MK Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

[Disgruntled Walt]

I'm sure Disney is aware of all the ways they could be doing this differently to 'save' part of the river or a boat.

They're choosing not to do so.

And they're making the wrong choice.

Coming soon - From the creative genius CEO, Bob Iger, a newly re-imagined Carsland! Featuring:

Mater's Thunder Mountain!
McQueen's Bayou Adventure!
Flo's Route 66 Cafe!
Country Cars Jamboree!
Cars Off-Road Adventure!

Fun for the whole family!

 

[Disgruntled Walt]

McQueen's Bayou Adventure!

That actually sounds like it would be kinda cool, and it's a bit ironic, considering I think the current ride is stuck in the mud.

 

[FigmentJedi]

Of course this option would require them to completely redo the facades along the water front and turn Tall Tale Cafe officially into Tiana's Palace, and I just don't think they're willing to drop the cash on that even if it solves that entire area's thematic clashing.

I still think Diamond Horseshoe's interior would lend itself better to be converted into a more screen accurate Tiana's Palace given it has the balconies and stage for jazz performances. Yeah, you could build some of that stuff into the huge space that is Tall Tale, but I'm skeptical of them putting in that sort of effort.

I feel like we ran through denial and anger in about two weeks and have been firmly in the "bargaining" stage (Pitching 18 different ways portions of the RoA can stay) since last year. I check on this thread maybe once a month and I always see the exact same posts with new doodles about how some area can be salvaged (it won't be)

I really don’t care what they do with the River, I’m just in for the fun what ifing. It’s better than the fighting that populated the first half of the thread.

Long time coming! I was expecting it to be out sooner.

Land clearing for the laydown yards has begun - photos from today:










Here's a brief video look at the area:

They’re cutting it close but I’m still feeling pretty sure the river will be closed before MNSS begins

McQueen's Bayou Adventure!

Couldn't be any worse than Tiana's.

that was posted almost a year ago, and since then we have learned that the Cars area will not be behind Big Thunder but to the side of it wiping out the waterfront of Frontierland/ Liberty Square... If only they were going to actually build it where shown in this old post leaving the ROA intact.....

 

[truecoat]

I think it's already happen though. The diminished Old West themes, Tiana, Cars is just another nail in Fronterland's coffin. Jokes aside, googly eyes isn't going to fix that.

Would this be like pouring salt in a wound?

Nicely done.
There is nothing left to do when Disney makes these terrible, awful decisions but to joke about them.

Who knows, maybe it won’t be awful.

Frankly, all my faith, hope and trust is gone after I saw what they did in EPCOT.

Rivers of America and the steamboat sure looked nice today.
I was admiring the views.

Still can’t believe this is being destroyed….for freakin’ Pixar vehicles.

Anyone think it's possible Grizzly Peak gets deconstructed and repurposed to build Cars Land MK?

That is very true...but they moved the timeline on the Tiana story...she no longer cares about having a restaurant...She leased it out to The Diamond Horseshoe....Now it is about a foods factory in a dirt pile that interests her .... and getting those crates of stale beignets down river...and finding insects and frogs to play music or something like that.... Oh and she no longer looks like the person in the film... um, yeah...

Our favorite spot to watch fireworks was in Frontier land on the edge of the river.

No crowds, more quiet, and the reflection of the fireworks off the river was beautiful.

Another necessary downgrade like Splash?

And this time its not for social justice. Its for MONEY.

That would be a hard no.
