I don't know why you think you'll get hate. Disney might get hate but not an individual fan. There are a lot of us that hate, hate and hate some more, the loss of Rivers and TSI, but at the same time hope that since it is a great loss to us we expect that what is going to replace it will be top notch and worth the sacrifice. If it turns out to be a mess and not worthy of it's location, that's when you will really see the hate. It is a big challenge for the Disney planners, lets hope they are up to it this time.
In the meantime it is better to just hope for the best and accept that it is way to late to change the plans. The river is gone and it ain't coming back. No amount of whining will change that, so lets just hope they are up to the challenge.

This is the construction thread. You want the other one.

I don’t think it will be a mess, but I also think it’s going to look pretty much like the concept art. I’m mostly curious about the ride system.
Based on the art…. I think it’s going to be similar to new fantasyland. Lots of rocks with some water features.

As someone who loved the RoA, no hate from me. I enjoyed the RoA while it lasted but now that it’s gone I hope they build the new area as fast as possible.

Yup, and I was answering the post ahead of mine and it relates to construction and the end result of that construction.

I think the destruction, er, I mean, construction is moving right along

Which art? The first blurry art or the 2nd fun map?

Why anyone takes the fun map seriously is beyond me. It’s a cartoon illustration- not concept art.

Many are using it to hope there'll be more water features than the concept art seemed to indicate

The same water is in both pieces of art.

Then you are saying that the fun map is, at least, somewhat the same but presented in a way that is also somewhat clearer. On top of that it's fun. Which is exactly the way we all hope it will be.

I'm still bummed about the river but I'm excited to see they're moving fast, it gives me high hopes for the area too

Exactly. More excitement/hope seemed to come from the "fun map" than the concept art (comparatively speaking imo)Then you are saying that the fun map is, at least, somewhat the same but presented in a way that is also somewhat clearer. On top of that it's fun. Which is exactly the way we all hope it will be.

I’m not against the fun map existing - but it shows less detail and not more.Then you are saying that the fun map is, at least, somewhat the same but presented in a way that is also somewhat clearer. On top of that it's fun. Which is exactly the way we all hope it will be.
My biggest fear is that the fun map was created because there are going to be significant cuts (ala Toy Story land) to what we originally saw. My hope is that the finished project resembles the original concept art cause that’s as good as this project can get.

Many people liked the Fun Map more (whether they realize it or not) because it didn't show any cars, balloon arches, cheap racing signs, and flatscreen TVs. You can look at the Fun Map and if you didn't know anything about the history of the project, you wouldn't know that path was a racetrack and cars were going to be driving through there.
It's giving classic Frontierland vibes, like Nature's Wonderland. Is it a bait and switch or did they make the wise choice to nix all the modern cable-sports racing stuff?
