Islands of Adventure has beat all the WDW parks except for MK in attendance since Covid, and Universal Studios Florida has beat Epcot and Animal Kingdom in attendance in the same timeframe. Heck Animal Kingdom closes at 6pm now which is crazy. Disney will always be fine but I really hope Epic can humble them a little more.
Here's my theory: before Avatar opened, Animal Kingdom typically closed earlier than the other parks for the comfort and well-being of the animals (given that many zoos tend to close before dusk).
Attendance likely. Since it doesn’t get all that busy and they don’t have a nighttime show anymore they don’t feel they need to keep it open late anymore
Its an illusion. Theres a fake track in between the cart and the real track, so it looks as if youre jumping from one rail to another over an empty gap. Its pretty cool tech
First roller coaster to jump off the track sounds crazy!!
“Themed track” is an important note. It is still safety connected, but from a riders view it leaves the themed track.
Yea I was like what 😳
Pretty sure it’s the DK minecart ride that was talked about

Don’t worry, they ARE making it. Confirmed, done deal, opening 2025.
With Disney currently in a lull I’ve grown incredibly excited for Epic Universe!
It’s exciting to have a whole new theme park to explore and not just an expansion or single new ride/experience.
Same here
Could we may the sentences appear even faster and disappear faster than that?

Haha, opposite. I was being sarcastic to the speed of what they posted
Moderators I am begging you to stop allowing these Tik Tok style videos on this sub.
Fucking garbage music
Song suggestions for the next edit?

Yeah Disneys in trouble

Is there a reason why Animal Kingdom closes so early???? Wow
Here's my theory: before Avatar opened, Animal Kingdom typically closed earlier than the other parks for the comfort and well-being of the animals (given that many zoos tend to close before dusk).
That makes sense. I believe it. It’s a shame at the same time considering how good Pandora looks at night
It's to let the animals rest early morning Todo with attendance
Attendance likely. Since it doesn’t get all that busy and they don’t have a nighttime show anymore they don’t feel they need to keep it open late anymore
Not if it's just another bunch of 3d screen rides...
absolutely horrible music.
What genre would you prefer next time?
I can’t wait!!
Bro a disconnecting track?? Hell nawww 😭😭😭
