News Announced: Mary Poppins Attraction in UK Pavilion

[SteamboatJoe]

On a similar issue, my Apple devices during an update a few years ago wiped all the music I had manually uploaded from from CDs over the years and just left me with the stuff I had bought through Apple Music. The most annoying part is that I had moved across the world to the Netherlands from Australia, leaving all my CDs sitting quietly in storage on the other side of the planet. There is stuff such as the lovely Musical History of Disneyland box-set that I couldn't buy once again from Apple even if I wanted to.

So, yes, I also don't trust any of these providers to keep anything we have stored digitally available and do still buy blu-rays.

This is my nightmare. I back up all my music onto an external HD for this exact reason. I've thought about also backing them up on DVDs.

I do. Like some have already said, they're nice to have when the internet is down and there are plenty of times when I want to watch something that's not on Netflix, Hulu, or Prime. Some people also like to collect them. For example, I have 3 copies of Dead Man's Chest and 2 copies of At World's End, but they're all different editions/releases. All in all, I have roughly 150 or so dvds & blue rays combined. (mostly Disney) I also have about 100 vhs tapes. (remember those? also mostly Disney)

or for when the apocalypse happens and there is no internet... I can still watch Disney movies using a generator.. hopefully the emp doesn't kill my blu ray and tv ….. maybe I need a faraday cage to put around them

survival <disney

That looks like much smaller footprint than I was hoping.

A spinner with radius 60 ft can fit in there. Prince Charming's Carousel has a radius of 45 ft.

That’s what I’m afraid of. Call me crazy, but I was still holding out hope that they’d come to their senses and give us an epic MP dark ride. Hopefully the intel about the building footprint is wrong.

It could always be a smaller Fantasyland style ride. Those don’t take up a ton of space.

It would be nice to see a MP dark ride that reused some of the stuff from the GMR scene. Hey I can dream can’t I?

Watched MPR last night.. eh. I guess it was fine.

Latest Jim and @lentesta show stated that this attraction is very fluid and could range from an elaborate Meet and Greet (they cited Royal Somerhus) to a modest dark ride.

This is no longer fluid. Unless plans change post approval, it should be a flat/ round inside ride.

I guess they’ll confirm this in a blog post so their precious D23 announcement wouldn’t have been drowned out by boos from the audience.

Very sneaky.

. Is it because they don’t want to spend the money? Or because they couldn’t make a better deal with the Travers people? Or some other reason that you know of that you can share? They know how disappointed everyone will be if it’s just a spinner right?

I guess that I'm bright-siding that at least it's a ride and not Enchanted Tales with Mary Poppins. That would really tick me off.

seeing the aerial photos of the area, i think the spinner is best case and i think they will do a good job. Lots that can really make this cool. Plus its one more attraction. We didnt loose one to get it, so that there is a plus.

Glass Half-full people makes me sick!
...just like spinner rides.

Poppins deserves better.

I'm okay with a flat ride - though putting it indoors negates one of the main value of such rides in the kinetics, though conversely does make it weather proof - especially with Rat being built next door. But there still needs to be more proper attractions in World Showcase so it can be a compliment as opposed to a "draw". I'm looking at you Germany, Italy, Japan, Morocco, etc....

 

[Surferboy567]

If it’s a spinner fine...but PLEASE let us have a jolly holiday or royal dalton part of the queue or ride. I really want them to pull off the illusion. She deserves so much better.

What’s the timeline for this whole area?

Would love It’s A Small World in WS.

I’ve got no specifics beyond what Disney themselves have said that everything they talked about will be ready by the 50th.
