Feature Presentation 

In this segment, we take a look at the other Disney parks around the world and see what attractions, if any, we could reasonably port into our park. We discuss impact of theming, park layout and what we'd have to lose in order to make the changes.

Jes has a great idea for a jungle themed Tower of Terror, but would it fit there?

Hury proposes a tear down of this area to make room for the TRON Cycles, heck yeah!!
