    I don’t know Why Universal Hollywood doesn’t do that. Sure they are a landlocked park but what’s keeping them from buying some property somewhat nearby and creating a West Coast Epic Universe?

    According to this guy, I don’t think the Star Tours side has it anymore:

    I’m sure the Mary Blair Ceramic Murals are under the Lightyear spaceships mural.

    Look at all these shows back in 1994, oh how times have changed……

    Frankly I agree with a 3rd park being a bad idea for the resort as a whole. The resort will suffer as a whole and Disneyland and DCA will be deprived of updates and new attractions. Whether you love DCA or you hate it, it still needs alot of work. DCA has never lived up to Disneyland and still...

    Was Country Bear Jamboree brought to Disneyland due to its popularity in Florida and built in record time?

    I have a question for all of you CBJ lovers out there who grew up with the attraction: If the only way you could get back Country Bear Jamboree at Disneyland was to have an exact copy of the current Disney Musical Jamboree in MK, would you take that offer?

    Was Country Bear Jamboree brought to Disneyland due to its popularity in Florida and built in record time?

    It wasn’t Marc Davis who designed the crane, it was Randy Cartwright. Marc Davis retired in 1978, the decision was his own but I’m sure he felt ousted by the company. Probably because his Western River Expedition idea never took off as well as his redesign of Mine Train thru Nature’s Wonderland...

    Was Country Bear Jamboree brought to Disneyland due to its popularity in Florida and built in record time?

    I can’t speak for the popularity of either the vacation or Christmas versions or CBJ being so popular which is why the new shows happened but from 1981-83, there was a lot of animatronic shows being created. Kitchen Kabaret, Meet the World, The American Adventure, Tiki Room TDL and CBJ TDL. Some...

    Was Country Bear Jamboree brought to Disneyland due to its popularity in Florida and built in record time?

    But why create the same problem again? I think CBJ did so well in WDW is because Country music is more prevalent in that part of the country and the surrounding states who come and visit. This has never been the case in California which is a locals park and country music is secondary here...

    Was Country Bear Jamboree brought to Disneyland due to its popularity in Florida and built in record time?

    For all the wrongs that Disney unleashed on Disneyland from 1992-2001, they never really made up for them. Mission to Mars, Motor Boat Cruise, Skyway all closed with no replacements. PeopleMover, Rocket Jets and he Country Bears Jamboree all closed and were replaced with inferior replacements...

    If it were to ever come back, it would most definitely be the same version that WDW has now

    Was Country Bear Jamboree brought to Disneyland due to its popularity in Florida and built in record time?

    These ride layouts are from Parklore.com: Disneyland: Magic Kingdom: You can see how much more space the WDW version has compared to DL’s. It was literally shoehorned into CBJ which is why scenes are all over the place with no particular order because there was no master plan and more of a...

    Was Country Bear Jamboree brought to Disneyland due to its popularity in Florida and built in record time?

    One thing I’ll never understand is why Disney execs decided to just take out Country Bear Jamboree all together. You knew the attendance numbers were down and that it was a tough location to have them in. Why didn’t they replace it with Pooh a year and a half prior and use one of the two...
