This is so beautiful. Close your eyes and you can almost smell the scents and see the sights.

Wow! This is as close as I’ll get to DW for awhile. Totally impressed.

Ummm...isn't that exactly what Stitch replaced?

I think that’s the joke.

Man, if you're going to do that joke, you need to set it up better or it'll land flat.

Nah, it was set up perfectly. Those who don't know about alien encounter will think it's real, those who do will smile.

I still have nightmares about that ride

I still have nightmares about that ride

I went on it once.

My chair must have been broken and I felt no effects. I spent the whole ride going "what's going on??? what am I missing???"

Couple of quick notes:

Theming elements have started to be added to Tron

I, for one, would be ecstatic if Alien came back!

 

[Fantasia79]

I know it is blasphemy around these parts, but I'm not exactly a fan of Carousel of Progress. It's true. On the pod cast, when they were talking about major attractions going dark, I thought of Carousel and hoped.

Looking at Tomorrowland, Tron is a welcome addition. Speedway could really use an update. The rest is fantastic. Hopefully they fill Stitch someday soon (I'm sure it'll be a while with the pandemic revenue loss).

Maybe we’ll get Univeral’s Florida Adventure in 6 years then.

I expected Epic Universe to be a pretty big game changer for the industry, it’d be a shame to lose out entirely. However they do still have all the plans for pleasing their current parks, so putting more focus into them for a few years could be great. Maybe build the Zelda and Pokemon lands earlier than planned.
