Hey there. Unfortunately I was hired to escort you out of these forums... if you could just come with me real quick I have some really cool papers to sign and then you can be on your way

I haven’t seen too much of a drastic difference. The old show would have people clapping along as well.

Since I BEARly remember Vacation Hoedown and the Christmas show - it doesn’t seem odd to me for the bears to sing other songs. The bears never = the classic show until Disney got lazy and stopped rotating the shows.

No singing though, and I only noticed clapping at very specific parts during the OG show (like the beginning song)

“Why for over 50 years, Walt has protected the rivers of America from recessions, budget cuts, and pandemics. But he cannot protect them from fools!”

My guess is because in Today’s Disney, LL money is more I important than theme, atmosphere, immersion.

I made the same joke a year ago, but it bears repeating!

Super sad but historic photos. The MK will never be the same again. Ironically, there are folks from within TWDC cheering this.

I was a child in the 70s when TSI first opened...I spent many hours over there exploring over the years... It was absolutely magical... Less so on my last visit thenre in June to say goodbye... But is was always an amazing place... Now thewre is nothing to "discover" and if there is you will need to pre-plan your lightning lane fast pass to "discover" it with ten thousand other people...

Disney does not care about nostaliga, memories and discovery any more. Their new slogan should be "Out with the non-profit generating thematic areas, in with the IP-fest LL ca$$$$$$$h!"

Piston Peak tie-ins?

Piston Peak tie-ins?

They might as well, there is no turning back now.....

But I was told the cars franchise was dead and not selling merchandise anymore /s

 

[TheMaxRebo]

Piston Peak tie-ins?

Was my first thought - especially as is a series they could have one episode where they visit it and the characters there, etc

Nah… I don’t think anyone has said that. It’s pretty well established that it’s the merchandise selling that makes this project make sense.

By box office numbers and viewer ratings - it’s one of the poorest performing Pixar franchises.

But the consumer products changes all of that.

Piston Peak tie-ins?

Here's what else is known about the show so far:

Building on Disney and Pixar’s beloved Cars franchise, Cars: Lightning Racers follows Lightning McQueen as he gears up for all-new adventures in Radiator Springs alongside his hilarious best friend Mater and new friends thrill-seeking drag car Pipes and mud-loving monster truck Miles. The all-star cast returning to their original roles includes Owen Wilson as Lightning McQueen, Larry the Cable Guy as Mater, Tony Shalhoub as Luigi, Cheech Marin as Ramone, Bob Peterson as Chick Hicks and John Ratzenberger as Mack. Leah Lewis (Elemental) and Yuri Lowenthal (Marvel Rivals video game) join the cast as Pipes and Miles, respectively. Sheryl Lee Ralph (Abbott Elementary) will also voice a new character, Ms. Blinker.

So, there are two bridges by Splash/Tiana. One closest to the drop and one further out where your boat has just completed the splash down and is going around the bend (pictured here). It sort of connects to the other walkways over the water. Can we assume this bridge is safe, and therefore the new water will come up to this point? Like many, I am most concerned with the preservation of water in this new attraction.

Disney thinks the cars franchise is super successful and that's all that matters...
