Norway Pavilion Frozen construction - Frozen Ever After ride

That's the corollary. If it's broken, don't fix it.

I think it's closer to, 'If it's not extraordinarily too expensive to fix', then, go ahead and fix it. How much bang for your buck in return for a Yeti that many people only catch a glimpse of...(even with strobe lights!)

 

[Cesar R M]

Well, this IS Disney we're talking about. Their motto is, "If it's not broken, fix it anyway!"

more like
"if its not broken.. find a way to reduce costs and if its broken, increase the park entrance fees"

The first Cast Members from Norway to work in attractions have arrival date March 16th 2016.
So first a few weeks of training I guess...

Good thing Walt Disney never thought that way, or Disney theme parks wouldn't exist.

Thats exciting! Are the ride and greet supposed to open at the same time?

It would not surprise me if they plan to open both at the same time. The new M&G is far enough along now that I'd say it's possible. The M&G is mostly dried in now as is so they could be already building out the majority of the inside of the building. That said I think we will see the new bathrooms open before anything else as they can pound those out in a week or two once the plumbing and walls are in.

Well that's really exciting since I figured there was no chance of even a soft opening for our April 2-13 trip. Maybe some hope now. That would be great since the whole Soarin closure had me bummed

You will have to Fastpass your bathroom trip!

Well actually they are doubling the size of the bathrooms that currently exist in that location so The women's line should be reduced to a 5 minute wait. =)

More than doubling.

I think you can get a fastpass for the ladies room starting March 23rd!!

Somewhere there is a meme of Ned Stark with a cast member name badge uttering those famous words of the house stark.

 

[bhg469]

Doesn't bother me.

And that's why we can't have actual nice things, but we get really inadequate things, in the wrong place.

 

[Incomudro]

And that's why we can't have actual nice things, but we get really inadequate things, in the wrong place.

Because I didn't find the presence of Donald Duck on the boat ride at the back of the Mexican restaurant to be jarring and out of place in a Disney World park?
I'm sorry, but I try not to overthink things sometimes.
Overthinking and over analyzing what's been put together in and amusement park and whatever reasons are behind these things is not what my park experience is about.

Not you maybe. But Disney used to do it, and that's what used to set them apart from the rest.

Not another screen-based ride!

It's funny that on the scrim they put the same blocked off waterfall look with wood like how it looked without the scrim.

Disney Parks are not amusement parks. They are theme parks. Very different beast all together. Theme parks are all about the immersive theme. We should not confuse the two.
