So, Princess and the Frog looks good now, aye?

You should have to do the “Wakanda Forever” pose crossing your arms as you hit the big drop

It's not like Disney World could even legally do that.

How do people not see the problem with this?
I don’t want to get too political (not that this is even political). But to me this reads “We can only have ONE ride with a ‘black story’.”

Like seriously? Yes let’s put the movie about advanced civilization in the land based on the past.

It made sense for the 1800s folktale. It barely makes sense for the 1920s fairlytale. It makes no sense for this.

Petition for a new ride so we can have more than ONE Black Story. Or petition for more diversity in the films and new attractions. This is just...yuck. Boseman deserves better.

Can they not do a Wakanda ride as long as it does not have Black Panther himself?

Maybe? But why bother at that point.

 

[PizzaPlanet]

Why not both?

If we get AA's of the armored Rhinos, I am in. I am in if they do that. To heck with everything else.

It’s so dumb that Disney will probably do it(ie Mission: Box Office).

Just do a crossover. Dr Strange opens a portal and sends Princess Tiana to Wakanda. Boom!

 

[Queen of the WDW Scene]

I've never seen the movie.
I likely never will.
Its just not in my wheelhouse
Same goes for Avatar and Tron.
I think Princess and the Frog would work much better and I don't see them changing their mind to make it Black Panther.
Its likely "fans" that don't even go to the parks but just like that franchise that are petitioning for it.

With their present economic situation, I honestly don't see how they can even think about any type of redesign at this point.

Sounds to me like either clickbait, or else Disney releasing something into the fan base to make PatF look really, really good.

Clickbait?...at Copy and Co?...no way!

M:BE gets a lot of hate but I think it's great. Once Avenger area opens up it will be well integrated. The ride, queue, preshow are all great. They have to change things up in DLR and especially DCA so I'm ok with it.

When I first saw the title, I thought it was saying change Space Mountain to Black Panther and I was like, yeah I could see it... no real need to change it but could fit into Tomorrowland. Then I realized it was talking about Splash instead of PatF and I’m just scratching my head.

Wakanda in Frontierland?

Wakanda....In the Frontier.....

Sure, and Arendale is Norway...
