***Official*** Toy Story Land Information Thread

You’re reading a whole lot of specific from a very general statement. A Memorial Day-ish open is still the most likely scenario. Still, no one here truly knows.

Yep. Memorial Day is summer for WDW too.

This was released earlier today - certainly clears things up.

This is exactly what I am feeling but I do not have a Rex to blame....

@rteetz, officially-speaking, which initialisms should be used for the 2 Attractions?
Slinky Dog Dash - SDD
Alien Swirling Saucer - AS2, Aliens, AS*S, A*SS (I don’t think /***/ works at all)

What about A$$, A55 or @ss

... those are basic filter violations and usually result in Infraction points (30). And because none were chosen as the “official” initialism for Alien Swirling Saucer (AS2), they won’t be popping up in this thread Infraction-free.

Best to spell it out for the moment I guess. My guess...Slinky Coaster and TSMM tier one and and Alien Saucers tier 2.

AS2 is being used rather than typing out Alien Swirling Saucer.

Thanks hiro...

Thanks hiro...

No one will stop you from typing it out though!

 

[agavegirl1]

Thanks rteetz. I do watch your posts on Rumors an News. I also belong to that "other site" under a different name.

When did they start previews for Pandora? .

Maybe Disney folks should pay more attention to likely acronyms before they name something? Now we have Alien Swirling Saucer and Monsters Inc Laugh Floor.

And if anyone thinks I am joking, many of us know that companies/organizations consider likely acronyms all the time. In fact many times companies/organizations choose names purposely to align with a desired acronym.

My daughter introduced me to the Maze Runner movies recently. One of my first thoughts was what corporate idiot thought WCKD would be a good moniker?

 

[jimim]

I hope it is open for you!

Thanks man. Eventually it will be. We didn’t go last year so we didn’t see pandora even yet. So we got that. River of lights. And a bunch of small other new things since summer of 16. It would actually be nice if it wasn’t open yet. Less to worry about seeing. Lol

I think the Imagineers just decided it would be a funny joke to name it something with that acronym, and no one caught it.

So it seems a certainty that Slinky Dog will be Tier 1, and I'd imagine very unlikely the Saucers would be Tier 1. That would result in 6 Tier 1 attractions, which seems excessive. I'd imagine they would move Beauty & Beast to Tier 2. It would even seem possible to up the daily allotment to 2 Tier 1's. Then of course there is Star Wars next year likely resulting in some kind of change unless by then they are selling more and more FPs to the point that is really the only way to get them.

I think they will put both Toy Story Land attractions in Tier 1 like they did with both Pandora attractions.

Received my TP park crowd update Monday that Studios has dropped from 9 to 7 for June 3-9. A few minutes ago, I received notice that Studios has extended hours every day that week from 9 to 9:30. Hmmm.....

Weird that projected crowd levels would drop and park hours extended.

I thought the same thing but doesn't TP go by historical averages? And last year Pandora drew the crowds at that time of year. I'm not clear on whether TP has the ability to add predictive things in like opening of TSL...?

I had thought maybe that TP dropped the crowd levels based on snow days in the east - since I am first week of June, some may have to delay travel plans until later due to changing school schedules (TP had actually raised crowd level for my week a couple of months back). Then, of course, I was hoping that Disney changed to a later closing time at the Studios because something "new" may be opening? None of the other parks had their closing times change.

Time to wish on that star.
