In this episode, Chris Cochrane guest-hosts for his brother Ray and devotes the whole show to one event: Disney’s D23 2026 fan convention in Anaheim. Friday night delivered Marvel’s new X-Men cast, Adam Driver as Mister Sinister, a fresh Avengers: Doomsday trailer, and a release date for Frozen 3. Saturday turned to the parks, with Villains Land, an Indiana Jones dark ride, the long-awaited Expedition Everest yeti repair, and a Monsters Inc land opening in 2027. – Want to start a podcast?

Instead of six or eight unrelated stories, the entire episode covers Disney’s D23 convention, which he compares to Apple’s WWDC. For newcomers, he notes that D23 is Disney’s official fan club, named for the company’s founding year of 1923. This year’s event ran two nights at the Honda Center: Friday for movies and television, Saturday for the theme parks. Marvel Finally Casts the X-Men Friday’s headline was the X-Men. The Associated Press put the crowd near 12,000, and Marvel Studios used that stage to name its rebooted team. Christopher Abbott plays Professor Charles Xavier, Inde Navarrette plays Rogue, and Maya Boyd plays Storm. Adam Driver rounds out the group as the villain Mister Sinister. Meanwhile, Samara Weaving, Kit Connor, and Sadie Sink were already known as Emma Frost, Cyclops, and Jean Grey. Jake Schreier directs, and the film arrives May 5, 2028. Chris calls the lineup spot-on casting. He singles out Weaving as a perfect match for the comics, and he points out that Sink already appeared as Jean Grey in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Navarrette is the least established name, coming off a breakout role in an indie horror film. Boyd, meanwhile, was the name he knew least, with what he believes is a Broadway background. Above all, Chris hopes Marvel does the team justice, and he recommends the animated revival X-Men ’97 on Disney+ as the best place to start. Frozen 3 Gets a Date and a Chaotic Reveal Frozen 3 lands November 24, 2027. That is the Wednesday of Thanksgiving week, the same slot the first two films used. The story centers on Anna and Kristoff’s wedding, which a new villain, an evil Ice Queen, disrupts. Jennifer Lee returns to direct with Trent Correy, and the full voice cast is back. However, the reveal itself fell apart. Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel performed a darker arrangement of “Frozen Heart.” Meanwhile, the audio failed, the video failed, and a set of doors never opened. Menzel asked the crowd whether they should try it again, and Bell simply narrated everything that was supposed to happen. Afterward, Josh Gad sang “Oooh, Samantha,” a new love song for Olaf. Chris is here for it, since Olaf is one of the franchise’s best comic characters. Pixar, Disney Animation, and the Rest of Friday Night Pixar chief Pete Docter laid out a packed slate. Incredibles 3 hits summer 2028 and follows Violet and Dash sneaking out at night to fight crime. Chris hopes that finally shows a grown-up Jack-Jack. Coco 2 follows in November 2029 with Benjamin Bratt returning as Ernesto de la Cruz. That has fans puzzling over how a villain already in the Land of the Dead comes back. Additionally, Pixar showed an original called Ghost Market and a Venice-set cat film called Gatto. On the Disney Animation side, Zootopia 3 is confirmed. The live-action Tangled arrives March 31, 2028 with Kathryn Hahn as Mother Gothel. Chris considers that casting perfect after her turn in Agatha All Along. A live-action Lilo & Stitch sequel, a new Simpsons movie, a Bluey movie, and a Kingdom Hearts anime series round out the list. For Star Wars fans, Ahsoka returns January 20, 2027. Chris also offers a hot take: he prefers Rogue One to the entire sequel trilogy. Consequently, he welcomes original stories like Ryan Gosling’s upcoming Starfighter. Adam Driver Is Mister Sinister Driver appeared by video rather than in person. He told the crowd that he and Kevin Feige had talked for years about joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Then he announced he would play Magneto. After a long pause, he corrected himself to Nathaniel Milbury, which is Mister Sinister’s human alias. The gag landed because fans had floated Driver for Magneto for years. For anyone new to the comics, Chris explains that Mister Sinister is a geneticist obsessed with mutant DNA, a manipulator rather than a brawler. The cast met backstage only minutes earlier, so Chris is curious how their chemistry develops. Notably, Christopher Abbott previously worked with Driver on HBO’s Girls. The script comes from Beef creator Lee Sung Jin and The Bear co-showrunner Joanna Calo, two prestige-television names that have Chris excited. Why the X-Men Took Thirty Years to Reach the MCU A business story underlies the casting. In the 1990s, a financially struggling Marvel sold film rights to raise cash. Fox ended up with the X-Men and the Fantastic Four, and Sony took Spider-Man. As a result, Marvel Studios built its connected universe from 2008 onward without some of its most famous characters. The Hugh Jackman era of X-Men films belonged to Fox, with a separate continuity and no crossovers. That changed in 2019, when Disney closed its $71 billion purchase of 21st Century Fox’s film and television studio. Most coverage framed the deal as a streaming play, but it also brought the X-Men home. Chris sums it up neatly: Disney signed the paperwork in 2019, cast the film in 2026, and audiences see it in 2028. Ryan Gosling’s Starfighter, Ghost Rider, and VisionQuest Lucasfilm dated Star Wars: Starfighter for May 28, 2027. Gosling plays Kade Auberon, a pilot from the wrong side of the galaxy tied to the fastest starfighter ever built. Before he walked out, Disney played clips of him as a kid on The Mickey Mouse Club. Gosling said the company changed his life then and is changing it again now. He is also playing Ghost Rider in the Marvel universe. That thrills Chris, since Nicolas Cage last carried the character on the big screen. Meanwhile, the Disney+ series VisionQuest arrives October 14. Paul Bettany returns as Vision and James Spader as Ultron, and the trailer drops the two androids into oddly mundane human situations. Bettany joked that Vision has “rather inconveniently died several times.” Chris agrees the character has been through the wringer since WandaVision. The Avengers: Doomsday Trailer Avengers: Doomsday opens December 18, with Joe and Anthony Russo directing. Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, and Hayley Atwell introduced the new footage. It offers the clearest look yet at Downey as Doctor Doom, who fights off Thor and takes his hammer. Evans appears as Captain America holding a baby, and Ian McKellen shows up as a haggard, long-haired Magneto. One quieter shot has Doom staring at a portrait of a lost wife and child. That frames him as a grieving avenger rather than a world-ender. He also commands an army of comic-accurate Sentinels. The cast pulls from the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the legacy Fox X-Men, including Patrick Stewart. Hugh Jackman also appeared on screen to say he is willing to return as Wolverine, though that was not a confirmation. Chris, a self-described Marvel nerd, closes with a theory. He suspects the MCU’s Tony Stark was actually Victor von Doom, adopted by the Starks, which would explain the Downey casting. He also predicts the Fox-era X-Men die off in this film and that Thor may be the major casualty. If it happens, he wants credit for calling it.

Disney Parks Around the World Saturday’s Disney Experiences showcase covered parks, resorts, and cruise ships, with Neil Patrick Harris hosting. Hong Kong Disneyland gets an Avengers pavilion that reshapes its Stark Expo skyline. Shanghai Disneyland is building the first land devoted entirely to Spider-Man, complete with a new coaster. Since Spider-Man is his favorite hero, Chris hopes to visit once it opens. Closer to home, Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure is doubling in size with two rides opening in 2028. Avengers: Infinity Defense brings back Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, Chris Hemsworth, and Downey, while Stark Flight Lab adds Brie Larson. A Coco boat ride into the Land of the Dead is also coming, with no height requirement. Chris admits he prefers California Adventure to Disneyland because the rides are better. Overseas, Disneyland Paris will retire its Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain overlay at the end of 2027 and restore the original Jules Verne theme. Paris also gets the first ride ever based on The Lion King. Tokyo Disneyland adds Sugar Rush: Sweet Rescue, the first Wreck-It Ralph ride, plus a Space Mountain launch sequence designed with YouTuber Mark Rober. Finally, Disney Cruise Line announced three more ships, including the Disney Believe in 2027 and an entirely new class in 2029. Back in Anaheim, Tomorrowland is getting reimagined, which Chris welcomes because the land badly needs an update. The Magic Happens parade and the Remember Dreams Come True fireworks are both returning. For the tech crowd, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run now has a Fortnite crossover, where in-game missions unlock content on the real ride. Every New Walt Disney World Ride and Land Chris ranks the Florida parks Hollywood Studios first, then Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Magic Kingdom. Magic Kingdom leads the announcements with Villains Land, now the official name. It features a Maleficent coaster through an enchanted briar and a boat ride through the Evil Queen’s catacombs. Reporting puts its scale near Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and Glenn Close appeared in character as Cruella to announce it. Piston Peak, the Cars area replacing Tom Sawyer Island, adds two more rides, though their exact names remain unsettled. Additionally, the Carousel of Progress gets new scenes and a recast. Jamie Lee Curtis and Bryan Cranston will voice Mom and Dad starting late spring 2027. Chris, invoking Heisenberg, calls Cranston the GOAT. At Animal Kingdom, the Indiana Jones ride now has a name: Indiana Jones and the Myth of the Jade Serpent. It tells an original 1950 story inside a Maya temple, and Harrison Ford personally served as the physical model for the animatronic. Nearby, the Tropical Americas land brings Antonio’s Fiesta de Encanto, with more than fifty animal animatronics and no height requirement. Then comes the fix park regulars have wanted for years. The Expedition Everest yeti broke soon after the ride opened. Rather than fix it, Disney lit it with a strobe for over a decade, earning the nickname disco yeti. Now it is being repaired and returned to full motion. Chris rates Everest among his top five rides anywhere, and he suggests riding it before the fix so you can compare. Over at Epcot, Spaceship Earth gets its first major story rewrite in nearly twenty years, shifting from communication history to human connection. Dreamfinder also returns to Journey Into Imagination, and Disney Experiences chairman Thomas Mazloum introduced that news with two words: “we heard you.” Mazloum added that Disney has more projects underway than at any point in its history. After this rundown, Chris believes him. Monsters Inc Land Opens in 2027 Monstropolis begins opening at Hollywood Studios in early 2027, but in stages. The headline door coaster will not be ready on day one. It is the first suspended coaster in any Disney park. It also uses Disney’s first vertical lift, hauling riders about forty feet straight up before launching them into the door vault. Instead, the land opens with the Glob Theater’s “Welcome to Monstropolis” show and Harryhausen’s, a working sushi restaurant lifted from the first film. The stage show features an original song by Randy Newman, his first ever written for a theme park attraction. Chris also notes that the restaurant name honors stop-motion legend Ray Harryhausen. Wrapping up, Chris names the X-Men casting and the Doomsday trailer as his favorite moments of the weekend. He hopes to cover more movie news on future shows, and he plugs Dune: Part Three, which also opens December 18.

It's time for another Marvel Monday. This week, it's time to catch back up with Tony! ABOUT IRON MAN 2With the world now aware of his identity as Iron Man, Tony Stark must contend with both his declining health and a vengeful mad man with ties to his father's legacy.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR IRON MAN 2May 7, 2010 | TheatersCAST & CREW OF IRON MAN 2Robert Downey Jr. as Tony StarkGwyneth Paltrow as Pepper PottsDon Cheadle as RhodeyScarlett Johansson as Natasha RomanoffBRAN'S IRON MAN 2 SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off in Russia, where news has spread that Tony Stark is Iron Man. We meet Ivan Vanko, who is attempting to build an arc reactor like the one keeping Tony alive. His father, Anton Vanko, helped create the original arc reactor prototype alongside Tony's dad, Howard Stark.Six months later, Stark is constantly bragging that his Iron Man armor is helping maintain world peace. He's summoned to a government hearing where officials demand that he turn over the Iron Man technology. Tony's rival, Justin Hammer—now the military's main defense contractor—is also there. Hammer presents evidence showing that foreign nations are close to developing their own versions of Iron Man suits. Stark refuses to hand over the technology, insisting that other countries and competitors (including Hammer Industries) are decades away from recreating his work and that the armor is his personal property.Meanwhile, the core in the arc reactor that keeps Stark alive and powers the armor is slowly poisoning him. Believing he's running out of time, Tony suddenly names Pepper Potts the new CEO of Stark Industries and hires someone named Natasha Rushman as her replacement.After discovering he's more than 50% poisoned, Stark impulsively decides to drive in a Formula 1 race. Mid-race, Vanko shows up and attacks Tony with electrified whip weapons. The fight is intense, but Tony uses the Iron Man suit to defeat Vanko, who is arrested. However, Justin Hammer has Vanko's death faked and breaks him out of prison, recruiting him to help take Stark down.Feeling overwhelmed by his impending death, Tony throws himself a birthday party and gets completely wasted while wearing the Iron Man suit, showing off party tricks to random guests. His friend, Colonel James Rhodes, shows up to intervene. Rhodes puts on Stark's Mark II armor, fights Tony, and ultimately delivers the suit to the military.Feeling sorry for himself, Tony sulks while eating donuts inside a giant donut. Nick Fury, director of S.H.I.E.L.D., arrives and asks to talk. He reveals that “Natasha Rushman” is actually undercover agent Natasha Romanoff. She injects Tony with something that will temporarily keep him alive longer. Fury also reveals that Howard Stark was a founding member of S.H.I.E.L.D., whom Fury knew personally.Fury gives Tony some of his father's old materials, including a hidden message embedded in a model of the 1974 Stark Expo. Tony realizes the model contains a diagram for a brand-new element. With J.A.R.V.I.S.'s help, he successfully synthesizes it, curing himself and upgrading his arc reactor.Meanwhile, Vanko refuses to build traditional combat suits for Hammer, instead creating a fleet of armored drones. Hammer, annoyed but desperate, rolls with the idea and plans to debut them at the Stark Expo.Vanko contacts Stark, revealing that he's still alive and promising revenge. With his new element untested in real combat, Tony suits up anyway and prepares for whatever comes next.

This is your tech genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist Tony Stark, and today we've got a special gathering. I'm not alone; I've got the insightful Robert Mota hosting, and joining in on the action are the dynamic duo Frank Rodriguez and Mark Kirkman. We're not just talking Marvel – oh no, we're diving deep into the core of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with our Top 5 MCU movie draft.Get ready for a ride, because we're about to blast off into the cinematic stratosphere. We'll be breaking down our favorite MCU flicks, dissecting the suits, the quips, and those heart-touching moments. It's like a Stark Expo for your ears!
We're almost there...to episode #100. But, first, in #099, we take a discerning look at "Iron Man 2," supposedly the 2nd-worst movie of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But, do we rate it that badly, or do we kind of like it -- or both? - What is the biggest flaw in this movie, stated very early in the review (and again later)? - Which co-host(s) appreciated more scenes of Tony Stark making stuff in his workshop? - Which co-host(s) enjoyed the introduction of Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow in this movie? - Which co-host(s) enjoyed the Monaco race track sequence and the Tony/Rhodey fight scene at the party, and which co-host(s) disliked those scenes. - What are some of the great quotes from the movie? - What is this movie's alternate beginning remembered by one co-host as a deleted scene? - Which co-host questions just how long the Stark Expo is and how Justin Hammer and the military are able to prepare and squeeze in a demonstration, especially if the Expo is only one week long? - And, was it far-fetched that Tony Stark invented a new element? Listen now to find out the answers to these and other industrious questions. Grab your robotic armor, electro-whips, pet bird, drone army, and new element blueprint, as we take our shots at "Iron Man 2." And, skip the strawberries if you're allergic.

Minute Thirty: From Asgard to Midgard This is our last day of individual guests for each day, but it's a great way to finish it off as we have Justin Jaeger from TruStory FM's Trailer Rewind podcast to talk with us about Thor's banishment from Asgard to Midgard. In the thirtieth minute of Kenneth Branagh's 2011 film Thor... The jerk finally realizes he's been a jerk. This is really a big comeuppance for Thor here. Once again, the conversation turns back to Thor's eyebrows. They're really bad here. It was great to be on Jotunheim for a while where his eyebrows actually had more of a semblance of normalcy. There have been quite a range of emotions going across Thor's face in the last few minutes. We love how shocked and vulnerable he suddenly looks here. It's clear he never had any idea there might be consequences for this. And that's after bringing up again that Sif told him this was forbidden. Is it Frigga who had spoiled him too much? We certainly get that sense when reflecting on the coronation scene earlier in the film. Odin has such a great dramatic pause here as he locks down what he wants to do. He's processing a lot in this small moment. And had he already whittled Thor's punishment down to this final banishment? If Thor had shown remorse, would Odin have gone so far? Was he thinking sending Thor from Asgard to Midgard would be good punishment? When Odin references ‘loved ones' that Thor has betrayed, is he meaning just the family? Or all of Asgard? Loki has such a great tennis match moment here as he watches this fight. Is he sad at all that his actions have brought this all down on Thor? Or just shocked that Odin has taken it to this point? Or is he really just biting his lip with glee? We try to figure out the lore and history of Mjølnir. Odin not only takes Mjølnir from Thor but he uses it to strip the armor from Thor's arms. He then uses it to banish Thor, blasting him back into the Bifrost to cast him out. It says a lot that Odin uses Thor's own weapon to cast him out. It's a shame, though, that we don't get more pointed moments later in the franchise that point out the specifics of Thor's armor and rank. But what's interesting is that Odin then whispers what seems to be a spell into Mjølnir – a line of text that had been written on it in the comics – “Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.” So it seems that in the MCU at least, this is the moment when only those who are worthy can wield Mjølnir. This is certainly different from mythology. Is it also a part of fact that Mjølnir, like Gungnir, is made of Uru that allows it to be enchanted thus? There's also that ‘he' in that spell. It just feels dated now. With Taika Waititi behind the upcoming Thor: Love and Thunder, we sort of expect that he's going to find a way to deal with that. Kinda like that moment in Star Trek 6. Does it matter that Odin says ‘hold' versus ‘lift'? It seems a bit like a semantic battle, eh? So Odin banishes Thor from Asgard to Midgard. And it's incredibly dramatic. As far as sending Thor through the Bifrost then Mjølnir through immediately afterward, the scene construction is a bit wonky as we do cross the line, making it appear as if Odin sends the hammer in the complete opposite direction of Thor. Is that just meant to show us that it's not going to land directly on top of Thor? Is it just planetary rotation? To that end, how does he actually operate the Bifrost and Heimdall's Observatory with Gungnir? Is there a mental connection? Again, Loki gives great stone faces through all of this. Thor's trip through the Bifrost looks so much rougher than his earlier journey. Was that because he had Mjølnir? Or more because of his intentionality on that journey as opposed to this one where he's thrown into it? Or is this because Odin operates it with Gungnir, not Heimdall with Hofund? And we're back on Earth. I mean, Midgard. Well, you know what we mean. Thor lands and we have several shorthand shots to put us back into that moment when they drive into the atmospheric disturbance (aka the Bifrost) then crash into Thor. It's the exact same shot that we saw back in minute 3, but here it's clear they haven't manipulated the lighting so we can now actually see they crash into Thor as opposed to some shadowy figure. Meanwhile in the MCU, we learn that Thor's coronation, the attack on Odin's vault, and Thor's journey with his friends to Jotunheim all happened on May 30th. Interestingly, they actually return on the 31st of May so somewhere in there, there may be a time zone they crossed. So Thor lands on Midgard, aka Earth, on May 31st, 2010, the same day that General Ross battles Hulk at Culver University, Tony Stark battles Ivan Vanko, aka Whiplash, at the Stark Expo, and that Agent Phil Coulson stops several robbers from holding up a small gas station in the deserts of New Mexico. From Thor's banishment from Asgrd to Midgard, to Odin's spell on Mjølnir, to Loki's reaction, to the rough trip through the Bifrost, to Thor getting hit by a car, we cover a lot with JJ. Tune in!

Phillip, Eric, and Joe take a trip to the Stark Expo to discuss all the highs and lows of one of the often forgotten movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Iron Man 2 as it nears it's 10-year anniversary. From Mickey Rourke as Ivan Vanko to Don Cheadle as War Machine, we take a look at all the facets of this movie that laid the groundwork for future movies going forward.
In this Episode of the InGoal Radio Podcast presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports , we sit down with three-time Stanley Cup champion Chris Osgood for a lengthy chat that includes insights on everything from scoring a goal, to playing for Scotty Bowman and Kenny Holland, to with Dominik Hasek, fighting Patrick Roy, and why he was the last goalie to wear the helmet and cage combo. You won't believe the answer to that last one, and you won't want to miss his thoughts on being asked by Mike Babcock to hold a clipboard and scout face-offs as the backup late in his career with the Red Wings. Now a Detroit broadcaster and youth coach, it says here Osgood should have been in the Hall of Fame long before now for a career that includes 401 NHL wins, but for now we'll happily settle for this Hall of Fame interview with him. We take a break from the Hockey Shop for the gear segment this week, but not from Cam, who instead grabs Bauer's Spencer Freer to take us behind the scenes from Bauer World at a secret location in Miami, an annual gathering of top retailers that has become known as the Stark Expo of the goalie world.
A brand new season in Disneyland Paris and the arrival of Marvel in force leads us to Marvel Summer of Super Heroes, and both I and Geoff from DLP Town Square were there for the launch weekend. So get comfortable and listen to our full review of the season, with spoilers - you have been warned! We chat Marvel Super Heroes United, Stark Expo presents: Energy for Tomorrow!, Guardians of the Galaxy: Awesome Dance-Off, all the food, characters and those huge Marvel statues! There's also some startling news about Phantom Manor, International Yoga Day, Disney Loves Jazz and more!
It's Friday and that means we're heading to the Stark Expo to trash talk Iron Man 2. Does it hold up or does it have too many problems? Tune in to find out!

The Agents run down where the episode should be placed on their favorite scale for the season as well as question the quality of the season’s acting.

And she brought him a monkey balloon. Does it have an EasterEgg? Really must suck for the Kingpin sitting there, waiting...helpless with Vanessa being treated for. "Yeah, a bunch of one-percenters jerking each other off." That line had to be from Steven S. DeKnight. :D Really conflicted if I should be happy for Kingpin, if Vanessa survives, or not. Matt really should be careful not to beat him up too much, so he can make him the new costume. It would have been more surprising, if Fisk's men would have come after Urich and not Karen Page. Really bad timing from Fisk to call Wesley. Tense scene from him with Karen. Happy to see that Karen could tell the difference if a gun is loaded or not. For a bit I had the theory that Wesley could be the mastermind behind Fisk and tried to turn him on the Path of the Righteous, by getting Vanessa out of the picture. Well, with him dead this is now mute.

Jim Hill and Len Testa explore the complicated history of Disneyland's Tomorrowland, a land that has always struggled to keep pace with the future. They trace its evolution from opening-day exhibits such as Rocket to the Moon, the House of the Future, and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea through the ambitious 1967 redesign, Space Mountain, Star Tours, and Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage. Jim also reveals abandoned plans for a massive Star Tours terminal, Discoveryland-inspired renovations, Atlantis, Treasure Planet, and a possible Iron Man attraction. Recorded live at Disneyland, this episode examines what Tomorrowland was, what it failed to become, and how Disney might reinvent it again. Original Air Date: January 7, 2013Original Title: Disneyland's We'll-Build-It-Tomorrow-Land. Recorded Live at Disneyland (Jan. 2013) HIGHLIGHTS • Why Disneyland's Tomorrowland earned a reputation as the land Disney would finish building tomorrow. • How Tomorrowland nearly failed to open with the rest of Disneyland because Disney lacked sufficient money, attractions, and finished concepts. • The land's original depiction of the distant future of 1986, the year Halley's Comet was expected to return. • How empty Tomorrowland buildings were filled with corporate exhibits such as Crane's Bathroom of Tomorrow. • Why Disney installed a 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea walkthrough beside exhibits promoting futuristic plumbing fixtures. • The landscaping solution that turned ordinary weeds into labeled botanical displays when Disney lacked money for plants. • The unreliable Phantom Boats and the abandoned Florida-style airboat attraction that proved too loud for Disneyland. • Why early Tomorrowland relied heavily on films and walkthroughs that could be produced faster than complex ride systems. • The development of Circarama and Disney's early experiments with panoramic motion-picture presentations. • How Walt repeatedly returned to Tomorrowland with new concepts because he knew the opening-day land had fallen short. • The earliest Space Mountain concepts, including multiple tracks that would have carried ride vehicles outside the show building. • How Disneyland's Rocket to the Moon simulated acceleration with vibrating floors and moving theater seats. • The unusually popular Rocket to the Moon seat that reportedly produced a stronger vibration than the others. • The House of the Future and Disney's realization that walkthrough attractions created capacity and crowd-flow problems. • Why guests waiting outside a walkthrough became frustrated when those inside moved at their own pace. • How General Dynamics helped finance Disneyland's original Submarine Voyage. • Walt Disney's decision to make Tomorrowland feel futuristic by filling it with constant movement. • The kinetic combination of the PeopleMover, Monorail, Submarine Voyage, Autopia, and other transportation systems. • How Adventures Thru Inner Space used scientific subject matter and the Sherman Brothers' “Miracles from Molecules” song. • Why Disneyland brought Carousel of Progress west after its successful run at the 1964 New York World's Fair. • The unsuccessful negotiations that prevented Disney from transferring the complete Ford Magic Skyway attraction to Disneyland. • How the Primeval World dinosaurs became the surviving Disneyland component of Ford's World's Fair attraction. • Walt's final involvement with Tomorrowland's major 1967 transformation shortly before his death. • Why Disneyland received relatively little attention after Walt died while company resources shifted toward Walt Disney World. • The creation of the Main Street Electrical Parade as Disneyland searched for a new nighttime attraction in the early 1970s. • How the first Electrical Parade test reportedly lost battery power before all the floats completed the route. • Why Tomorrowland's 1967 vision of the future began looking dated only a few years after it opened. • The construction of Disneyland's Space Mountain and the decision to place much of the structure below ground. • How Space Mountain gave Tomorrowland a major attraction while reducing the building's visual impact on Disneyland. • Why America Sings was installed in Tomorrowland despite its Bicentennial theme having little connection to the future. • Disney's difficulty developing futuristic attractions while its science-fiction films struggled at the box office. • The proposed Black Hole and TRON attractions that disappeared after their respective films failed to meet expectations. • Ron Miller's early conversations with George Lucas about creating a Star Wars attraction for Disneyland. • George Lucas' childhood visits to Disneyland and his long-standing affection for the park. • The proposed Star Wars roller coaster that would have allowed guests to choose between the Jedi and the dark side. • Mark Eades' discovery of flight-simulator technology and its potential for a Star Wars attraction. • Why Star Tours had to present the action as though guests were looking through the windshield of a moving vehicle. • The design challenge of telling a complete Star Wars adventure without relying on traditional cinematic close-ups. • How Disney raised the roof of the attraction building and used cranes to install the original simulator cabins. • The enormous popularity of Star Tours and the lines that initially stretched through Tomorrowland toward Main Street. • Disney's unrealized plan to close the successful original Star Tours and replace it with a much larger terminal complex. • The proposed T-shaped Star Tours terminal with separate flights to Hoth, Dagobah, and Tatooine. • The airport-style baggage systems, departure concourses, food court, and Audio-Animatronic alien bands planned for the terminal. • How the former Carousel of Progress building would have been demolished to make room for the Star Tours expansion. • Why Star Tours remained too popular for Disney to close it long enough to construct the proposed terminal. • The Discoveryland-inspired Tomorrowland redesign and its combination of bronze, blue, salmon, brown, and mustard colors. • How the ceiling of Tomorrowland Terrace preserved a color test for an unrealized renovation. • Why the visual style later associated with Treasure Planet resembled elements considered for Tomorrowland. • Disneyland's Autopia as a childhood rite of passage that Disney remained reluctant to remove. • The proposed Cars-themed Autopia overlay considered before Disney California Adventure built Cars Land. • How Finding Nemo characters transformed the original Submarine Voyage into a modern franchise attraction. • The specialized glass-infused paint developed to retain brighter colors beneath the submarine lagoon's water. • Disney's proposed Atlantis submarine attraction and its mechanical sea-monster encounters. • The promotional signs Imagineering installed for the Atlantis project before Disneyland management ordered them removed. • How Pixar's acquisition and John Lasseter's involvement helped make Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage possible. • Why the submarine attraction's enormous opening crowds eventually declined among Disneyland's repeat visitors. • Disney's challenge of creating repeatable experiences for a regional audience that visits the park frequently. • The proposed Stark Expo and Iron Man attraction considered for the Innoventions building. • Why Disney needed Robert Downey Jr.'s participation to make a convincing Tony Stark attraction. • How negotiations over Downey's Marvel contract complicated development of the proposed Disneyland experience. • The abandoned PeopleMover track and the continuing debate over what to remove or preserve in Tomorrowland. • Why Space Mountain, Autopia, and Star Tours remained among the land's most secure attractions. • How the 1998 Tomorrowland redesign, Astro Orbitor placement, and entrance rockwork created new crowd-flow problems. • The enduring challenge of building a Tomorrowland that can remain futuristic for more than a few years.
