Luca for Italy, Big Hero 6 for Japan because American pavilion is right next to it. Aladdin for Morocco obviously, Canada only see Brother Bear. Tangled for Germany better than Snow White, the meet and greet for Snow White is fitting there though! France was and is still Aurora and Belle even with Remy perfectly in!
Aladdin was either set in “Arabia” (from the original story) or India (from the architecture of the movie).
They originally had plans for every Pavilion to have attractions. Germany was to have a boat ride, and Japan a dark ride.
Just like someone pointed out for Tropical America's that UP would fit better than Encanto and Encanto should be in Epcot. Perhaps former Disney would of done that.Aladdin was either set in “Arabia” (from the original story) or India (from the architecture of the movie).
Neither of which are in Africa. But hey, this is Disney. Who cares about stuff like that? Cultural appropriation? Have at it.
I do believe Luca has a much larger fan base than people realize. Unfortunately without its theatrical release, due to covid, and Disney releasing such little viewership data it’s hard to judge. But with the little bit of viewership data we do know it was the number one streamed movie on Disney+ in 2021 and stayed in the top 10 in 2022.
Kinda makes me wonder, if those attractions had been built, would Iger have given them IP overlays too?
I would think yes...they would have had some overlays to add IP...In the case of the London Boat ride, adding Mary Poppins would have probably worked fine...

Facts about Arabs and the Arab World - ADC
Who is an Arab? "Arab" is a cultural and linguistic term. It refers to those who speak Arabic as their first language. Arabs are united by culture and by history. Arabs are not a race. Some have blue eyes and red hair; others are dark skinned; many are somewhere in between. Most Arabs are Muslims
Morocco is part of the Arab world.
Let's not give them any ideas!
Just think of the hoopla surrounding the announcement.
It would have to replace the maze &/or bandstand though, which would be a shame. If they can fit it in without losing the charm of the garden then fine.
