I like it, provided they're rear facing in the back middle. That's the safest place for infants when traveling through time in a Jeep to see dinosaurs during a meteor storm.

I think Dinosaur could use a nice refresh/refurb/what have you, but I still really like it.
Good! Those kids need toughening-up for when Alien Encounter returns!

It freaks some adults out too. My family photos that come out of this are always hilarious

Fair enough.Disdain is too strong of a word. I just don't think it's a good ride. Up and down, up and down, turn one way and another while dino heads show up beside you. It didn't feel like I was on an adventure. The dino at the end is a good jolt, but that's about it for scares. I also think the story is silly.
It's the best part of Dinoland, but I don't think it's worth saving if that section of the park can be improved. And I definitely think that section needs to be improved.
As for Tron, I still lament their glacial construction pace. But hopefully I get to ride it in the not-too-distant future. Also, I think Tron should not have been built at Animal Kingdom so I applaud Disney for not putting it there.
Having taken a three-year-old 40 inch tall child on it last fall, my advice would be raise the height limit. It whipped him around so much. And then it whipped my giant butt into him squishing him firmly between me and my wife. Not a fun ride for him.

When I park hopped to AK to ride Dinosaur the day after Christmas, it was down in the early morning. I stayed nearby and it just reopened, but the app didn’t update yet so it was closed according to MDE. During that time period I was able to ride it 7 times back to back (able to skip the preshow) until a line finally formed.
It was one of my favorite experiences at WDW during my last trip. I just love the intensity and darkness adventure! Left, right, left, right!!!

Considering its been 20 years since the movie was "new", can they at least go back to calling it Countdown to Extinction?

It won't reopen til at least Q2 of 2021 imo; the canopy needs to be assembled and constructed, along with its lighting package. On top of that, the track needs to be placed and the tunnel for the railroad also needs to be constructed. Then it can finally reopen, but there's still so many stages left to the project!
Dinosaur is far more interesting. But since I’m here...What does this have to do with Dinosaur?
It was a Q3 project. If the stand down will affect that remains to be seen.

They'll just project Bob Chapek's face for a few years until he is proud of himself and approves the budget

Was it ever stated that there would actually be show scenes in the tunnel? I don’t recall seeing anything about that, unless I missed something.
It will be just like Shanghai's. Plenty of YouTube vids out there that will show what it will be like.
