@esplanerd Tropical Americas is also not referred to as an area.
The slide is messed up because MK has "lands"; only non-castle parks have "themed areas"
@JEMM2424@Park_Journey Literally the entire world is outside Disneyland, except for Disneyland. So the Candy Cane Inn behind CarsLand is the sketchiest area?
@crazyparkguy@BillZanetti 60 seconds load time is possible with a roller coaster, but not a transit system where people are loading with strollers and wheelchairs and managing little kids.
@BillZanetti@SixMilesTall I thought that parcel was not suitable for a hotel, or at least it wasn't in the 80s. Construction techniques have changed since then so maybe its possible now.
But Disney probably wants to build an in-park hotel next, and that parcel isn't in-park.
@BillZanetti A company whose stock price is down 45% over the past 5 years doesn't do a "billion dollar investment with little to no visible return".
And if it was so important with no return, Iger should have done it before the handoff to a new CEO.
@That1Passholder I'm not saying Avatar should move from AK, I'm saying the idea to group franchises by "studios" makes no sense. As an example, Avatar by 20C is closer to SW by LucasFilm than other 20C-Fox franchises (Simpsons, Die Hard, Alien).
@That1Passholder Thats interesting. My guess would be there isn't enough time to do everything in one day, so oppo of your POV.
I wonder if every new park is a half-day park to start. HK & DCA were. OG DL probably was too. You open not when done, but when there is just enough to sell tickets.
@That1Passholder Fox Film Corp and Twentieth Century Pictures merged in 1935. The combined studio was sold to Disney, who renamed it to 20th Century Studios. There is no Fox Studios anymore.
The "name prevalence" you cite is b/c FoxNews/FoxSports, which Disney doesn't own.
@That1Passholder You said 20C isn’t as impactful. So you thought they were different companies.
Also Disney doesn’t own the Fox name so it would require a license fee and come with FoxNews baggage.
