Sorry, but a boat ride just makes no sense whatsoever. Course a boat ride does not make sense for Frozen either and they make that work. I just wish they would use a ride vehicle and set up that makes sense and does not seem counter to the IP they are using.
I hope some meet and greets would come along with Lion King and Encanto. That would continue to add offerings if you can meet Rafiki, Timon and Pumba, Bruno, and maybe Mirabel. One can hope…
I honestly can’t with some people. This is cute. Adds some charm and something more to do in this area. These are the small experiences we should be celebrating.
Thanks for making this a separate discussion! This is really exciting if it comes to fruition.

Very hopeful it happens. Lion King long deserves a ride. The animated and (pointless) live action both did north of a billion.
I think the problem is they build them in isolation (Moana) so people expect them to be huge e-ticket experiences. Open one in addition to Rise and MF for example and people would be happy.
Yes they did that with TSL but the alien ride is poorly done. Who thought a stationary crane was the way...
So the critter co-op sells all the animal plushies and her general store will sell all the Tiana Foods branded kitchenware? Smart move. I think the critter co-op will make a ton of money. Love that they are giving names and characters to the critters and really leaning into that. It was...
Sorry if someone else already posted this, but I read online that Stitch won’t get redone because it is filled with asbestos and if they redo it they would need to redo Cosmic Rays too to clear it and with the money it brings in they dont want to have to close it. Any truth to that rumor?
