(1/7) Happy 30th anniversary to the Walt Disney World version of Splash Mountain, possibly the greatest theme park attraction ever built!!!

Coasters like this is one of the things that makes Universal seem lesser than Disney. Totally exposed, outdoor coasters feel more suited for amusement parks than they do for theme parks. Either build it alongside l a structure, like the Matterhorn, or put it indoor, like Space.
The “Celestial Spin” element on the new Stardust Racers roller coaster at Epic Universe looks wild. Imagine this at night? Wow.

Why do people love the idea of replacing classics at a resort that was made with acres of expansion space. We should be pushing Disney to use unbuild land for Tangled, not pushing them to spend millions of $$ to replace a classic and keep capacity the same.
This is probably a cold take at this point but I don’t think this ride is sacred. Basically every other iteration of it around the world is better, and the footprint is so large. Would not mind if they tore it down to build a new section of Fantasyland, or rethemed to Tangled.

Can we quit this trend of suggesting replacing classic attractions at a resort that has tons of expansion space.
This gave me a bad idea. Should they demo the Jungle Cruise and the Swiss Robinson Treehouse? Doing so would allow them to build a 7 acre land

WDW is a resort with practically infinite space. I do not get why people want to destroy classics for new rides when there is ample space to put new rides, which would add capacity to parks that desperately need it.

It sounds like Tom Kenny is getting up there in age. I do not blame him of course, and his voice is not like Marge's where its hard to listen to, but it is getting more noticeable. SpongeBob's voice seems like one that would be hard to replicate, but eventually Kenny will retire.

Opening day specifically. It should be noted that Mario’s opening day was on Wednesday, while FNAF’s was on Friday. Had Mario opened on Friday, it likely would have made more. This is an impressive showing from FNAF, and thanks to its low budget, it should make a good profit.

I should make clear, Epic Universe looks good. The theming of the lands looks quality. What I said about coasters is a single point that I’m not a major fan of, but it does not ruin the park. For what Celestial Park is going for, it may fit better than I think.

The current leadership clearly hates Walt Disney and his legacy. He loved the American frontier, but Bob Iger would rather appeal to the weirdos who choose to find offense in everything they can as opposed to those who actually respect Disney’s legacy. Such a shame.
If you're going to MK soon, it may be your last chance to check out the Fort on Tom Sawyer's, and perhaps Tom Sawyer's in general, allegedly of course.

This looks great, but replacing Dinosaur is not the move. Even if we ignore whether Zootopia belongs in Animal Kingdom, the park could definitely benefit from a capacity increase. Spending millions of dollars just to keep capacity stagnant is a weird choice.

“Tech is super outdated,” you mean like most of the classic rides at the parks? I wonder how the Haunted Mansion fans would feel if they rethemed it to Encanto, and the reason given was “well, the tech was outdated.”
@mirandaiiisms
Dawg it blows my mind that people are defending an attraction where half the shit was broken, tech was super outdated, and besides the racist part Song of the South is just a whack ass gimmick that no one relates except boomers and their super Christian offspring.

No, retheming SM was not necessary just because a select few individuals decided that singing animals were offensive. Nothing about the ride could be deemed offensive, unless of course you are actively trying to find offense in places where there is none.

Usually you can count on Disney films to at least have good music, even if the film itself isn’t the best. Wish failing so hard in that metric may be the most disappointing part of it. Like, I don’t hate these songs, but I expect so much better from Disney.

When it was announced that they’d be gutting Splash Mountain, we had 4 long years of shills mindlessly defending Disney and acting like those against this were racist, even though SM was anything but. Regardless, it really did show them that they cooked do whatever they wanted.
I honestly think the re-theme of Splash Mountain got them comfortable with the idea that they really could do anything they want and get away with it (from a revenue perspective). Not sure how that will pan out over the years, but I think that project opened this door.

As someone who’s not big on dinosaurs, Disney should be doubling down on them. Keep and refurbish Dinosaur, and transform the cheap carnival into something else dinosaur themed. Add IP into the park with Lion King and Jungle Book at other, unbuilt areas of the park.
Rare and Newly Discovered Video gives us the closest look at Dinosaur’s Animatronics EVER!!! The focus is on the Sauropod and the Styracasaurus. Huge thanks to

Splash Mountain, without hesitation. GMR was good and should have stayed, but Splash Mountain was an all time classic that you thought of when you thought of Disney, possibly only behind Pirates and Mansion in that regard.
You can only bring one back to Disney World... is Splash Mountain or The Great Movie Ride?

The fact that the option was either a worse show with forced IP or the show being destroyed really goes to show how far Disney has fallen under Bob Iger. The man clearly has disdain for the company’s past.

It should be noted that this is $142 million that they removed from already announced projects, such as the EPCOT overhaul, and put towards ruining a beloved classic simply to appease those who deliberately chose to find offense in singing animals.
$142 million. It's just an approximation, but this would be almost the same amount of money it costed Disney to build the original ride in Disneyland ($75 million, $162 million with inflation).

Much of what they've shown is good. The issue is that it's not as good as Splash. Had this been its own ride, this would have been a great addition. As it stands, they spend millions of $ to make a replacement for Splash that, while good, is not as good as what came before.

Remember, you’re not allowed to criticize Disney, because replacing the ride that adapts the non-controversial part of a film that itself adapts African American folklore with a ride based off a movie with a white story that uses black characters means Disney is anti-racist.

Even though Walt Disney had passed away before the creation of Splash Mountain, it was clear that he loved the stories of Brer Rabbit. The Walt Disney Company wanting to now completely forget those stories is an awful move on their part.

Yep. At the end of the first film, they go back through the portal back to the UK, which turns them back into kids, as it brought them back to exactly the last time they went through it. Worst of all, the portal won’t open to get back to Narnia if they’re looking for it.

Some are disappointed, but so long as it’s based on the 1994 classic, this is better than a smaller GE clone. The Lion King is one of the best films to come out of Disney, including the acquisitions. To give Paris the honor of having the first ride based on it is very cool.

In the past 5 years, Dreamworks has had 7 sequels against 4 originals from their main studio. In the same time period. Disney and Pixar have had 3 sequels, and that’s if we even count Lightyear as a sequel, against 7 originals from their main studios.

The Princess and the Frog underperformed so hard that it made Disney quit releasing theatrical hand-drawn animated films. As someone who enjoys The Princess and the Frog as a film, people really need to quit spreading the rumor that it’s popular, because it’s not.

The Walt Disney Company, which has traditional American values in its DNA thanks to Walt Disney’s love of America, should not be run by people who clearly hate America. Removing Liberty Square would be another example of Iger demonstrating how much he loathes the values of Walt.
My understanding is that, in addition to Frontierland and Tom Sawyer Island, Disney recently documented Liberty Square, as well.
Liberty Square was not included in the announcement of the removal of Tom Sawyer Island and the Rivers of America, yet it could be a part of the

Bob Iger is the worst CEO Disney has ever had. He continues to prove that he hates the Disney brand and only wants to push his own IP. Getting rid of Splash is proof of the former, and forcing a Marvel attraction at TDL, where Marvel isn’t that popular, is proof of the latter.

Ratatouille is an example of good IP use imo. The film itself is a celebration of French cuisine, with it very obviously taking place in Paris. They also did not replace anything to put it there. Frozen in Norway is a much better example of forcing IP where it doesn't fit.
