I'd love to see this! As much as I loved Frozen, it's a shame they didn't stick with the original story. From what JimHillMedia has said, they had trouble developing the story into a workable screenplay because the original tale's ending was so anticlimactic--Kay and Gerda just walk out of the...
I was fourteen when my dad and I saw it in 1986, during its final re-release. (My dad and I often saw Disney movies together well into my teenage years, and we also took along the neighbor's little girl.) At the time, I'd only recently discovered Gone with the Wind so I got a kick out of...
:lol:
But what I meant is that there are areas that could use sprucing up. I'm not the first to notice that the Stretch Room wallpaper is showing track marks, thereby harming the illusion. And the sound system needs some improvement.
But as I said...that whole stupid spider area is just...
Boy, do I hope so. You know, when I was there at the end of May, for as much as I've always loved the Mansion, I noticed it was getting a little hoary and could use some cleanup here and there. (Not to mention the updates that DL has gotten/will be getting.)
But most of all, as we went by that...
ITA. As I said in another post, Captain Nemo was my first literary crush. At least in Tokyo, he's got a whole area of the park all to himself. (I'll get there...one day...) The only thing that would make it better is if they featured the good Captain in the Vulcania restaurant, playing the organ...
This could be achieved very simply.
According to Jason Surrell's book, there are a pair of swordfighting animatronics in the Paris version of the ride, conducting a very realistic and impressive swordfight while a maiden looks on.
So...re-create said swordfight, only with Will and another...
I remember, when on my senior class trip in '91, I got a silent scolding from Friar Tuck for my playful tug of Eeyore's tail. I bowed my head, said "Bless me, friar, I have sinned," and he patted my head and forgave me.
Don't get me wrong, I like Pocahontas, but it just doesn't give me the "classic Disney magic" feeling of Peter Pan. Therefore, I would love to see Peter Pan put in there in lieu of Pocahontas, or...
There was talk at one point of replacing the Pocahontas scenes with the Nautilus/squid battle...
I, too, live not far from Great Adventure, but I haven't been in about four years. (The only one of my friends who likes roller coasters hasn't been available due to his work schedule. And going on a weekend is RIGHT out due to crowds.)
I've never been on Superman, though I'd love to...
Ride ideas for Ichabod Crane and/or the Headless Horseman swarmed in the early days of Imagineering. For example, the Horseman was on the drawing boards for early conceptions of the Haunted Mansion. And before they built (snif) Mr. Toad's Wild Ride at WDW, they considered an Ichabod/Horseman...
I've long thought that a biopic of Walt would make for a great film. It would be problematic, however, for the reasons already mentioned.
But still...Ernest Rister did a fascinating article called "Citizen Walt." I don't know if it's still online. But he claimed that Walt was a severely abused...
I do hope this is true! I don't see any reason why we couldn't have two different rides in two different parks with similar ride systems. After all, there's more than one "dark ride" track system in Fantasyland, isn't there? And more than one 3-D film with in-theater effects? And there was more...
