I watched a full walkthrough of Nintendo World and while what is actually there is really great (music, visuals, food, rides, etc. etc.) I can't help but feel like they could/should have done so much more with the IP. For being a "Nintendo" world, there's only Mario (and one tiny instance of Pikmin) characters. Where's DK, Zelda, Metroid, Splatoon....literally anything else? I get that Mario is by far the biggest IP (followed closely by Pokémon which I'm sure the Pokémon Company has plans for its own theme park), and that Universal Japan doesn't have the most land to play with, but I can't help but feel just a little disappointed.

A kid's run-through play area that's Zelda themed like the old Bugs Bunny play area at Six Flags, except instead of running through giant carrots and whacking them out of the way, it's beating the poo poo out of chickens that can then knock you over. Truly the most Zelda experience.

Although I think it was supposed to show up in Orlando first, as part of the land at open. However, with Covid screwing with things, who knows. Zelda was rumored for other areas in the park.

Clicked back into this thread to pick up where I left off, then switched to another tab and forgot. When I came back again to start reading, I forgot the posts were from 2018 and was wondering why you people aren't worried. Was a pretty wild when I realized. The post that made me realize said couldcareless posted:They just announced they are gonna have Disney cruises from New Orleans in 2020. Hell yeah

My family went on the inaugural NOLA Disney Cruise in February, exactly 1 year ago Sunday. In hindsight, I can’t believe we still went on the cruise and that they weren’t all canceled. Their pre-check for COVID was to ask if you had flu-like symptoms or had traveled to China in the last two weeks...

I went and looked at my posts from february 2020 and one of them is quoting someone asking about the train reopening, I think. except it just says "any reopening date?" and me saying "a year or two" accidentally psychic disneyland reopening post pre-covid closure

The funny thing is, I think the cruise ship at the time still had more awareness of COVID and better protocols than some local establishments I could visit right now....

The cruise line quickly adapted with sanitizer stations everywhere, no more self-service on the buffets. I'd be happy if that all stayed the same going forward.

Cruise lines already had virus protocols way before Covid, when too many cases of stomach issues would pop up, hygiene standards would get improved - up to not letting people self-serve at the buffet. With ships getting bigger and bigger, this has gotten more and more important. Could very well be we'll be cruising at those heightened sanitation levels as a permanent modus operandi for the foreseeable future.

Not to mention that the WandaVision show hangs it's hat on the aesthetics of "classic TV" unlike anything since Pleasantville, which was an ironic choice for a streaming service and will seem even sillier in a decade. I'm generally not a fan of stapling IP onto the very few original ideas left in the parks. I have no problem with IP being around, just stop rebranding these old bones. "TRON next to Space Mountain" is better than "TRON Mountain". EDIT: It could be argued Disneyland itself is an anachronism of this era. I love the place but the last time I sat in a Town Square park bench I dwelled on how this place served for so long as an antidepressant distraction to kid-boomers/Xers facing nuclear annihilation.

They're on the meteor, so probably? Assuming the old apocryphal story about that being the list of characters Disney can't use is right. weirdly, Monica Rambeau is also on there lol

I really like WandaVision, but CoP is like, WALT turned up to 11. You can give it love and update the last scene, but I cant imagine Disney doing anything to an OG Walt ride

If Disney wants to do little pop-up attractions to cash in on a current thing, that's fine. But to spend millions on a niche TV show that no one will give a poo poo about in a year is not a good idea.

The best part of Carousel of Progress is when it breaks down and they just leave people trapped in it for 45+ minutes

Just add the extreme heat and extreme cold parts from Test Track and that can be your reimagining of the future at Carousel of Progress I'm in the camp to move it completely tho
