• Hyperion theater & the surrounding areas & facades finally get their re-themes to go along with the Marvel urban NYC of comic book lore
• While WDW gets the Tron coaster, DCA will utilize the same tech but will theme it to the Avengers for Marvel Land
• With SWL comes the closure of Launch Bay & the Innoventions building, the Jedi Training Academy, Hyperspace Mountain,& Star Tours eventually
• W/ Marvel at DCA & Star Tours becoming redundant after SWL, the ride will be taken offline & the sims moved to DCA for Iron Man ride from HK
• With so many attractions offline at Tomorrowland, WDI is stressing about the fact that the it will be a dead-zone for so long until a redo,2024 at best
• Fantasyland is first after SWL w/ plans for the FL theater being replaced by Arendelle,& B&tB replacing motor boat cruise, both Tokyo projects
• Arendelle will have a Frozen ride while the B&tB section will contain the Be Our Guest restaurant from WDW along with Belle's cottage
