Incredicoaster does close during World of Color.

That’s going to suck once the clocks change with trying to ride at night.

Incredicoaster does close during World of Color.

Confirmed from tonight’s first show?

In the past, I believe only TSMM on the pier stayed open during WOC.

I think he was saying the rumor is incorrect that some thought with the enhancements the coaster could stay open.

I know post a little while ago about negative trends for Captain Marvel but presales seem to be doing pretty well

Here's a hopeful, speculative take on what that new "play pavilion" coming to Epcot might entail:

No, they really needed to get rid of Dragon Challenge. It didn’t dual anymore due to flying debris injuries”.

Disagree. Dueling was better, but they lost the best thrill "g" coaster(s) in Orlando IMO. Hulk doesn't "duel" so coasters are fine by themselves.

The new family coaster will be fun, and needed- but still comes at a a big expense.

I believe the new Jurassic Park coaster is supposed to be very thrilling - so I think that one will more take the place of that element of Duelling Dragons (not that it will duel, just more extreme coaster)

That is one serious stretch of an article. I would agree there could definitely be an interactive element to the place. I can't really imagine they aren't going to at least re-purpose the "Body Wars" area - which currently is behind walls. I know they supposed raided all the simulators for parts for Star Tours, but there's still an area back there with 6 simulators bays. Wonder if we'll get more at D23. I am picturing that Disney just released this glimpse to steal a little thunder from the Hagrid Coaster...the timing is too spot on to not be purposeful.

Good to hear.

But is that still losing the original J Park ride for that one? The old eatery area?

I just wish they were able to add rides, not take away so I'm hopeful on that one. Or at least take away crummy ones.

It is largely going by where the old triceratops meet was and I think will require moving the Rapter encounter .... I don't think anything major is being replaced so this is more of a net addition

The new Jurassic park ride is supposed to be along the water front. Thats where they are clearing land for it.
