Ten years later when it's all done we get disappointed that all budgets are massively slashed over the years and we only get HALF of what they promised. C'mon,....we WANT to be excited...but deep down in our hearts, we know it's true. Disney ALWAYS does this to us. They just don't have the money to build what they "say" they want to build.

I somewhat think it depends on how the universal park does. Universal is betting that Disney has underbuilt for the market for a long time. If they are right and epic universe ends up being effectively sold out for most of the year, Disney is going to push through with mostly everything. If epic universe his the brakes and universal has to offer more aggressive deals Disney may cancel some things but I think they still mostly build because they are so far behind on active expansion. Universal will be done their park next year and Disney will not have anything ready even announced for probably 3 years outside of maybe test track retheme.

It would be high capacity and a great way for people to get out of the heat, sit down and enjoy a fun ride. I miss 😢 Horizons so much’ was my favorite Epcot ride. Who else likes 👍 this idea for a change in the MK. Plus, add blue LED lighting on the outside of the people mover cars! That would add so much visibility and kinetic energy to Tomorrowland!

@@adamp2384 “ we shouldn’t have to” we should when we know the companys history Disney deliberately makes their concept as imaginative as possible so they can determine what they like best and build those parts, part of the reason Disney concept is called blue sky is because the sky is the limit regarding concept art and they can let their imagination go wild without the constraints of real world practicality’s like budget, space and feasibility, those three factors have always limited the practical implementation of attractions in Disney parks, this has been the case since the beginning, look at torrowland pre 1959, or look at the concept of classic attractions, there are amazing ideas that never were implemented for haunted mansion, pirates, small world, the classic Epcot lands etc, all would have been amazing all proved to expensive, to big or to impractical, entire lands have been dreamed up and shelved or scaled down because they would have been money pits, didn’t garner enough interest/ support, affected budgets elsewhere, or just were to unfeasible. It would be nice if everything Disney dreamed up became reality but that has never been the case, the reason people notice and complain is because Disney isn’t as creative about making the most out of what they can build as they have previously been, the trick to Disney’s success is that they are creative as possible within the practical limits of what they can build, they haven’t been lately and that is worth calling them out on but we also need to recognize that not everything Disney shows in blue sky is feasible, Disney is constantly trying to balance creativity versus practicality, after nearly going bankrupt several times because of trying to figure out that balance it’s understandable there’d be cautious with newer stuff, the problem right now is creativity. Universal meticulously planned epic universe and built their finances and they don’t have a culture of trying to majorly expand their parks every few years like Disney they are in a better financial position to live up to their concept art than Disney is. We should expect greatness from Disney yes but we should be realistic in our expectations.

@@adamp2384 “we shouldn’t have to accept that” not if they’re being deliberately lazy, but we should if they’re being limited by practical limitations, budget, feasibility and space are the main limiting factors that shape how an attraction or land is developed from blue sky, blue sky is deliberately unrealistic in what it shows to encourage unbridled imagination from the imagineers because the sky is the limit on paper, hence blue sky. Those ideas get changed or adjusted when confronted with feasibility. Every classic ride and land has awesome ideas that were scrapped or downscaled, entire lands and attractions are scrapped if judged impractical, it’s a by product of Disney’s original business strategy , balancing creativity with practicality, art with business. The secret to Disney’s success historically is that they were as creative as possible within practical limitations. The issue recently is that Disney has been to practical and not creative enough. Fans should demand greatnesses but they also need to be realistic in their expectations. Universal didn’t go wild with the epic universe concept like Disney would have hence their attractions are more feasible

Disney heads clout chasing in Japan for a month is wild. Does it really take a trip around the globe to get a good Disney experience these days? Sad really. Isn't Tokyo Disneyland a clone of Disneyland? What's the point other than clout?
