Will we see any avatar news tomorrow?
As someone who lives within 10 miles of Disneyland, I believe that Having RSR without the rest of the town would not make sense, unless TDO scaled down the mountain range immenslyQuote:

They would have to. Cars Land would have be scaled down immensely just due to the fact that the available space (Stunt Show, and Backlot Tour) could MAYBE fit only RSR, or only Route 66 without any major reworking or scaling down. That is unless Disney has plans of demolishing The Great Movie Ride, Muppets and the streets of America, then they might be able to fit DCA's Cars Land 1:1.Quote:

A whole area dedicated to one franchise in an area meant to accommodate all things Pixar. Sounds even more silly. Pixar Place would become really weird. A whole land dedicated to Cars, and then a Toy Story 3D ride right up front.Quote:

Aka smaller less detailed town and drastically reduced Cadillac mountain range. Note I said think vs fear as I have such little faith in wdw's ability to do anything with a mindset of exceed expectations, that I can't even say I fear this or worry about it. I am genuinely convinced before this project even gets the green light that it will be a reduced version of California's.Quote:

They already built one Carsland at Walt Disney World. Do you actually think they would build another?

Disney gave up on being unique when they found out they can clone the same thing over and over again.Quote:

That's not their "business model" anymore. They went all out for the new Fantasyland, and now they are also expanding DHS and AK. The rewamped Test Track is getting very good reviews. They improved on Mermaid by building a more impressive show building and queue.Quote:

The one criticism of CL that has really stuck is that the new land takes up more space than is necessary for the effect it produces. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy CL, but a 25%-30% reduction in its scale would have the same basic quality. Just look at Wizarding World, for example; does it need to be BIG to have an impact and immerse us in its theming? No.
Did you see the New Fantasyland before corporate stepped in? Instead of Dwarves mine train they were putting in another freaking meet and greet... Not to mention the "e-ticket restaurant", great build up that TLM queue creates for a lacking ride, nothing of any interest in Storybook circus, ugly railing around the "Casey Junior reclaimed sewer water happy fun place", ect... Test track does not count since it was payed for by Cheverolet. I give all the credit for that one to WDI. I have seen nothing that TDO has payed for that screamed change. I personally feel that new fantasyland is just like Animal Kingdom. Gorgeous to look at, but not a whole lot to do. Rides are expensive and do not directly increase profit. E-ticket restaurants and photo pass meet and greets do. Nothing has changed at TDO.Quote:
