🪞 Villains Land at Magic Kingdom will feature “conjured architecture” inspired by art nouveau architecture found in Europe. Imagineers conducted research trips to Paris and Barcelona to study this architecture. Do you spot any clues or have any predictions about what we’ll find at the land?

🐭 D23 picked the perfect Disney “Fan-bassador”. Jodi Benson represents the best of Disney fandom and is genuinely one of the kindest human beings on the planet. It was an honor to meet her in person and I can’t wait to see how she leads Disney fans to D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, being held next year in Anaheim, CA on August 14, 15, and 16.

🍽️ What I ate and drank on the first day of the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival 2025.

🇧🇪 Belgium (between France & Morocco): Belgian waffle with berry compote & whipped cream. Sweet and popping with berry flavor. Chilled coffee on the side had a similar flavor to coffee ice cream (sweet and creamy).

🇬🇷 Greece (between Japan and Morocco): spanakopita. Flaky crust with a creamy cheese center. The perfect blend of cheese, spinach, and pastry crust.

🇯🇵 Japan: teriyaki chicken bun: a personal favorite of mine every festival bursting the perfect blend of sweet, salt and umami. The teriyaki sauce is perfect.

🌐 Brew-Wing Lab at the Odyssey (behind Test Track): frozen pomegranate & raspberry tea with orange ice cream molecules: like a fruity sorbet smoothie. Refreshing on a hot day but also very sugary.

🥬 Bramblewood Bites (behind the Imagination pavilion): cast-iron roasted Brussels sprouts and root vegetables with dried cranberries, spiced pumpkin seeds and pumpkin seed vinaigrette. A veggie medley flavor with a slight kick of spice. Not as good as the honey-roasted cauliflower served at Honey Bee-Stro (Flower & Garden festival) but still tasty.

🥕 Milled & Mulled (also behind the Imagination pavilion): freshly baked carrot cake with walnuts and cream cheese icing. The perfect carrot cake flavor, served warm. I could’ve eaten 10 of these. A definite item to try if you love carrot cake!

💰 Total cost: $38.70

What are your must-have items at this year’s festival?

👕 My wife gave me my first RSVLTs shirt as an early birthday present and I felt the best way to celebrate would be to grab some photos in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. This may be my first of many RSVLTs (especially their Star Wars collection). Thank you, my love!

🌵 New concept art for the new Cars themed section coming to Magic Kingdom! Disney confirmed this morning, as shown in this concept art, that the new Frontierland reimagining at Magic Kingdom will involve replacing at least part of Tom Sawyer Island and the Rivers of America to make way for the 2 new attractions announced at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event—“a thrilling off-road rally race and a family friendly attraction even the youngest racers will love.”

Take a close look at the far edges and you’ll see Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at the top right and left. Then at the left-hand side is Country Bear Musical Jamboree. Following the map, this puts the majority of the attraction space for Cars where Rivers of America and Tom Sawyer Island now stand.

This is all part of the largest Magic Kingdom expansion ever, which includes a new Disney Villains themed land, which a Disney Parks Blog article this morning confirmed is going to be the “beyond Big Thunder” section discussed over the last two years.

🐭 Ahead of D23 The Ultimate Disney Fan Event this weekend, I wanted to share 7 concepts I’d love to see for Walt Disney World and Disneyland. I’ve shared many of these ideas on the podcast in the last 2 years, but I’m compiling them all here:

🇲🇽 Santa Cecilia beyond Big Thunder with a Coco flying theater attraction taking you into the land of the dead on Dia de Los Mu***os. This would be seamless to blend with Frontierland and would be the first flying theater attraction at Magic Kingdom.

🦖 More details about Indiana Jones Adventure with a unique storyline created for Disney’s Animal Kingdom in a way that ties it to Tropical Americas and the greater park mythology (nature has intrinsic value). Some Dinosaur tributes would also be welcome!

🇩🇪 This one is unique, but there’s land behind the Germany and Italy pavilions at EPCOT for a major attraction. Perhaps a Tangled water ride could fit well here. After all, the film was inspired by a German Grimms’ fairy tale. World Showcase could benefit from another E-ticket!

💦 More details about Avatar coming to Disneyland. The concept art seems to show a water attraction based on Avatar 2, and I’d love to see some technology from Pirates of the Caribbean at Shanghai.

🌐 Spaceship Earth has earned its next (fifth) installment and could use a major update. While I’d hate to live without the attraction for 2-3 years, I’d welcome its next iteration.

🧠 I shared this idea in a previous Reel, but incorporating Inside Out into the Imagination Pavilion (keeping Figment and perhaps bringing back a tribute to Dreamfinder) could breathe new life into this classic pavilion.

🦸 A broader, less concrete, and more complicated idea, I’d love to see more Marvel at Walt Disney World. I know the famous contract stipulations with Universal make this tough, but I know Disney can find a way.

This of course comes in addition to wanting updates from other blue sky ideas announced previously, including Test Track 3.0. What’s the biggest item on your wish list for the Disney Experiences Showcase?

💕 Welcome to the world, Emily Anna Krul, born July 30. As a Dad with two daughters (like Walt), I am feeling truly blessed and am looking forward to our Disney trips as a family of four (we have Emily’s first Disney trip booked for early 2025). Maggie has told us she’s excited to hold her baby sister’s hand wherever we go together, and like Elsa and Bluey, she is looking forward to being a big sister. Joanna and I are feeling truly blessed and our hearts are filled with joy this week. Emily, Mommy and Daddy love you so much and devote ourselves to being everything you and Maggie need us to be!
