Looking forward to seeing your vlogs on Fantasy Springs.

@happiestplace3754 Месяц назад

I honestly feel like Fantasy Springs is a new landmark, cultural shift in Disney theme parks. That sounds a bit crazy and over the top, but this is not just a new attraction opening, and it's not even a new land. It's a complete, immerse new storytelling format, including its own themed hotel. We haven't seen anything like this in years (decades even) and the amount of excitement that Fantasy Springs has drawn is like nothing else. I know there are a lot of "exclusivity" and wait times (like Tron coming to the U.S.) but those blurry, blobby concept drawings of Disneyland Forward look VERY much like Fantasy Springs. If the exclusivity is 5 years, it will definitely be more than 5 years before this comes to pass, so don't count out a U.S. version. I certainly am hopeful. The moment they started throwing out names like Peter Pan and Rapunzel for DL forward, it makes perfect sense to clone something you already have over starting from scratch.

@imtired1696 Месяц назад

Meh. At the end of the day, they're all just dark rides retelling the movie stories. And it looks on par with New Fantasyland to me. Nothing groundbreaking or paradigm shifting. Just the next step in what Disneys done for decades. It all just looks amazing. That's fact. They did a great job. 😁

@christopherjunkins Месяц назад

Except that at the end of the day, people are less and less willing to come to a ride that's already been made at another park... even if it's the only version they will ever get to experience themselves... why do you think there was such a lack luster thing around Tron's Florida opening? It's not that great a concept AND it's already been done AND it's in a nook behind another experience not too far off from it with space mountain... poor planning on Disney's part there... could have had a whole new ride no one had ever experience, instead Disney hit CTRL+C then CTRL+V.

@minos468 Месяц назад

I personally have to say while I'm definitely impressed by the technology and the way they brought the level of theming to life, I can't help but think that if this is the direction even Tokyo is going in than what even does regular Disney have to compete with, because in reality the Frozen ride is an upgraded version of an existing attraction, Tangled is a short boat ride with several iconic but also calm scenes from the movie without much storyline going on except for it being about Rapunzel and a Lantern Festival, and then a weirdly parallel version of Peter Pans Flight with modern technology while the original version sits just a few miles away at Tokyo Disneyland. Again, the theming and level of detaill is impressive but the choices made in the end for what was ultimately Disneys most highly themed immersive original theme park, leaves this to be a bit of an unfortunate corner that modern day economics has driven Tokyo DisneySea into where its also mostly driven on IP and money making with whats familiar for modern day audiendes

@minos468 Месяц назад

in that sense its defo a cultural shift, but idk personally if i think its for the better..

@imtired1696 Месяц назад

@minos468 It's kinda obvious. They needed to add more capital D Disney to the park.

It's a fine line. They might allow filming so I don't watch the rides if that makes sense. Will be watching Stage 89 streamed soon. Thx Tom

@neko-chan6145 Месяц назад

i would really like them to focus on clean up and maintenance. I go for the theme, beauty and emersion. The new lands and rides are great but not why I go multiple times.

@VideoGamePhilosopher Месяц назад

Six flags fell into that trap. They kept spending millions on coasters every year while going cheap on maintenance…they aren’t doing well.

@VideoGamePhilosopher Месяц назад

I also think they could build and update smaller attractions to increase capacity quickly before building more 100 million dollar attractions.

@fifthrider Месяц назад

Agreed. Disney is comparable to a government that doesn't fix roads, but spends millions on pet projects to win the voter's favor. Too bad Iger got back in and not someone more financially-minded. This administration spends to earn favor, but they will be damned if they'll spend to clean, repair and pay livable wages.

@mattdaaamon Месяц назад

@@VideoGamePhilosopher Six flags got addicted to cheap passholders and then were trapped into a situation where they couldn't raise prices but also couldn't afford to invest to make those passes worth charging more either. Hopefully they are starting to break this cycle.

So glad that the food court at the All Star Movies resort is getting a referb! I'm staying there for a night before a cruise in September, and after doing so last year I have to say it was not impressive and it definitely was not something I was wanting to experience if I were going to be at the resort for a week.

@alishanightshade3270 Месяц назад

I'm so excited on FS. I look at videos, posts, analysis every day to get more details and easter egg. I'm so happy that their Frozen Journey is more relax than the one in Hong Kong. I'm also excited to ride Peter Pan. There's not many 3D simulators in Asia parks. The only two I went on were spiderman and transformer. I know the us parks have a lot of that but I don't think the targets of FS are US guests.

@kazuthesamurai7346 Месяц назад

@JeanMBotero Месяц назад

Fantasy Springs just looks amazing

@denisemcgilvrey3966 Месяц назад

As I see all the ornate and highly detailed theming in everything at Fantasy Springs- from walls to grounds to attractions and restaurants to cast costuming- I can’t help but contrast it to the stark detheming of WDW stores (world of Disney) and hotels (boardwalk inn) and sparsely themed attractions and uninteresting cast costuming. So sad.

@averyeml Месяц назад

To me the Peter Pan ride looks more like an individual-sized Back to the Future/Simpsons ride, but maybe that’s just the fact that it looks like a vehicle fully surrounded by a bubble screen and I can’t see any actual room for movement in those pictures.

@robertjones1729 Месяц назад

Aloha DWD...I was at Disneyland during that first year after Covid once or twice a year since. I am going there again during this bit of a lul in the attendencnce. I was going to wait for Fantasmic but it will be a Zoo ..we will see...if ok..I can go again! Thanks guys for all your work. Aloha

@kentslocum Месяц назад

I believe that the lion's share of Disney's investment in their Anaheim Resort over the next decade will be focused on the Eastern Gateway Project. Until they relocate parking and bus drop-off, Disney has nowhere to build expansions. I believe we are a very long way away from any major expansions to the Disneyland Resort, simply because of the infrastructure that must be relocated and replaced to facilitate such a larce-scale transformation. However, it is good to hear that the first crucial steps have been taken to begin making this a reality. 😊

@AlusiMD Месяц назад

WESTCOT!

@mattdaaamon Месяц назад

8.3 billion in a quarter. They make scrooge mcduck money from the parks. They can and should make major investments to add capacity.

@vectorwolf Месяц назад

It probably will be a third park at Disneyland, as I can't imagine them trying to answer Epic with anything less. I think it's going to come too late, though. That said, it's good for everyone in the long run; Disney has been able to coast for too long, and it's long overdue for someone to light a fire under them and make them cough up something more than repeats and reskins. Competition breeds innovation.

WDW News, the Oriental Land Company know how to build attractions and lands without compromise.

Disney don't like to spend to much money on their American Parks. Cheers, Chris Perry.

@DiaryofaRollerCoasterGirl Месяц назад

I'm really surprised that they didn't make one of the Fantasy Springs attractions a coaster, as that park is majorly lacking a decent coaster.

@danieltrew868 Месяц назад

Fantasy Springs is more targeted towards younger guests at DisneySea, particularly because of the lack of more family-oriented attractions at that park (Flying Carpets was quickly dropped into the Arabian Coast port to increase capacity for little ones, besides what Mermaid Lagoon already offered). Asian guests also tend to not stomach thrill as much as western park-goers, as evidenced by the tamer ride cycle of Tower of Terror there, so I'm sure OLC and Imagineering took a look at the demographic and thought investment would be better spent in slower experiences.

@LittleLostBunny Месяц назад

Not to mention these rides definitely look like they have a higher capacity. They neeeeed rides with the ability to cycle guests through. Agree that their coaster offerings are lackluster though. We were bummed at how tame the ToT ride was when we rode, but the theming made up for it.

If unionizing results in them receiving the same benefits that employees at Disney World and other types of Disneyland employees receive that’s terrific.
