News Round Up 2018

I think they tie the rollercoaster in with the story That the roller coaster is being opened by the Incredibles and Jack Jack escapes the VIP waiting lounge as he is too short to ride, kinda similar to Maggie in The Simpsons ride except not a simulator Apparently the Bob section of the 2nd scream tunnel smells like cookies which is probably an added bonus to being on the ride

You should then get cookies coming off the ride I know, there is a cookie booth you can buy them at.

The overlay is okay...as another poster posted, I wish the tunnels weren't so plain. And the multiplied Jack Jack's could have been done better. The land does look fun for what it is.

That that two way mirror? Go guests can't look into the cabins but people inside can look out. I guess that makes sense

I am interested to see what the final look will be ... seems like it wouldn't be the best idea to have a bunch of mirrors flying through the sky, reflecting the sun down of people or in the eyes of drivers in some areas.

I am interested to see what it is like at night - it might not be as jarring going in and out of the tunnels and the multiple Jack Jack's might come off better when you can't so clearly see the poles holding them up

You won’t be on these very long. AC on gondolas isn’t exactly common either.

Not very long is dependent on ones age, health, and tolerance for the FL heat.
We'll have to see how this works out for average guests.

I don't remember any of the rumors mentioning seats at all, could be wrong. If everyone stands they could handle the large rolling expeditions you sometimes see in the parks, side-by side strollers, wheeled coolers. That might be the only way. At ski resorts I've seen small benches around the sides, you sorta half-lean half-sit on them.

There was an earlier video on the dedicated thread but I don't feel like digging too much for it lol so I found this from a bit more recent video on the dedicated thread of what the manufacturer is likely making for Disney:



Obviously without having official confirmation from Disney it's hard to tell for sure. That's why I really want to see inside those puppies lol.

Whatever your thoughts are on the Incredicoaster overlay, it must be a really cool experience to ride a ride with the creative director of that ride (or at least overlay to that ride):

I posed that but it got lost in the Pixar Pier discussion

I really don’t think it will be a major problem.

Could also be some of that reflective UV tint stuff on the glass to help them not be total greenhouses.

That's what I was thinking we were seeing - potential ability to reflect heat instead of direct it inward.

Just want to post a reminder that we have a Skyliner thread. The link if you need it is on the first post of this thread.

Reposting this as it may have gotten lost. Welcome additions to the Halloween party at MK.

I guess the Roseanne character doesn’t survive the surgery.

I never thought about that. They may have set up her exit without even knowing it.

 

[Firebird060]

I want a pirate to ride the ride with me during the Halloween party lol

There might be a little bit too this - but I am thinking that even with "free dining" they have a lot of occupancy available in early September. More than likely it's an incentive to try and get people to come at a slow time of year. (They aren't adding a lot to the price for the "extras".

Apparently it's working. I've been looking for an excuse to stay at a non-value resort and this is it. I was originally booked at POP that week but I've just changed it to CBR! My TA was saying it was filling up fast which might explain why I'm in the 4:30 seating for the exclusive dinner!

Based on the new DCA park map it looks like the Inside Out ride at Pixar Pier will be called Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind.

I wonder when they plan on starting that.

I assume after bugs land closes but who knows.

You’d think they would’ve started prilimanry work though. This Pixar Pier thing is just weird.

It has been strange ever since the D23 announcement. If I remember correctly, Pixar Pier was the one announcement that gathered the least amount of cheers/applause during the Parks and Resorts Presentation.

I have always had hope that Pixar Pier would do well. However, with it opening with two attractions not even opening yet, since when has Disney done something like that? New Fantasyland maybe? I consider that different since Disney added a lot of things. A lot of Pixar Pier is just overlays of existing attractions.
