Tron is arguably the only expansion of MK that didn’t replace a previous attraction since Splash Mountain in 1992.

Can’t think of the word rn but these just roll and stick onto glass. I’ve used them before. They look good.

It’s the same reason New Fantasyland is a wash. This is from someone who actually enjoys it. We lost the skyway (technically 2 attractions), Snow White, and 20k. It makes perfect sense to do so. Just because a ride closed long ago without replacement doesn’t mean that we should forgive Disney...

The Jacobite pretender will sit on the throne of St Edward before Disney builds a park in South America.

When you expand the time horizon a bit, even if they build Villains land and Cars land land with 2 rides each, it will still be a net loss of 1 attraction. At one time, the RoA had: 2 riverboats, canoes, keel boats, and TSI.

So, I post a quote by Walt Disney supporting the idea that Frontierland is about the old west, your reaction is to say I hate Disney, then you say I’m not here for honest dialogue? I think that speaks for itself as to who is really here to dialogue.

You’re right the new one looks toned down. Lame!

Using that quote talking about technological innovation to justify the removal of the riverboat, which Walt loved at DL and would have loved at MK, is a stretch to say the least.

Because it is a massive project to fill in RoA and because the lay down yard requires a big clearing. Regulators are very very picky. Answering requests like this is often very expensive too because you have to hire consultants who specialize in what they’re asking for. I wonder if they’re at...

I think I’m missing something. Scaled down? What is and who said that? Thanks

“Here we experience the story of our country's past ... the colorful drama of Frontier America in the exciting days of the covered wagon and the stage coach ... the advent of the railroad ... and the romantic riverboat. Frontierland is a tribute to the faith, courage and ingenuity of the...

I would expect them to go back and forth with regulators multiple times before they get the green light to fill in the RoA.

As you can see from these photos I took in late 2020, the track is attached to a sliver of concrete, the majority of the riverbed is just like any other river: dirt. Needless to say, an “aging riverbed” is not the issue. There was much more done than just a new boiler. Many other things were...

This is simply not true. They extensively refurbished it just a few years ago. It’s also well maintained.

There’s definitely a lot of global uncertainty. The longshoremen strike is a massive blow. I certainly hope this project and Villain’s land get canceled that being said, I still see them going forward with this. They’ll probably just cut the budget massively or just cut the vaillains land.

Almost every attraction you mentioned is worse or will be replaced with something worse, except BTMRR. Biggest downgrade in MK history. First 20K, now this.

I think the biggest shift for me is the size of the figurines. We used to always buy the massive ones. Now, they’re so tiny!

I’m shocked that this is so close. PotC has massive, elaborate set pieces and is overall excellent. BTMRR is great too but nothing beats Pirates.

The target demographic has changed.

There has been massive storm surge in Tampa Bay which has flooded many homes. Lightning strikes exploded many transformers, sending sparks and downing power lines which has caused fires. Dozens of deaths across multiple states. Likely tens of billions of dollars in damages. If this isn’t too bad...
