It seems odd that Frontierland would be the choice for expansion. It seems the logic is that it really currently only contains 2 thrill e-tickets and a AA attraction. Maybe they would want to make it more "kid friendly". Sorry to be rumor mongering but just want to get some more insight.

Originally Posted By MPierce I just don't see any expansion going on anytime soon anywhere but Fantasyland.

Heck, they won't even give the Jungle Cruise the major referb it needs. Plus nobody even knows what all will be involved in the Fantasyland expansion. I figure LeeMac can't comment on something like this, and Leehisownself has remained silent, and Spirit hasn't mentioned it. I just don't see it happening at all anytime in the near future.

Originally Posted By Lee hisownself I will say that there has been a lot of increased buzz about Frontierland lately, and there are some interesting blue sky (funny how that can be abbreviated as BS...) concepts floating around out there.

I'm gonna sit on the sidelines for this one until I get some more solid info. As solid as the dirt the are currently shovelling onto the Pixie Hollow plans... Ah, PH....we hardly knew ye...
Originally Posted By HokieSkipper ^^^^I love that post. Basically the approach I'm taking, although I do have a significant amount of hope. And I love that PH is dead.
Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer I've heard rumors. And some rumblings. I'm hopeful for it, but we will see. It'd be nice to get it piggy backing off what is coming to HKDL and perhaps Shanghai.

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer Think of what HK is getting. And perhaps what MK should have gotten in 1973 instead of Pirates. I shouldn't be saying this...

ORGOCH: Got rifles???
