A Set of Goofy Observations

[EPCOT Explorer]

Agreed in full jt. I've said this before to friends, if they would add a few things and rework some old attractions (Animation, Sounds Dangerous, Indy Stunt Show, Beauty and the Beast and update Fantasmic!) it would be an outstanding park.

Oh, and tear that retched Hat down.



I hope, but it still needs something.... and new management. :brick:

Something? I think they have it covered. :lookaroun :lol:

 

[_Scar]

Hopefully it does. I'm hoping after FL is complete, they do something about TL. That's a land that needs a bit of help as well.

Adventureland. Our TLand isn't THAT bad. :lol:

 

[krankenstein]

Adventureland. Our TLand isn't THAT bad. :lol:

TL is pretty bad.

1 attraction that needs to go.

1 attraction that should be at DHS.

2 attractions that need rehabs. (1 of which just had one)

1 attraction that is decent, but could use a good bit of improving.... and the removal of FP.

And 1 HUGE waste of land.

JC needs updated effects
Tiki is a disaster
This area has not seen expansion since Aladdin
Retheme or change Agrabah tent area- tacky
Swiss Treehouse is outdated

The only thing it has going for it is the Pirate area and Dole Whips.


To me, ALand seems like the most dull place in MK- and it should be one the fun lands filled with excitement.

Adventureland. Our TLand isn't THAT bad. :lol:

Adventureland could use some help too. Definately has room for expansion. In TL Stitch HAS to go, they should just gut that theater, COP needs an update, and Something needs to be done with the speedway. I'm not sure what, but something. Also the Laugh Floor really as no place in TL. Belongs more in DHS where everything else Pixar is. Putting the laugh floor there in the first place is REALLY stretching the TL theme anyway.

I agree with MILF, but ALL Pixar should not just be in PP.

ICPs should not be allowed to work heavily spieling attractions, but that's just me.

Yeah, as horrible as it sounds, I agree. I mean, both the guy and girl were very energetic and seemed to love their job - but the language barrier is a problem. I feel really bad for the guests on those boats who had never been on JC before - they don't know what it's all about.

Agreed. The Land just needs a bit of a visual refreshening.


As you said, the Pirates area works VERY well.

And Indy!!!

 

[_Scar]

And Indy!!!

No, let's be a little more original.... Up or Aladdin E-ticket!

 

[Next Big Thing]

Well first of everything that needs to happen in Aland is Aladdin needs to go. It's just in the way and there is already to many spinny rides in MK.

 

[_Scar]

I somewhat agree. I think Aladdin needs a presence in MK, but then again the ride shouldn't be what's representing the movie.... I'm torn.

 

[SirGoofy]

No, let's be a little more original.... Up or Aladdin E-ticket!

Neither would give MK the shot in the arm that Indy would.

there's no convincing you though. :lol:

 

[SirGoofy]

there's no convincing you though. :lol:

No, because I'm right. I don't want to seem like an A hole on this one, but another cartoon ride will do nothing to boost MK's image, no matter what the style of ride is.

Disney's Animal Kingdom

The park is still a terrific example of what Disney can do when they go all out with theming, but it still needs a few more attractions, especially ones that can keep the park open until nighttime all year round. I've never been awed at the beauty of a park at night more than DAK.

Everest...man that Yeti needs to be fixed. Currently the ride is like an action movie without a climax. Having him suspended there is so incredibly lame, I almost can't describe it. And don't tell me how B mode is a suitable replacement. It's not. The whole ride is a build up for a final, climactic confrontation with the beast, and having him stationary and barely visible is a lame payoff, and the guests notice. I went on Everest a good 8-10 times, and each times I heard comments of, "That's it?" or "Where was the yeti?". Not to mention having the yeti broken really brings to light the other short comings of the ride, such as the light leaks in the tunnels and the general lack of theming along the second half of the ride.

Kilimanjaro is still an amazing and terrific ride, and is probably in the Top 5-10 on the resort.

It's Tough to Be a Bug is looking great, and all effects were working.

Dinosaur is still a heck of a ride, but they need to fix the lighting in that place. Some of the animatronics are barely visible, where other places the walls of the ride are clearly visible and really ruins the show.

Didn't waste our time in Dinorama, but my mom gave me the quote of the week while passing. Completely unprompted she says, "That place is so stupid and tacky. I really wish they'd get rid of it." I promptly gave her a big hug.

Finding Nemo the Musical is such a terrific show, as well as Festival of the Lion King. I find it odd that DAK has the two best stage shows on property and not DHS, but that's just me.

It was way too cold for Kali, so we skipped it.

As much as I love DAK, it does need some more offerings. I love the trails and the exhibits, but it's still a theme park and needs more attractions.

How is something based on a existing movie and franchise original. WDI can REALLY do something new here.

No, because I'm right. I don't want to seem like an A hole on this one, but another cartoon ride will do nothing to boost MK's image, no matter what the style of ride is.

In your OPINION.


I still think it would work well in DHS.

DAK sounds awesome, can't wait to return in June.


How was the upkeep?

 

[SirGoofy]

In your OPINION.

In my educated opinion. One of the biggest complaints I've heard from people inside and outside the park is how MK is too cartoon oriented.

I still think it would work well in DHS.

Sure it would work well. Just not as well.

How was the upkeep?

Good, other than the things that are always broken.:lol:

 

[krankenstein]

Indy = DHS

Original ride = AL

Remember, I'm right! I'm a teacher! :king: :lookaroun

Educated, but highly biased, Mr. JC Skipper.

MK is too much Toon, I agree.


It'd work amazingly well.

:lol: for upkeep. You know what I mean.

Exactly...
