Did anyone see the Powerline concert? :clap:They should've had the Goofy & Max characters dancing,

No Spider-Man at the live action panel. Setting the bar low for later tonight.

Supposedly The Jungle Book has insane CGI, hopefully that and the Civil War trailer leak soon.

Star Tours to be updated in sync with new films

Toy Story land announced. Slinky roller coaster and Green Aliens mater ride.

The Slinky coaster looks pretty decent with all that airtime. If that's it for DHS, I was expecting a lot more.

Soarin' Around the World was announced:

"Guests at Epcot in Florida and Disney California Adventure in California will journey to far-flung lands, fly above some of the world’s most unique natural landscapes and soar over man-made wonders when the new Soarin’ Around the World makes its debut next year."

From the Parks Blog

EDIT



I thought it was interesting that the tweet calls it Soarin' Over the Horizon. Do we know which name is the official one?

I'm sorry, even with the Star Tours update. The ride system sucks so bad imo. I was expecting more to be announced.

 

[Nick]

You guys were expecting too much if you were expecting more than Star Wars Land and TS Land. I honestly didn't even think we'd get a full on SW Land announcement (with concept art!) so that was actually a pleasant surprise.

I think the Star Wars land stuff looks and sounds amazing.

Did they confirm whether the new Soarin film will be digital, and better yet, 3D?

DCA got a digital upgrade recently, so yes. The third theatre at Epcot is expected to be built digital from the start. They'll likely close the other two theatres at Epcot one at a time for upgrades after the third opens.

And as for 3D, no. Flight of Passage will be your 3D flying ride.

Given that DCA already installed digital projectors, Epcot has to follow.
