What ride should replace Doomsday Destroyer?
Whombex replied to Prequel's topic in Theme Park Discussion
I mean, the land is right next to SDSC, so a Scooby version of this would be perfect. Could even be a Western theme to tie the Scooby/WWF areas together. (With a shady queue, of course..) -
LOL at the Pelican in the passenger seat.

Wizard of Oz - Movie World Arkham Asylum Replacement

From the movie's Wikipedia article: If anything MW would have been a bit late had the SAG-AFTRA strike not have happened. -

At no point had I associated "Jane's Rivertown Restaurant" with Tarzan Lore. DW don't have that IP, and where was "Rivertown" in Tarzan? Some conclusion jumping going on here. Looking forward to hearing more about the animatronics.

I am surprised people are being so blasé about these generated images. Concept artists are having their art stolen to feed the generator software. Concept artists are losing work to image generators that were built on stolen and copyrighted art.

I'd love to see a show moved back into there and HSD2 replaced with a new ride.

Considering from the art they're covering the back of Superman Escape, covering Scooby is likely. -

It will be interesting to see how the track in red will interact (if at all) with the station and queue.

Quite surprised that the Tower of Terror building and Billabong are not going. I wonder if any of the Murrisippi is being reclaimed near the Vintage Cars (grey line is the paths by the looks of it), apart from Jungle Rush passing over it at one point. Maybe they will build a boardwalk over the water?

I know maps have a lot of artistic license and often hide whole precincts when closed, but are the old Gum Tree Gully buildings being removed for a full area redesign? Many of those buildings are from '82.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril is a one-trick pony with the little loop. The queue theming is good, but you're not missing much with the ride. Discoveryland hasn't changed much, it still has a steampunk aesthetic. Hyperion Cafe, Orbitron, Nautulis, etc, haven't changed.

Tiger Island Redevelopment - STAGE 1
Whombex replied to New display name's topic in Theme Park Discussion
I have a memory of being near Central Station and seeing a Cougar scratching and spraying on a tree. The two handlers were keeping it on a solid chain, but it was pretty docile, happy to wander and spray. My memory was of a Mountain Lion, but it's probably the Cougar I'm thinking of. Google says they're in the same family, so easy to mix up. -

Walt Disney Studios - 18/19th of July 2023
Whombex replied to Gazza's topic in Theme Park Discussion
My November '22 trip report mentioned this Good to see you had a good time - I quite enjoyed Ratatouille, but haven't done any of the 'better' trackless darkies than this. The scenes under the trolley, the oven and the mop were standouts for me, bringing in smells worked well too.. I regret not waiting out the line for Crush's Coaster based on your description.- 10 replies

Go back a page on this thread, one's still on the track. The monorail hasn't run since the Pandemic stated I believe. -

Maybe they should expand the Western area into the Doomsday area when it goes? /s
