News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

[Notes from Neverland]

Here's more photos of the characters water-skiing

This is the type of stuff that used to make Walt Disney World extra special and unique.

Imagine they rolled that out today for the first time and people would complain about the use of IP.

I believe they discontinued the characters water-skiing sometime in the late 1990s.

It did...30 years ago. In 2019, it would look rather hokey. Walt Disney World was a luxury resort in the ‘80s and should be now, but what is luxurious by today’s standards is quite different.

Let’s start with WiFi that always works. High quality toiletries. Bring back warm hand towels in resort restrooms. Free soda in the parks with the mugs that should be included in a resort stay. Free pair of those glowing mouse ears for everyone. A busing system that works on a time table so guests can actually plan on when to arrive at the bus stop. Reservations at resort TSRs reserved for guests of that resort (feel free to release them to everyone else 24-hours out), but imagine checking in to, “Aloha, would you like to dine at ‘Ohana at some point during your 7-night stay? We can set that up for you now. Your Genie suggests you’re free Thursday night. How’s 6 pm?”

Don't forget that the Monorail route, the Contemporary Hotel, and TTC used to have toparies.

Here's a web page about it.

And don't forget that the monorail track wasn't always black with dirt, mold, and slime.

Is six flags gonna run the ride?

It’s not that intense

The one in Shanghai has a large locker bay outside where you have to store things.

 

[JEANYLASER]

The official name of the ride is Tron Lightcycle Run not Tron Lightcycle power run?

That is correct.

Trainplane3 thanks for the official name of Tron lightcycle run and I wish to see the Clothes and the new concept art and the Tron Lightcycle run bike.
