So this is a third gate, correct? It feels so limited. Cool! But limited.
Holy crap... looks really cool. Connected to both parks is strange... maybe only people with 2 park passes can access? Like an extreme version of Hogwarts Express
No, just expansion for the existing parksSo this is a third gate, correct? It feels so limited. Cool! But limited.
Its basically a third park. There is a lot of land from the picture and hopefully Disney make Tron have some sort of games like Nintendoland. That would be very good use of the smaller space they have.Yeah, I think it's way too soon to peg this as actual theme park expansion. There doesn't seem to be enough practical space for a real third gate, so if anything, this will likely be limited to large expansions to the existing parks. (Which would also be welcome!)
I would hate living five feet from that proposed expansion.
It’s very specifically called out as expansions to DCA and DL.Its basically a third park.

Me? Tons of Disney fansHow this would even work is beyond me. Would access be only based on park hoppers? This is nuts.
Has its own gate, doesn't have to fit Disneyland/DCA themes and cost money to enterIt’s very specifically called out as expansions to DCA and DL.
Also none of the properties in it should be seen as anything but examples of what could come. This thing is a vision plan, not an actual plan.
If it's theoretical, then why announce it this early. You're setting people up for dissapointment.No, just expansion for the existing parks
Also it’s basically just theoretical
The same reason every company ever releases the “this could be us but you taxing us too much” plan: to strongarm the local governmentIf it's theoretical, then why announce it this early. You're setting people up for dissapointment.
EDIT: Also why do this when so many other attempts to make Disneyland a global resort destination have fallen short, any especially when you still have important pre-existing areas to grow in like
A. The unused areas of Fantasyland
B. The area behind Pixar Pier
C. Hollywoodland
D. The rapidly aging Tomorrowland
Ah, devilishly delightful.The same reason every company ever releases the “this could be us but you taxing us too much” plan: to strongarm the local government
