It's crazy to think that these tents exist in the same land as New Fantasyland. Say what you want about the attractions themselves, but that area is so beautiful. I'd really love for them to re-think the entire theming of the original Fantasyland, it could definitely be elevated.

That should have happened for the 50th
Not just brighter paint
Too much else is in disarray at the moment for this to have ever been a priority for the 50th even in the most ideal of circumstances. Tomorrowland has been in dire need of attention for a while. The jousting tent facades, meanwhile, are perfectly fine. They could certainly be much more, but the park needs more capacity and a functioning Tomorrowland more desperately than it needs a prettier alley behind the castle.

They definitely could and should be, but it seems to the be that shipped has sailed for at least the near future. Here’s to a glimpse of what we could have (it’s nice to look)

Tbh, I think it makes WDW all the more unique from DL now.. a bit of a leftover of classic pre-‘83 DL Fantasyland if you will. I like it. You have a bit of classic Fantasyland on one side with the new stuff on the other side.

Disneyland’s fantasyland reminds me of the series once upon a time as far as the buildings go where as ours kind of looks like a Carnival. Lol.

The tents are part of the park’s history; I for one would be sad to lose them.

And so were these (at least on the left coast)

Very true, but in this instance, in my view, the tents simply add something unique to WDW that are not at DL and it keeps a little more of the ‘Walt’ in Walt Disney World that more & more has seemed to be dissipating from WDW in recent years.
And while yeah, true these costumes certainly are a piece of history. They were tastefully updated over time to simply be more accurate/consistent to their original animated selves rather than the latter. Even Walt wasn’t happy with those costumes.

Seems like I forgot about the Disney Store figures glued on to the tent exteriors and the theater show randomly being designed like it was meant for Toontown in '55 Fantasyland.
