Originally Posted By dennis-in-ct Thank you for sharing the news. Seriously ... at this point - after all these years - I will be happy to see *anything* there except a playground.

AND family friendly The new Harry Potter ride / land is coming out by then, no? I wonder if beacause of the Harry Potter land at IOA if this Tommorrowland deal will turn into to something *really* big. The MK is really staganet. The last time I got real excited was when SPASH and ToT opened around the same time. I would like to see a new surge of development. I want to be WOWED .. I want to get off something and think "I can't belive they DID that". I want to ride an attraction and "can't believe my eyes".

Originally Posted By figment1986 Hasn't a rumor of one type of another been saying something about the old Skyway building and Galaxy palace theater... It could work, use the skyway for the queue and go around Carousel Of Progress to a new building for the new attraction. However this could just be a blue sky rumor, Spirit or anyone else, do you know more?

Otherwise it's back to the hotel pool or a nap. I don't like rollercoasters, but I don't say "tear them all down, & don't build any more."

However from what I understand that was shelfed for several reasons (too expensive, Universal snatched the rights to the robot arm tech, etc.) so I am hoping this is a completly original ride. What is interesting is that according to Al Lutz..Tony Baxter is planning to add a new eticket to Disneyland's tomorrowland in a similar location. Will it be the same ride built at both locations (like toy story mania and ratatouille coaster?) Will it be incredibles themed (I hope not)? Will it be an original attraction (I hope so!)? Only time...and maybe a spirit..will tell!
