Pixar Pier (2018)

[Ryan]

Here's an idea: let's not do it and leave it be, with adding rides without the pointless redressing made to satisfy Lasseter's drunken ego.

Great idea, me.

Chapek: "Paradise Pier will become Pixar Pier!"

Fans: "uhh... why?"

Spirit was pretty much dead on when he said Chapek is IP-fueled.

Chapek comes from the Disney store if I remember correctly, so his expertise is in pushing IP product as it stands anyway.

Although I don't know that Chapek is 100% calling the shots as much as taking orders to infuse more IP into the parks.

What if the entire Fun Wheel became the Luxo Ball, not just the center?

Oh no... don't say that.

The mental image I got is not the same exact thing that you mean... I legit just pictured the Fun Wheel being inside a ball instead of just having a flat surface :cautious: :bonk:

Stop. Now.

It's a terrible digi-bash that I made, but I am willing to put money down on it. This is what I think Pixar's Fun Wheel will look like.

 

[Wesker69]

THAT. LOOKS. TERRIBLE. .....and tacky. very very tacky.

Sooo where is the petition to sign in order to "SAVE MICKEY'S FUN WHEEL FROM PIXAR-GGEDON"?

...well having DCA as a good theme park was a nice five years.

And even worse, DCA is out of expansion plots for the most part... Only Bug's land/behind GotG and the Hollywood Studios section are left as areas to be redeveloped really.

I do assume if they absolutely need it, that places along the Pier could be expanded for another major ride eventually. Take Goofy's Sky School out for instance and there could be some rooms for a decent ride. But they're ruining the Pier right now as it is so who cares.

Reading about this on a number of sites, this appears to be the most unpopular redo/expansion in many a year. Haven't read more than a couple of posts, anywhere, that like this idea.

I think Tower had a much more negative reaction. People are just numb to it by now. It's an abusive relationship.

Tower at DCA was always so meh though anyway... I like Mission: Breakout quite a bit better.

We'll that's your opinion. Tower had plenty of fans.

I'm not saying it didn't, but without the fifth dimension scene, the ride simply wasn't as special as it should've been. Now shoehorning in the IP rather than a new build isn't my preferred option, but I always thought that DCAs Tower was lacking. I thoroughly enjoyed MB when I rode it a few weeks ago (did 3 of the 6 ride profiles)

At night with the lights on, probably. Hopefully not during the day.

That's what I think the new paint job will be. Visible both day and night.
