![]() like if they recreated a Bolt action scene like what was being filmed at the beginning of the movie. ![]() or even a way to incorporate it into a car chase type situation. It may not get it's own land, but a show or dark ride. I think Bolt would be a great fit to be utilized at DHS since the dog was suppose to be an actor. Door themed coaster concept I have heard thrown around sounds interesting for a Family-friendly e-ticket. The Incredibles, Ratatouille, WALL E, Monster Inc., Up, Bolt, and Brave. Some Pixar films that might be able to be used for a E-ticket ride at DHS. It seems like the thought of putting something Pixar ish in at DHS has been brought up before (maybe since Cars is Pixar and was used at DCA for her big project. I'm glad that someone who did such high caliber work at DCA is headed to our side of the US to do work! I hope she impresses us! Kali is hardly a real rapid ride because it lacks rapids. ![]() It has both the drops that Disney seemed to want to incoporate AND rapids. I'm much more impressed by Grizzle River Run in DCA. Please make it more of a rapid ride and less of just a trip up and down a hill and then you float a long a little big under some water shooting until you get back to the station. Here is my big thing I'd like WDW Resort to fix (since people keep mentioning Robert's article about fixing things). ![]() and really if you were going to be a adrenelene junkie you might choose Universal IOA first anyway. be I will say what Hollywood Studios needs to me is probably something that is family friendly since it is already home to the two most thrill focused rides at WDW. A Captain America show (playing off of the shows he put on in the movie promoting the military?). So having unique attrations in parks around the world doesn't play into Disney's marketing plan nor it's capital budgets plan (duplicate attractions save money on design, engineering, etc).Ī Flying coaster themed after Iron Man. The one exception is national advertising plays everywhere. Disneyland doesn't advertise outside of those areas and Disney World doesn't advertise outside of their areas either, nor does either one go after vacationeers outside of those areas. Disneyland gets the Western US (west of the Rockies) and the Pacific Rim (including Australia). To anoymous user that said "Thats what Disney wants, a reason for guests to travel the globe to see all Disney parks?"ĭisney doesn't want anyone but Japanese to go to Tokyo Disneyland (for multiple reasons)ĭisney doesn't expect anyone outside of Europe and the Middle East to go to Disneyland Paris.Īs for the stateside Disney parks, they have divided the world more or less in half. Let's hope some fat design and construction budgets, bathed in green lights, are following Mangum to Central Florida, too. Still, it's generally good news for theme park fans when Imagineers get promotions within the Walt Disney Company, instead of accountants. There's no guarantee that Cars Land would be as big a hit in Florida as it has been at the Disneyland Resort. Toy Story Midway Mania draws better in Florida than it does in Anaheim, while Star Tours 2 hit bigger in Disneyland than at WDW. But let's not forget that the two coasts don't always embrace identical new attractions with the same fervor. The easiest way to make that happen might seem to bring in Mangum to build a Cars Land at Walt Disney World, perhaps at the Disney's Hollywood Studios theme park - the proto-California Adventure. So at this point, all I'll read into the announcement is that Disney is very, very happy with the money that Mangum's latest project is making for the company and would very much like new projects at Walt Disney World to make gobs of money for Disney just like Cars Land is doing, thank you. It's a huge team, with heaven only knows how many projects going at once. Mangum's one of those executive VPs, and Avatar lead designer Joe Rohde is one of the senior VPs (along with Tony Baxter, to drop another name). You could go nuts trying to draft a linear organizational chart for Walt Disney Imagineering, which is co-lead by Craig Russell and Bruce Vaughn, with four senior vice presidents and six executive vice presidents (plus an additional VP for Tokyo Disney) on the management roster, too. Yep, Disney announced today that it is shipping Walt Disney Imagineering's Kathy Mangum off to Florida, where she will assume the newly-created position of "Executive Producer" for the Walt Disney World Resort, overseeing attraction and resort design at WDW. (Sorry, that lead was so easy, I simply couldn't resist.) Kathy Mangum, left, with John Lasseter and Buena Vista Street lead Imagineer Lisa Girolami, before the rededication of Disney California Adventure in June.
