Yes- the structure on the "mainland" looks plenty large enough to house the queue and the train loading.I should've looked it up before I spoke. Looks like there is a tunnel for the ride.

Fake Disney characters are now a problem at Disneyland Shanghai
I am not sure if they struck a deal but I believe there were talks. This is something that is hard to prevent. It appears its not inside the parks of course but outside which Disney may have a tough time controlling.Didn't Disney strike a deal with the Chinese government to address stuff like this?

Pretty sad that Disney essentially relegated control of their brand to or is at the mercy of the Chinese government. It will be interesting to see how Disney manages this...
Well there was a news story a week or so ago that China is about to take over as the world leader in the theme park market. Disney isn't the only company taking advantage of that either, Universal and several others recently opened or are building theme parks.Part of me just wants to say "serves them right, and they are getting what they deserve". Disney and so many other companies have been stumbling all over themselves to get into the Chinese market the last handful of years, while essentially dismissing the US market. However, the other part of me realizes that all problems over there eventually will have negative consequences to operations here. #thanksshanghai
