Do you have a favorite announcement from the event?
Definitely villains land!
Whichever one gets built, except for the ruination of Frontierland
@ThemeParkStop I’m looking forward to villains land in Orlando
@@jocelynsantiago7154same 😊
Coco ride 💛
Disney should have designed an elephant graveyard land to serve as a transition between Big Thunder and the rest of Villains Land. The elephant graveyard could just have a restaurant and gift shop to sell merch from the new Paris Lion King ride. Keep the river and build Cars land in Hollywood Studios.
Rumor from sources at WDWNT is that Monsters Inc land will take over Launch Bay and the animation building. They will have to demolish a lot of the backstage to build out a full land, but it seems Muppets are safe.
Let's hope and pray that they do that 🙏
Oh god pls protect the Muppets
Goodness the muppets attraction really sucks. I don’t mind getting it out
They've been very Vauge about it. Supposedly there was artwork that definitively placed it there but now reports are coming in over by the Courtyard. They've even started telling staff to move their stuff out of the building
Wrap and other insiders are saying it is replacing muppets but not star tours.
It's hard to get excited for Disney announcements, when the past 5 years has been a streak of disappointing results. I'm surprised people are still falling for the hype, especially after they announced they are destroying half of MK
Magic Kingdom is terrible anyways so I couldn’t care less about them demolishing it, but I agree with your point, it’s hard to get excited for Disney projects nowadays
The carousel is so funny to me, they can’t even build a carousel without ip.
Even universal could make constellation carousel.
Someone made a really good point that at the rate of their construction, better get used to seeing walls for the next 5 to 10 years next time you visit a park.
There's never a time where there aren't construction walls in Disney World
Their rate the last couple years has been much quicker. People seem to forget how much Covid changed things for a few of the projects. Other than stuff built
Over the Covid time period, things have been going up rapidly. Look at the additions in the parks across the ocean
That’s a joke! Look how much Epic Universal has done? And that WAS during Covid. They literally built a whole park, not just a ride, or a land.
The most exciting announcement for me was *Villainsland*, but that was also the most blue-sky-adjacent one... So we know we're not getting anythinggg near what the cool concept art/mood board shows, and also it's kinda disappointing this whole new land only has 2 rides...
We shall wait and see in 2030 😅
How do you know what they have designed? What a major coaster and another e ticket isn't enough in a land?
Yeah, how do fantasy land have 45 rides in Disneyland and now all their new lands have like 1 ride and its a spinner...
And given how majorly scaled back Disney's blue-sky announcements tend to become, I'm not holding my breath on it to wow me the way Dark Universe has.
I mean, just look at how the E-ticket Avengers ride was planned with a revolutionary new ride system just for the idea to eventually become one kuka arm flatride and the other an iteration of the same Amazing Spider-Man ride system we've seen before?
There will be no Villains land.
Really wish Animal kingdom would ADD new rides. Not replace. Really need more capacity in that park.
I agree 🙌
definitely needs another big thrill ride like everest
Encanto is a new attraction. 🤔
All this news and still excited for Epic Universe more
@JimmytheGOAT314 this I will agree with.
If some insider would claim that the Lion King land and Carsland Orlando would be Blue Sky, I would totally believe it.
Some of these announcements have obviously not been quite ready to be announced.
Gatorland in Lake Mary, FL has an attraction where you can pet an actual capybara! Those creatures in real life just look like giant furry gerbils.
See. I spoke the truths!!!! BRB going to Lake Mary……..for no reason at all.
I really hope they do a Chernabog ride. I wish they would stop only building one-two rides per land, and do at least 3-4 so that there is more to do, because my bet it’s going to be Maleficent and Ursula attractions (or maybe Hades, idk) and I just want something for my favorite underrated guy
Agreed! Disney needs to take notes from Epic Universe and do at the minimum 2 rides + a show or even better 3+ rides
I agree that Chernabog does need representation. Personally I know absolutely nothing about the character
@@princessravendiamond4288he's based on the old Slavic dark god Chernobog, so there's plenty of fun stuff to do with that if Imagineering aren't too restricted.
I think the best land Disney has done is Cars land. Even if you don’t like the movies it’s the closest to the immersion of Harry Potter lands. I wish we got it in Hollywood studios instead of magic kingdom.
Animal kingdom and Hollywood studios barely have any rides while MK has a ton they just need to fix them.
Star Wars and Toy Story are good at immersion too…
You're not getting a Cars land, ever. Disney will be losing Pixar under antitrust.
@@stanfordite1 Huh? Disney has outright owned PIxar for a while now. Your comment makes no sense
@@camhesse1 Pixar, Lucasfilm, Marvel, ABC, ESPN, the Muppets, etc. are all going to be taken away from Disney when the government breaks it up like Standard Oil. Pixar will be an independent studio again. And the Rivers of America is not closing. All Pixar attractions will close so Disney won't have to pay licensing.
@@stanfordite1 lol sure.
The universal effect, without that none of this would have happened 😂
without disney having a stranglehold in orlando epic universe never gets made either…same with the wizarding world lands..
Almost like it’s a good thing for fans to have both parks motivate one another and it’s not some weird competition for fans to be toxic over.
@@cosmicwarrior1857I think some people are failing to recognize just because Universal’s in its honeymoon period right now it might have troubles in the future
So celebrating Disney’s struggles and failures is very short sighted and thoughtless to me
You want both companies performing at a high level
I agree competition is good for fans
OP acting like Disney isn’t still king until EU opens. I can’t wait for EU but Disney has been on top since the beginning. It was the OG major theme park. Without Disney we don’t have Epic. And be happy Disney pushed universal and let’s hope universal pushes Disney so we have a back and forth action to give us the best parks we can get.
None of this is happening and Disney is being broken up.
Hard to get excited these days when Disney promotes a wagyu steak and but delivers spam.
Man, Spam's great! I love Spam. But when I was promised steak...
Spam musubi is addictive though. We don't want all waygu A5, because that will price out most families.
Not a major par goer. But from what I understand the only major example of this was Avengers Campus and that Star Wars hotel that was always a stupid idea.
The monsters inc land was awesome news!! I just hope it’s not replacing muppets and Star Tours! Replace animation courtyard instead!!
What makes you excited about it?
@@-dtuyhnjhggvjjjn hope it does turn out that way
Thre will be no Monsters Inc land or Cars Land. We need less IP and I look forward to Disney losing Pixar after being broken up.
I had a thought I expressed on TikTok and it was well received.
1. Reskin rock in rollercoaster to the electric mayhem
2. Move muppetvision to the cars show area
3. Boom: new muppet courtyard, with a better ride.
4. Can demolish original space
55:11 At the risk of being “That Guy”, the door coaster in the concept art looks to be an inverted coaster like Dueling Dragons (seated with legs dangling), not a suspended coaster (seated enclosed in a gondola) like Big Bad Wolf that was at Busch Gardens Williamsburg.
Disney is just not good at making single ip lands, for every avatar and cars, there’s two avengers campus, galaxy’s edge, and Toy Story lands.
We need more tropical Americas type lands.
Universal quite literally invented single ip lands and they’re soooo much better at building them.
Re: the wood carver convo, y'all should check out Ray Kinman. He's done several of the carved signs and statues at the parks, does private commissions (many Disney-related), and teaches wood carving.
Oh I’m going now! Thank you!
Overpromising and underdelivering is a great way to alienate your customers, and Disney seems hellbent on doing just that. Also, the timelines are so extended that people can't really conceive of when the projects will actually be completed. DL Forward is scoped at 30ish years, which probably means 40+ cuz it's Disney, so I probably won't live long enough to see it completed.
I would love to see Yzma and Professor Ratigan.
The biggest, and very valid, criticism of the D23 vomit announcements is that they are destroying Rivers of America. They are taking “the park” out of MK while EPIC is creating one.
And Disney waited until after to announce the Rivers of America. Cowards.
No they're not.
Honestly, I think treating Disney vs Universal as a “team sport” where you can only like one or the other is just idiotic. If I like any given IP/ride I will always try to hit it up on a trip to Orlando, and if I don’t, no big deal if I don’t get around to it. Both Disney & Universal have strengths, weaknesses, and personalities all their own. Just appreciate what you like about each & try to ignore the problems.
Like I said before, me & my family are just as fired up for Epic Universe as the next guy, but on our upcoming 2025 trip we still plan to add in a couple park-hopper days at Disney for Test Track 3.0, RotR, Guardians, etc. A rising tide lifts all boats.
Imagine if you could ONLY eat at your favorite restaurant
Disney needs to change its anti-consumer policies before I want to go again. Universal doesn't have that problem.
I pretty much agree with everything except when you said “ignore the problems.” Don’t know what the reasoning for that was
@@YouMayKnowMeAsNateagreed disney has shot itself in the foot quite a bit the last handful of years in the parks. They are making things too difficult but he’s got the right idea outside of that.
Trying to "ignore the problems" with Disney is really hard these days when they force them to your attention in every inconvenient way possible.
That Lion King ride should go in the Animal Kingdom.
Zootopia as well.
My favorite announcement is of an announcement that actually comes to fruition. Zero confidence any of this will be built or to the level their showing us.
Anything that has a physical model built, you can 98% trust. It's concept art you have to be wary of.
@@happiestplace3754and even that, as it is with Disney, I wouldn't trust over 40%
Shocking was, absolutely no mention of Disneyland's Tomorrowland!
I hate the idea of them removing Rivers of America just because Universal currently lacks any areas focused on just serenity and natural beauty the same way.
Sounds like Epic Universe will be introducing a lot of garden/park themeing in Celestial right as Disney’s paving it.
How are they supposed to compete if they offer no distinction 😢
Monsters, Inc. land should be built off Sunset Blvd next to RnRC. The entrance would cut through the middle of Sunset Ranch Market. Muppets and Launch Bay should stay, at least for now. Unfortunately, WDI hasn’t been very good with land utilization in their parks, especially in DHS.
"Disney's only doing a villains land because Universal is doing a monsters land."
Yeah? So what? Two cakes!
It’s funny because when I heard they’re gonna do a villains land, I immediately thought of the monsters land in the similarities!
It only took them forever, but I'll be happily eating both if Disney can deliver
Hasn’t disney tried to rezone MK a few times in the last two decades to build a Villains land? I thought I’ve seen some public records that they have wanted to do it for a while.
Come on gang--that Coco boat ride is El Rio Del Tiempo reskinned!
Coco is in california not florida
@@4B1ade We shall see. It is NOwhere so far. My point was that art and the idea for re-theming the EPCOT Mex ride to CoCo is OLD news.
The concept art was from an Epcot reskin, but it's being built in DCA.
@@4B1ade I mean there's nothing really stopping them from cloning El Rio Del Tiempo in Cali but themed to Coco.
If Epic Universe is looking to put the "park" back in "theme park", Magic Kingdom is looking to take the "theme" and "park" out of...wait a minute 🤔
🤔 something seems to have gone wrong somewhere
@@YouMayKnowMeAsNate Indubitably 🧐
They should put the monster inc land and replace Star Wars launch and little mermaid. No one is ever in that area!
Muppets is popular and liked by a lot.
I don’t understand why they would put it in muppets and not in the Disney junior section.
Muppets is definitely not as popular…
Cars should have replaced the Tomorrowland Speedway with a fully indoor futuristic Grand Prix track 😭
Walt isnt going to be an animatronic. They just figured out how to defrost him.
I think Disney knows they can’t compete with Epic Universe opening in 2025, that’s why all WDW gets next year is reimagined Test Track, some new lounges, and a few other smaller things like the night time parade. After one year of Epic being open then Disney will stagger all the new lands/attractions one per year for 2026, 2027, 2028, etc.
The big issue with that is universal will also be planning opening new lands and attractions the following years. Talks of Pokémon, Zelda, monsters of black lagoon. The difference is universal has shown they are able to add something new every year
@@dukeofgames WDW have added something new every year for at least the last ten years so idk what you’re talking about.
i will be devastated if they get rid of muppets...
Tree of Life gets a glow up.
Hopefully with all the same Zootopia animatronics from Shanghai.
I think the creepy thing about Walt but not Abe is that Lincoln had no concept of this animatronics, obviously, but Walt pioneered the tech. I feel like if he had ANY ambition to be represented in that form he would have expressed it in his lifetime. Also if its anything like the cgi Walt at the Franklin Institute, they made him too weirdly perky!
Cars land should have come to Hollywood studios not magic kingdom
First with 3 new area being built in Florida (not counting replacing dino land) I feel they should have just announced a new park to compete with Epic Universe
Second now only is Villians land a clear response to Dark Universe but it is also basically going to be a Decendents land (Ille of the lost or whatever it's called in those movies)
Oh Disney, they've lost my attention completely. So many broken promises over decades. Show 👏me👏the MODEL👏👏 The lack of dates is also so noncommital. I love the Muppets, but let us acknowledge we love the last thing Jim Henson worked on, he was initially excited to work with Disney but I do not think Disney cares for the Muppets in it's arsenal of studio properties. I miss the days of Muppet Christmas Carol and Treasure Island (the best treasure island and I'll fight anyone over it, CABIN FEVER) and wish Disney would let them make Public Domain Novel Muppet movies. They need a movie to get Disney's attention to get a Muppet expansion, but that is a big dream. And the Muppets are really thanks to the lovers, the dreamers, and you. Let them know, silly creatures. Oh! 🥹 Give me Fraggle Rock in there too. Kids/Adult Dance party area.
I can't wait for the Splash Mountain Lion King re-theme to be the love song boat ride from Lion King 2.
@28:20 immediately thought of those holotiles - that would be very cool even though its likely not
I really hope w/ the new south American section we get real animals too! We need a trail w/ jaguars, monkeys & capybaras!
I just listened to a podcast interview with Josh on the WDW Radio podcast and it seems like the Villains Land is further along than we think. He seemed genuinely excited about what they’re going to do and what they have planned. My guess is they want to save some announcements and details for next year’s destination d23.
Anything without dates is still blue sky, they just know they can’t label them that anymore
Hence Villains land is still just Blue Sky.
Honestly there is going to be so much gate keeping going on but I am not really mad about any of it. If I could rely on Disney to keep their word I would say villains is my favorite but just purely out of trying to not have my dreams crushed I cannot wait for monsters. My son loves cars so they better do them justice! Although he may be cars-ed out by the time it’s finished lol.
Having a Monsters Inc Ride (that doesn't take out Muppets) & Villains land are the things that would make me interested in going to Disney.
It’s going to take forever for any of these main attractions to come to fruition.
I think the Tomorrowland redo hadn’t been announced yet because they don’t have enough ip to fill the land. I don’t think anything original without ip is even in the works, it’s all got to have ip with the current management.
I know Disneys new MO is throw IPs in everything, but I feel like tomorrow land doesn’t need that to expands since its whole schtick is “ideas of tomorrow.” You don’t need IPs to fill that out.
The thorny roller coaster in Villains Landbalmost looks to have pretty boxy track, almost like a wooden coaster diving through the thorns. It would be nice to have a classic styled woodie in Disney World, but I also doubt it would hold up well in the Florida heat with year round opetltations.
I mean, there's absolutely no way they'd put an RMC I-box coaster in the middle of Magic Kingdom. They simply would never cook up the biggest, baddest, most intense ride experience in Florida and use it to flagship their new land.
I mean, such a ride would have to directly compete with both of its neighbors, Iron Gwazi and Velocicoaster, two of the best rides to ever exist, meaning it would need to be a top 10 coaster to even be in the same consversation as them.
The Monsters Inc. land has me curious, but no one is saying two places that could be used.
1. Beauty and the Beast Theater. Yes, it'll look ugly seeing a five-to-six-story building in front of the entrance and blocking the view of the Tower of Terror. There is a decent amount of space there, if not for monsters, but for another attraction.
2. Backlot Expres, Indy sung show, back stage, and parking lot. If you expand the park by a few spaces you have a massive amount of room similar size of Toystory. This could be why we see the water tower from Rizzo’s in the background. The question comes, will they touch Star Tours? I hope not, but I wouldn't be surprised.
I've got an idea for a mythical creature in the Indy temple - Carnotaurus
Disney's constant need to expand MK over the other parks really astounds me. They really want you to spend a week at WDW,, but spend the entire week at MK at this rate.
DHS should also get an Incredibles land. Maybe next cycle?
That’s my guess for Rock n Rollercoaster retheme!
I love encanto but I think it should have been a zootopia land. Animals are timeless it’s a concept that future generations will know even without seeing the movies. I don’t know how timeless will encanto be.
I know animals are timeless, BUT I know a lot of people who haven’t seen Zootopia, but I don’t know anyone who hasn’t seen Encanto.
@@DannyLorenzo-w1c I agree but what about in 15 years. Will new generations know encanto?
@@solcarlosofficial Yes. Moana is 8 years old and is the number 1 streaming movie of any streaming platform. Number 2 is Encanto. After nearly 3 years. Zootopia is older than both and doesn’t crack top 10. This is coming from someone who absolutely LOVES Zootopia but Disney’s best animal IP is still Lion King 30 years later.
Also it's called Animal Kingdom. Completely agree. ALSO. Zootopia made like a billion dollars. Encanto did not, lmao
@@il100374 Yes but Encanto came out during a pandemic and made an immediate impact on Disney + and streaming. You’re comparing apples and oranges. Also I’m pretty sure the idea of Tropical Americas and the encanto theming in this new area is to have animal exhibits from south and Central America. Also I’m pretty sure the ride is going to heavily feature elements from Antonio’s Room which is a rainforest themed room full of animals.
I would love to see a combo area of Monsters Inc and the Muppets I really hope they leave Muppet vision 3D alone and maybe spruce it up
1-epic universe
2-epic univese
3- EPIC UNIVERSE
1. Villains Land
2. Tropical Americas
3. Coco at DCA
I'm very excited about everything that is happening at WDW and is very much needed. I hope that there are no budget cuts and that everything goes as planned without any unexpected crises. I think they should consider removing AC, Echo Lake, Indy, and Star Tours, but I definitely want to keep the Muppets.
I hate to see Tom Sawyer Island get filled in, the Liberty Belle riverboat adds so much charm to Disney world and holds some of my fondest moments from the park as a kid, worst decision Disney has ever made imo.
I totally feel the "I don't care" about the Cars stuff. Never cared for the franchise so it's disappointing to see a land dedicated to it in Magic Kingdom.
I also hope Muppets stays.
My Top 3 by excitement!
1) Villains Land
2) Avatar at DCA
3) Monstropolis
HM:
4) Coco Boat Ride
5) Walt Animatronic
6) Avengers E-Ticket
7) Mando to MF:SR
Looking at the villains concept art, there's the rollercoaster on the far left, and on the far right theres a building that's vaguely Haunted Mansion looking.
Big Thunder is supposed to get a full refurb around the time they do all of this. I'm starting to think they're going to retheme BTM and make it part of Villains and no longer part of Frontierland, and same for HM from Liberty Square. Knowing how cheap they keep being, they might not even add a new ride, just dining and merchandise between the two rides.
They'll then retheme Frontierland and possibly Liberty Square into A New Orleans Square/French Quarter themed land which includes Tiana, Country Bears, and Hall of Presidents.
Cars will just fall in the middle as a random mini land.
Ian needs one of the following:
A. Eat a Snickers
B. An SSRI
C. A hug
I hear enough complaining from my 6 and 12 year old boys. But it’s funny how when it comes to Universal, they are excited to tell you the exact size of the bolts being used on the Donkey Kong coaster track, but when it comes to Disney, they sort of maybe know a little bit about the news and rumors, but they don’t really care. Definitely my go-to source for all things Universal, but definitely gonna skip their Disney stuff from now on.
Damn, that Stark ride is definitely using the ride system the Avengers ride was suppose to have
That's why I'm not excited for it at all. The original concept pitched an innovative ride system, but now we're getting a flat ride that takes up so much space and an e-ticket attraction using a ride system that's been done before. I was really hoping they would flex their muscles with this Avengers ride...
The Encanto ride will be the same technology as Mystic Manor in Hong Kong Disneyland.
I still think they could keep Little Mermaid while making Animation Courtyard into Monstropolis. Move the entrance to the theater over by Walt Disney Presents, then put monster facades on the side of the building. Once they demolish Disney Junior and Launch Bay it opens up that space to be big enough for a full land. Especially if they move the footprint back into the small parking lot and the old animation building. Nothing says the show building for the coaster has to be on the same plot as launch bay. It's plenty of space if they move those walls back.
I am so with you on the Tomorrowlands. I think they are trying to get other areas in order before they shut down such a big area.
13:28 I believe you are absolutely, 💯 without a shadow of a doubt correct that this attraction is using the tech from the original Quinn Jet attraction concept. Exactly how you’re describing it. I refuse to believe otherwise.
I'm honestly not bothered by the rivers of america going away, mainly because Disneyland likely will never get rid of theirs since they commited to keeping it when they built Galaxys Edge, and it was something Walt wouldn't haven't have wanted to go.
With the magic Kingdom i dont feel like things are as sacred since it wasnt Walts park. It's sad to see an OG attraction go, but on the bright side the cars attractions will be people eaters and provide much better crowd flow when its busy. It's almost always a good thing to expand pathways in the Magic Kingdom style parks with how packed they get.
Why does DL get to keep the beautiful attractions and it’s “ok” to dump on MK?
MK fans and east coast people would like to keep the “park” portion of theme park too!
@@Thazo79 I explained why. The only thing that's sacred is Walt's original park, otherwise everything is going to evolve with the times. It does suck that you're losing the rivers down there, but from an operations perspective it'll do wonders.
Sorry but you’re wrong here. The whole point of Disney World is that the parks could expand without the removal of beautiful and still relevant attractions and it offered the same park that was on the west vista for those on the East Coast. That was the whole reason Walt chose that area besides the building of his modern prototype city.
But to be honest, if they take out rivers of America, then Disney deserves to be cursed. Let them be cursed unto ages upon ages.
@@Thazo79 agree to disagree I guess. I'm not excited about the change, but I'm not going to get outraged over it either. The only reason I care about Disneyland rides specifically getting torn down is because of the historical preservation aspect, and because I think that the original attractions are the ones that should stay generally. If a ride originated on the east coast, then got built on the west coast, I don't care as much about the west coast version.
But we are not talking about a ride though are we? We are talking about whole themed areas that was part of the concept of Disney Land and World. It is Walt’s vision to have these particular lands and the river. If we fundamentally change these lands, then we might as well take Disney’s name off of it because it’s no longer his vision. Maybe “Iger World Amusement center” makes more sense.
Disney World is the last park that Walt personally worked on the planning of before his death. That is pretty significant. I say that both of these MK kingdom parks are equally important.
If Disney corp wants to experiment with new ideas, then that is what the other gates are for.
I wasn’t expecting a new nighttime parade for MK and feel it deserves more hype! So pumped! #JusticeforSpectroMagic
I would like to see an Oogie Boogie eatery or something. Given how WDW doesn’t really have Nightmare Before Christmas representation
Looking at the concept art, zooptia show has drones???
I just want a Cruella trackless car chase ride
I’m okay with this
Well, as someone who lives in
Shanghai, I would love to have the villains, Coco and Avatar. Me and my friends hate the upcoming spiderman roller coaster because it's stuck in the middle of dwarfs, pirates and Zootopia, which makes it really weird. I mean, any other concept that has natural views would do for me because it blends into the background, but not New York City. And what's frustrating is that this shows Shanghai is just keen on building things that attracts people to make money instead of bringing stuffs that really add to the park.
The announcement just came down today from Busch Gardens Tampa, the last day to ride The Scorpion roller coaster will be September 2nd. Not a rumor it is confirmed, love the channel keep up the good work.
See while Muppets is in perfect working order right now… Little mermaid is returning from its refurbishment into a new show and Disney just showed off some of the new costumes! Both attractions that Monsters inc could replace will be in good condition after recent refurbishment and that makes the choice between Muppets and little mermaid impossible.
Oof, how do you feel about rivers of America?
26:47 artifact is the word lol
For your wish of Coco it was far along as a phase 1 and the location was on a section of land West of Big Thunder Railroad. If in the future it can be purposed for it, however it will be a completely different attraction and not the boat one coming to DCA in order to tend you to visit both coasts for different experiences.
I remember saying back the year they announced the Moana ride for dinoland right before d23 I said, “so we’re all expecting an Indiana jones ride for dinosaur right?”
It’d be awesome if the Walt Disney animatronic show was like turtle talk with crush
"Nothing is blue sky"
Villains land - DEFINITELY BLUE SKY lmao
- congrats so you're moving dirt for utilities...
No date means “blue sky”
I would take a Muppets move and rebuild in the Racing Academy building and then re-theme Rockin' Roller Coaster to Electric Mayhem. Make that who area the new Muppet courtyard.
9:34 Flatearthers of Florida be "at"ing Alicia like.......
> I'm with you on the Avatar land. I love that it's not a completely same land like Star Wars was.
> I am stoked for Villains, but I really just think Villains land should be a new park (Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, I know, I know about infrastructure and Disney can't manage 4 parks, I just think Villains should be a park, not a land). I really hope it's a villains mirrored version of Fantasyland, but then again, the villains that make the most sense would be the ones we see constantly used, especially during Halloween time, so I don't see some of the lesser villains being utilized and not even many of the newer ones. Chernabog, Malificent, Ursula, Evil Queen, Queen of Hearts, Cruella, Jafar, and even Hades stand out to me, with the lesser chance of seeing representation for Dr. Facilier, Scar, Gaston (at least in ride form), or Yzma, let alone anyone else not mentioned.
> I'm absolutely excited about removable kuka arm ride and really wish I could be on the team to learn how that's going to function safely and repeatably so it's not Tiana as a superhero ride.
> I'm more curious than excited about Tropical Americas. I'm sad to see Dinosaur go, but knowing a lot about mythology, I am curious to see if the mythical beast is more Kulkukan (the feathered serpent), or the Jaguar god of the dead type of direction they go. It would be great to overlap the real south american exhibits with this Disney storytelling into the ride itself, but I doubt that will happen, too. It's still Nahtazu.... it's ZOOtopia, not Zutopia....
> Cars I'm saddened by but excited by. I feel sad we're confirming the loss of literacy in Florida (and loss of water), but the idea of it being kindof a 4-wheeling ride could mean it's a more exciting version of Radiator Racers.
> Definitely STOKED for the doors coaster finally. It's well overdue! but that's it's downfall: it's overdue, and since we live in a generation of "new, now, next" cancellations I don't see the longevity of basically most of the announcements overall. I hope I'm wrong on that point!
I think the Walt animatronic is great, I'm just sure that what is *actually* happening is they are unfreezing his corpse and then inserting wires and gears and making a FNAF attraction at Disneyland. (runs away from the claws and daggers at this dark joke).
Definitely on board with the Disney is Universal.... but Universal has become Disney (or might be). Probably because all the Imagineers are part of Creative (or retired) and all the Creative is now Imagineers (or retired). meanwhile, this guy just sits here feeling lost at ever getting my career going in my lifetime. Sigh...
For the Walt Disney animatronic, it seems like it’s one of two possible reasons why they’re really doing it. They’re either doing it from a place of genuine respect and want to immortalize Walt in his original park, OR they’re compensating for all the classic attractions they’re erasing.

Can yourselves as Florida residents please start initial discussions with the division of historical resources to preserve the Muppets courtyard as a historic place.
Unsure how the new oversight board works but feel it should be discussed at the next meeting.
Many thanks
Can you imagine if they went through with the quinjet and the seats split apart and split kids from their families? That could be a little traumatic (especially with it "blowing apart"). Sure there probably would be a height requirement but little kids can ride some pretty big rides at Disney. I think that would be kind of an operational nightmare depending on if cast members explained the seating or had to organize how people sat (keeping kids by parents).
That doesnt even sound fun. The terror of thinking the ride system was failing would be traumatic. I think a Jurrassic World clear ball is kind of the final frontier for ride systems. I really would like something like Mario Kart but without the headgear. The more i wait without notification of opening date the more im less hyped. To be honest the only ride i care about is the Ministry of Magic ride and the Dark Universe ride which is likely just going to be alien encounter crossed with mickey runaway railway. Maybe im spoiled by coaster experience at homeparks is riding like a dozen rides in a day. I am not looking forward to a virtual queued-out 4 ride day.
Muppet courtyard or whatever its called is Hollywood studios best looking area imo. Along with Muppet Vision being best 3D show at any park anywhere
and sunset boulevard is cool
I want to thank Disney. Every time I think they can’t disappoint me more, they discover new methods.😞
Entitlement at its finest...yeah it's best you stay away if you got nothing from this year's D23

@@zarajenkins6948ooh, gatekeeping for Disney. How brave of you.
@@zarajenkins6948 Stay away from Disney parks, you're not welcome. P urists only. When I take over Disney and make it great again, the parks will be stuck in the twentieth century where they belong.

Alicia, I think the Animation Courtyard concept art is just nebulous because they don't know where they want it to go yet. The courtyard in the art is way bigger than Animation Courtyard. It looks way more the size and shape of Echo Lake. You know Iger wants to dump more shows after the actors all got raises, so it's a definite possibility. But I'm with you on RnRC. Mostly because the physical model looks like it was made to fit into the RnRC ride building. The back part, after the launch. It's not large AT ALL. It's not really a coaster. More like a fast dark ride. And I think putting it over here would be cheaper than the Animation Courtyard version. They would need to get rid of the launch portion, the queue can turn into Harryhausen's. They could even move the Laugh Floor into the Lightning McQueen garbage thing.
Notice how all the most expensive things have no start dates? There is NO way they will be building 3 new rides and the very expensive Avatar land all at the same time. It's Coco and Avengers - opening 2028 and 2029 AT THE EARLIEST - and then the Kuka Krap Ride.... and then Avatar MAYBE in the 2030s. And THAT will be in Phases. As will Villains Land. Josh D'Amaro is still full of crap.
Magic kingdom doesn’t need new rides it needs to fix and refurbish the one it already has!
Build new rides for the parks that barely have rides like animal kingdom
HS could use a few more
The dude is killing me. Especially in contrast to Alicia, who is so polished, informed, and professional.
I know right? Maybe check out Alicia’s other show. ParkTalk. Different cohost. Have an amazing day.
Love starting my day with these videos
NBC is BOTH Halloween and Christmas. It’s my favorite. 😊
Earth is always moving around the sun so Disney wasn’t lying 😂
from tommorowland to D'maroland
I agree with all your perspectives and analysis across your platform. Except one major thing. I’ve been on Tianas and it’s a huge turd. Keep up the good work. The best theme park RUclipsr!
Opinions are subjective I guess
Sounds like you didn’t like the change, you weren’t going to be happy anyway
@@jaywilliams8608 What is your basis for that? I didn’t say one thing about why I feel that way. You just projected and made up your own assumption. Ignorant.

Lands and rides are cool, but I miss the personal interactions with performers and staff on the street that make the whole experience more enjoyable. The last few times I've gone to Disney, it just felt like I went to wait in line for an hour for 5 minutes of fun at a time. Give me more emersion; environmental AND social.
Three things: Monster Coaster, Spiderman Tower, Spiderman Coaster
