2. ZOOTOPIA is not a good fit in any way for the "theme" of that theme park.
I think that would greatly depend on the execution more so the IP.

Except DAK is about real animals, not anthropomorphic animals.I think that would greatly depend on the execution more so the IP.

TLK could’ve easily had a ride built where the DAK Club 33 is being built. It’s frustrating that prime expansion space is going towards something like that.And the bigger question: why would you reach for ZOOTOPIA when you have THE LION KING and THE JUNGLE BOOK at your disposal, both of which would be perfect contenders for rides?

No one believed Guardians going into TOT when it was first rumored. But also, how much control/say does Rohde have for projects in DAK? This is something I believe he would fight very heavily, especially since he made those comments on social media after the nondescript coaster quote.Come on guys why would believe a stupid rumor like that ? :thud:

Mythical creatures have always had a place in the park, which originally were to be Dragons and eventually became Pandora. Zootopia would be DAK jumping the shark in terms of theme.Like dragons and aliens and cartoons?
Rohde has very little control in the grand scheme because, as we saw with Pandora, when Bob Iger says to do something, you do it.No one believed Guardians going into TOT when it was first rumored.

Perhaps, but I think you kind of have to bend over backwards to force that IP into something relevant to the core messages of the park. And then the question becomes this: would Disney bother to do that? After Frozen Ever After (which could have easily tied into Norway explicitly with a tweak of the storyline), I'm skeptical they would make that effort.
What are they doing with Epcot ???Considering what they're doing with Epcot I really don't think that they care about the message of their parks anymore. Id fully expect Zootopia here, whether its right or wrong.
Well, Guardians and Frozen aren’t really on brand with what Epcot was all about. We don’t know details on Guardians however. Nothing is very educational about either, nor is Frozen’s setting a real place but they stuck it into Norway with no connection to the real country at all.What are they doing with Epcot ???
Because we truly won’t know till D23 which is about two weeks away.
Epcot hasn’t been like that in a very long time unfortunately. But I think people are speaking a little too prematurely on what the full overhaul actually entails.Well, Guardians and Frozen aren’t really on brand with what Epcot was all about.

I can't say I love it but it also doesn't bother me that they're doing it. Now if Wakanda gets added...The weird thing about Epcot is that it has been like that for a long time. Not because they've tried to keep it that way but because they haven't put in the time or effort to expand the park.
Now that they're actually building stuff again, the general theme is out the window.
Personally, I don't care. I'm happy enough for Frozen to go into Norway, Rat to go into France, Mary Poppins into the UK. As long as the IP is at least somewhat relevant and they're fun or good additions, I don't have a single issue with it.
