Episode 14 - Reimagine The Open Land North of EPCOT
Hold onto your hats and glasses folks! Jeff and Mark now move into the great Walt Disney World wilderness.... The actual wilderness! We cross EPCOT Center Drive into the wide open wooded land just north of EPCOT’s parking lot. This vast unused DisneySpace right is the middle of the property and is prime for something big and new.
Mark splits the space in two parts. RunDisney Park and the all new Walt Disney World TransCenter with CenterCore.
Jeff pitches an amazing Experience Park called “Disneylandia 55”, a replica of Disneyland, but as Disneyland would have been experienced in its early days for today’s generation to experience.

Episode 13 - Reimagine Liberty Square
For our 13th show, things at the Magic Kingdom get a little weird. This might be classified as our first “and Spaces Beyond”show.
Our premise assumes that Disney execs make a proclamation that “Americana is out, we don’t want any more viral videos of Hall of Presidents, etc., let’s change Liberty Square into something new”.
But in doing so, we learn about a long-held secret of what the “Magic” Kingdom really is - and the real reason Liberty Square disappears. A familiar caller into AM radio’s late night Art Bell talk show reveals a grand conspiracy, and we get the full tour of this shocking “new land”.
Jeff and Mark start the show with thoughts about EPCOT’s Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind - Wonders of Xandar

Episode 12 - Reimagine Journey into Imagination
For this episode of DisneySpace, Jeff and Mark invite RetroWDW’s and DisTwitter-notable How Bowers along for a visit into EPCOT’s brand new World Celebration (or World Nature?) as we reimagine the Journey into Imagination with Figment pavilion into something new, and something old - made new.
Jeff plays the role of our Master of Ceremonies “Shark Tank” co-host and weighs How’s idea of a completely reimagined space against Mark’s idea of a next-generation Figment and Dreamfinder attraction.
Get ready for a show full of extraordinary surprises and journey with us as we reimagine!

Episode 11 - Reimagine the Backside of Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Jeff and Mark return from a short winter break and reimagine the entire backside of Disney’s Hollywood Studios theme park. The basic ambition is to “round out” the map of the park, allowing visitors to make their ways around the perimeter, much like the lands of Magic Kingdom, connecting Sunset Boulevard with Toy Storyland, experiencing an assortment of attractions, shows, and restaurants along the way.
The episode begins with impressions of the newly opened Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser, just outside of Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. We then discuss the progress of Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT. Next we talk about Disney’s “StoryLiving” real estate ambitions, and Mark recollects Disney’s first dabbles into the real estate business with its early eighties acquisition of Arvida Properties prior to Celebration.
Mark builds out the back of Hollywood Studios with a fully themed land called “Uptown”, home of The Incredibles on the outskirts of Municiberg. This includes several surprises including a nearby DVC resort.
Jeff reveals an exciting adventure called “The Kingsman” pulled from Disney’s recent acquisition of 20th Century Fox , providing a unique edgy experience for guests, allowing them to experience role playing, story building, and stunt experiences all at the same time! Jeff also gives some honorable mentions of alternate ideas of a land for The Simpson and Family Guy - more Fox properties, more experiments of “edginess” as a notion for land design.
