Congratulations to the Disney #Imagineering team to deliver to guests a clever and appropriate design for the former fast pass facility. Flower shops of this type were common in the Hollywood of the 1930s. #DisneyJourney

#Comcast released its fourth quarter earnings on Thursday and the revenue for the company’s theme parks was up 22%. About $2.9 billion. Sign of #EpicUniverse successful opening. #DisneyJourney on YouTube.com/jimhshull covers the connection between #Universal and #Universal.

Is the future of Animal Kingdom a park filled with animated movie characters? How could this impact the park’s original mission? This and more are explored in the newest episode of #DisneyJourney.

#AI was present at #IAAPA in various forms. Had a productive long talk with www.roller.software/product-laun... #Roller The products released by vendors are new and raw but they point to a near future that will change theme parks. Following this story on #DisneyJourney

The Florida Conference Room was recreated on the #Burbank Disney Studios for the #Epcot announcement. The real conference room exists at 1401 Flower Street Glendale at #WDI. The door behind Walt is the one I walked through many times. Go to #DisneyJourney on YouTube for more.

All #DisneyParks projects have costs not directly associated with the attraction. Example is the unfinished back of the Quinjet at #AvengersCampus No one was seeing the back so it was unfinished, now it will be. More on #DisneyJourney

The #Muppets #ElectricMayhem van needs to have a permanent home in the new #RocknRoller Coaster. More thoughts on the reimagining over on #DisneyJourney

It was common during the building of #ToyStoryLand that I’d be asked for a quick field sketch covering a detail the builder didn’t understand. I always carried a notebook and pens. #DisneyJourney

Repainting the RocknRollerCoaster vehicles is fine, but just don’t touch the tail fins. The #Muppets band needs to travel in style. More on #DisneyJourney

The #RnRC vehicles can be repainted for the #Muppets #RocknRollerCoaster but the treatment needs to reflect ‘what would the Muppets do?’ More on #DisneyJourney

There’s an opportunity to upgrade technology in Studio ‘C’ for the #Muppets #rollercoaster. Install a LED wall. But please don’t touch the Les Paul guitar. More on #DisneyJourney

#CitywalkPop has opened at #UniversalHollywood & it looks like it operated by #Citywalk. This points toward the building being demolished when work begins on #UniversalGrandHotel to create a large arrival plaza. #DisneyJourney

Monsters Inc mini land will have a dead end. A connecting loop should be planned for when Backlot Express is demolished & the park expands further into the parking lot. More on #DisneyJourney

#Disneyland should buy #Knotts for a third gate. It’s as close to #DCA as #EpicUniverse is to #UniversalStudios. A purchase would allow #Disney to grow in Orange County and they need land. More on #DisneyJourney

Typical example of a textured wall panel with paint. Often several options will be made for the creative team to review. This is a step when creating a new #Disney ride such as #LionKing. More on #DisneyJourney

Image by ⁦‪@SoCal360‬⁩ Removing the Avengers quinjet building would open up the tight plaza and allow a real stunt stage and right sized retail location. Likely not going to happen but it would be the smart decision. #DisneyJourney

When the Columbia first sailed on the #RiversofAmerica the below deck area was yet unfinished. Soon enough it was and today guests can explore a one of a kind #Disneyland experience. It’s a museum quality experience that too few guests visit. #DisneyJourney

There’s debate as to if toilet graphics can be custom or must they follow the international system. The answer is graphics can be custom. All the designer needs to do is ask. More on #DisneyJourney #Graphics #graphicsystems

Unrecognizable as the future Main Street Opera House that would feature the #Lincoln attraction and #MickeyMouseClub is the lumber mill at #Disneyland. The mill was planned to be located where #Jungle-cruise is today. More on #DisneyJourney

The structural steel for the expansion of #AvengersCampus is going up! The construction is going fast in a cooler than usual summer. More on #DisneyJourney

First column for the new #Avengers ride has risen at #DCA. Good to see progress. Good luck to the #WDI team. More on #DisneyJourney

‘Off model’ Mickey is part of the charm of the street sign at #DisneyStudios in Burbank. Likely the sign will be duplicated for #DisneyHollywoodStudios opening in next year. Your moment of video zen and if you want more go to #DisneyJourney

#FantasticFourFirstSteps has dropped its 2nd week however the retro world would be inspiration for a reimagined #Tomorrowland at #Disneyland. More on #DisneyJourney

When Wonders of Life opened this was the marquee to ‘Cranium Command’, a theater show with a cast of television celebrities. Guests liked it if they could find it. The marquee would change. More on #DisneyJourney

This is the monument for the South Buena Vista Street entrance to #WaltDisneyStudios which inspired the new entrance to #DisneyAnimation at the #WDW #HollywoodStudios park coming in 2926. More on #DisneyJourney

The outline of the #MonstersInc is visible as is the new service road that will circle around its edge. Expect coaster steel from #Vekoma to rise before the end of 2025, then enclosed by the ride building. The far left notch looks like maintenance. More on #DisneyJourney Image by @bioreconstruct

The massive invasive new #Lakeshore Hotel at #DisneyWorld totally destroys the charm of staying in the wilderness on the Tri-Circle-D Ranch. It is a generic high rise not suitable for its site. More on #DisneyJourney

The archway lead guests into the studio portion of #DisneyMGM when the park opened on May 1, 1989. Art of Disney Animation, the Studio Tour & restaurant entertained many for decades. The arch is set to go. More on #DisneyJourney

The #Imagineers have leaned into the calm campus design of #TWDC #DisneyStudios in #Burbank and I couldn’t be more pleased. More on #DisneyJourney
