin with, so "the potential to pretty darn good" is lost on me. But I don't begrudge your enjoyment of a potential Pandora land. Look at it this way - that's one less person to wait behind in line for the Super Pandora E-Ticket, right? That should make you and others who like Pandora happy!
You guys would be in line right next to me if it was triple a, we all talk trash but if it was getting rave reviews you know you'd have to check it out. I won't second guess Cameron when it comes to a project of any kind, I may not like it but at least it's interesting. It's kinda like a car wreck you have to look at least onceI second all of this, your viewpoint is pretty much a mirror image of mine.
THere were rumors of something about Tom Sawyer Island if my memory is correct. Or, Spirit mentioned an area behind Main Street (probably near Tomorrowland)but Tony Baxter is known for doing very large attractions.... is there really enough room for a large attraction there? I'm not being sarcastic, I just didn't the the space there was big enough.
