MK Big Thunder Mountain to receive full retrack

I thought we had deduced Pirates follows Thunder.

Does Pirates need a huge refurb ?

It’s another attraction that gets minor refreshes pretty consistently.

It’s another attraction that WDW likes to give minor refreshes to periodically.

The building could certainly use some work. And, I’d imagine some visual updates to coincide with Pirates 6.

What about its IASW or Peter Pan ?

Shouldn’t those go first as I’m sure they need more attention versus Pirates.

As far as they’re concerned, they just did Pan.

Unaware of major needs at IASW.

I’m not sure you saw my post in the Beak and Barrel thread but Pirates is looking amazing so technically it’s been getting lots of love lately.

I just feel there are other attractions that can use some refreshing.

Maybe they can bring back the fog in the battle scene.

Why on earth Disney can’t figure out how to consistently have fog, cryo, and haze working in attractions is beyond me.

It works...sometimes.

I think all the classic Fantasyland rides could use a refresh like Disneyland has done with theirs... Lose the TOurnament Tent facades and make Fantasyland look more like the Fairytale Village they created for Disneyland.

It works most of the time.

Been saying this for years. Why they didn't update that part of the land when they put in new fantasyland is beyond me. It looks and feels tacky and cheap.

Maybe they can work on that after Cars and Villains opens.

They're still serviceable even if not the best. Tomorrowland, however ...

 

[Bocabear]

Tomorrowland is the saddest story right now....

Soon…

 

[unclejeff]

weren't there rumors that Space Mtn is next after BTM is back online?

There's been Space Mt rumors for decades.

Nobody will ever be able to convince me that plans are not in place to demolish Space or gut it and use it for something completely different.

You don’t build Tron next door and then don’t have those plans in blue sky / concept / feasibility plans.

Now they may choose another plan…. But that plan has to exist as an option.

I don't foresee Space Mountain getting gutted and replaced by something new entirely. Whatever one day happens there will still be Space Mountain. There's too much history and popularity around it, with no hint of controversy. Tokyo doesn't have the history tied to their parks and rides like DW and DL do, which is why it makes more sense for them to build a 'next-gen' Space Mountain and gut Adventureland for something entirely different.

You do when you’re in a panic about capacity, need something relatively quick and don’t plan nearly as far out as your fans believe.
