I have never seen these sticks, but these look like disasters ready to strike. I don't like the idea of the selfie, i don't like to be narcissistic, I just like to ride my attractions peacefully without sticks in my way. Is this a big thing at the WDW Properties yet? (I haven't been for the past 4 years sadly) #BanSelfieSticks!

I cannot honestly see Beast becoming a RMC attraction. Sure, the effects would be amazing, but The Beast is a classic woodie, and one of the more renowned at that. Now I could see RMC coming in and making a whole new attraction, maybe Son of Beast II, with the cork-screws, maybe the original loop even, but not on the scale that SOB was originally.

^^^Glad to see such a variation in the build of the superstructure. I guess that now leads to the question of what coaster model it will be; will it stay the original style or will it become something more like the INTAMIN models?

That's what I have been thinking but maybe contracts changed and Intamin was the likely candidate. Or possibly the tower itself is still UST and the attractions are by Intamin?

^From what I saw from TPR's Facebook the whole thing is an Intamin product.

I can't believe how much they are adding onto this complex. Now the world's tallest drop tower? I wonder just how they will incorporate this as it looks packed already.

I personally love the Hat, it was something that I thought was cool (Also where I bought probably about 20% worth of my Disney Pins). Yet at the same time, I always saw Disney's Hollywood Studios, MGM for the junkies, of having too many icons. Right when you enter you are greeted with about 2 icons, the Crossroads Pin Trading, and the Hat. If you go behind and more to the back, The Great Movie Ride and the water tower. The water tower seems to be one of those big iffy icons yet it is used occasionally as the Hat is used often. Do I think the removal is needed? Yeah I think it is time to see it go. It would make The Great Movie Ride plaza more and more spacious, more capable of hosting parades and meet n' greet areas for the characters as well. But hey, as long as they keep the Brown Derby, Star Tours and Twilight Zone Tower of Terror I will be happy to return to Hollywood Studios any day.

I love Doctor Who! I have a few theories about this Missy character. First off, let's refer back to the "Time Heist" episode. The Doctor rarely gives out his number to anyone period. Yet in "The Bells Of Saint John", we see that someone gave Clara his number. Now with buzz going on about "The Bells Of Saint John" episode and I have already been into it since that episode, here are a few of my theories: 1. River Song: Yes, old River is back, but is still in the "Library". You see, she has manipulated the system into extracting those who were in some sort of contact with The Doctor and is using it to eventually meet up with him. 2. The Master: This was one of those odd theories that I had pertaining to him and what could of happened. He could have come in contact with The Library or something of another sort to bring him almost back to life in a new form. This new form could very well be a new regeneration. Why a woman? This could be a coding element simply enough, or better yet possibly a regeneration trait? With 10-11's regen, 11 briefly states "I'm a girl?!", so that is a possibility. 3. The Doctor 2: In a few previous episodes it was stated that there are parallel universes and pocket universes. That would mean one could have an opposite in another universe, possibly who Missy is? 3.

That Bobsled Credit Thanks for the TR, I have never heard of the park and now I want to go to both the West and Europe in one day!

^I would have to disagree. As much as I would love to chow down on a KrustyBurger, and ride the coaster -o- death, I would rather see some of the already placed lands, more explicitly Jurassic Park, get some updates. In example, possibly get us a "tram" tour of the property, that, of course, goes hay-wire and goes into close quaters with the T-Rex(Or we could just hope for a coaster brought to us by Vekoma or B&M.). With the new JP film coming up I wouldn't be shocked if we get an attraction along with the new film.

Hello everyone! I didn't see a topic for this, but if there is I'm sorry for double posting! Here is where you can discuss any of the Tolkien books, movies, etc about The Hobbit, LOTR, and etc. I've been a fan of Tolkien's works for a while. My favorite book though has always been The Hobbit, only due to that it basically talks about Dwarves, and it accurately displays how I dislike Elves and love Dwarves more.

Just off the top of my head: Canada: Somewhere, preferably around the east coast, Quebec, or the north center of Canada, Mantiboa or Ontario, making it either very scenic, or filled with various ski hills. Germany: Alps Switzerland: Alps France: Alps Norway: I know, a bit north, right? Well Norway is now becoming a tad bit more of a destination, with a few new projected parks, Disney could easily make a northern foothold in the market by drawing people to the diverse climate of Norway. Plus, EPCOT has a Norway pavilion, so it has to be an option!

^It's strange that you mention that, KD's sister park, Kings Island, didn't have their Drop Tower running either the last that I have heard of it. Thanks for the PTR, it looks like KD really pulled out the stops for you guys at KD!

To think, just a few years ago that pool was a green sludge from Bing Maps, and now it looks like this! Kentucky Kingdom is truly going above and beyond what I thought they would do, and I'm very impressed!

Excellent PTR! I loved the photos, I never noticed just how photogenic Cedar Point is!

At first, I thought this was Ramen World! It looks truly amazing, but what really catches my eye is the British coaster.

Great coaster! I like the backstory to a classic, I look forward to riding it!

I would hate to see Maelstrom leave for Frozen. The attraction is priceless and effectively sends out the history of Norway, which is what World Showcase was made for, to tell the history of the cultures. Plus, I love Maelstrom, it is a fun and interesting ride for me, probably because I like Norsk culture........ Sure, it has Norsk traits, but in the long run, it doesn't send out the word that World Showcase was built for, yet, Disney wants to place it's movies in the parks, and I will just have to ride it sometime.

Please, just no. Do you like OSTRs?

It looks excellent! This reminded me a bit of Big Bad Wolf at BGW with the lake feature, and yet still looked like a fresh new coaster design!

It looks like they are making steady head way! I wouldn't be surprised if it would be completed in February of 2014. Though I am curious on the end product of Bat, will it be completed before or after Banshee?

This is hilarious! Thanks for posting, it is all to reminiscent to his on ride POVs that he has made!

At the same time, they could pull a 50th and use all of the doctors at once, possibly an attack during the shielding of Gallifrey? That would appeal to seniors, and the younger population who like the Doctor Who and watched them at any time period.

Should it be enacted? I cannot express this enough, yes! There is most definitely a fan base for it in the UK, in the USA there is a good portion of "fans", I being one. Where should such attraction be placed? I agree with others on that it should be in the UK, possibly at Alton Towers, that park has an amazing talent to make a guest feel like he or she is actually in the theme, most prevalent horror/sci-fiction genres. What kind of attraction could it be? I actually have to ideas for this, one being a movie attraction, Harry Potter or Spider Man attraction type(s), and or a launch coaster. The reason for a movie attraction, or an attraction with screens around you, is basically for the guest to feel like he or she is actually in the Tardis, or going with the Doctor on an adventure, possibly to stop the Daleks from taking over time itself. The reason for the launch coaster is that it is a coaster and it can easily use the theme. The Tardis is a vehicle which it does go at high speeds, which again could follow the Dalek idea, going through inversions, a Dalek ship, even go through the Gallifrey ruins if applicable. I would love to see this kind of attraction come to life, it would give me even more reasons to go to England .

I like the idea of this park! I have wanted to go to Norway for a time now, more than any other country in Europe, and this gives me a reason to go. Especially on how it is a favorite theme for me, Norse, it is really a great culture and it has deep roots in myth. I will be hopefully going in 2017!
