... so all this plussing makes me wonder how many more ex MW peeps migrated to DW joining Greg Yong? (A lot of the good ones it seems!) The Park has not looked this good in years and with what 2020 has in store, dare I say probably not since decades ago when Longhurst walked.. Impressive stuff!

- New path under Giant Drop - Shaded Seating Area opening soon? - New SV video and no store exit

I guess we're just going to have to wait until the photos are rendered into a video, watermarked and then uploaded to youtube, and then screenshotted to be posted here.

For those fortunate enough to have already experienced it, all indications are Disney has pulled off something truly ground breaking that will leave People's heads spinning and wanting to get back in line. Register the link below to watch it's official opening tomorrow.. After wild speculation, 15 minutes should be the total duration - that's assuming no down time, which no doubt can and will be caused by the ride's multi-experience nature and unpredictability of Guest's speed of safe transition point to point. With so many transition points, I envisage likely stoppage areas will be mainly the Initial ship launch, departure from the Holding Cells aboard the Trackless portion, the base of vertical accents from ATT fighters and awaiting entry to drop shaft back to Batuu. All possible delays of being caused (potentially) by unfreed blocks to the next section and of course proximity sensor failure (which the ride will no doubt have shit loads of). Sooooooo many blocks, and 'trim station' like hold up points, this thing will be every true Theme Park Lover's wet dream come true... I'm going to hold off for May to visit Disneyland and give em time to iron out the bumps myself. Who else is excited? Personally I Can't f*cking WAIT!!!!

I can literally go there once every three or so days and something new is always happening. It’s crazy when you consider how stagnant the Village parks have been in doing general works around the park.

Wow, I don’t remember the last time (in recent years) there were so many things happening within one of our parks and the majority of them are good things too.

Given a significant number of the other park's major rides don't have much life left in them (HWSW and debatably GD) or have already been ripped out (TOT, Wipeout, TRRR), you may have to take direct replacements of all those attractions into consideration (given the plan for the old boneyard previously cleared for the lazy river will still be for WWW expansion). A large chunk of what Ardent is investing right now is directed towards replacing the old rides that arent in DW's best interest to maintain any longer. Assume the coaster will trade with TOT (an investment probably targeted as such). A potential thrill ride would trade with Wipeout, and a potential family ride of reasonable size could be a direct replacement for TRRR. Then you would have to consider replacements for the inevitably retired HWSW (new coaster or another WWW tower) and GD (new drop tower or a Sky Jump conversion). This current $50+ million investment package I expect to last until at least the end of next year, given there are still a number of announcements to be made. Regardless of time frames it should be made loud and clear to Ardent that this investment isn't a one off thing, it needs to be made on a consistent basis over time, otherwise the park will return to a situation which it was in only a year ago. So basically, what I am saying is that management need to think ahead and realise that they will soon have to invest in replacements for two of their major thrill rides that won't be around in 5 years' time.

I am also pretty impressed with how this seating area has turned out. I had very low expectations for that area, but it’s pretty decent for what it is. @Gold Coast Amusement Force were the videos on SV an improvement, informative and rewatchable?

That poor jpeg never even had a chance
