- Disneyland Forward has been approved to be built. Learn what that means, how it will proceed and what it may look like when the project is completed in the next decade. Join retired Disney Imagineer Jim Shull as he shares the future on this Disney Journey. @jimshull #DisneyUnpacked @JimHillMedia
Jim thanks so much for your expert insight on Disney [specifically Disneyland] future development... learning a lot from you! Looking forward for your next vlog!
Thanks for your comment.
The thing I will always love about Disneyland is there clever use of space. Everything is compact and walkable, just look at how they squeezed in Indiana jones and runaway railway.
Imagineers have called Disneyland a ‘Swiss watch’. Thanks for your comment.
Thank you for joining the content provider era, Jim. Nice to have a perspective of someone who has actually participated in previous projects. Looking forward to the next vlog.
That was very nice Jim !! Thank you !
Simple explanation and easy to understand. Love your calm voice. Can't wait for more content.
Hi Jim! Thx for this video. It's always great to hear your Disney stories.
Hi Jim! Cool to see you have a YT channel now. With all of the wild speculation about what Disneyland Forward will be, it is very refreshing to have someone who actually knows and understands the process weigh in. I look forward to what you will be posting in the future!
Thanks. I plan to follow and comment in future episodes (tell your friends!) about Disneyland Forward and what I’m calling Walt Disney World Forward which is the Beyond Thunder Mountain plans.
Loved this video and hearing your outlook on the forward project
Great video - Disneyland Forward is definitely an ambitious project(s) of a series of shifting tiles. I am curious how the development of the Toy Story Lot will be connected with the rest of the Resort.
Released plans suggest the Toy Story lot will be filled with hotels and entertainment. I’ll be covering this project as it moves forward so keep watching and tell your friends.
It's gonna be a construction mad house in & around the Disneyland resort area for the next few years. 😵💫
Three projects in DCA will result in much construction traffic. Thanks for watching my channel.
Thank you for this video. I am fascinated by the changes over the years to the property and love the “plate of spaghetti” analogy. It applies to projects of all kinds. Great work
Thanks for your comment. If you like my channel tell your friends to like and subscribe.
Great video Jim!
Only place for a new people mover would be to move guests back-and-forth between the massive, eastern parking garage and the esplanade. There >COULD< be Four ways to get back-and-forth from that parking structure:
(a) walk
(b) PM
(c) Skyway [ Guests would also LOVE to see that come back to Disneyland and WDW already uses a large system to do the same thing ]
(d) 'golf cart' vehicle (extra fee)
Thanks for your comment, thanks for watching and tell your friends. I’ll be at D23 covering the event.
Thanks for putting this together...
Jim, you're revealing all the secrets of Mickey's New World Order!...You retired guys...😄
Well, my Non Disclosure Agreement keeps me from spilling the beans completely.
@@jimhshull Meet you at the Big D sometime. I'm going in for lunch with Pro in the near future.
Do the Imagineers still visit Disneyland on a regular basis? When I interned at Burbank it was too far a commute to Disneyland so I imagine WDI isn’t visiting the parks every week either. I’d love to work at WDI but Glendale is just too far from Anaheim to regularly visit the parks. It feels like there’s a disconnect between Imagineering and park ops with the way rides and systems are designed. All the new rides use a trackless vehicle which is a huge liability with the consistent downtime from guests accidentally dropping their hats or cell phones. Even the way Lightning Lane is enforced feels like nobody understood the purpose of FastPass. Traffic isn’t getting any better so I think the solution to understand the guest experience is to relocate WDI to Anaheim so Imagineers can spend more time as guests.
The rule when I worked at Imagineering was that designers who worked on rides and attractions for the parks had to walk the parks on a regular basis. The drive from Glendale to Anaheim is around an hour so that’s not much of a problem. And there is a small group of WDI folk in Anaheim who send reports up to the main WDI office in Glendale.
Thank you Jim for your great vlogs. Did you work for Disney during the Eisner era? I am fond of his work and what he accomplished. Thanks
I for sure worked as a Imagineer during the Eisner era, joining the Disney Company in 1988. Thanks for the comment.
Hi Jim ! I am curious on how multidisciplinary are the teams when the resort is in the design. At the top of my mind you mention traffic engineers, civil engineers, electrical engineers, urbanist, landscapers, architects, and more. What disciplines are important that perhaps laypeople don't think about ?
Good question. In order to build anything WDI employs many different people in many different fields. Building anything is a team effort. I found that scheduling and estimating were my friends moving my creative ideas toward reality. I should do an episode dealing with team roles on projects.
Can you make a video on what could be done with tomorrow land? It's potential if there's any..!?
The future of Tomorrowland is a worthy subject for an episode. Thanks for watching.
I have so many questions, but this is the one that Ive always wanted to ask. Are there restrictions on how deep you can dig down to build attractions? Like If you completely ripped out the subs (I know, sacrilege) and dug it out so you could house something akin to Rise of the Resistance, could you do that?
Been wanting to be an Imagineer but fear it's too late for me to do that. So I gotta be a fan and ask questions.
It’s never too late to not be an arm chair Imagineer. In answer to your question the depth you can dig down depends on the land you are planning to dig into. The muddy swamp of Florida or the sandy dirt of Anaheim requires different construction methods. And the weight of the construction affects if you build or not. All most anything can be built however the project cost increases depending on the location. Thanks for your question.
Always enjoy your video's a lot! Good to see more then the usual, high profile stuff. The infrastructure needed in order to make the rides, the lands and the environments. Would be interesting to get a brief: design the 'customer journey' from entry of Disney property to park. And then later to measure the client satisfaction and calibrate if needed.
You raise an interesting idea for an episode. One about the infrastructure a new ride requires. The bits and pieces guests don’t see but are required. Thanks.
I’m in the UK so Disneyland Paris is my park of choice. It’s so fascinating to learn your perspective on all things Disney Parks! Do imagineers ever truly retire? Or are you always looking at the parks with an imagineer’s eye?
I’m busier today than I’ve ever been. My Imagineering days aren’t over yet. And if you like my channel tell your friends to like and subscribe.
The long term Disneyland Forward plan will see Pixar Place Hotel removed.
Last time I was at Disneyland, Aug. 2012, I asked when (and why) the monorail nolonger had a stop at the Disneyland Hotel. I was told that the monorail NEVER went to a stop at the Disneyland Hotel. Could you please tell me if I was imagining stepping onto a platform at second level at the hotel to take the monorail to the park one New Years Eve?
You were not imagining the Monorail stopping at the Monorail Hotel. In fact the purpose for the expansion of the Monorail was to connect the Disneyland Hotel to Disneyland Park. The Monorail travel to the Hotel, stopped and then returned to Tomorrowland.
@jimhshull Thank you, the docent was adamant that I was wrong. Perhaps they should be trained on the history more.
@@richardsweeney197 The person answering your question should check their information.
@@jimhshull thank goodness we have resources like you to fall back on!
Why are there planes on the Avatar concept art ? Thx and have a good day
I applied artist license to the released concept art. My point being that above Disneyland is busy air space. Thanks for your comment.
The best Disneyland Forward plan is to go backwards, bring back the classic rides and $20 entrance fee.
The second best plan requires many missiles and ends with total destruction of all Disney theme parks.
You lost me.
