Rumor What is everyone’s confidence level that a Villain’s land will happen?

The people who think a Villains land would be too scary are the same ones who think Alien Encounter should come back lmao
Because guests ignored the multiple written and verbal warnings and then got upset when it was their fault? Imagine how todays entitled society would react
Except there used to be a healthy balance.

I cannot imagine that anything in a villains land would be remotely as scary as ExtraTERRORestrial Encounter. That also had the issue that you were literally restrained during the attraction unable to leave.
It would be easy to build something more on par with a year round “not so scary party” level of experience.

It's also one attraction vs an entire land in the castle park.
Regardless of how scary it is or isn't, I still think Villains isn't an adequate theme for a land. I hope they've come up with something bigger.

I think it will be announced in a Blue Sky sense (if at all). Either at MK or HS.

Very low. They didn’t even add Facilier to Tiana’s because he was considered “problematic”. Changes are coming to the Haunted Mansion soon to tone it down. I doubt they’ll have the guts to create an entire land based around witches, skulls, and spooky scenery.
That art in the Blue Sky concept was probably put in by the artist to generate hype from fans. BBT will probably end up being a new Coco/Frontierland area and a clone of either Cars Land or Zootopia…some senseless IP based land that doesn’t fit with the rest of MK.

I was of the impression that Facilier isn’t in TBA because the ride takes place after the movie in which he was dragged into the underworld. And HM is just losing the hanging gag out of respect to guests that have lost a loved one to a similar fashion which isn’t such a bad thing. As far as witches, skulls, and spooky situations I don’t think that was ever going to be what Villain’s Land was meant to be.

I mean I’m referring to the Maleficent castle and Chernabog/Bald Mountain that was present in the blue sky concept art. I imagine it would stick to the realms of several villains or be themed to a haunted village of sorts.
I feel like the possibility of modern Disney installing a character that’s literally meant to be the Devil overlooking the land would be very low.

Personal opinion... NMBC, while an exceptionally hot property, is more "Halloween" than "Villians". I love the idea of more incorporation of NMBC (and Hocus Pucus for that matter) but only during the Halloween time period (or as Disney calls is, June through November)... NMBC in February (to me) would feel odd (regardless of how good an attraction it is).

It's like "The Good Place" Season 1 concept, but for real!

Well, I think NMBC may allow for more draw too than just villains alone, no matter how big it would already be just villains. I still don’t think they should limit themselves to animated villains still. Davy jones would make a good home in this hypothetical shadowy villains land.

This land never sounds like a good idea to me. What would they do that would look good in daylight?
A Lovely Midafternoon at Bald Mountain kind of takes the eerieness away.

Wasn’t the rumor that it might be indoors?
