    That is an original Disney concept, as far as preserving and reusing viable trees when possible from a construction area. Disney himself and his engineering team saved many trees from construction sites to reuse in the Disneyland parks, to save money on buying new trees.

    Villain’s land is an extremely foolish idea. Anyone who knows of the life and character of Walt Disney would quickly tell you that Walt never would have entertained such an idea but rather, would have thrown it out upon its first suggestion. Walt Disney has always been all about the story, and his stories were always about how somebody – some good person – in a difficult situation would overcome evil, and that’s the only reason why the villains were in the stories. The stories were never intended to be all about the villains, and that’s what the current Disney board has done. Villan’s land will forever change the character of The Magic Kingdom. It will no longer be the happiest place on earth. Rather, it’ll be some kind of perversion of Walt’s dream. It may end up being the saddest place on Earth, but if Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is any indication, it will most certainly be the most boring place on Earth.

      I so wish everyone would stop saying stuff like, “oh walt would reject that, or walt would never do that.” He said that the park would forever evolve. This is part of that. If you don’t like the idea, that’s fine. But don’t think that Walt wouldn’t be in on things if they made him money. That’s a wise tale to think a business man wouldn’t change to make more. Nobody goes to old, static parks, and then they are forced to change. I hate they took out the rivers, but it wasn’t a used area, give that something new and see what happens. To say Tiana is boring just shows how much you disliked the ride in the first place, as it is exactly the same, except the characters. Anyone who is not happy with progress should rethink their DIsney fandom. It’s going to change, it’s gotta change. Or it’ll lose money. Even Walt knew that.

        They’re right and there’s no Villains Land ever coming to WDW. It’s a hoax. The Rivers of America is open right now and always will be. Oh and Walt is dead and the idea of the parks always evolving died with him. It’s over. When I take over Disney, it will abandon that philosophy in favor of the Make Disney Great Again philosophy and go backwards by bringing back old things and staying stuck in the 20th century. Nobody wants to visit static parks? I do. And so do millions of others. The Disney name is enough and people will visit any park carrying a Disney name. Disney under me will also only cater to the purists and traditionalists and treat the parks as private members only clubs. Oh and there is no Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, Splash Mountain is alive and well in the US. I was at WDW’s 75th and can confirm that WDW has been rewound back to the 1980s and 90s and is thriving again.
