I would think adding more Pandora to the park right now is a little bit of a hard sell as your average guests would see advertisements for Pandora at DAK and not realize it’s new. But adding stuff like Encanto / Indiana Jones or a new Lion King ride, those are things you can advertise and there...

I think avatar doesn’t necessarily sell avatar merch but the land and FoP definitely bring people to the park who then buy other merchandise.

I don’t see a night show happening at DAK yet. Safari and all animal exhibits close early, lion king and Nemo shows close early due to performers. You would have to hire a second whole set of performers to keep the shows open more than 8 hours. Most people aren’t riding Kali at night. And the...

I’m curious if there is any intention to either remove or fix the interactive queue elements? I remember there was some periscope type thing that you could look through and see a bird inside the cave and there was a button you could push to make an explosion happen on the mountain. These items...

Since the update, Test Track 3.0 wait times seem to consistently be some of the highest in any of the parks. Generally 80-90 minutes for a majority of the day. I’d be curious to see data if anyone can corroborate this and what the uptick in wait times could be attributed to? Are they running...

How are they going to go back to the drawing board for villians land if the permits are filed and already show where al the buildings are going? Are they going to scrap those permits and file new ones? Or is Disney offering up more land backstage to increase the size?

How are they going back to the drawing board for Villians land if they already have permits on where the buildings are going and all that?

To me, this promotion is almost going to be more important than Josh becoming CEO. This person is going to be the one partnering with imagineering and making decisions on what is to come next, not necessarily Josh. Josh is going to have to put trust in this person and give them the ability to...

I think Josh will be great for the parks. He definitely has some level of knowing what the theme park fan community wants. It’s not coincidence that we are getting a villain’s land and a monsters inc door coaster which had been talked about for like 20 years.

I love this! Hopefully this means no more CGI scenes.

Wonders of Life, Journey into Imagination and Star Tours all come to mind as attractions that are probably in the line of sight of Imagineering.

The drone show had little to no impact on guest spending. It ended up being a logistical nightmare with little to no benefit. Many of the restaurants are either breaking even or are up from last year.

Not even updated concept art. For a company who one minute is bringing back fan favorite concepts like the Door Coaster and a Villains Land to then hosting a fan event that is built on the back of parks announcements to not even have any updates is crazy to me and has me question how one...

There is one panel left today expected to yield some announcements.

Surprised they are releasing a lot of these details a week early. This all seems like very simple things that could have been announced at D23. So either there is going to be a focus on just a few things like villains land and cars or maybe they have plans for other announcements and don’t want...
