What I am most excited for with PZ2

A new soundtrack album. The first is on regular rotation for me.

Series of Easter Eggs that I don't see to many people discuss.

Someone on the For All Mankind's early seasons staff is a massive Disney Parks fan, specifically Classic Disney. The show's first three seasons are just littered with really deep cut Disney Parks references.

  • Gordo brings his kids an Orange Bird plush after visiting Cape Canaveral
  • Werner Von Braun talks about Disney World and how he is sad Walt never got to see it (Walt Disney and Werner Von Braun were associates and Disney produced and aired his Man in Space program on the Disneyland TV show)
  • Molly refers to Pathfinder as the "E-Ticket ride of the decade", a reference to Disney's A-E ticket books system, which E-Ticket was the best, most popular, most exciting rides.
  • Karen makes two separate references to Ed dreaming of a "Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow", which is the song that plays on the Carousel of Progress
  • When Sojourner 1 deploys its solar sails, we get the full audio loop from Pirates of the Caribbean. Not just Yo Ho! a Pirates Life for Me, the whole audio loop with the 2+ minutes of leading instrumentals.

I don't recall any from seasons later than 3, but someone add them in the comments if I am forgetting

Its all just subtle enough to not be over the top. Its not like they are name dropping attractions, but they are peppering the show with really directed deep cut theme park references which I have always found so fun.

[Arie Force One] Confirmed to be renamed [William T. Sherman's Wild Ride] Coming to [Five Flags over Cincinnati]

Taking a coaster from Atlanta and moving it to Ohio felt in his nature. Also, they dropped the sixth flag, don't ask about it.....

Ok, this is a weird one. In 2025 I attended "A Night with Francis Ford Coppola and Megalopolis" in Chicago. They screened the film, and then Coppola "lead a discussion about the future". It was a strange evening.

During this discussion, Coppola mentioned a book that he had read in which the core argument was that through out early human history, several major inventions originated from children's play. The two examples Coppola listed from the book were the wheel first being used by children to play games, rather than adults to transport things, and Art in the form of Cave Hands, which children size hands appear along side adult sized hands.

Does this ring any bells for anyone. The book sounds interesting, and I have been meaning to locate it, but I do not believe he ever actually gave a title (his discussion was quite ramble-y).
