I really hope this isn’t a sign of Moana’s Tiki Room or some nonsense. Leave some classic things alone. Sheesh.

Someone will probably pipe in to tell us it's a pipe fix or something, but if not and it's a real change, the backlash will be more entertaining than whatever they do to it.

Bringing back the Magic Fountain would be nice

DL had their Enchanted Tiki Room under refurbishment for several months. It was closed when I was there in May. Not sure what they did.

I haven't heard anything.. which is odd...

fire prevention?

Probably an unpopular opinion but while I appreciate its significance in theme park history, I'd be open to an update that preserved the animatronics and theme but added something new. I didn't hate Under New Management, so maybe I'm just weird like that. I just find the original show to be too long and boring. I enjoy the A/C though!

It was actually shortened from the original show. The original Country Bears was shortened too. Disney wanted a quicker throughput. If you shortened it any more, you wouldn't have a show.

Ha, very true. I guess it just drags for me, probably because UNM was my core memory of this attraction. I'm always waiting for Iago to disrupt the song and it doesn't happen!

Totally agree. My partner suggested that the Tiki Room be moved to the Polynesian to be preserved for it's significance, freeing up some room for an Adventureland refresh.

to be fair it's also because attention spans are smaller than ever

Don't give Disney that much credit. They're not thinking about us, they're thinking about all the money we're not spending while sitting in their non-LL attractions.

There's not a lot of room to work with, same reason why it was hard to replace Country Bears with something else

In fairness, the fiddle scene was cut for the shortened version. It was brought back as a new scene for playing Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.

Ernest still had a song in the shortened version. It was just shortened.

Not to raise too many eyebrows, but I'd replace everything east of Caribbean Plaza in Adventureland.

Well that's certainly one of the opinions of all time, and with how Disney's going these days, they just might do that!
