I am surprised Disney World hasn't built another park on the massive Magic Kingdom Parking lot yet
While the changes to Buzz Lightyear weren't much, one major win Disney did implement was updating the user interface to be with todays gaming standards
It will be intresting to see what the new legacy store facade and interior will look like and if it will incorporate previous enhancements like the LED screens
With universal expediting new additions to Epic Universe to meet the demand I wonder when a parade will be greenlit it is in the long term plans and would be a fast way to improve the park lineup while longer term solutions like new rides get built
I saw some puppets 🥰

2 different eras of Disney Parks😭
I hope disney has their new small mobile animatronics behind lock and key backstage. Because with someone managing to steal buzzy it is a lot easier to just pick up olaf and put him on a truck

I agree, this will be an extremely interesting story to see unfold. I go into more detail in my new video podcast episode: Epic Universe Changed Everything… Sesame Street Is the First Casualty

If United Parks and Entertainment are forced to rethemed the sesame theme parks. A better move may be to sell them to another operator like universal who could be allowed to use the sesame characters and bring in their own as well and make it a universal kids park
Disney has developed massive improvements to projected animatronic faces yet chose to leave the version from 1998 untouched during a massive refurbishment 😭
What if Disney made the country bear jamboree a dinner show. The regular show could still play during the day but during the evenings guest could enjoy an exclusive version of the show while enjoying a meal. The infrastructure is there just the seating would need to be modified
Was thinking of the best use of this land and I would love if Cat In The Hat connected to Port Of Entry as a How to Train your dragon book report dark ride with hiccup sharing the story to others. To keep the Suess landing draw a Mount Crumpit coaster would be built as well
With Rock in Roller coaster losing the Aerosmith theme their is one licensed ride left at Disney World. While the tower of terror has its fans I believe the majority of guests just like it as a highly themed drop tower. Making me wonder if tower of terror is next.

There is enough room in Celestial Park To build a substantia dark ride like one themed to Captain Cacao. the only catch is the restrooms would need to be relocated or built around. For reference secret life of pets is 20,645 sqr feet

yes but they can always try and buy the
While Universal Hollywood isn't able to get a 2nd theme park with the land of the golf course next door. What if they bought and built it on the park and section of houses next door to its current resort? It would be pricy but provides universal and the city more value in the end
Animal Kingdom could be one of the best theme parks in the world if Disney continued to Invest in major additions to it. Instead, it just got one a decade. Hopefully this time it will be different
After Universal Themeparks Exhibition ends it run at the Franklin Institute I could see it touring to other big cities before being given a permeant home at Universal Orlando as the preview centers replacement
Surprised Disney has not built a permeant stage show in the Discovery River. They could build one on the level of fantasmic and already have the seating built for it.
NEW VIDEO: Over the years Universal has shifted from lands based around a general theme into investing it all on one IP. Here is why universal made the switch and strategy behind every IP land at the Orlando resort in this special hour long episode!

I agree, plus if they do go the new system route we could even see jaws come back
Here is the full breakdown of how skull island succeeded where supercharge failed

Supercharge is finally closing for good! But while the screen based aspect of the ride gets a lot of hate. Its underlying problem was how it was presented leading to hate while Skull Island received praise. It will be interesting to see if universal will try this system again or opt for a new medium
Universal has officially debuted a form of an open hub! While not for Epic Universe this could be a great way to test the waters and eventually debut it there as well down the road
Jurrasic Park River Adventure is now closed for a 318 day 19.2 million dollar refurbishment. Here is why

Universal Kids is designed for a smaller demographic but its implications on the brand look to also be used as a testing ground. One such example of this is the Senior Specialist of Internal Communications at the resort Brian Bender saying he is "building a communications program from the ground up"
