    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Definitely passes the no-pants rule, unless you consider George's crown an article of clothing

    DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    Just saw Hoppers, which was an incredible return to form for Pixar and the early box office returns seem to show that it’s gonna be a big hit. The movie’s message also would really fit into Animal Kingdom seamlessly. Is it too soon to start dreaming up a North America/Pacific NW land themed...

    News Josh D’Amaro Named Next CEO of The Walt Disney Company

    Could mean additional muppets experiences in the parks as long as the special on February 4th does well. Everyone make sure you re-up your Disney plus subscription by tomorrow and be ready to stream that on repeat for the next year. We’ll have muppet vision 3d back in no time! ;)

    DHS Disney Animation-Inspired Experience Coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios

    I think the removal of the archway is going to make this area feel a lot more included within the center of the park compared to its own dedicated area. This will at least slightly help with the dead-end feeling animation courtyard has today

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    Yeah, the (overdue) removal of launch bay is a potential pathway to a much looser timeline over in Galaxy’s Edge. Obviously it’s already fairly loose with the presence of Mando and Grogu but I think the strict timeline days are over. The presence of Star Wars characters outside of the sequel...

    EPCOT Test Track to be reimagined

    Wow. wow, while I was a fan of the car customization pre show, I really never realized how lackluster 2.0 was until now. 3.0 is a massive upgrade, the show scenes are so much fuller.

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    Not a movie studio anymore. The best way to generally describe the current theme of the park is that it’s a place where you enter and are immersed inside the world of specific movies/shows. Galaxy’s Edge, TSL, soon to be Monster’s Inc, ToT, and even Muppets RnRc. Given that this is the new...

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    I’d argue that the ride should take place in Hawaii, given that a water ride is the main thing DHS needs. Of course other aliens can be present as well but the Hawaii location would be a great change of pace compared to the concrete jungle in the rest of the park.

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    just wishful thinking here but, so far today, we’ve gotten a lilo and stitch plug in the parksblog post about the animation building, and now confirmation about development on lilo and stitch 2. Lilo and stitch would make for an awesome water ride in this area, a “Hawaiian roller coaster ride”...

    Do you happen to know if connecting to the back of sunset blvd is part of the current plan?

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    That would be great. The earlier monsters is up and running, the earlier we can expect the Animation courtyard redo to get started

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    We’re all just making educated guesses, but my hunch is 2027 is solely tropical americas, while 2028 is the double-up year where monsters opens in first half while piston peak is second half. Then villains land gets 2029 to itself.

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    This would enhance DHS so much. An “adventure springs” type area (i.e., a parallel land to Adventureland the same way fantasy springs parallels fantasy land). Build the Moana flume using that patented tech from a couple years ago, clone the coco boat ride from DCA and throw in another IP of...

    DHS Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    Yeah, that was mainly my point. There’s no reason why DHS shouldn’t have three entrances to Galaxy’s edge when its west coast counterpart was designed with three from the get-go.

    DHS What should they do with Animation Courtyard?

    Whatever they end up doing in animation courtyard, there needs to be a boat ride. DHS would really benefit from a water attraction. It doesn’t even need to be a massive investment like the Shanghai pirates ride system (although that would be nice), just a nice slow moving boat ride similar to...
