    Phoenix Rising Family Coaster Coming to Pantopia in 2024

    Looking very forward to doing this one at Howl-o-Scream this year. Hopefully it is easier on the head than the Vekoma family inverts.

    Toy Story 5 (2026)

    How about Chew Toy Story? Explores the life of toys whose purpose is to be ripped apart by our beloved pets.

    How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk (Epic Universe)

    How long will it take for people to turn it into a game of who can throw their coins into the top basin? And let’s hope that’s the only place in this area that the coins go…

    How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk (Epic Universe)

    Eh, I do think it’s going to have the same problem Islands has where a lot of rides shut down when lightning rolls in, but that’s true of pretty much any non-Disney/Universal park.

    Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

    Whoops, posted in wrong thread: Speaking of goodies, how could they miss the opportunity AGAIN to bring back Ecto Cooler?

    Rogue Squadron (2023)

    She also wrote Monster. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    General Movies & TV Thread

    This is why people shouldn’t always associate lower-budgeting with being financially wise. When we harp on studios for giving movies high budgets, this is typically the response where either the animation can get outsourced to international branches (Warner Bros./Illumination/Sony) or cheaper...

    Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse (2023)

    The notion that it is half a movie is a valid one (and this is coming from someone who felt it was his favorite movie of the year). There were a lot of open threads by the end of the film, not to mention that it initially had “Part 1” in its subtitle. Mission: Impossible-Dead Reckoning also...

    Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

    Crazy popcorn buckets, exclusive movie merch… Did I miss the day that theaters suddenly turned into tourist traps?

    Avatar: The Last Airbender (Netflix)

    An admirable attempt, Mr. Wesker. But you know that any thrill ride is a coaster in the eyes of the media. I mean, how long have us theme park geeks been beating the drum that land =/= theme park?

    Live-Action Lilo & Stitch

    Does anyone else think this will get upgraded to theatrical in the wake of the Moana news? Especially considering that Stitch is one of the biggest bankable characters overseas?

    Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)

    And so begins the onslaught of trailers and tv spots...

    New Jurassic World film (2025)

    Or they could just not make another movie. There’s always that option…

    Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024)

    A title like that makes it sound like they’re already gearing up for possibly doing a third film.

    Console Gaming (General)

    I don't think many people had high hopes for Suicide Squad... ...But WOW is that early feedback rough!

    And then watch the award go to Napoleon of all things.

    Dune: Part Two

    I always find it weird that runtimes for movies now get treated like it’s a big news story (and to be clear to the above poster, this is not directed at you). As if longer movies is supposed to come as some sort of shock to people. I mean, has anyone ever complained about the length of The...

    Percy Jackson and the Olympians

    This is neat. Have they done this before with a Disney+ show (exhibit and preview)? https://www.laughingplace.com/w/disney-parks/percy-jackson-and-the-olympians-walt-disney-world-preview-exhibit/

    WGA & SAG Strike of 2023

    I mean, if the actor/actress is actively giving their permission to use AI to replicate giving their likeness, then it doesn’t seem so bad to me. I can see a lot of benefit here in something like a video game based on a movie headlined by a star who’s usually too busy/expensive for games. Of...

    General Movies & TV Thread

    Agreed on Elemental. Far from Pixar’s best, but I can think of at least five films from them that I would rather not sit through again compared to this one. HUGE disagree on Luca, though. I thought that movie was absolutely adorable. Never watched The Bear, but it moved immediately up on my...
