The 1990s Phylicia Rashad is still in DINOSAUR but apparently for not much longer. Gary Sinise (Forest Gump) was the narrator for Mission:Space then replaced by Gina Tores (911). Let's not forget Walker Kronkite, Jeremy Irons, and Dame Judi Dench for Spaceship Earth. (I know Lawrence Dobkin was the first. Don't know much about him.)
Yes, that's what my kids said (10 and 13 years old). They have spent a lot of time in California bc we have family there, so they were excited to see it for that reason but other than that they said they were basically the same. They just liked the transitions better in SATW which is why they prefer that one.
While they’re in the minority among fan communities like ours, we don’t actually have any data on what the majority of guests think.
Temporary changes and overlays are always crowd-pleasers. That Disneyland transforms its Haunted Mansion every year for Halloween and Christmas doesn’t mean people dislike the regular version.
Sure sometimes things just get tired... and need to go. But if the film wasn't liked, it wouldn't be worth bringing back. People aren't going out of curiosity. And Disney has done it multiple times at DCA. It's not about saying the new version is 'disliked' it's saying the old version is liked enough to be excited to see it INSTEAD of the new.
I didn’t say anything to the contrary. Of course the old film is liked. I’m not sure why you think I believe otherwise.
You talk in circles when people address the statements YOU MADE. (about a film being disliked or not).
I meant we don’t have any data as to which film most guests prefer. That should have been clear from the post I was responding to. I have never implied, much less said, that the old film is disliked.You talk in circles when people address the statements YOU MADE. (about a film being disliked or not).
I'll go back to the start... You said "we don’t actually have any data on what the majority of guests think" -- To which I say We do.. we have Disney's actions to bring it back.. REPEATEDLY.. and not as some seasonal tradition.. and have EXPANDED where they are doing it. Disney has data on what guests think
Hopefully "Over CA" will revert to the default and "The World" will be the special show once in a while, maybe for the holidays!
Yep! I shared his post earlier in this thread, but here it is again:
And we have been waiting since 2003 last Holiday Hoedown for at least a new Country Bear Jamboree. I wouldn't have mind seeing Vacation Hoedown again..And that had no offensive songs at all..
That may be how people answered in a survey but the reaction that I have witnessed to both CA and The World would argue otherwise. Until the very end of the run, a significant number of people in the theater would give an ovation to CA and I'd hear comments all the time about how great it was. On my rides of The World, there was, at most, a handful of people who gave a golf clap.
