Fun Fact: I actually had the name of this video finalized and decided before the whole Reedy Creek debacle happened this last week. I gotta talk to Leota about that. Either way, let's keep it friendly in the comments here, everyone. What new ride or rides do you think are most likely to appear within the next 10 years?

Gotta be honest.. Disney is pricing me out at this point. What was a trip every two years is probably going to become a trip every five years. We went in January and the prices were insane even for Disney.

Disney changed or did away with many of my favorites from my childhood. They also have made the experience very chaotic to manage basically rendering a Disney vacation as a stressful and Uber expensive experience.. I’m just not feeling it anymore.. the wait times, the price, the crowds, the fast passes, the park reservations, food reservations.. it has killed the Disney experience for me.

It would be a low blow if they decided to put Zootopia in Animal Kingdom. That park is Joe Rohde’s baby and he personally said that Zootopia doesn’t fit animal kingdoms theme and message.

I am unsure about Disney's future. I am fine with ip rides in the parks if implemented correctly. While I enjoy rides like Frozen Ever After I feel like it wasn't well implemented. Bob Chapek is also a huge issue inside the company. Michael Eisner was a better CEO in my opinion with actual aspirations for the company and being rooted in creativity. Bob Chapek is just cheap and is just there for the money.

I love Disney, but in the most recent decade they’ve neglected park maintenance, and have gotten lazy in the theater, minus marvel properties.

As a former employee of Disney/MGM (Now Disney Hollywood) Studios, I'm going to tell you a little secret. They will never combine the Animation Plaza with Sunset Blvd because that is where the Staff Cafeteria is. Also, it is where we dispose of all the trash from Sunset Blvd.

To me, Disney will always be Mickey and company, Tomorrow Land, Jungle Cruise, Pirates, and Haunted Mansion. I’m just not a fan of the newer movie stuff and would prefer new attractions with old properties. I’d love to see an updated 20,000 Leagues ride.

I predict at D23 this year they will have presentations of all the new corporate executives because all the current ones will resign or be fired. I also believe people may attend to actually cause a ruckus during the presentations because of their displeasure with Disney management.

Could we please stop planning e-tickets and full-blown lands for movies that were released yesterday and wil probably be forgotten in a couple of years? And also, Connections Cafe is quite representative of Chapek's administration: it looks like any cafeteria anywhere. It's nothing. Sad.

I love some of the IP in the parks, BUT I feel like the parks are going more and more into new attractions being IP only which makes me sad. I love all of the original characters, rides, and ideas that make the parks special. I hope that someday when Chapek isn’t the CEO anymore we will gain some of the disney magic back again. Also, salt and pepper 😎

Your shirt being transparent against the green screen is adorable!

There is no way that Disney today would build something like Expedition Everest.

yeah i haven't been in almost 7 years because of the price. last time i went it was over $4000 for 3 people 5 days. i understand that expense is doable for some people, but well out of my now 6 person familys price range, especially with how much the prices have risen since then. i honestly do not expect to be able to go to Disney ever again.

IP IS bad for the parks, considering it allows imagineering to rely on pre-existing story and characters as opposed to actually using their creativity and innovating. This is proven by DisneySea, arguably the best them park in the world, with next to no IP. DisneySea and classic attractions like Haunted Mansion, Pirates, Big Thunder etc still feel distinctly Disney, but with timeless, unique, thoughtfull theming and lore.

Looking forward to see how Universal takes advantage of this time while Disney keeps fumbling time and time again. Star Wars Land vs Nintendo World is all you need to look at to see the directions each company is taking.

Disney is falling down on almost every angle right now, and charging more and more for it. I’ve been a life long Disney purist, the kind of person who didn’t even leave the Disney bubble on week long vacations. Anymore? I’ve started going to universal instead. They’re taking full advantage of Disney’s failings and are absolutely killing it.

I would hate if Disney ever says goodbye to the Star Tours ride seen it's a great attraction that a lot of people love including me

Imagine if they would upgrade 'Mister Toad's Wild Ride' w/trackless technology & how amazingly crazy that would be! You wouldn't see the track in front of you, therefore you wouldn't anticipate any of the twists & turns in that attraction.

I’ve been boycotting since the cast member layoff of 2020 when the company was making MORE THAN EVER from streaming and Marvel garbage. None of those employees had a last day, they just sent them form emails letting them go. This year, a family member was rehired in a behind the scenes role- made arrangements to quit another job- then was told a week later his position was cut from budget. WHAT THE F.

Dude I love how your keeping such a good attitude towards what is truly such a sad thing. I’ve been watching ur vids for a few years now, your such a devoted fan and this company doesn’t care about great fans like you. They should be listening to you! And investing more in the parks!

Universal has east coast parks rights to X-Men, Spider-Man, Avengers, Fantastic 4, and all directly associated characters within those groups... IN. PERPETUITY. Realistically, Universal will never let those rights expire.

They better not tear down muppet vision 3D Its the last thing jim henson did because he passed away during production And my buddy nathen said it’s haunted

I get the funny feeling that Parks and Resorts panel is going to be very light on big announcements.

would love to see the boardwalk style rides and games moved to the actual boardwalk hotel area (all pay per ride or ticket based) and then that area in Animal kingdom rethemed to South/Central America, thinking paradise falls from Up, Rio based animal conservation things and Encanto dark ride.

Honestly, i would just as happy if not MORE happy if disney went all the way back 6 or so years. I loved going then, now its still fun, but…a bit exhausting

An 'Encanto' attraction would no doubt more than likely work better in EPCOT than 'Animal Kingdom'. You could go thru a trackless ride thru the different rooms inside 'Casita' & use a bunch of projection-mapping combined w/cartoony animatronics, something similar to Runaway Railroad, but w/animatronics that resemble the ones from Tokyo Disneyland's Beauty & the Beast attraction. As for new Animal Kingdom attractions, the World of Pandora could really use a 3rd attraction, perhaps some kind of rollercoaster or darkride. A Zootopia themed Land is probably a given, but I for one would love to see a mythical beast-themed land. Not sure if they could have characters like Percy Jackson or characters from the Pastoral scene in Fantasia or something not-ip related, but they really need to bring such a land to the park to life.

Idk about Encanto in Animal Kingdom. Colombia+animal theme park just clicks in my head as Pablo Escobar's private zoo and amusement park. You *don't* want that.

That’s actually a brilliant idea with the restaurant in the tree of life. I can definitely see it having like 5 floors which is insane to think about

I've been saying it for a little bit now, Animation Courtyard should become an extention of Mickey and Minnie's and develop into a new ToonTown (or personally id like to see it turn into to Duckberg). You can still keep some of the Disney Jr characters in place (or if you want, put them in that mini-land near Toy Story Land) but it should be a lot more focused on Mickey and Friends, maybe bringing back the old Mickey house they used to have, reusing the Star Wars Launch Bay as the interior.

Honestly Indiana Jones Adventure should be updated like crazy in the future. Considering all the effects and technology that went into the ride on opening day that have since been turned off or removed, they really should put some of those back in with more thought put into them.

My dream is that Disney Management spend 30mins to watch your vids, this one in particular. Lots of great ideas & suggestions my man!

Bob Chapek's potential early exit shows his vision doesn't match costumers idea of vintage Disney. But the digital media aspect has thrived atleast until now.

Chapek will be replaced soon, I’m afraid of who that person will be.

I’ve lived in Orlando 20 years. As a resident we loved the yearly 4 park pass and fast passes for residents. It was a tradition. But they took that all away for a reasonable price. We’ve since shifted totally to Universal. My kids don’t even ask to go to Disney anymore. It used to be such a special place to my family.

As far as a DCA name change, I could see "Disney's Cinematic Adventure". Brings in the movie theme, isn't too big of a change (similar to MGM and Hollywood Studios), and you could still keep the DCA acronym.

I'll never be able to afford a trip to a disney park at this rate. Disney is pricing out the middle class. But then again, at this point, do they even deserve our money?

You lost me the second you mentioned getting rid of Star Tours. Star Tours may be old but it's a lot more fun than the new rides in Galaxies Edge. Especially Smuggler's Run. Smuggler's Run is a poorly executed simulator ride. It's like telling a whole family to play a Mario game. One person pushes the jump button, another person makes Mario run backwards and forwards and the rest of family get to sit in seat's that face the wall cannot see what's going on.

I predict more people will recognize your genius and comedy stylings.

Bob Chapek just screams corporate money man.

Why do people think (and insist) that Aladdin has anything to do with Morocco? 🤔

Great insight as ALWAYS! I just hope that some joy and Disney magic can be salvaged. Scary what's been happening!

I just opened KZfaq because I wanted to not think for a while and seeing this pop up on the top of my screen was just PERFECT THANK YOU

I’m still hoping they might build a third resort in the US at some point in the future. Disney World is getting over crowded and it would be super cool to get a modern Disneyland/MK like park somewhere in the US. I’m personally rooting for Texas (mainly because I live there), but logically it also makes sense from cheap land to mostly good weather.

The whole 'boneyard as an indy dig site' idea never occurred to me! You're right, that would be a prefect retheme

I hope, although it's not likely, they bring the originally planned Beastly Kingdom for Animal Kingdom, it would be so good

What will disney do in the future. I do not know. This is not want Walt Disney wanted. Fire people Walt Disney was all about fun. The future looks grim. But keep moving forward. Disney world is my park. Things don't look good.

The Aladdin/Morocco thing seems like it would fit, however would make a lot of people angry. The movie Aladdin takes place somewhere in the Arabia/Turkey/previous Ottoman Empire area. The ottomans had a huge stretch of territory owned, but never really conquered Morocco. In those times, both were Islamic nations, but completely different. They could retheme Morocco to Turkey, however that would have MANY more problems (besides making Moroccans angry) which I don’t even want to start to get into

I’d definitely believe that some sort of ‘submarine voyage’ successor would come to the Seas in that EPCOT 2.0 project. There’s a perfectly good spot for expansion to the west of the pavilion, just sayin’…

If DCA wants to do an expansion to the Avengers Campus than they could add a WadaVision ride which can replace Monsters Inc the ride

I'm curious of how losing their tax status with Florida will affect Disney World in the next few years

if they include gumbo on the menu, theyre going to need more than salt an pepper seasoning

At D23 Disney will announce a bunch of new attractions, only for half of them to be cancelled three months later. Splash Mountain could get it's makeover next year, so it can reopen on December 11th, 2024 on the 15th anniversary of the Princess and the Frog's release. Alternatively it could be in 2029 or on it's 20th anniversary.

I really enjoyed It's Tough To Be A Bug when I went to Disney World a few years ago. The various shows with extra interative elements are cool. The bit with the seats in It's Tough To Be A Bug was really cool.

Now this is an interesting comment request, per the modern state of Disney, I’d love that this pricing out strategy backfires horribly, in a way that bring the prices down, hopefully nothing serious. Now on with the parks, which in my personal case is DAK and DHS Animal kingdom: - I hope dinoland stays, but chester and hesters goes away, my new vision of new dinoland is basically the best outdoor natural history museum/ dino park in the world, but with real prehistoric animals, and make Disney the accurate dinosaur counterpart to universals movie Dino experience, give a nice walkthrough attraction that’s easy to update due to new discoveries, I’m thinking something of a dinosaur experience akin to a traveling dinosaur expo i saw in the UK a couple years ago (If you know the name, please reply), while you have the thrill ride on the back. - I hope encancto comes as it’s a really interesting integration with the park, as they can showcase South American animals in it, although the movie didn’t touch the animal topic too much, but hey a man can dream, and it can have good “fast food” integration with arepas (which are venezuelan) and salchipapas, and as casa Madrigal as a small walkthrough or omnimover attraction. -Tree of life, personally update and leave it as it is, or if you REALLY have to put it out, a bug themed restaurant, in vain of honey I shrunk the kids and it’s tough to be a bug. Hollywood studios: -Expand sunset boulevard, and put the muppet show there, while also putting a movies centered attraction, omnimover. While putting the classic restaurants, brown derby, etcetera, there. -Indy, and star wars “share” the muppet and echo lake space, hell it would be amazing if you entered the indy land through an airport/airfield and enter star wars through the battu trees, keep the stunt spectacular, put the temple of the forbidden ride, and finally a museum (restaurant) that ties to SEA with a character encounter, and put the bantha attraction, hey i just realized, you could do the peoplemover in the following way, elephant when you enter from indiana jones, and banthas when you exit/enter through galaxy’s edge. Please let me know what you think

All I care about at this point is a new tomorrow land at Disneyland. And a new Matterhorn. I’d do anything to ride the people mover with my Dad one more time! Please Disney start it soon….👍🏻

I've always been concerned with Tomorrowland's development on both coasts. Maybe including more EPCOT-like attractions could keep it tasty like salt and pepper.

Im more stressed in my vacation at disney that i am relaxed at this point

Correct me if I’m wrong but they can’t rebuild the Matterhorn because it’s too small of a space to rebuild it up to code. Building code is stricter today than in 1959 and they would require a wider base.

Honestly, they just need to hire you for theme park planning. All of your ideas have me yelling "YAAAS" at my screen lmao

And for those curious... Paychek isn't going anywhere. And to the people that say, "But... he doesn't really help make anything." Untrue. He helps Disney make money. And he shamelessly does it by doing what no one else would have the guts to do... By taking a free ride on the gravy train built by the Disneys, Eisner, Wells, Katzenberg, Lasseter, Iger and a host of talented Imagineers. And after 3 or 4 more years of coasting and creative corporate accounting, he'll do what most soulless, corporate executives do... He'll retire with more money than he and his family could ever spend in their lifetimes. And salt and pepper.

Great video! Keep em coming. You’re shirt looked awesome with the green screen in back haha

I would want more than anything else to get an Indiana Jones land in Animal Kingdom! It’s what Eisner originally envisioned, you could replace Dinosaur with a reskinned Indiana Jones Adventure, and change the rest of Dinoland U.S.A to be an Indy-exploration-jungle area. Ahhh that would be so cooool!

Okay, so if you DID get to choose the future of Disney, what would this video look like? I generally agree with your takes so please, let me dream :P

I think Disney california adventure could be renamed to Disney‘s experience and discovery park or just D.E.A.D. for short. I think this is able to tie everything together from getting to go and discovery new places like in avengers campus and radiator springs and the redwood forest while also having the experiences of soarin and pixar pier and everything else in the park.

I suspect Disneyland Forward would likely borrow a lot from the upcoming Tokyo Disney Sea Fantasy Springs

Off Hand Disney > Current Disney I’m a former Disney enthusiast. I’ve unsubscribe from the vast amounts of Disney content creators. I’m just done with it all… except OHD and 2 others 😆

Disney has pretty much lost what made the magic to begin with. The thing that made me notice was the meet and greet characters, disney is pretty much phasing out all the animated classics with cartoon designs, and is just going more and more human characters. Yeah its nice to meet captain america or something, but I know its just an actor. I can at least pretend mickey has jumped off the page, and im able to meet him. Its just that lack of love for anything actually artistic, that just makes how soulless disney is so apparent.

Why can't we have it both way where Star Tours gets moved to the other side of Galaxy's Edge AND Muppet Courtyard can get it's dark ride.

Muppet vision 3D is my favorite attraction and I live in constant fear about its fate

Disney needs to focus on bringing down prices, FIRING Bob Chapek, refocus on family, LOSE going woke, and fixing the overall experience.

Disneyland! Keep your hands OFF all our Walt created rides and attractions and lands!

Meaning to be helpful and not to be “that guy”, but Zootopia land is going in at Shanghai, not Hong Kong.

Thanks for the Magic candle code! I've made like 8 purchases in the past few months and you've saved me a ton of money. For that i am eternally grateful

I have a feeling that Bob Ch. is going to ruin Disney's reputation!

The Disney company can use the Zootopia land from Shanghai, Disneyland using the train to get to that area of the park. It would be a simple solution to add more IP to the Animal Kingdom Park

Your Hawaiian blue mickey shirt blended in. Call it Mickeyflage.

I'd love to see more of puppet Kermit in your videos, it was always funny when he appeared in your "Old" videos as an assistant *[ Salt And Pepper ]*

Offhand and the magic candle company go together like salt and pepper ✨

Animal Kingdom: can do a sort of Latin America area that has Coco theming in it (the animals that cross them over) and Encanto. 5th gate: should be a Villain's themed Park Muppet Movie Ride would be incredible.

I don’t really agree just because I think I’ll get rid of Disneylands classic feel who knows I’ll give them a chance, but just I think they should keep Matterhorn as long as they can just because how historic the track is since being Arrows first coaster, and it’s kinda of an enjoyable jerky, I guess everyone has there preference. I also don’t agree with changing DCAs name theme as well just because I think Buena Vista Street and Cars land (“idk how but Cars land is based on rote 66 very Cali”) I think it would still look out of place. I would like the California theme of the park to return, partially because I think Soarin over Cali is better than Around the World lol. I think what they should do with Avengers ampus I think they should make it a San Fransisco feel like in the Avengers video game like an all new original story I think It would give it some character. Maybe a Big hero 6 themed coaster could work as well.

What ever new rides they build from here on out, will probably be screen-based, as well be set in IPs.

I know you mentioned lots of E-ticket attractions coming to the Disneyland expansion but I would lovee to see that expanded upon and have a bunch of rollercoasters coming to Anaheim. Maybe something similar to islands of adventure in Orlando. Disney has never been at the top of the list when it comes to rollercoasters but we know that they CAN make some really fun coasters with incredible (lol) theming. I want more of that pls

Not afraid to say it on these very friendly Disney info channels anymore. The company is stepping on the toes of people it shouldn’t, and until they put themselves back in line they won’t recieve another dime of my money. They’re an entertainment company, nothing more. Lately they’ve tried flexing their power muscle and we’re all seeing how thats working out for them.

I think a lot of your ideas remind me of WDWCentral

A 'Doctor Strange', 'Haunted Mansion' style darkride attraction could feature projection-mapping effects & trackless vehicles similar to 'Mystic Manor'. You could go thru the Marvel miltiverse, maybe wesr 3D glasses & have trippy visuals. Something goes wrong where you're sent thru & across the multiverse. Near the end, Doctor Strange ends up rescuing you & sending you back to your reality.

Bobby boy needs to lower prices other wise no would will be able to go by the time these open based off how the prices have been lately

The Matterhorn is absolutely my favorite Disney ride ever. After what they’ve done to my boo Epcot, if they were to ever get rid of it, that would be theeee end for me! Blasphemy to even speak on it lol You raise a lot of really great points here, as usual, particularly with respect to the more long term possible projects. I’m definitely hoping DAK gets a new land - during a sit down with Rohde like 5y ago, he was real excited about a Zootopia concept in DAK, as well as mentioning an Australia retheme idea for Dinoland. They need to do something to that 🦕 side of the park though, not add more to Africa/remove Rafiki imho My thing though with Disney adding IP into the parks is they’re not doing it in a reasonable time period - they want to add IP 5-10 years after the content was at its peak, and by that time the audience that loved it most has grown up. Or otherwise moved on. Pandora/Avatar, Tron, Ratatouille, even Guardians fall into that category to a degree Encanto could be good somehow combined with Coco theming but in 10y? Come on, gotta more quicker than that 😆

Disney’s board members need to get rid of Chapek and Floridians need to get rid of DeSantis because neither one of them are good for the progress or future of Florida.

I definitely think Pixar Pier will be given an expansion or absorb the rest of the former Paradise Pier at some point. Considering the fact that Mickey Mouse still dominates the side of the Pixar Pal-Around as well as the Silly Symphony Swings, Golden Zephyr and Goofy's Sky School. Now Golden Zephyr I could see being themed to a Buzz Lightyear attraction (based on the 2022 film?) and maybe retheme the Silly Symphony Swings to UP? As for Goofy's Sky School, that one's tricky. Perhaps if Mike & Sully to the Rescue is removed in favor of an Avengers Campus expansion, they could retheme that to Monster's Inc? Or they could retheme it to one of Pixar's newer films like Luca or something. It would make sense.

The only thing I'm not convinced about is Encanto at DAK. I have no doubt it's coming in some form or fashion, I'm just not sure how it fits with the animal theme. Other than that, your predictions seem pretty on point. This video added spice to my day like salt and pepper!

For Animal Kingdom since Disney owns Fox, I believe a good replacement for DinoLand would be Ice Age since it's about extinct animals and still fits within the animal theme of Animal Kingdom

Zootopia will be opening in Shanghai not Hong Kong !!! HK will be getting frozen (while facing the tomorowland problem of its own)

Black panther actually DOES intefier as it is featured as a poster at Islands of adventure

Walt Disney would be so sad

The Everest Yeti is the Florida version of California People Mover

Just say no to Zootopia!

You are the salt of the earth, and pepper your videos with so much information.

I used to work at the Golden Vine Winery in DCA and I always thought they should retheme it to Luca inspired and even the Pacific Wharf buildings look like the town in Luca to match! Plus all the restaurants in cannery row can be rethemed to Pixar, like Cocina Cucamonga can be Coco and Lucky Fortune Cookery into Harryhausens from Monsters inc. Also for the rides on Pixar pier like Jumping jellyfish can be easily turned into a Nemo ride as well as the golden zephyrs into the spirit of adventure from Up!

The American Adventure is inspirational, but it's starting to get old. If I were in charge, I would have Uncle Sam be the host, more scenes with anamtronics, and have the statues come to life.
