The Case of the D23's Land v World

The Case of the D23's Land v World

Everyone is covering D23 from August of 2024. It's been done. We are above such low hanging fruit.

Who are we kidding? Low hanging fruit is the easiest to pick, that's where that phrase comes from. Being the show we are, we discuss the D23 expo and all the domestic parks announcements but we decide which resort won D23 and all the announcements.

[00:00:15] Welcome to the Supreme Resort Land v World, a podcast about Disneyland and Walt Disney World and which is the Supreme Resort.

[00:00:26] Each episode we will discuss and explore each resort ride by line, ride by, no, ride by ride.

[00:00:33] Rides have lines.

[00:00:34] There are lines, yeah. Rides have lines.

[00:00:36] Land by land, park by park, announcement by announcement to determine which is better.

[00:00:42] Sure. That's right, folks. We want to think about the things that aren't a thing yet.

[00:00:47] I'm your host, Jimmy, and thank you for joining me on this quest.

[00:00:52] Just reading the teleprompter, everybody.

[00:00:54] Thank you for joining me on this quest to help the greater good of humanity answer this long elusive question,

[00:00:59] which is better Disneyland or Walt Disney World?

[00:01:01] I am Eric, as the teleprompter doesn't say.

[00:01:06] Jimmy, are you Jimmy?

[00:01:08] I am. I'm glad to be here. Thank you, Eric.

[00:01:11] Eric, go F yourself San Diego.

[00:01:14] Wow.

[00:01:16] Dan, what do you think about San Diego?

[00:01:20] I think it's a remarkably rich tapestry of so many different neighborhoods that are in no way segregated because they exist.

[00:01:34] Hear, hear.

[00:01:35] Yeah.

[00:01:36] Fantastic.

[00:01:37] Mine was a little bit of a nod to Ron Burgundy.

[00:01:41] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:01:42] The teleprompter.

[00:01:43] Nice.

[00:01:44] Teleprompter thing.

[00:01:45] And then I went and made it political.

[00:01:46] And Dan was just delivering the truth.

[00:01:49] Yeah.

[00:01:49] Well, no, no.

[00:01:50] Hashtag the truth.

[00:01:52] Because diversity equals a bunch of separate neighborhoods.

[00:01:57] That's true.

[00:01:58] They are diverse by nature.

[00:01:58] I think our, I think the, hold on.

[00:02:02] There are dogs.

[00:02:03] Nope.

[00:02:03] Diverse dogs.

[00:02:05] I might need to go check the door.

[00:02:07] I, this keeps happening.

[00:02:09] Sorry.

[00:02:10] Show's over.

[00:02:12] Hi, Eric.

[00:02:14] Hey, Jimmy.

[00:02:15] What's going on?

[00:02:17] Hey.

[00:02:17] Did you go to D23?

[00:02:20] Do I want to?

[00:02:21] Did you?

[00:02:22] I did not go to D23, although I didn't, also didn't watch it.

[00:02:26] But I watched the next day and I was very excited about all the many things to see and will see in years to come.

[00:02:37] And I'm excited to talk about it.

[00:02:39] Oh.

[00:02:40] And get you guys.

[00:02:41] We have not spoken about D23 in general.

[00:02:45] Our opinions on who does what's what and what's where.

[00:02:48] Now, Dan is back so you can continue.

[00:02:50] Nice.

[00:02:51] Have either of you ever considered going to D23?

[00:02:55] D23.

[00:02:56] Yes.

[00:02:57] I plan on doing D23 sometime like when I'm older, sort of like a lot of older white ladies do.

[00:03:03] And I'm just really hoping, hoping to see any hint of anything spicy in the result.

[00:03:09] That's a joke about 23 and me, a thing that old white ladies do to find out whether or not they can make racist, racist jokes.

[00:03:21] How much?

[00:03:22] How much American?

[00:03:24] Come on.

[00:03:25] Just give me a touch of something.

[00:03:28] Well, am I part of?

[00:03:32] Exactly.

[00:03:34] Are you American?

[00:03:36] Here's your percentage.

[00:03:40] Yeah.

[00:03:40] Eric, your show buddy.

[00:03:44] Oh, okay.

[00:03:45] Yeah.

[00:03:45] Sorry.

[00:03:46] No, I don't want to go to D23 ever.

[00:03:49] Thanks for not elaborating on that.

[00:03:51] Either of you.

[00:03:52] I, you know what?

[00:03:53] I did not.

[00:03:55] I've considered it.

[00:03:55] I wanted to go this year.

[00:03:57] You know, I'd go to a lot of trade shows and what never occurred to me until this year, this very year, is that D23 is a trade show.

[00:04:06] Yeah, pretty much.

[00:04:07] I go to so many.

[00:04:08] For decades, I've gone to trade shows.

[00:04:10] And, you know, I'm in an industry and I walk around that industry.

[00:04:14] It's like, yeah, that's there's some stuff.

[00:04:16] You know, there's things.

[00:04:19] There you go.

[00:04:20] Does the education industry have an event like D23?

[00:04:24] They must.

[00:04:25] I'm sure they do.

[00:04:26] And I look forward to a time in my life when I can get paid to go to them and also not go to them.

[00:04:34] Here's the latest book.

[00:04:36] And I'm sure they have them in the pharmaceutical industry and all that stuff, Eric.

[00:04:40] But it's like, you know, you have your interest, right?

[00:04:42] Like my interest in this particular industry I'm in is very narrow.

[00:04:47] And I could walk around this trade show and like, oh, hey, look, this is a new way to slaughter pigs.

[00:04:52] Hooray.

[00:04:52] Like, I just don't really care.

[00:04:55] You know, so what occurred to me this time is like, this is an entire trade show dedicated to a thing I'm really passionate about.

[00:05:01] Why don't I go to this thing?

[00:05:03] Jimmy, of course, works in the sadism industry.

[00:05:07] He's not in the pig slaughtering industry.

[00:05:09] That's just adjacent.

[00:05:11] That's right.

[00:05:12] I'm sorry.

[00:05:13] Was there confusion?

[00:05:14] Anyway, but yeah, just like a whole trade show dedicated to things that I love and I'm passionate about.

[00:05:19] Why wouldn't I go?

[00:05:20] Like pig slaughtering.

[00:05:21] Well, again.

[00:05:26] Anyway.

[00:05:27] Yeah.

[00:05:27] So that was a more elaborated version of your question, Eric.

[00:05:31] Yes, I have considered and I probably will at some point in my life go to D23.

[00:05:36] Okay.

[00:05:36] I think I have a strong aversion to trade shows mainly because my I'm about to say possibly the most white thing that a person can say.

[00:05:52] My parents used to own a an interior decorating store.

[00:05:57] They still own a khaki store.

[00:05:59] Okay.

[00:06:00] An interior decorating store in which they sold frames and wallpaper and paint.

[00:06:05] There we go.

[00:06:07] And as such, I would as a child get dragged to so many trade shows.

[00:06:14] And I hate them.

[00:06:17] See, I thought you were going to say the whitest thing anyone's ever said.

[00:06:20] There's too much seasoning in that potato salad.

[00:06:23] Too soon.

[00:06:24] Like, you know, Jimmy, I am going to push back against your anti-white racism.

[00:06:31] I don't know.

[00:06:32] What is the whitest thing someone could say?

[00:06:34] That their parents owned a frame shop.

[00:06:36] That's fair.

[00:06:38] Khaki store also works.

[00:06:40] Right.

[00:06:41] All right.

[00:06:42] Well, thank you both for weighing in on this very important topic.

[00:06:47] Let's stay on this very important topic.

[00:06:48] Potato salad or pig slaughter?

[00:06:52] Mayonnaise versus Miracle Whip.

[00:06:56] Mayonnaise all the way.

[00:06:57] I think you're right, Dan.

[00:06:59] I've been making a homemade Caesar salad dressing for weeks.

[00:07:02] Where's my wind sound?

[00:07:05] I've been making a homemade Caesar salad.

[00:07:08] Really good.

[00:07:08] But instead of like doing oil and eggs and stuff, just mayonnaise.

[00:07:13] Right.

[00:07:13] And it's been phenomenal.

[00:07:14] Chef's kiss.

[00:07:15] Sky anus.

[00:07:16] Nice.

[00:07:17] I didn't.

[00:07:18] This last batch I made, I didn't have mayonnaise.

[00:07:21] I had Miracle Whip.

[00:07:22] And so I used Miracle Whip instead of mayonnaise for the Caesar dressing.

[00:07:25] And it was awful.

[00:07:26] Yeah.

[00:07:27] Oh.

[00:07:27] Do you grind the anchovies yourself?

[00:07:29] I use an anchovy paste.

[00:07:31] Okay.

[00:07:32] Oh.

[00:07:32] Free ground.

[00:07:34] Fresh minced garlic.

[00:07:36] It's all very good.

[00:07:37] A little bit of spice in there.

[00:07:38] It's good.

[00:07:39] Anyway, don't use Miracle Whip for your Caesar dressing.

[00:07:42] The end.

[00:07:43] All right.

[00:07:44] Thanks, everybody.

[00:07:47] Goodbye.

[00:07:49] Hey, we got a D23, didn't we?

[00:07:53] All right.

[00:07:53] So we're going to do D23.

[00:07:55] D23.

[00:07:56] And because I'm sick of doing D23 shows, I'm in charge.

[00:08:01] Yeah.

[00:08:04] And I'm going to have us do D23 Coast versus Coast, which is a thing that we do around here on the Supreme Resort, Land V World.

[00:08:15] and um yeah we're gonna we're gonna take that on in this way that we do things and so what you're

[00:08:22] saying is we're going to address d23 in the announcements like the like everyone yeah but

[00:08:27] at the end of this we're going to decide who won d23 disneyland or disney world exactly this is

[00:08:33] this is not what most shows have done most shows have been like oh what's gonna happen

[00:08:39] where are they gonna dig the hole for for this uh cocoa attraction we're gonna do that too by the

[00:08:47] way but still at the end we're gonna decide who's better at the end which one is better and because

[00:08:52] there is an element of risk involved with all of this how much are we going to lose

[00:09:01] to gain these amazing things um there will be negative points associated with this episode

[00:09:11] so i think what we're what we're all saying here is that we are not simply doing the easy thing that

[00:09:17] everyone else is doing this is a unique take any unique that's right yes we are working we're working

[00:09:23] both both parts of our asses nobody nobody works us hard no that's right and just tell your friends

[00:09:35] wow i can't believe i can't believe it's not half ass now available right in stores i will absolutely

[00:09:41] subscribe to this show um if dan says something about disneyland that i like

[00:09:49] dan what sound will i hear uh you'll hear that that sound that i am making with my mouth while

[00:09:56] speaking right now those intro quiz classes are really they really are

[00:10:04] well what was that sound you made what that was impressive it was do it again dan okay hold on

[00:10:13] start talking oh i can only do it while i talk i'm sorry you see

[00:10:17] that sound right there that i just made it's the mark twain uh whistle which uh is uh you know a

[00:10:25] little a thing that'll continue okay yes yes it's not going anywhere right how about uh a sound

[00:10:33] how about a sound that that would express my displeasure with your your statements okay hold on

[00:10:40] let me start speaking so i can make that sound as well and there you go i just need the sound

[00:10:46] well that was remarkably similar to the sound that you would hear on the rocket rods that's true

[00:10:52] well done thank you uh jimmy jimmy is not quite so talented as i haven't taken those classes yet

[00:10:58] yeah dan did give me a gift certificate but i haven't used it all right uh so jimmy uh purse your lips

[00:11:05] and uh make your first sound have you tried staples wow good job that's if you don't like it

[00:11:11] sure yeah that's if i don't like it and if i do like the things that you're saying i love that idea

[00:11:18] uh the old steven tyler standby yeah and the have you tried staples is from scrooge that's right

[00:11:26] where he is trying to get stable trying to get antlers to stick on mice that's right correct

[00:11:32] cutting corners yeah being careless with the brand so some might say

[00:11:39] interesting okay interesting take let's get there uh where do we want to start who wants to kick us

[00:11:46] off um disneyland is older than disney world 1955 by michael eisner himself

[00:11:56] oh oh thank thank you michael wait is michael here hello he sure is he is oh thank you

[00:12:02] my boys here in spirit um i don't know eric how do you want to start no there are fewer announcements

[00:12:11] in disneyland this year so i wouldn't mind starting out with with walt disney world let me start with

[00:12:19] oh with disney world okay i was gonna start yeah so i want to start uh first of all uh we need a

[00:12:25] breck eisner hello um for the files second um i i'd like to start i'm gonna kind of start in

[00:12:34] reverse order if that makes sense like what what i think is the biggest most exciting all the way down

[00:12:39] can we start with the thing that is the same between the two which is the oh million falcon

[00:12:45] right yeah that's a good idea all right go for it so here's my copy from the old disney

[00:12:51] uh a new story featuring mando and his youngling is coming to millennium falcon smugglers run on both

[00:12:58] hollywood studios and disneyland resort with some help from epic epic's unreal engine this new mission

[00:13:08] will kickstart once the mandalorian and grogu hits theaters in 2026 um i'm excited about this it's

[00:13:15] going to be a new same thing you do every time which is a lot of that i think they're not going

[00:13:23] to get no reskinning hondo is the best most exciting thing they can do therefore honda will

[00:13:32] still be in the show i think because it would be okay got it okay so they'll probably keep hondo

[00:13:41] it's hondo anaka it's his station they have to re-record all of the audio in the queue that

[00:13:46] nothing's changing we don't have to we still have to get coaxium but grogu's gonna be on the coaxium

[00:13:56] box i just had a moment where i imagine verner herzog as an animatronic

[00:14:02] for hondo and it was wonderful you must collect more coaxium

[00:14:10] um so i don't know what the i think the story will probably tie into the movie

[00:14:15] that that's coming out i still think it's gonna have to be some kind of adventure that you have

[00:14:20] to go retrieve or do whatever it's still a game right um but i don't think the queue is gonna change

[00:14:26] i think somehow they're gonna shoehorn millennium falcon in because you have to

[00:14:30] i was just thinking that like the millennium falcon isn't in that thing that we know yeah

[00:14:38] maybe they maybe they're gonna shove it in the movie somehow probably i mean it's so iconic you

[00:14:45] kind of almost have to but um so millennium falcon still exists right at this point in the timeline

[00:14:53] this is before uh ray discovers it on uh jaku right so whoever owns it encore plot owns it at

[00:15:03] this point maybe um oh god oh yeah when somebody has stolen it no they already have it because

[00:15:11] this place is set in the like 18 hours between the first movie and the second movie so

[00:15:23] okay they already did they steal it this is a terrible idea that's a good point well here's

[00:15:30] here's the other the other point as part of this oh nobody asked are we breaking the timeline are we

[00:15:36] are we taking galaxy's edge and are we making it a completely different are we just making it star

[00:15:42] wars land that's interesting i think okay i have a couple thoughts on that and it's gonna sound snarky

[00:15:49] but i think you'll also both understand where i'm going with this i think that um that makes a lot of

[00:15:56] sense to do and they should do it but they can't and they won't because while they would do it in

[00:16:05] california they wouldn't do it that's right they've already started in california with having

[00:16:12] mando and grogu there like i've met like that was that was a big highlight meeting mando and

[00:16:20] the advantage they have to these two characters is mando doesn't age because he has a mask on

[00:16:26] and grogu doesn't age because he's 50 and he's still a baby so even if he's 70 he's still just

[00:16:31] you know a baby or whatever so i think that the timeline doesn't matter when it comes to these

[00:16:36] characters so as far as this ride goes like what is the ride going to be i i think they're going to

[00:16:42] redo the ride you're still going to fly out of galaxy's edge you're still going to fly out about

[00:16:46] two and back i assume chewy's still going to be there that what they should do is replace hondo with

[00:16:55] mando and he and grogu are there as animatronics telling you what to do what they need you to do get

[00:17:01] rid of hondo altogether here's what we need you to do you need to go retrieve this thing what what will

[00:17:06] jim cummings do without his his residuals or replace hondo with uh the nick nolte character or hell

[00:17:14] nick nolte himself

[00:17:21] the trouble that disney has tying um something like this into a film property is that that film won't

[00:17:28] have been successful yet so it has to kind of be specific to these characters that are already popular

[00:17:33] without tying in the actual movie because we don't know if it's going to be good or not

[00:17:37] but we like the show we like yeah exactly well we like rogu and and man we liked we liked some

[00:17:44] seasons of it yeah well best season of mandalorian was uh boba fett

[00:17:53] i wonder if we're reaching if we're veering into

[00:17:59] i've speculated this before but i wonder if this is actually the the beginning of another dark age for

[00:18:06] disney where they get too huge too hubristic and you know how sometimes they like how you know how

[00:18:13] they have that history of being like hey you know what else is cool this thing and this thing and this

[00:18:18] thing and this thing and this thing and you're just like uh not anymore sorry i'm gonna disagree with

[00:18:24] you because i feel like we're almost heading toward a marvel ish phase three infinity war end game

[00:18:33] maybe like we're getting to the point where everybody's like i really liked all the star wars

[00:18:39] stuff oh wow there's a movie great maybe maybe i don't know at least i'd like that to be the thing

[00:18:47] i would too i just i'm always aware that you know there's there's there's always another just like

[00:18:53] the sith there's always another paul presler waiting and behind the scenes you know oh perhaps

[00:18:59] good reference which if it's all the same to york let's move on unless we have anything specific

[00:19:03] about this that nobody cares about no i think everybody wins on this one it's new content in a

[00:19:08] ride that promised content kind of like star tours well star tours like totally pays off like star tours

[00:19:17] keeps adding in content i was thinking uh midway mania or toy story mania right where they don't

[00:19:25] they've done it once yeah they added new stuff so the thing i think the thing that i keep thinking

[00:19:31] about is that this ride initially was going to be like an open format where you can just kind of

[00:19:38] explore and they give you like loose challenges along the way and that sounded fun yeah um and i i i feel

[00:19:47] like we're not gonna get that can i introduce another element to this which is if they get it

[00:19:55] how do they get it right in your review and how do they get it wrong in your view based on like

[00:20:01] their tendencies oh you mean outside of the star wars thing like across the board with all these

[00:20:07] topics across the board if if we can if there's time because i think with this one i would love for

[00:20:13] this to be no matter what they do with the actual ride itself i would love for this to be the moment

[00:20:20] where they just say f it to the timeline this is just star wars land how they get this wrong is it's

[00:20:27] just star tours part two and the millennium falcon aspect of it is basically just ignored you just

[00:20:34] happen to be in this vehicle yeah i think i already said my my version of that which is they get it wrong

[00:20:40] by keeping hondo keeping everything exactly the way it is right and just adding elements of mando and

[00:20:46] they shoehorn they get it right by reskinning hondo to mando with grogu and he's the one that's

[00:20:53] talking to you and get rid of chewy because you don't need them yeah i think that's interesting

[00:21:00] i think you could still shoehorn hondo into the mando story sure timelines fit but right like he's

[00:21:09] who knows how long he lives like it's totally fine to have him go hey you're gonna meet my new friend

[00:21:17] and i think it would be a good sort of it would be definitely a sign of good faith on their part if

[00:21:24] they replaced hondo with any character from the mandalorian like somebody that people recognize

[00:21:31] right even if even if it's a new character that kind of resembles the world you know like like

[00:21:36] yeah i i and jim cummings can still do the voice just so he still has a paycheck you know yeah

[00:21:43] what if it's tigger um there you go i love that idea steve tyler loves that idea well and we're not

[00:21:53] losing anything with that which is except for our dignity which is fine that's true and we and we

[00:21:58] have lots to gain also new adventure new experience right all right what's next all right so for me

[00:22:04] i'm like i originally said i want to start kind of thing i'm most excited about on the way down and

[00:22:08] coincidentally the very last thing on my list was the millennium falcon um so just briefly because

[00:22:14] there's not a lot to say the thing i'm most excited about is villains land now this is disney's response

[00:22:20] to epic universes um monsters realm or whatever it's called right right obviously it hasn't been

[00:22:28] proven successful but it's their you know their counter excited there's you know dress up opportunities

[00:22:35] there for kids and there's a cool attraction associated with it yeah so i think this um i'm

[00:22:44] i'm most excited about it there's gonna i'm gonna read disney's copy uh the world's most visited theme

[00:22:49] park will be getting its largest land expansion ever with disney's iconic villains uh the expansion

[00:22:55] at magic kingdom the keystone park at walt disney world resort will bring new and beloved stories to

[00:22:59] life disney imagineers blah blah blah um since this is from josh tomorrow since the beginning are disney

[00:23:05] villains have given us endless possibilities to tell new stories in this new land you'll see

[00:23:11] storytelling on a giant grand scale that only disney can deliver a couple of things what we're

[00:23:17] going to lose i think we're already going to lose because of cars is rivers of america the only

[00:23:23] geographical place oh wait that's just a light negative sorry the only geographical space they

[00:23:30] can do when they say largest expansion ever that means it has to be larger than new fanti which was

[00:23:36] i think 12 acres or something the only geographical space they have to expand is northwest of the hunted

[00:23:45] mansion so in that case we're losing rivers of america but that's the only space they have to expand

[00:23:53] so that's where it's probably going to go um so i don't know if we're losing anything per se

[00:23:59] uh they could realistically do it without getting rid of rivers of america but i think that's where it's

[00:24:04] going to go i'm excited about it maleficent's castle chernabog you know a lot of water uh dining

[00:24:12] experiences uh a villain's roller coaster we've been talking about this for a long time so i'm most

[00:24:17] excited about villains land coming now the indication was all of these projects are a go

[00:24:25] quote unquote they're in development like i guess maybe another framing device we should have done is

[00:24:31] is everything we're going to talk about today actually going to happen i mean zeddy josh said

[00:24:39] five years for everything that's what i heard too so so so that that means that this thing is going to

[00:24:45] be built before the end of this decade and this is i mean they don't it's very vague what they're doing

[00:24:52] right they haven't posted anything real but i have heard there were sightings of executives looking at

[00:25:00] areas i mean it's kind of like the old i mean it's like joe rhodi was on the the track of the people

[00:25:07] mover like who knows if that's actually a real thing what what's going to happen with it but

[00:25:11] they announced it and that's something right the beauty part about it is once they drain the river

[00:25:18] there is no stopping construction like nothing has to go away they don't have to shut a ride down for

[00:25:25] capacity like they can just build right because that area is pretty open yeah yeah it's just that

[00:25:31] they can just build all the time every day they can be building and they're not taking anything away

[00:25:36] dan has provided that means rivers of america is already gone right dan has thoughts that he wants

[00:25:42] to project from his mouth i'm just looking at it and i'm thinking about how this usually works i think

[00:25:47] we will i think we're looking at we definitely will get a villain's land we definitely will get all

[00:25:52] the things that they're talking about but i think that they're leaving it purposely vague

[00:25:56] to kind of see when does epic universe open do we know uh this year maybe yeah 2025 speculation is q1

[00:26:06] okay so we've moved hotels are being sorry hotels are being booked i think starting in february

[00:26:12] no that thank you for for filling me in yeah because i haven't been paying very close attention but

[00:26:17] but yeah villains land is definitely it i mean it's a better epic universe has villains

[00:26:25] yeah but what kids care about the mummy versus kids that care about maleficent

[00:26:33] that's true i think i think they might be waiting to see how dark they can go based on the response

[00:26:42] to that yeah what happens at epic universe because they don't have to break ground until 2026 to really

[00:26:48] build the land by 2029 that's fair and so they can kind of see how it goes but the other thing i want

[00:26:53] to say about it and from a positive perspective is where is the halloween focus at disney world

[00:26:58] is that the magic kingdom right think about how popular the villains layer is you know the redwood

[00:27:05] creek trail how popular that is at dca where the halloween you know that's the epicenter of halloween

[00:27:11] for disneyland so what could they do with villains land especially at halloween time which

[00:27:17] obviously goes from july to july to july well disney world it's very long um i think also the sort of

[00:27:27] the one of several elephants in the room for me are about around this is that epic universe i mean you

[00:27:35] both and regular listeners know what i think it's going to be it's going to be you know uh six flags

[00:27:42] park with really themed really well themed cues um ron and hermione will be there it'll be fine

[00:27:49] well i think that something that people aren't really taking into account is that like universal

[00:27:56] kind of just needs to make an effort at placemaking and people will like go nuts they'll be like oh

[00:28:02] they're doing it wow where disney has set this standard understandably to where they kind of

[00:28:09] they can't win this game if they're going to try to play it because if they and i'm not talking about

[00:28:15] just villains land i'm talking about just them trying to directly compete with epic universe

[00:28:20] because epic universe has the luxury of low expectations disney does not and so like it's

[00:28:29] almost like if you were to have light magic at universal today people would people would think it's

[00:28:33] like a valiant effort right or like you could get away with having something called rock around the shop

[00:28:38] there or superstar limo would probably still be open and like made fun of but they would still have it

[00:28:43] open there you know like the the standard is like much lower it's like all they have to do is have

[00:28:49] an animatronic and everyone's like you know um i will push back a little bit dan only because

[00:28:57] universal redefined the standard with diagon alley and hagrid's motorbike adventure they redefine the

[00:29:03] standard true but i think that that um it's there's still sort of this understanding of like

[00:29:11] yeah it's universal if they phone in a little bit we're we kind of expect that you know that's fair

[00:29:16] it's it's more i think that that the the harry potter stuff over there stands out more as an outlier

[00:29:23] and people really appreciate it as like wow not only did they do it but they did it they really did

[00:29:29] but they don't have to they don't have to reach that level every time and i think they know it

[00:29:33] yeah absolutely even i mean let me just bring this up here because i haven't had a chance to really

[00:29:42] think about this anywhere else wait you did this whole thing on the ears up how come you didn't

[00:29:47] talk about it didn't you get all your thoughts out there no i i uh i fell asleep all right what um

[00:29:55] no i let i let ryan uh express his his things um that's what happened on that episode uh but no

[00:30:03] like thinking about the new epic universe like harry potter area we're doing this weird this weird

[00:30:12] thing where we're going back to 1920s france but then we're gonna kids love right kids kids love france

[00:30:22] and then we're gonna jump forward in time to include the people that the kids want to see

[00:30:28] harry ron and hermione we're gonna jump forward in time to do an attraction based off of the movies

[00:30:36] i'm telling you i harry potter movies not the not the uh fantastic beasts movies no i really do think

[00:30:45] that that universal figured out that all they need to do is cater to mainly the teen

[00:30:51] and the thrill ride market because they're not really being catered to in that area right build

[00:30:58] build a six flags park basically and just gussy up all the flat rides and roller coasters with like

[00:31:06] just like what would be considered a c-level attempt at theming if it were in a disney park but because

[00:31:15] it's in a universal park it's going to be like wow that i can't whoa they have a fountain wow i'm

[00:31:22] gonna say like i think i think the harry potter stuff that they've done thus far the potterverse

[00:31:29] areas that they have done are fantastic like they're not trying i'm not trying to take away from that

[00:31:34] but if you but if you look if you look at the the the promotional stuff that they've put out

[00:31:40] and think how is this actually going to look not you know yay look at the schematics look at the you

[00:31:47] know the the music and the little lightning effects and it's oh it's all magical it's like okay

[00:31:51] take take that away take the production value away the cg element away and it's just you know the how

[00:31:58] to train your dragon it's just a ride that looks like a dragon that is the ride goes along water you

[00:32:05] know yeah i mean i've heard thing great things about like veloci coaster but that's it's that's a

[00:32:11] different veloci coaster also uh nice all right so yeah the new the new park yeah i don't know

[00:32:18] the harry potter rides are are cool but i'd just rather stand there in the area yeah i think eric to

[00:32:26] your point i don't know that they're going to theme the land the france area as the 1920s

[00:32:32] i think it's going to be modern day ministry of magic in france and i do think that dolores

[00:32:39] umbridge was in fact the best villain of the disney or disney of the harry potter franchise oh for sure

[00:32:45] she's yeah she's also digressing quite a bit so the uh anyway villains land i'm the most excited

[00:32:52] about that i think that's good that is the best announcement at d23 i i think villains land

[00:32:57] completely wins as far as something that we've wanted for a long time at a at a disney park and it

[00:33:05] also wins as a response to what is happening at universal i love that idea i think it loses if it

[00:33:14] becomes too much of a response though i think that they need to maintain their identity because epic

[00:33:21] universe is going to pull the audience it's going to pull right uh and i think that that that disney

[00:33:27] i hope they're not i just hope they're not overreacting and um i think it could be really

[00:33:33] good but only if they commit to making it kind of scary and uncomfortable for certain people

[00:33:41] i already awarded a point dan i know i'm just and i'm willing to bet i'm willing to bet with this

[00:33:50] we're going to have haunted mansion holiday during the interesting interesting oh i don't know because

[00:33:58] how they're they're going to lean in on the halloween thing and we all know everyone's favorite

[00:34:02] halloween movie that is not a christmas movie at all is herbie from the twisted mind of tim burton

[00:34:10] coralline 3d coralline lance burton um batman returns okay i don't know let's leave that alone for now

[00:34:17] because i would talk more about it but we've got a show to do uh dan do you want to talk about a

[00:34:24] disneyland thing i want to talk about a disneyland thing i'm going to start with the thing that

[00:34:28] i am most confused by just because well just because i don't fully i don't get what they're

[00:34:36] what they're going for i'm delighted by the idea of stark flight lab but have no idea what it's going

[00:34:43] to be uh i it's it's pretty obvious from the pictures well but like yeah i mean physically

[00:34:52] it's going to be a thing that looks like that but like it's the sum of all thrills but why do we go

[00:34:58] on it look i'm not anti it i think it's i think it's fine i'm not i'm not saying it's a bad idea

[00:35:04] or anything like that i'm just i see that and i have the even though it's it is the most clear

[00:35:11] and it's like this is what this ride is it's like okay but why ride i mean i'm for it don't get me

[00:35:22] wrong i think that that dca needs help and the more things that we can put there that aren't you

[00:35:29] know we we took the land that was supposed to have two attractions and has had one for a long time and

[00:35:35] we're putting all three in there i'm all for it i don't get me wrong i'm not saying that this ride

[00:35:39] shouldn't exist or it won't exist i just don't understand it is why it is confusing and i think it'll be

[00:35:47] great eric what is it it's it's kuka arms you sit in a kuka arm and it moves you around and i guess

[00:35:56] you put on goggles and there's some kind of control that you can change the ride i mean it's outside

[00:36:01] it's not it's not like it's not completely like the sum of all thrills which if you uh for the

[00:36:08] listeners who don't know what that was that was an attraction at epcot where you could build a

[00:36:12] roller coaster and then you could sit in a kuka arm which is the type of um type of ride mechanism

[00:36:19] that uh the harry potter hogwarts attraction uses where it moves you around and simulates a

[00:36:28] roller coaster so i'm guessing that's what but it's outside i i think what it does from what i understand

[00:36:35] is it it tony stark who will be voiced by uh robert jr for the first time i'm the frog person um

[00:36:43] which i i'm actually sad that that's gonna go oh because i really enjoy the other guy um i i think

[00:36:53] it's that this ride simulates the flight patterns of other marvel heroes not iron man and not well i would

[00:37:03] imagine iron man's involved but like it's it seems i mean let's be honest most heroes don't fly so i i

[00:37:11] think what it really is is disney was like uh we need another ride we can fit this kind of ride there

[00:37:18] and like okay go do it but which is again i'm fine with that but i'm not i'll ride it i'm not i'm not

[00:37:27] if i fit because that's that's probably oh no um but it it it's just it is a baffling concept to me

[00:37:38] not in a negative way i i realize i have that tendency it's just if someone understands it

[00:37:44] better than me it is very like off the cuff like uh i don't know what do we do with this space over

[00:37:51] here let's just let's just buy 10 kuka arms and put people in them yeah it's a way of doing a c ticket

[00:37:56] that's fun for the whole family yeah that's non-intrusive and and not hiding it like web

[00:38:03] slingers which is a c ticket that wants to be an e yeah it's it's mater's junkyard jamboree it's

[00:38:10] any of those things it's a it's a little thing it looks like something you might it looks like you

[00:38:16] might go around a track and then the arms like pick you up and go it's uh rollicking roadsters it's it's

[00:38:26] just that it's a it's a little square that you can put a ride in that's themed to the land it's it's

[00:38:31] very typical it's going to be really inefficient not going to have these ride capacity sure will oh

[00:38:37] my goodness it's teacups on kuka arms yeah okay oh okay no you know what that makes sense that that

[00:38:44] that's what i needed to get there is it's just it's just this thing it's i guess it's it's it's a flat

[00:38:51] ride but it's a ride system that like exists but doesn't really exist in that format yet and now it

[00:38:59] will yep all right point

[00:39:05] wow how did you make that sound without moving your your face dan that's a good point

[00:39:10] i won't tell you where that sound came from

[00:39:14] um okay so i want to move back to disney world and talk about cars land

[00:39:20] away from those villainous villains let me let me just test out the negative sound for everybody

[00:39:29] away from those vicious villains cars is also racing into the magic kingdom

[00:39:33] in a reimagined section of frontier land or front tire land

[00:39:39] guests will leave radiator springs behind and head off to the wilderness with two new cars attractions

[00:39:45] one that will be an off-road thrilling rally race and a family-friendly attraction

[00:39:49] that even the youngest race is one of disney's

[00:39:53] oh oh um oh no i can still hear you but all i can't hear you though

[00:40:01] oh you're back jimmy's back all right is one of disney's most popular franchises bringing in 1.4

[00:40:07] billion dollars the global box office that's one deadpool in wolverine by the way uh son of a

[00:40:14] mother of this goat what is happening okay that's uh weird i'm gonna stop touching things

[00:40:20] are we not recording anymore no we're we're recording i just really liked that uh that

[00:40:25] euphemism so i love that idea thank you it's not a real point your attention please

[00:40:34] hello hello hello hello um all right so inspiring radiator springs blah blah blah uh as we this is

[00:40:47] from josh zaddy as we develop the next generation of disney experiences we've always we're always

[00:40:53] looking for new ways to tell the stories people love that's like that's like josh that's like disney's

[00:41:00] version of like so yeah your dad went to go get cigarettes we're thrilling cars fans by building

[00:41:09] on this incredibly successful franchise and creating the next chapter in this story okay so i guess two

[00:41:17] things i want to talk about here number one frontier land number two uh rivers of america and number three

[00:41:24] out of three um what is this cars ride going to be concept art shows number one that rivers of america

[00:41:33] is in fact going away how do we feel about that good riddance i am on dan's boat yeah wait really

[00:41:46] get rid of it get rid of get rid of frontier land who cares who cares about frontier land anymore oh i

[00:41:53] see you're saying you're saying just toss frontier land yeah because they don't have a sign well you

[00:42:00] know there's a lot of talk about frontier land and it's what it was it gunslingers bandits native

[00:42:08] americans the frontier which ultimately don't culturally reflect what disney stands for right now right so

[00:42:17] frontier as in the west the wilderness the you know just kind of the unknown is what frontier land is

[00:42:25] being rebranded and that's a different thing that's almost like grizzly like grizzly what what's the

[00:42:32] disneyland grizzly peak grizzly peak yeah grizzly uh or flats yeah condor flats yeah like all that stuff

[00:42:39] it i mean what you can have the untamed wilderness without right like a bunch of you know cowboys with

[00:42:48] guns but what what's interesting in the concept art what is not in this frontier land concept art

[00:42:56] tianus is not in the art so well maybe the internet is only one is that being annexed all right they're

[00:43:05] closing it down so you've got i mean it's it's been it's been confirmed that rivers of america is going

[00:43:10] away i i think i'm with you i i mean personally i don't care um only because i don't ever go on that

[00:43:19] riverboat disney world i don't go on the island i don't really care i so my response is very much

[00:43:26] colored by the park that i call my home it's a weird way to craft that sentence um

[00:43:35] rivers of america disneyland easily one of my favorite places like on in in our reality right

[00:43:42] yeah that's a different story yeah i know i know so it's hard for me it's a different thing

[00:43:47] i know but it's like it's hard for me to not be critical of them getting rid of rivers of america

[00:43:55] and i i reckon i totally i'm embracing that bias i am just saying that it exists right um and i've

[00:44:03] been really baffled by the response from a lot of people within that frame of them kind of going

[00:44:10] like yeah you know i don't really care yeah it's interesting right like like it's fascinating to me

[00:44:16] too like the discourse around this is like man it's going away but if you put kerman on that damn

[00:44:21] island there would be storm in the capital no that's a different one but yeah i'm just saying

[00:44:27] i i agree like it's it's not something that people really engage with there it's it's a park that is

[00:44:34] it's different from disneyland where it's visited by so many people from around the world and they don't

[00:44:41] have a connection to this this era this time this type of ip we don't have westerns anymore

[00:44:50] that really connect with people uh i mean as much as i wanted to uh watch well no i shouldn't say

[00:44:59] that um it's on the south go ahead fine no no no horizons the new kevin costner movie like i didn't i

[00:45:08] didn't go to see it in theaters like but that's like whenever somebody releases a western it's like

[00:45:13] an it's it's an event now like oh wow somebody tried to do a western again

[00:45:20] okay i'm not saying this to be argumentative i'm genuinely curious please why then does disneyland's

[00:45:28] frontier land work because we haven't tried to change it yet i think it's because walt touched it

[00:45:37] ultimately i think it was the original walt drew the island people go on that boat people go on the

[00:45:44] riverboat i people have gotten i've noticed since the reopening a few years ago a lot of people are

[00:45:51] really excited about that boat that i didn't people go on the mark twain no doubt the news

[00:45:56] the canoes are fun like it's a kinetic energy that you want to engage in does not exist at disney world

[00:46:04] at disney world you just want to walk past it and go to big thunder mountain

[00:46:08] that's where it's a dead end it's a dead freaking end currently is it almost like an inversion of

[00:46:14] the size thing because at disneyland it's there's so much so much yeah totally yeah don't get rid of

[00:46:21] that it's a major feature but at disney world it's like why is this here another ride should be here

[00:46:27] it that's what it feels like it really because it's an expanse at disneyland at disney world it's a

[00:46:32] bottleneck yeah and and it doesn't it doesn't continue like it's it is a dead end um so yeah

[00:46:40] i good riddance is not the right way of putting it although i will say a couple of things to counter

[00:46:44] your argument eric that this will now be the only magic kingdom style theme park without a rivers of

[00:46:51] america disneyland paris has rivers of the far west tokyo has one shanghai has one they all have one

[00:47:00] so i hope they do something with water i mean the the cars ride well there's doesn't need water

[00:47:08] it's not it's not going to be well there's going to be geysers there's going to be there's going to

[00:47:14] be west stuff wilderness trees uh what i want to get to is the cars ride will not be radiator springs

[00:47:22] racers but it will be radiator springs racers it's going to be a slot car ride it's going to be some

[00:47:28] different story but you're still going to race at the end it's going to be the same right it's going

[00:47:32] to be test track ish are we sure it's going to be i mean test track they're redoing test track but

[00:47:38] my point is it's still a slot car ride where they're going to have indoor show scenes and they're

[00:47:43] going to be not a race per se at the end but they're going to it's going to be a race it's going

[00:47:48] to be a high speed something or other at the end right it's going to be the same thing there's

[00:47:51] gonna be a reason to go fast exactly just like indiana jones and dinosaur it's the same ride it's

[00:47:57] just not the same right maybe you encounter a monster truck version of like a sasquatch or

[00:48:03] something oh by the way that's an actual story in the cars universe dan um but anyway so then

[00:48:11] there's going to be another second ride is going to be mater's junkyard jamboree it's going to be

[00:48:16] for rollick and roaster it's going to be some kind of flat ride like we talked about with with

[00:48:20] avengers so that's going to be the second thing and i'm here for it i think it's going to be great

[00:48:27] so you're both okay you're both okay with the conceit the frontier like cars go in frontierland

[00:48:35] yes sure okay okay i'm not pushing back on it it's just weird and for the reasons i've already

[00:48:42] addressed anthropomorphic cars in frontierland is dumb under this current frontierland conceit

[00:48:50] yeah but they're going to change the conceit if they call it frontierland i will boycott oh gosh

[00:48:56] but i think what frontierland is going to become is i don't know if they'll rebrand it but it's going

[00:49:03] to be western frontier something like that like it's not going to be frontierland to me and this

[00:49:10] is i'm just being completely honest to me what it feels like is they're saying like f it let's just

[00:49:15] go ahead and make frontierland redneck panderland because dan look at tomorrowland think about

[00:49:21] tomorrowland what is tomorrow not tomorrowland uh which coast it doesn't matter they both have

[00:49:29] they both have a buzz light year yeah what's that what does that have to do with tomorrow

[00:49:35] nothing i don't know i i i think that i think that this get comes comes down to the arguments that we

[00:49:42] frequently get into which is that i'm seeing that they are just kind of giving in to a breaking of the

[00:49:48] standard and going like yeah whatever i mean this the same people let's face it the same people that

[00:49:54] enjoy country bridge and we're probably gonna enjoy cars right like it's it's it seems cynical to me um

[00:50:00] probably and i think that also on top of it it's like you have you could build the it doesn't have to

[00:50:10] why is this why do they why do they have so much space if they're not going to use it

[00:50:14] like you could put a legit cars land into maybe not magic kingdom specifically i was gonna say

[00:50:23] directly connected to frontierland but like you could you could have it somewhere on property um

[00:50:32] but where where does it make sense no that's not my job honestly that's not my job but and

[00:50:38] i mean hollywood studios would they don't have room there either we'll get to that yeah it kind

[00:50:44] of feels like a place for a pixar thing but but at the same time why are we like laying back and

[00:50:51] sitting back and going like well they kind of box themselves in even though they have all this

[00:50:57] expanse of space that they intended to use at some point well yeah i guess they can't do it because

[00:51:03] they built the the cooling plant over there it's like well yeah you've messed up you know maybe i

[00:51:11] think dan what my macro point which i'm going to get to now is this is well you know i'm going to save

[00:51:18] my point not not like winning point but my my overall argument for what they're doing and why

[00:51:23] well i think what this point said to for me is that and i don't know if this is necessarily a bad

[00:51:30] thing this could actually end up being i think a smart move it's just hard for me to accept mainly

[00:51:37] because of the coast i'm on and my expectations i think that they might be coming to a place where

[00:51:43] they're like people don't really come here for like magic in the sense that we usually talk about it

[00:51:50] they're just here for a vacation and an experience and to see the characters they love dan what is

[00:51:56] what what does cars have to do with california adventure oh i mean it fits though that does it

[00:52:04] well it doesn't feel my point is it doesn't feel shoehorned in that and what what does anything have

[00:52:09] to do with california in that park right now well that's i think we're making the same argument right

[00:52:14] what does it have to do with the frontier it's west i i you my my the point that i'm trying to make

[00:52:20] that i was trying to make that i guess i wasn't making well is that i think disney might be at a

[00:52:26] place with disney world uh where they're just like people don't really come here for the disney

[00:52:32] they come here for the the brand of disney they don't come here for the expectation of disney

[00:52:37] that's true they come here because it's really just a fancy chucky cheese so let's well it's

[00:52:42] immersive it's the stories they love the characters they love that's exactly why they come there yes

[00:52:47] right but like there's also this sort of like i i i i feel like they are almost like unburdening

[00:52:55] themselves from the coconut reference there they're unburdening themselves of the expectation

[00:53:02] that they need to they need to still have of course they're still going to have a standard but they can

[00:53:11] kind of go yeah i mean maybe maybe not so much and i think i think that's also a result of

[00:53:17] and this is partially why i brought it up i think that epic universe is going to water down those

[00:53:24] expectations and i think maybe i mean it's almost like why try as hard that see that seems to be the

[00:53:32] that seems to be what i'm getting from those changes on that coast which is sort of like a yeah i mean we

[00:53:39] could figure out a way but no i mean no one really goes on tom sawyer's island even though it's the

[00:53:45] better tom sawyer's island like by design as we declared yeah you know like i think i think it's

[00:53:51] it's more just like yeah why keep fighting this fight let's just give the people what they think

[00:53:56] they want which also goes to a point that i find a we'll get to it let's move on well it's in this

[00:54:06] particular case it started with tianis that doesn't make any sense in frontier land as long

[00:54:11] as it doesn't make sense in frontier land let's just change the whole thing maybe i'm i'm on board

[00:54:16] with that and i'm going to move us forward but i'm going because i'm the judge i'm going to make a

[00:54:21] statement that uh neither of you can respond to um or listen to uh please plug your ears um

[00:54:28] la la la

[00:54:33] uh but ultimately this is this is the time this is finally it we are we have finally arrived at a time

[00:54:43] when we can break one of the rules when we can say club

[00:54:51] yes yeah we can now talk about fight club okay and uh we can talk about how um walt disney probably

[00:54:59] wouldn't probably would have changed multiple lands at this point agreed this is this is a man who was

[00:55:07] constantly pushing things forward he scrapped entire lands and completely redid them look at

[00:55:12] tomorrowland we're in the the tomorrowland situation we're in now because everybody went ah oh oh he

[00:55:19] like redid it twice i don't know what else to do with it get rid of a land do something completely

[00:55:27] new that people actually want people want to engage with the cars franchise in the magic kingdom in

[00:55:34] walt disney world other than this weird lightning mcqueen meet and greet in hollywood studios do

[00:55:41] something different get rid of a land do it i know what does that mean on i i know i know

[00:55:49] we need to move on but i want to add something to this that has been itching in the back of my mind

[00:55:53] and it's coming up now which is i think that frontierland at disney world has been kind of just

[00:55:58] left to be whatever for a very long time oh yeah and whereas like at disneyland it's had it has had to

[00:56:07] have been updated several times because of other things like not so much like let's update frontierland

[00:56:12] itself but oh no now we have a galaxy z now we have a fantastic now we have this so like they've had to

[00:56:17] kind of like reimagine it and keep it fresh over and over again where at disney world it's just like

[00:56:22] i don't know what i mean it got a parade goes through here you know and i think that they they may have

[00:56:33] kind of through that apathy gotten to this point which where i think a lot of people have followed them

[00:56:39] where it's just like yeah i mean sure the rivers of america used to mean something to some people but

[00:56:45] it really doesn't anymore so whatever yeah and and i think i've said it a hundred times dan and eric's

[00:56:52] right if cars if the cars franchise was a disney ip in 1955 cars would be probably in frontierland

[00:57:01] i agree well i don't know i'm just saying it would be somewhere it'd be somewhere frontierland

[00:57:07] fits better than most other places just like buzz lightyear why is it because it's dirty i mean

[00:57:14] let's let's because it's west because it's rocky right it's utah it's it's new mexico whatever

[00:57:21] route 66 anywhere not well not in frontierland

[00:57:29] i'm just saying it all right i'm just saying it doesn't have to be that you know and i and i and

[00:57:33] i do think that there's some cynicism behind why it's that okay and i think i'm going to go back to

[00:57:37] the point i was going to make before we move on is that what disney has done at disney world is they

[00:57:43] have built a new theme park without building a fifth gate

[00:57:50] this land that land this land that land this land they've built they're building over the next five

[00:57:57] years a new theme park without building a new theme park i really like that idea it's not just

[00:58:04] we added tron it's yeah it's we're changing this entire park i like lands is a theme park okay i

[00:58:12] get that but at the same time it's like do your effing job make it but dan we've been talking about

[00:58:21] this for years i know there's no such thing as theming anymore there's no cohesive theme park

[00:58:26] anymore i and i still argue disneyland is no longer a cohesive theme park more so than any of the

[00:58:33] other ones yeah but when you start putting buzz light you're in tomorrowland and you put star wars

[00:58:39] at disneyland it's just it's it there's no such thing as a cohesive theme park anymore i guess i guess

[00:58:45] for me it's more just like try versus give up and i feel like they're giving up perhaps but they gave

[00:58:52] up when they put tiana's in frontier land maybe eric move us along all right let's move us along yeah

[00:58:58] i i i let's talk about how i disagree with dan but um i think this is a major a this is a bold move

[00:59:07] this is huge i don't you're not allowed to talk about it anymore because i already i want to clarify

[00:59:12] i don't think it's a disagreement as much as it is you what are you expecting what's your starting

[00:59:18] point my starting point is i expect more that's it whether i should or not okay that's it all right

[00:59:27] i think i i get where you're looking with that all right give us a disneyland thing dan uh but hey

[00:59:34] before we do that let's listen to let's listen to a quick ad from our sponsors pants

[00:59:43] hi i'm everybody has to wear pants oh sorry go ahead uh sorry dan pants read for this

[00:59:50] hey there tim pants here for pants have you ever wandered around the the your domicile or the city

[00:59:57] that you live in and people have noticed that your junk is hanging out well let me interest you in

[01:00:03] pants that's that's right i'm tim pants the creator of pants you could have so many pants we even have

[01:00:10] short pants we have long pants we have pants that you can put on your dog go get pants today i'm tim

[01:00:27] pants uh dan tell us about disneyland keeps you from being naked on the bottom part of your body

[01:00:34] pants pants okay uh uh so yeah we still have uh rivers of america which is great uh speaking of uh

[01:00:46] walt disney and what he would have done uh we're gonna talk about tiana's bayou adventure which is

[01:00:55] november 15th nice subversion of expectations

[01:00:59] what a roller coaster of a sentence that was

[01:01:07] um yeah so she has my adventure you may have heard about it it's it's a thing the internet loves it

[01:01:13] it's gonna happen also what's gonna happen that the internet loves and they have very strong opinions

[01:01:19] about is walt disney himself will become a wait wait are you taking two things in this one statement

[01:01:26] tiana's coming come on yeah okay okay yeah um so yeah walt disney is going to beat up abraham lincoln

[01:01:35] in a live show with two robots

[01:01:39] and walt disney will will poke the hole in lincoln's head and be like yeah he did it no uh

[01:01:47] sorry i got carried away uh well i'm imagining the two robots fighting and i'd really like to say it

[01:01:54] they are back to back right uh it's like railer duel uh walt disney is gonna be at the uh great

[01:02:03] most mr lincoln slash mr disney theater where he's gonna be very charming and sit on a stool probably

[01:02:11] stand up and maybe wave at you um and no one really knows what it will be other than like

[01:02:18] half of the family seems to like it the other half seems to not like it is is this the best walt disney

[01:02:26] we what which which era of walt disney would you have chosen

[01:02:31] oh

[01:02:34] uh world's fair era okay i think that's what we're gonna get it's gonna be with the support of the

[01:02:41] disney family museum and the archives it's gonna be a recreation of his office it's gonna be him

[01:02:47] sitting on his desk and him explaining the idea of disneyland it's gonna be snippets of interviews

[01:02:52] from you know the one about daddy daughter day it's gonna be about it's gonna be him selling

[01:02:58] disneyland from his office circa 1950s to us i i agree i think this is the best walt disney we could

[01:03:07] have asked for it's not the cocky walt disney from like snow white like suck it everybody i made a

[01:03:17] million dollars yeah i think um there's a lot that they could do wrong but i feel like they won't

[01:03:25] you know um i think i think this era of of disney i can trust with this maybe 20 years ago or so

[01:03:36] i'd be like oh he's gonna just sell oranges or something um i i do wonder i mean okay

[01:03:48] people are talking about there being like some ethical problem there but then at the same time

[01:03:52] this is the guy yeah i know this is a guy that did the same thing to abe lincoln i i i guess it's like

[01:03:59] if this is a weird crossing of a line for some people and i don't know i i i know how i could

[01:04:07] feel that way but i don't know if i do does that make sense yeah i i get it you feel like maybe

[01:04:14] maybe there's there's something in the back of your brain where you're like this is

[01:04:20] doing this seems wrong but ultimately definitely like in the 90s or so this would have felt wrong

[01:04:28] agreed but i think that enough time i think yeah there's been enough time and some of the uh i think

[01:04:34] it was brickie he was on youtube he was talking about how like you know if we think about it a lot

[01:04:41] of the people who come to disneyland who aren't regulars they don't really even know that he's a real

[01:04:46] person and if you're gonna have that if you're gonna introduce that connection to the brand if

[01:04:53] you're gonna reintroduce it it needs to be at disneyland because it's his park right and at this

[01:04:59] also like there is the well i mean if he did it to lincoln then he's probably okay with it happening to

[01:05:05] himself i would agree and i think that he also brought up a point that i found really interesting

[01:05:11] and this also talks he also relates this to tomorrowland and why we're not seeing anything

[01:05:16] yet is that he is speculating and i'm not sure if i agree i think i might that they're starting to play

[01:05:25] with the idea of you know now that we were in this era of it has to be ip or they can't do anything with

[01:05:31] it i think they might be starting to brand disneyland and walt disney himself as ip

[01:05:40] yeah yeah walt disney is the ultimate disney ip right and i think that disneyland is is starting

[01:05:46] to get smart about it where it's like okay well and they they did this with the disneyland hotel they

[01:05:52] made a hotel themed to disneyland itself um i think that if we're in this era which seems to be

[01:06:00] and i think that the ip problem i understand that ip exists and that we're going to use it i don't

[01:06:06] disagree with you jimmy about like if cars exist and all that stuff i just feel like it can be an all

[01:06:12] it can be too all or nothing where we start like rejecting possibly good ideas um and the disney parks

[01:06:20] first in the in the past have been really good at giving people that stuff that they don't know that

[01:06:26] they want yet and i feel like we're missing out on that but anyway as that aside it's possible that

[01:06:33] they are rebranding disneyland slowly to be its own ip which means and this is the connection to

[01:06:40] tomorrowland that we then once all of the expansion stuff happens they shut down tomorrowland and they

[01:06:49] bring people they bring back old tomorrowland as it's as it's the ip is this is tomorrowland

[01:06:56] right it's it's disneyland's tomorrowland right as opposed to this is a look into the future wow

[01:07:02] i like it yeah a couple things i like to say is the disneyland hotel historically was themed to

[01:07:10] disneyland in the 50s when it was closed mondays and tuesdays they had a 18 hole miniature golf course

[01:07:16] where you could hit a ball into the castle and you could do whatever that there was there was a

[01:07:20] whole disneyland themed mini golf course right so it's not unprecedented but you're right

[01:07:24] i think that walt disney as a statue fits really well at epcot fits really well at the magic kingdom

[01:07:32] does walt disney as an animatronic would be lost at disney no one would care yeah no one would care

[01:07:37] right i think it fits really well in the opera house it fits really well as a back-to-back to lincoln

[01:07:43] i think walt disney as a entrepreneur enterprising young individual was a huge fan of abraham lincoln

[01:07:51] and made this new technology to fit his his hero if you will and you know 60 80 years later whatever it

[01:08:01] was uh an enterprising young whatever is paying an homage to their hero which is an individual walt

[01:08:09] disney with the new version of that technology it is 100 something that walt disney would do

[01:08:15] and if you remember in the 1960s when walt did it with abraham lincoln it was blasphemy i was alive

[01:08:22] then well um it was blasphemy for a lot of people like how could you do this to this icon so like like

[01:08:30] frontier land like anything we're going to talk about it's going to offend somebody for some reason

[01:08:35] right but i think that truly walt would have done this and i do want to be i do want to be sensitive to

[01:08:42] you know people in the family that they feel that it's a you know betrayal or an invasion or whatever

[01:08:48] like that i i get that that that's unfortunate um however as i that's not necessarily my concern

[01:08:56] but as somebody who likes the stuff um i think it could serve and actually someone who likes the stuff

[01:09:05] and enjoys taking people who don't necessarily understand what this is it could end up being a

[01:09:11] really good shorthand for people to go like oh that's why main street is like this that's why

[01:09:17] we still have rivers of america that's why the tiki room exists that's why these all these weird

[01:09:22] nuances of disneyland they're like okay why the hell is this still here i think that if you have

[01:09:30] that framing you could appreciate it a lot more and i think which is why i hope they can have it open

[01:09:37] during uh the first half hour that main street is open before rope drop sure i agree that's a good

[01:09:45] idea and i think that that what disney needs to do in an era where it's so easy to get around the world

[01:09:52] where it wasn't in the 50s and 60s that disney world and disneyland need to have their own identity

[01:09:58] yeah and maybe this is towards that they need to have their own identity yeah you know you don't

[01:10:03] need to build identical things in each place because you can get back and forth really easily ryan what

[01:10:08] do you think oh sorry wrong show i i would like to say that this is my biggest takeaway from d23 is that

[01:10:17] nothing was they didn't announce anything that was we're just going to take this thing from here and put

[01:10:23] it over there too everything was distinct that's true i mean it may be the same ride system or

[01:10:28] whatever but right right right but we're doing something different yeah yeah hong kong is getting

[01:10:34] a tower of terror knockoff but it's gonna be so cool exactly it's gonna be awesome and this is

[01:10:42] this is what we need we need something a little bit different and i'm not just talking about it

[01:10:47] because of this show where we want to compare and contrast things like well i think i think too they

[01:10:54] might be setting up this is going to sound more arrogant than i intended to i think they are

[01:11:01] setting it up to where it's like okay disneyland is actually special and there are reasons why it's

[01:11:08] special and there are reasons why we won't touch certain things there and you you all need to

[01:11:14] understand why it's special and why it is the way it is and that's actually a total positive that's why

[01:11:20] the castle is smaller all of these things that like have been perceived as issues in the past they're

[01:11:26] kind of going like no we're not going to apologize for that it is this way because it needs to be this

[01:11:31] way for these reasons it's got an identity and i think this is and as such encapsulation of that

[01:11:37] as such i think they're they're starting to go in a direction of going like no this is actually

[01:11:42] the premium park this is the special experience this is the premium park and that's why we don't

[01:11:47] have any any economy hotels not because of the lack of space of course but because it's a premium

[01:11:54] experience in general if you just want off the shelf disney i'm going to go meet the characters

[01:12:00] and see the ip experience disney world's over there dan i think the word you're trying to pronounce

[01:12:07] is supreme and um that's that's a whole thing uh jimmy how about uh something happening at walt

[01:12:15] disney world let's keep just something quick something that's tangible something that's going

[01:12:19] to happen soon like waltz by the way dan do you like waltz animatronic do you like this show

[01:12:27] i haven't seen it i mean i think that i mean i'm excited about it uh excited mostly out of curiosity

[01:12:35] i'm not gonna i i guess i'm not gonna go in finding reasons to dislike it i'm gonna go in

[01:12:41] finding reasons to like it and hoping that i find them as a judge there you go i agree with you

[01:12:49] uh disney starlight summer 2025 it's a brand new nighttime parade uh disney satellite will debut at

[01:12:57] magic kingdom in summer of 2025 using the latest technology and some pixie dust from the blue fairy

[01:13:02] the parade will feature characters from peter pan frozen in kanto and more i'm excited about it i

[01:13:07] don't like parades about time my god i'm excited about it yeah i know spectral magic was a big deal

[01:13:13] uh nighttime parade is long overdue at magic kingdom and i don't think it takes anything away

[01:13:19] it just adds the end steve tyler what do you think i love that idea there you go he's on board

[01:13:25] i was sad and disappointed when that wasn't followed up by and we're gonna have paint the

[01:13:31] night at disneyland yay um but you know whatever just real quick one more thing just in the spirit of

[01:13:39] uh dan's tiana um announcement is that test track 3.0 uh opening 2025 reimagining test track open 2025

[01:13:47] new show scenes and technology imagineers and teams from chevrolet have looked back at the original

[01:13:53] world of motion to bring that spirit of optimism to this iconic attraction so tech tech test track

[01:14:00] 3.0 coming 2025 hooray i love that idea steve likes it too and uh speaking of uh coming i don't know 2025

[01:14:11] uh let's move on we're gonna get uh avatar land officially at disney's california adventure i think

[01:14:19] it's gonna change i think it's gonna i think that one of i think that the third gate that they are yet

[01:14:25] to announce is going to be avatar in itself but that's a that's a totally different speculation uh

[01:14:31] they're gonna have avatar stuff at supposedly at disney's california adventure aka dca uh looks like

[01:14:39] it's probably gonna be a kind of i don't want to say reskin i think it's gonna be seems like it's

[01:14:45] gonna be based on the pirates right it's the shanghai one shanghai one yeah which they don't have

[01:14:50] room for in the existing park exactly um i don't see it fitting in the expansion area not only in the

[01:15:01] like space sense but like like i can i can kind of see where that goes but i i really do think it's

[01:15:08] going to be a third gate thing i think the third gate is going to be all avatar all the time i said it

[01:15:14] before i'll say it again i don't think they're gonna i don't think they're having a third gate

[01:15:18] people keep talking about when they announce what they're going to do with disneyland forward

[01:15:23] this is disneyland forward yeah bits and pieces it's it's still dca they're going to figure out a

[01:15:30] way to get it underneath uh western west drive whatever this is this is disneyland forward

[01:15:38] maybe i i just i that assumes that toy story parking lot is going to remain toy story parking

[01:15:46] lot and i don't see that well no it won't but i just mean like disneyland forward won't be its

[01:15:52] whole thing it the rezoned part of the resort will include

[01:16:02] coco will include avatar yeah maybe i'm that this is my speculation i i'm just saying that

[01:16:10] avatar land is going to be at the parking lot what in forgive me guys what's it called the the one

[01:16:16] that's just south of um pixar pier hotel pixar place oh oh the simba

[01:16:24] whatever that yeah whatever that parking lot is going to be or coco well i mean you have well it

[01:16:32] won't be there's room for more than just a coco yeah probably i'm just thinking that avatar land

[01:16:39] in that shanghai pirates ride will be across the street and they haven't announced anything

[01:16:46] officially across any streets it's just they don't have to right it's been rezoned they can do it i

[01:16:55] look i'm not saying that like i think it would be a bad idea to put it there i think that sure why not

[01:17:01] i'm just i would let me put it another way i would love it if this became the third gate

[01:17:06] but and i believe that there will be one i understand that i might be wrong um

[01:17:15] a are we allowed to talk about coco because it just came up you might as well go for it uh so we're

[01:17:21] doing a coco boat ride that is absolutely not going to be anything like grand fiesta tour um and

[01:17:28] it's going to be i believe uh connected to the the part of the park that has um uh viva navidad in it

[01:17:41] and not only because it will fit there but because i know how much disney loves putting things of

[01:17:48] vaguely similar ethnicity paradise gardens right right yeah paradise gardens yeah so paradise gardens

[01:17:54] is right next to pixar pier coco fits right there right it makes sense for that to go there there's

[01:17:58] not enough geography for a show building it's a little tiny yeah well but i mean we're also dealing

[01:18:05] with the idea that right across the street is stuff that they have place to build you know we don't it's

[01:18:11] again it's not our job to figure out how they will do the things because we're not imagineers we're not

[01:18:17] city planners we're not engineers i'm just thinking it would make a lot of sense to have like the entrance

[01:18:23] over there and the show building on the other side or whatever you know and i think that's what i'm

[01:18:29] saying except i was saying it about avatar right well right but what i'm pointing out is the coco ride

[01:18:37] isn't going to take up all that space right dan will they update your favorite bathroom they have to

[01:18:47] never never it's it's they it's too special it's the route 66 bathroom back there it would be like

[01:18:54] destroying the rivers of america at disneyland they they know they know how much it means to us

[01:19:00] i actually believe that that that bathroom is an inside joke for some people in imagineering where

[01:19:06] they're just like nah never touch it gotta leave it yeah they talked about it on uh uh podcast the ride

[01:19:11] the other day really yeah it was like a revelation to them wow really yeah no i really i really do think

[01:19:18] that that it i mean think about it if you were in imagineering or whatever and like i would absolutely

[01:19:24] just be like i'm not touching that unless they tell me to because let's just leave it a little

[01:19:30] slice of the 90s even though this is not a 90s park so yeah uh coco it's good yeah it's fine

[01:19:39] you know what coco is and yeah i mean of course i'm sure everyone is wondering where is encanto gonna go

[01:19:46] in relationship to coco because that's how they yeah and can't go into walt disney world

[01:19:53] that's right it's going to be in relation it's going to be about as far apart right as the why would

[01:19:59] they okay listener i know what i'm doing here go with me on the irony here why would they have the

[01:20:04] two mexican things in different places guys um so do you think that a coco ride will be

[01:20:15] will it be some version of the mexico boat ride will it be closer to why wouldn't it be you know like

[01:20:25] would you think it'll be closer to the spirit of uh the flight of passage that the um navi river journey

[01:20:32] i think it's experiencing a thing nothing goes wrong i think that yeah because how how would you have

[01:20:40] something go wrong with that like we're gonna re-traumatize the audience with the storyline

[01:20:45] you know like it's i think it's gonna just be hey this is a thing why why not let this thing be a

[01:20:51] happy thing and i'm not i'm not saying it in a cynical sense of like grand fiesta tour i think

[01:20:57] that they're probably gonna say like i mean i think the thinking is like they're like yeah what if we did

[01:21:02] this okay what if we added coco okay now how can we actually incorporate that in a way that makes

[01:21:07] sense i don't i don't think it's just gonna be like yeah whatever give them more of the stuff

[01:21:11] i think it feels like a celebration yeah opportunity yeah it's not a you're right it's not a rehashing of

[01:21:17] the movie which i mean when it comes down to it coco as a as a as a film like wasn't

[01:21:28] yeah there was there's a little bit of drama as far as it like ernesto being not his father and being

[01:21:37] a bad guy but it really the emotional core of the movie that's what's that's what's more devastating

[01:21:46] i guess yeah yeah that's the thing we don't need to all walk out sobbing uncontrollably um i mean

[01:21:52] right i mean like if we do fine but um i i just and i and again i'm not not being i'm not trying to

[01:22:01] be a jerk when i say i think that it would be natural probably for someone to go like okay so

[01:22:07] we're gonna do a coco boat ride what's the starting point there like well i don't know how much like

[01:22:12] grand fiesta tour should we make it should we not make it because it is i mean there there are clear

[01:22:17] similarities there at the boat ride there's this and there's that and then it's like yeah okay well

[01:22:22] actually we could just kind of like have it be that but let's make it coco you know jimmy will they

[01:22:27] include a uh a section much like grand fiesta tour with uh small world figures um i think that that

[01:22:39] won't be where they go with it no no i don't think so it would be it would be the land of the dead right

[01:22:44] right yeah that's where you would say of the dead i think maybe what'll happen is that this will be

[01:22:49] miguel going back to visit all of his ancestors it won't be a what they call a book report ride

[01:22:55] it'll be celebrating the day of the dead all year round and it'll be miguel going back to visit all

[01:23:02] the ancestors that's what the ride will be love it i think that's fantastic and just have a drop

[01:23:10] yes if they have the will that drop be how we get across the street yes okay all right that's my

[01:23:17] theory jimmy tell us about encanto i guess

[01:23:21] mexico

[01:23:26] esperanza encanto and the exciting adventures of indiana jones coming 2027

[01:23:33] goodbye dinoland usa welcome tropical americas this is where i really believe that they're actually

[01:23:39] starting yeah like they actually have trucks ready to start trucks they've had trailers back there

[01:23:45] for a while now after crossing over the bridge from discovery island you'll encounter pueblo esperanza

[01:23:52] which translates to village of hope which will be home to two signature attractions uh set to break

[01:23:59] down great later this year break ground later this year to open in 2027 this is the breakdown

[01:24:05] they do yeah it will also feature a large fountain in the center of the village one of the largest

[01:24:12] quick service restaurants at disney world and a carousel featuring beloved disney animals so here

[01:24:18] we get a carousel which is like lovingly handcrafted by local artisan of just disney characters i'm not

[01:24:25] sure if they're going to try to incorporate just yeah i don't know i don't know if it's going to be

[01:24:30] winnie the pooh or if it's just going to be tropical americas themed i mean i've heard about like

[01:24:36] jungle book characters yeah i suspect poncho and you know panchito and all that stuff will be there

[01:24:41] yeah it's in the style of what alabrije is that the yeah right so it's a carousel they have one

[01:24:47] there now it's the the the triceratops spin right probably be in the same general vicinity

[01:24:54] uh but then they're gonna have casita which i'm excited about step inside family madrigal's casita

[01:25:00] the first ever encanto inspired ride takes place with antonio after he just received his gift

[01:25:05] so maribel's worst day and his room has just turned into a rainforest uh join antonio as he

[01:25:14] explores his new room as you may bump into other family members the casita will be the show building

[01:25:20] or the the facade will be interact interactive it'll be alive windows will shutter things will

[01:25:28] happen it'll be kinetic energy like you know the wicked queen coming out of snow white on steroids you

[01:25:34] know things will be happening in the in that house she's jacked when she does that yeah um but but

[01:25:41] it'll be fun kinetic energy it'll be a fun uh boat ride through or no it's going to be more of a

[01:25:48] omni mover i think are there animals it's animal kingdom there are animals that is his gift is to be

[01:25:56] able to talk to animals right um i think it's gonna be a mystic manner and i'm not saying that in a

[01:26:02] critical way i agree that's that's the same theory i subscribe to i like that same basic elements that

[01:26:08] that sort of thing i think dalin talked about that um but yeah i think so i don't know what you're

[01:26:13] talking about so i say i'm gonna move a trackless ride system something like that but there will be

[01:26:19] animals that is his gift that's how they shoehorn that thing into animal kingdom and then get ready

[01:26:24] for a new indie adventure indiana jones has heard rumors of a mythical creature deep in the

[01:26:30] ancient mayan temple so of course he wants to explore it the ride will feature an original story

[01:26:36] not confirmed snakes the temple of maya

[01:26:42] that's right

[01:26:45] and everything the pre-show is the same sala is there and you don't look at his lips

[01:26:53] if you look at his lips you're in trouble

[01:27:01] i like that yes i like that a lot uh but yeah it seems that okay it's gonna be in phases uh dinosaur

[01:27:10] is gonna be the last to close i mean dino land's already effectively shut down they're gonna take

[01:27:15] away the boneyard i don't know what they're gonna do about that having a kids interactive area that

[01:27:19] would be really fun you gotta do something they do something uh but the casita were really fun

[01:27:24] i could see them doing something with the casita like the front part maybe have the kids play along

[01:27:29] with like they may be a play area there yeah yeah give them coffee like that one kid or they just

[01:27:35] look at each other that's right that one kid um but i'm excited about it it's gonna be good

[01:27:41] it's opening 2027 they're breaking ground it's it's a thing all right steve tyler agrees

[01:27:46] i love that idea dan what else you got i don't know that i love dinosaur going away

[01:27:56] i mean huh nobody cares nobody cares nobody cares but one of the things that they had

[01:28:02] one of the things that dinosaur has on nd is it's actually scary and i hope that they can maintain

[01:28:10] that is i guess the main point they can just leave all the lights off like they do now yeah just don't

[01:28:17] pay the electricity that's right just shut it i i hear a voice that doesn't sound anything like

[01:28:22] harrison ford that must be indiana jones hey i'm a dinosaur now um let's see what else do we have oh

[01:28:29] the infinity defense um which is gonna be a thing let's see what they have previously announced

[01:28:36] multiverse attraction starring king thanos opening with avengers campus at california which will be

[01:28:40] called avengers infinity defense the attraction will transport riders to wakanda new york city

[01:28:46] and asgard and construction begins in 2025 that is according to our friends at attractions magazine

[01:28:51] don't forget to subscribe today to attractions magazine um i i don't know i mean look i don't care

[01:29:03] about marvel anymore i just i'm just being honest marvel uh what's that oh i said neither is marvel it

[01:29:14] would seem yeah i mean i guess the speculation is it's going to be similar to the spider-man

[01:29:23] ride experience at universal yeah the guy who created that experience is scott trowbridge and

[01:29:30] he's in charge of this ride too yeah there you go so i mean hopefully like real fire and stuff that'd

[01:29:35] be really cool um i would imagine 3d glasses are going to probably be involved um so it's like screen

[01:29:44] ride yeah it's a it's a screen it's a screen ride that is also a ride which is i'm not opposed to

[01:29:51] spider-man transformers yeah uh i think it'll it'll be interesting to i mean they have a similar

[01:29:58] thing with peter pan in another another park i forget where it's okay right tokyo yeah it's okay

[01:30:06] yeah um so i don't know i i think probably net positive i don't see how they screw this up but

[01:30:13] then again they can um i hope it's not too fuster clucky like uh web slingers is like when i read the

[01:30:27] whole like you're gonna go here and here and here i'm like that's a lot and it kind of gonna be

[01:30:33] just like you do with spider-man if you recall you kind of go from different parts of the city you get

[01:30:39] you get zapped and transported i think is what's going to happen you're going to go through tony

[01:30:43] stark's um i forget what it's called that little contraption that the time warp thing yeah so you it's the

[01:30:50] um anyway you're gonna get through that obviously if there's king thanos you've got to go somewhere

[01:30:57] yeah in the multiverse yeah it's a multiverse that we're kind of abandoning anyway but yeah yeah but it

[01:31:04] also frees up a lot of evolutions of story in different locations because it is screen-based

[01:31:10] all right everybody get

[01:31:12] but it will be interesting to see how disney handles that ride system yeah because universal is

[01:31:18] is is always something spitting on you there's a screen and there's fire like that's that's what it

[01:31:24] is there's fire there's screens and there's water like i'm saying they do i'm saying honestly disney

[01:31:30] you know i understand you're in competition in some sense why not use the the good ideas

[01:31:38] you know instead of like forcing yourself to make bad ideas in response to the good ideas just

[01:31:46] have the real fire have the thing have the have the dogs it's been a while since the dog has sneezed

[01:31:51] on me right like it's true let's bring it back uh yeah i mean they don't have a lot of space i think

[01:31:58] it it's it's a it'll be a good it'll be a good ride yeah they have just enough space and eric you

[01:32:05] said something before uh avengers campus currently has two attractions and they will now have four

[01:32:10] what's the what's the non-web guardians mission breakout is oh that's right oh that one the

[01:32:17] one that people like okay it was gerrymandered gerrymandered attraction uh so sorry sorry fans

[01:32:26] speaking of which gerrymandering well there's been a lot of that so far in this conversation

[01:32:35] um monsters inc land all right there is we got so places the i have an unrelated idea to that okay

[01:32:46] i just want to say so when you see something in a movie that makes you think let's make a ride

[01:32:55] where you're doing that thing you could also just make a ride that captures the feeling of that scene

[01:33:01] rather than making it about that scene just a straight thought i had what's the point oh he's

[01:33:08] just talking about uh spider-man yeah yeah um if you look at a geographical map of hollywood

[01:33:19] studios you are somewhat landlocked by roads but there is also a very large parking lot that is never full

[01:33:29] very large the skyliner helps with a lot of traffic buses obviously you could walk from the epcot resort

[01:33:38] area the friendships etc the parking lot is never full there's a lot of geography in that parking lot

[01:33:46] to expand the size of galaxy's edge you have about 13 to 15 acres of parking lot that would not be missed

[01:33:53] you could expand beyond monsters inc so monsters inc based on the concept art and an inverted roller coaster

[01:34:05] very first disney built inverted roller coaster uh suspended excuse me suspended roller coaster there

[01:34:12] you go okay uh through the the door thing they've been talking about for 20 years

[01:34:17] um could not fit in the animation courtyard it could not fit in the launch bay area it just couldn't fit

[01:34:25] there even if you ripped out the old animation building or the uh staff parking garage yes there's a lot of

[01:34:34] support buildings you could put that's correct okay uh you could get rid of the cars thing there's land

[01:34:39] back there uh it doesn't really fit in the hollywood thing nobody to the point about the cars thing so far

[01:34:45] nobody cares about theming anymore anyway uh all money is going on the uh muppets so you could keep the

[01:34:55] muppets in the muppets courtyard and expand into the parking lot to have its own monsters land there have

[01:35:02] been letters there have been responses to letters saying you know walt disney said disneyland on me to

[01:35:07] never be complete blah blah blah we we take our you know our our loyal fans into account but sometimes

[01:35:16] we disappoint them uh you don't i mean there's no room for monsters land in just muppets courtyard

[01:35:25] anyway right unless you took out star tours and muppets land you could fit this land in there

[01:35:34] knowing that there's no reason for star tours to be there anymore um they're the muppets thing yes

[01:35:42] it's beloved it was jim henson's last thing i get it but nobody goes it's it's mostly empty

[01:35:50] email address again

[01:35:53] no i jason it ears up that's right i find it interesting yeah it it wouldn't be the end of the

[01:36:02] world if if we lost muppets 3d that's not what i've heard well star tours is i mean why why remove two

[01:36:11] attractions to put in one i think why remove any if you just expand out in the parking lot that's fair

[01:36:18] as well there's no space there's no space at disney world well there's a lot of parking you have to get

[01:36:25] rid of something um i don't so i think what will end up happening is they're going to expand into the

[01:36:32] parking lot period okay whether they sacrifice muppets or not remains to be seen um but muppets

[01:36:40] or excuse me monsters in clan is going to be cool uh suspended roller coaster meet the characters

[01:36:46] monstropolis disney does a really good job at uh you know immersive theming environments etc it's

[01:36:52] going to be fun uh it is tentatively uh project will begin in 2025 so we will know very quickly

[01:37:00] whether or not muppets is on the chopping block but that's again nobody goes um uh considering that

[01:37:08] we've never uh that that you two were uh i'm just gonna say it you're far too lazy to determine which

[01:37:15] star tours was better uh which which one was supreme um i i can't i i mean i'd like to cast my vote and

[01:37:25] say that uh the hollywood studios version is supreme and um that means it it might deserve a little bit

[01:37:32] of extra protection but i don't know um they still need you're gonna keep star tours connected to

[01:37:42] galaxy's edge no they're not gonna do it i i think that they i think they're going to keep it there

[01:37:47] just to spite us because that's what they do and i think that i i also think that they're gonna keep

[01:37:54] pizza rizzo and get rid of muppet vision 3d oh my god can you imagine oh no that would be the worst

[01:38:01] crime of all the rest of the area they're gonna do it um mama melrose is yeah i have a perfect tie-in

[01:38:09] perfect tie-in dan what is the character's name of that little muppet who's just like crazy and he's

[01:38:19] like animal animal damn it i thought his name was monster never mind that would work but i was gonna

[01:38:27] say they could tie in animal monsters they they could they could seamlessly blend the two there's a way to do

[01:38:35] it i agree i think that so i don't disagree with any of it i don't really care to be honest about a

[01:38:41] lot of disney world but i also think that like i don't know why you have this muppet muppets property

[01:38:49] and like continue to actively not do anything with it like that's that's fair the last thing that they

[01:38:57] did that was interesting was in the magic kingdom well to be fair the last thing they did with it was

[01:39:01] interesting was the documentary that ron howard directed but that was really more of a jim henson

[01:39:06] thing than anything and i think it kind of like i think it kind of goes to maybe the laziness of the

[01:39:14] creative not creative team the executive team that then gives the creative team their orders which is

[01:39:20] like you have these hard to manage themes like what's a studio park what do you do with it uh what

[01:39:26] the hell's an california park what do you do what's the california park what the hell is an epcot you

[01:39:31] know animal kingdom's message is not inherently based on something profitable what do we do with it

[01:39:36] you know like i think muppets is kind of like that it's like well okay here's this cool thing with this

[01:39:44] cool guy and the closer we get to it the more it feels like like living in a commune or something which

[01:39:53] is fine i'm all for that but like i think it's i think there's a lack of imagination there where

[01:39:59] they're just like what do we do with the muppets well you know ted over and you know the economic

[01:40:07] whatever office couldn't come up with anything so i guess nothing um ted in finance they're asking

[01:40:14] ted from finance about this my goodness that guy yeah a couple of good ideas the least the least

[01:40:20] creative person in the least creative office couldn't come up with an answer to a creative

[01:40:24] problem so i guess no answer exists um because it remains to be seen they're gonna have to they're

[01:40:31] gonna have to bump out in the parking lot either way yeah yeah most most likely it's i don't know it

[01:40:37] just feels like the same problem that star trek seems to have which is like the closer you get to the

[01:40:42] original intent the harder it is to ignore the idealism behind it which is like boring

[01:40:47] but that's the challenge that's what makes it fun and creative is embracing that and being like

[01:40:52] it's not boring this time because blah blah blah you know um i don't know i think the monsters thing

[01:40:59] sure why not let's have it i i think that that scene is cool it's fun i suspect it's going to end up

[01:41:08] being better as an idea than it is as a ride like i think the ride itself is going to be fine but i think

[01:41:13] the idea will get lost it won't be a thrill coaster it's in the laugh floor not the scare floor right

[01:41:20] so how to figure that you still have to get doors to get to kids rooms to tell them jokes

[01:41:25] right uh so how they're getting but it's not going to be a thrill coaster

[01:41:30] when was the last time either of you went to monsters inc laugh floor 10 years the last time i was

[01:41:38] there which was probably 10 years ago okay i think it was with you jimmy yeah what no i take that back

[01:41:44] the last time i went was the halloween party last last fall when it was a nightclub you know they uh

[01:41:50] they were doing halloween theme jokey things but it was also how you get candy uh genuine question

[01:41:57] because i'm not my finger isn't on the pulse of this is monsters that popular as far as i'm aware

[01:42:04] like the monsters university hat is one of the is consistently one of the best um merchandise

[01:42:14] offerings that they've got like they they are constantly selling those hats even though it just

[01:42:21] occurred to me that that's why we're getting this is because the disney company that mickey mouse was

[01:42:28] the single most popular stuffed animal character in paris france in the 90s so they thought oh they'll

[01:42:37] love disneyland of course which they did didn't pay off famously they do now um and there has been a

[01:42:44] a monsters at first their answer was series but now it's queen queen nice all right what else we got

[01:42:53] who else who else has something new coming to a park uh let's see over at disneyland's uh epcot center

[01:43:01] we're gonna have lounges wait a minute um well first of all zootopia a new show zootopia better

[01:43:11] zoo gather will open in winter of 2025 that's next year everybody uh at disney's animal kingdom

[01:43:19] so it's in the tree okay uh in it you'll visit different biomes from the film along along with

[01:43:28] judy hopps nick wilde and other characters from the movie uh to to quote dalen uh keep it scary

[01:43:35] if you're gonna take out tough to be a bug if you're saying to hell with joe rody's original idea

[01:43:42] um make it fun and thrilling a little scary a little uncomfortable for adults will any anything

[01:43:46] fart on you it's gonna be probably i'm telling you it's gonna be a concert with uh giselle or

[01:43:53] whatever her name was that's all it's gonna be shakira shakira no oh no oh god i just it's gonna oh

[01:44:04] i can't i can supreme out any of your words no it's more fun if i edit it myself it's gonna be

[01:44:12] it's gonna be the same it's the same it's gonna be the same format it's gonna be the same show it's

[01:44:17] gonna be it's not gonna be a bug but it's gonna be we're all waiting for the headliner and it's

[01:44:23] gonna be little little acts of like here's me doing a song that's how why it's funny to be a goat and

[01:44:29] it's gonna be like i don't know like goat in usa or something it's gonna be like bad it's just gonna

[01:44:36] be like hey and now and now we're this hat now it's time for a big scary lion oh no and it's just

[01:44:43] gonna be like really sensitive and sweet and singing about how you know maybe even like he

[01:44:48] the lion might even sing it's tough to be a bug and he has friends that are bugs he's covered in lady

[01:44:54] bugs like robert f kennedy jr or something carnivore yeah oh yeah there's gonna be that it's gonna be

[01:45:00] straight up that thing and it's gonna be like oh now it's time for giselle but like she's late or

[01:45:05] doesn't make it or something and then like like they're and they're gonna use the hopper animatronic

[01:45:11] arm for something that's gonna be like some villain you remember in the movie um the villain quote

[01:45:20] unquote the villains were the um carnivores what do they call them the uh the predators oh no no i just

[01:45:28] landed on it injected with this flower that made them all and killed yeah that's gonna be

[01:45:35] involved but they're gonna be tiny things that poke you in the back because they want to keep

[01:45:39] that and then i just landed on it oh god why does my brain work like this uh okay it's gonna be

[01:45:46] the chief of police has hesitantly hosting a talent contest oh and they're all gonna be showing

[01:45:54] or or like some kind of a it's gonna or no it's gonna be this it's gonna be something it's gonna be bad

[01:46:03] i just know it's gonna be bad because i know it's really i know it's gonna end up being about we're

[01:46:10] gonna go see giselle at a concert and it's gonna suck i think it's gonna be judy hops and nick wild

[01:46:16] giving you a tour of zootopia they're gonna take you all the different biomes and see the world i

[01:46:23] think to your point dan there's gonna be a little bit of like maybe a jump scare a pokey in the back

[01:46:27] thing they're gonna keep the the mechanics of the the show but it's gonna be a tour through zootopia

[01:46:34] i think it's gonna be a tour zootopia through song and they're gonna and they're gonna sing

[01:46:40] over the songs are gonna be over exposit over expository probably

[01:46:49] these are very specific takes all right what else we got all right uh pirates lounge coming 2025

[01:46:55] ladies and gentlemen uh we got another new look at the pirates of the caribbean themed lounge coming

[01:47:01] to magic kingdom 2025 looks located in adventure land and we'll extend the story from the iconic

[01:47:08] ride drink up me hearty yo ho is this tortuga tavern yeah alcohol in the magic kingdom

[01:47:16] yep we're doing it beyond sitting down at a restaurant having beer and wine this is a bar

[01:47:25] yeah yeah seems like it i'm okay i'm okay with that i just yeah it's

[01:47:33] i think it all i think i think we're not and fresh baked david said this a couple years ago we're not

[01:47:38] far away from like beer carts in the parks well they already have them but you're talking about the

[01:47:46] castle park the castle park yeah yeah the the the two yeah yeah yeah why not yeah i mean it's kind

[01:47:54] of fitting you have the walt disney animatronic man it's like i i have a beer in his hand

[01:48:04] and you could you could change the sponsor dan it could the next show is still light i forgot to

[01:48:10] mention there i think that a problem i foresee with the walt disney animatronic is too many people are

[01:48:17] going to want to get their picture taken with it oh yeah no doubt wouldn't you no i don't care

[01:48:26] at the end of the show when it's america right i mean golden wings dan just great if they kept that song

[01:48:34] too i would love it i want abe and walt to hug i think that they should sing a duet they should sing

[01:48:40] two brothers they shake hands just like at the end of uh the american adventure that's right yeah no i i

[01:48:48] i this the the vibe i got from this year's d23 was first of all apparently you need a musical act

[01:48:58] between everything that's right and second i think that this was kind of them going like yeah okay let's

[01:49:07] break the seal on a couple things we got the walt animatronic we have the we're gonna blow up rivers

[01:49:12] of america you know we're gonna make some decisions that you know maybe our people maybe some people

[01:49:20] won't like and i apologize for the background noise um but i you know like it's i think this is the year

[01:49:29] of we're gonna break some eggs and make some omelets you know here here all right and perhaps you can do

[01:49:37] that in the spaceship earth lounge i was gonna say you got a little more not the not the only lounge

[01:49:45] that's in the works next year a lounge based on spaceship earth is coming to epcot in what is presumably

[01:49:50] the sponsor lounge which is currently well semen's uh is now it's gonna be a bar overlooking i think

[01:49:58] this is their way of kind of replacing that big circular tower that they originally had announced at

[01:50:04] the last d23 that didn't happen uh-huh um i don't know if they're gonna do any like you know

[01:50:09] sponsor a festival stuff there but it's gonna be a bar that overlooks the epcot i'm sure

[01:50:15] it'll be cool dan is very pleased he likes this idea sponsorship opportunities i think they're done

[01:50:22] yeah i think that's right they're gonna make money elsewhere right which sponsor which sponsors them

[01:50:28] semen's anything else people that ties up uh disney world's announcements dan they didn't announce

[01:50:39] that much for disney land i'm sure you're i'm assuming you're close to done let me look back here

[01:50:46] let's see disneyland uh was built in 1955 by michael eisner and uh then walt disney came

[01:50:54] all right thank you ai all right we're done and let's see what else so eric you know what who's your

[01:51:03] verdict you know who wins everybody yeah we win we the park going public win and that's where i was

[01:51:13] going all along with this i i don't there's there's some stuff that people are going to be upset about

[01:51:19] i don't think they'll be upset for too long i i even even if we lose like rivers of america i i've

[01:51:30] already said i don't particularly care if we lose it uh muppets 3d you know what if we lose it it's

[01:51:36] fine it's old yeah people don't go there it's another one of those things that people don't

[01:51:42] visit and hey we got a new a new country bears some some of these old things are still going

[01:51:49] um and other things are going to be replaced and and you come in whatever i think i ultimately

[01:51:56] i think we're good this is this is something new this is something that is different it's

[01:52:02] interesting we're we're moving forward without i mean it's it's bold it's it's different it's

[01:52:11] something that is is taking what we have and expanding upon it without uh needing to create a fifth gate

[01:52:19] in walt disney world without necessarily needing to create that third gate in disneyland jumping

[01:52:24] forward into that arena i i think uh i think we're in a good spot here gentlemen i agree i agree i think

[01:52:33] we all win i think we're getting but as far as announcements go disney world i mean i mean

[01:52:41] disney world disney world i would say probably wins because there are more things being announced

[01:52:47] and there are older things yeah i mean but disneyland already we already know what's going to happen at

[01:52:53] disneyland disney world it certainly has the the more announcements but like they need they've

[01:53:01] needed a nighttime parade for a long time yeah yeah they're they're getting rid of some things that

[01:53:06] some people will find very upsetting um i think i honestly think it's about net even i think i i mean

[01:53:15] accounting for the that they they're just different sizes to begin with um yeah i mean so so disney world

[01:53:24] needs more stuff um it's big yeah but we've talked about before and having recently experienced

[01:53:31] disneyland a couple of times there's just so much to do there and you know when you can go on 26 rides in

[01:53:39] a day and and not leave effectively not leave epcot the size of epcot um you just can't do that to disney

[01:53:50] world if you did 26 rides at disney world that's like everything like this is just and you'd have to

[01:53:55] spend all day non-stop and miles and miles of travel and they just need it they need more stuff and i

[01:54:03] don't really think they're really losing anything again rivers of america and island don't take up

[01:54:08] people right they're gonna they're expanding with the the villain's land and the car stuff you you the

[01:54:15] capacity is going to increase by arguably 20 right even losing muppet vision you're not really losing

[01:54:24] capacity it's space people don't really go there yeah but it goes i agree with what you're saying

[01:54:30] and it goes back to that idealist thing that i stupidly hold on to which is like you don't need

[01:54:39] to lose anything you can just build another thing and yeah maybe your road is in the way but you own

[01:54:46] that road yeah you know i don't know i get what you're saying like especially at walt disney world

[01:54:52] where they can they do have more space but how much can you expect a human being to walk around

[01:54:59] you know at what point do you need a bus to go from one side of hollywood studios to the other

[01:55:05] like i but that and maybe this is just comes back to how i approached disney world years ago when i

[01:55:13] visited the visited the first time is it's like what if disney world did that did have that amount of

[01:55:19] density in that space it would be amazing it'd be mind-blowing people would like it it'd be

[01:55:26] unquestionably one of the greatest places ever um they don't need to yeah i'm sure the bean counters

[01:55:33] have counted those beans and they say oh we don't need that much yeah and i understand i understand

[01:55:41] that the bean counter i understand that we live in the world that we live in that that's totally

[01:55:45] fine i i get that i am a materialist i i understand that however

[01:55:52] i i i have impossible standards hence my politics

[01:55:58] um but yeah i think ultimately eric um you know i don't i i think you're right you know at the end

[01:56:06] of the day maybe it's a net net for everybody which again defeated the whole point of our take but

[01:56:10] um yeah i ruined our show no i think how about this let's give it to disney world because some of the

[01:56:19] fans need it right now yeah maybe that so in closing from my end uh my closing arguments are

[01:56:27] i think if they actually do villains land that is what i'm singly most excited about because it's so

[01:56:35] different such a departure how are they going to handle it is it going to be scary is you know

[01:56:40] because at night it just look it would look really cool um how they handle villains land

[01:56:46] is the thing i'm single most excited about the second thing i'm most excited about is walt disney's

[01:56:51] animatronic huh wow again for the reason of how are they going to handle it uh a revered

[01:56:58] a revered historical figure not unlike ape lincoln i'm obviously famous for different things but um

[01:57:06] right it's just it's just such a unique idea and how they handle that will be really interesting

[01:57:11] those those are the two things i'm most excited about dan what are your your top two

[01:57:17] let's go this way i'm excited actually about the coco ride okay mainly because disney's california

[01:57:26] adventure needs animatronic rides and every time i go to disney's i i i don't know why i keep i

[01:57:38] usually just call it dca but in this conversation i keep going i keep going to call it disneyland

[01:57:42] um every time i go to dca i find myself thinking i want to go on a boat ride for some reason but

[01:57:50] they don't have one i mean they have grizzly river rapids but i don't want to get wet you know we do

[01:57:55] need more boat rides that's a fair i mean boat rides are good they're they're fun you know like it's a

[01:58:00] nice way to convey people around and i think that you know uh they definitely need a high capacity ride

[01:58:07] i think that'll help with that um so all for all those races and also just curiosity of how they're

[01:58:13] going to handle it um i i am excited to see that uh i suspect i will enjoy the avengers ride but i don't

[01:58:23] really care um i think well i think the walt disney robot mainly because i hope i hope they do it well

[01:58:36] i think they probably will they probably will i'm aware of how they could do it wrong and

[01:58:42] at the same time for content i am looking forward to that being hilarious and talking about that

[01:58:49] so it's kind of a win-win for me okay for my part uh yeah villains land uh definitely and then um avatar

[01:59:01] at dca what are the odds that all of this has been built or has broken ground and i say all of this

[01:59:15] i think there were 23 announcements with within the five years that they within the five years

[01:59:23] yeah so let's say august of 2029 will all of this have been broken ground or built no way

[01:59:32] i think i think villains land is going to be the outlier with time because i think they're going

[01:59:36] to really sit on their hands waiting to see what happens with epic universe i think that's a good

[01:59:41] a good and if the epics universe monsters thing is a bust i don't think they do it oh

[01:59:48] oh that's some stakes right there or hey we'll show you how to do it right i think that that's the

[01:59:54] idea and i think that or if it's successful frankenstein then villains land oh geez i mean

[02:00:03] it's not sure that's it's it's open actual yeah how old is it it's it's i was gonna say i'm sure

[02:00:10] that's public domain by now yeah it is dracula you know what the universal can do the same damn thing

[02:00:16] put steamboat steamboat willy into monsters land a blood willy we see your phantom of the opera and

[02:00:25] we'll raise you a steamboat willy i hope villains land just does some obscure things too like the

[02:00:30] weird villain from uh rescuers that'd be cool medusa yeah radigan yeah oh radigan nice the guy from

[02:00:38] uh pocahontas you mean john smith the colonizer no no the other villain oh the governor whatever

[02:00:47] that was a raccoon um i i yeah i i hope it has some random element to it but isn't too much of a

[02:00:57] character dump you know it'd be fun yep all right eric take us out i think we're doing all right here

[02:01:03] regardless so i have this to say rabies from hold yeller that could be a villain you just talked

[02:01:11] over my casey jr all aboard let's go let's go sorry you're saving that too i was i'm sorry i was too

[02:01:18] delighted by the idea of dan out of this episode all together just me and jimmy having a conversation

[02:01:26] eric to that end uh i had a great conversation with heather yesterday where she booked at

[02:01:33] nine night 10 day trip to walt disney world this december with she and her family when they use

[02:01:40] concierge they are listeners of the ears up podcast network and uh yeah it's i'm very excited they're

[02:01:47] they're they were going to go to riverside port arlenes riverside because they like it

[02:01:51] and we i talked her through just sort of the pros and cons of all the different resorts

[02:01:56] we're looking at some price sensitivity they have five people so you can't really go just anywhere with

[02:02:02] five people so okay kind of the all-stars were out and that sort of thing because they don't fit five

[02:02:08] people so you're kind of limited to where you could stay uh at the end we decided on caribbean beach

[02:02:13] okay the reason why is you could still do a fifth sleeper and you're right there on the skyliner

[02:02:19] yeah it ended up being about 30 a day more but what we talked about is if you want to go to epcot

[02:02:26] get on the skyliner you don't have to transfer you just get on that's the hub of the skyliner

[02:02:30] you're there in a few minutes you want to go to hollywood studios get on the skyliner you're there

[02:02:33] in a few minutes if you're staying at the riverside you have no choice but getting on a bus

[02:02:39] to go anywhere yeah except disney springs you can get on a boat great certainly can't go wrong

[02:02:47] but if we're talking about 30 a day the first time you spend 12 hours at the manager king or

[02:02:53] let's say 12 hours at hollywood studios or 10 hours to hollywood studios and then you leave with

[02:02:59] 20 000 other people and you sit there for 30 minutes to wait for that bus then you have to stand in

[02:03:05] the bus to get to your hotel that hour of time that you would take rather than just getting on the

[02:03:11] skyliner well yeah maybe you have to wait a couple minutes to to get on but it's constantly moving

[02:03:16] loading people and the first stop is your hotel um it's worth that 30 a day so that's what they end

[02:03:24] up deciding and that's what we can offer you with concierge is that expertise and that personal

[02:03:29] experience to cater to your needs but i'm excited for them they're going for 10 days and they got

[02:03:33] park hoppers and uh it's gonna be fun all right that sounds tremendous i yeah i would love that dan i

[02:03:41] can't wait to uh i would love if i was there when you experienced the skyliner for the first time

[02:03:48] just saying it's it's the absolute best um and hey if you like listening to and what's that to do

[02:03:55] that we can call 856 our ears oh yes 856 our ears go to concierge.com um i mean honestly i've just

[02:04:02] talked to either one of you but just call jan you're you're a you're a uh you're an honorary concierge at
