Haunted Mansion, to Expedition Everest . . . the concept works. Because Disney's mandate is media synergy and cross marketing across all of its delivery platforms doesn't mean that every property needs to start with a film. Pirates showed how this pipeline can flow the other way--and I hope this upcoming "Haunted Mansion 2.0" will also do this. I could see the oft-wished-for Beastly Kingdom for the Animal Kingdom turning into a film franchise when and if it were ever constructed, for example. So I'm hoping that they are developing at least some attractions without prior media exposure . . . .Atomicmickeynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-8878151437854574982010-11-06T07:23:20.411-07:002010-11-06T07:23:20.411-07:00I vote for bringing Dinosaur to Disneyland as a Pr...I vote for bringing Dinosaur to Disneyland as a Primeval World attraction.

An attraction that, if it was themed to TRON, and TRON tanked at the theaters, would STILL be an OUTSTANDING new E-Ticket.<br /><br />Disney management is too fickle in their support for attractions. Some outstanding attraction concepts have gotten shelved because management second guessed the movie they were based on. <br /><br />Someone needs to have to gumption to just follow through on some of these great concepts IN SPITE of any film they may be based on.2.0 and Beyondnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-86907748918097712792010-11-05T17:25:02.380-07:002010-11-05T17:25:02.380-07:00The buzz for Tron is starting to feel a bit artifi...The buzz for Tron is starting to feel a bit artificial aka homegrown marketing hype.

I hope they are serious about it. They need to spend money on a BIG E-TICKET attraction instead of having minor C-Tickets like Buzz Lightyear, Rocket Jets, and Innoventions. <br /><br />Maybe they should stop messing with us. Just do it piece meal and over a 5 year period. That way, expectations are moderated and can build over time.NEW_NEW_NEW_TOMORROWLANDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-25854693470509060982010-11-05T09:31:29.549-07:002010-11-05T09:31:29.549-07:00This song just immediately popped into my head.

Here's hoping that the film is a good film and not just eye candy. Will it be another Pirates of the Caribbean, a worthy representation that feeds the parks? I'll believe it when I see it. I know that if I walk out of the theatre exhilarated, I'll be instantly looking for the Imagineers to take me to that world in the coming years.
