I have to admit, it'd be pretty awesome to see the eye of sauron projection in the middle of the night, shining in the sky above mordor.
It might even make me want to watch one of them....

You a big fan of the books or just not really a movie person?
They’ve never appealed to me. There again neither did Potter until I watched the first one just so I’d know what Forbidden Journey was about in 2010.
The area I drew on the map above is about .8 acres. That's as big as Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe (including it's kitchen).

Fair enough. I will say though that out of any high fantasy film series you could try, Lord of the Rings is at the top of the list.

They're great movies. I'd love a land dedicated to it.
It will be a curved box as opposed to a box box.

Well, that’s... something, I guess.

Will it be decent looking from the outside, will it be "curved warehouse connected to regular warehouse", or will it be hidden enough that we won't have to see it?

Do you think the lack of any confirmation of the Black Panther rumors for Wonders of Life in the midst of this "Marvel Land is going worldwide" thing they did with the DCA announcement means it's not what's going in there?
Like even if the contract means they can't officially bill it as Marvel Land or use the Avengers iconography, I would think they'd weasel around it by saying something like "This whole corner of Future World is becoming a world of superheroes with Black Panther joining Guardians of the Galaxy".

The fact that today’s announcement didn’t include WDW at all is interesting, given the Guardians coaster is in progress.
I’m assuming that 1. Disney is focused on full Marvel lands, vs the one ride at WDW 2. It is currently a tenuous time for Disney and Comcast, so while it was unlikely before that Dis would try to challenge the contract before, now it could be disastrous. And 3. I still think the WoL activity is more about rearranging locations for spine work than an attraction at this point.
There is not one insider, not one, who is saying that Black Panther or Wakanda is being considered. All those internet clickbait trolls and vloggers are doing are passing around a fantasy about what WDW *might* do *if* they can get around the contract from Jim Hill, a notorious fantabulist about what Disney *might* do based on presumptions. But not one is saying that it's actually happening according to their sources.
Occam's Razor: Neither Black Panther nor Wakanda is coming to WDW unless a *reliable* insider gives it credence. Full stop.
And second, the idea of a Wakanda without mentioning Black Panther is beyond absurd.

There is a precedent for DIsney using weasel words to get around contract stipulations in regards to restrictions put on Marvel branding even in California. I mean, that's what the whole "Summer of Heroes" thing got its name from: An inability to use the Marvel name for the promotion.

I don’t think they were ever considering Black Panther for Wonders of Life.
