Last week, we used #LayoutTuesday to explore SeaWorld's ambitious but abandoned Empire of the Penguin dark ride. Here's how the space was re-used to create Penguin Trek – a B&M family launched coaster around Antarctica!

Just saw Gringotts slander too. It is a sad day 😔
This whole "sacrifice a modern E-Ticket" trend is bringing a lot of Smuggler's Run slander onto my timeline and I am NOT here for it
It's #LayoutTuesday! Here's a look at SeaWorld Orlando's ANTARCTICA: EMPIRE OF THE PENGUIN. You have to remember how unimaginable it was that in 2013, SeaWorld beat Disney to having a trackless, LPS dark ride. It wasn't great, but a bold showing from a Blackfish-era park! parklore.com/main/one-only
We love sequel-encore attraction design!!!
T2 is unbelievably saucy. I love Avatar, I love Titanic, but Jim Cameron cooked so hard, Gordon Ramsay briefly retired in 1991 and declared Jim the Masterchef
Paying respects to King Venymyss
Why on CHRISTMAS WEEK is Cheetah Hunt not running dual loading????
Favorite yearly Christmas tradition!!!
In the early 1960s, Walt Disney carried the torch of one of humanity's oldest pursuits, the search for mechanical life. The result was Audio-Animatronics, a new breed of robots that would soon populate the world. Watch Disney's Animatronics: A Living History now.
IT'S HERE AND IT'S REAL!!!
A Rohde original painting! Apparently he painted this and another painting on the reverse wall while waiting for the Animal Kingdom concept to get the greenlight!
Dirty jokes rock - those interns are such scamps!
High-key obsessed with these parody book titles, including Cretaceous Park, Captains Cretaceous, Beak House, and A Confederacy of Darwins
Another dirty rhyme about lusty co-eds 😅
@jonathansdimension.bsky.social and I (and Brooke!) had an impromptu Cast Member tour of Restaurantosaurus during lunch - so many details and storytelling bits (and Easter Eggs!) I would never have known were here. Now I’m legit sad we’re losing all of this and the story of Diggs County!
My brain will always go back to the DisneyQuest musical my friend and I tried to make that one time.
Welcome back, CineSational!
First IAPPA ever today!!
It's truly exciting when you realize that another country has released a complete series region-free box set for a series you know would NEVER get a complete physical media release in the US!
The Dezerland Cinemark is a diamond in the rough 💎📽
If Journey to Atlantis (Orlando and Texas) count as credits, why not Dudley Do-Right?
(But also your favorite one you've seen this year) 🫡
