It used to be a drive through safari with separate admission until several years ago.

Like I said a few times before.. the whole "triggered" thing is a dumb excuse used by aholes to try to silence things that make them uneasy.. that they hate.. nothing to do with a real emotional trigger based on a real traumatic event.
hence the joke of this image macro to mock these guys who overuse the "omg, you triggered me!".
Examples of REAL triggers:
Someone force kisses a friend, the friend gets awful flashbacks of a time he or someone got raped violently.
Stupid "excuse" triggers:
Someone thinks gays are gross, and thus he demands everyone to dont mention anything related to gays while he's in public.

probably why they want to focus exclusively on pure tentpoles.. they expect to always have box office hits with zero (non risk) movies.

I wonder if they will do better in the DVD/Bluray.Sorry to beat a dead horse (that never happens on WDWMagic
Are we seeing yet again where domestic sales are not important anymore even though they're reported as being the only factor in the success or failure of a movie?
Now I realize that this is still considered a "flop" by any standard if it can't make its budget back, but part of that could also be the headlines about how terrible it did on opening weekend.
Reminds me of the performance of dragons and rise of the guardians.
they were disappointed despite high expectations. but recovered a lot thanks to dvd bluray sales.

seen it.. it has been posted everywhere on social websites.I think we call them Scooters.
BTW, anyone seen that viral video of the two women fighting in the Wal-mart shampoo aisle? The woman in the scooter is mad she can't get past, so she jumps up and starts a physical fight with someone - as someone just pointed out on The Talk - that was the real story, that she was in a scooter the jumped up and started fighting for several minutes like she was "Captain America" LOL.
I feel sorry for the kid.. I bet he will have a future of drug dealing and other bad things by having an awful mom.
Also, why the hell was she using a scooter? she jumped and fought more than a WWF cage match finale.

Man, where were all these doom & gloom voices back when Lion King was popular? How many people would have complained about WDW became Lion-ified when that movie got 2 parades, 3 attractions, and eventually an entire theme park based around that one (popular) film.
Read what is being said. Major elements of Norway’s culture will remain (even be beefed up a bit). All that’s going away was a much-dated attraction that was most notable for its heckling value and how disjointed its story was.
Frozen will bring more people to the pavilion, where then they can explore the history of Norway along with it. Walt knew that by entertainment, you can spur the need to learn.

To the last few comments, we get that, but folks like me feel that the ride DOES belong in World Showcase and in the Norway pavilion (the story it’s based on, The Snow Queen, originated in the Scandinavian countries, so it fits). And don’t worry–they’re not changing the pavilion completely and they are not going to trash World Showcase!
Also, Magic Kingdom is already EXTREMELY crowded a lot and that’s another reason why the Frozen ride is being built at Epcot–to lure some of the guests away from the over-crowded Magic Kingdom and into the in-need-of-an-attemdance-boost Epcot. Plus, Magic Kingdom is mostly landlocked now anyway.

Christine on June 9th, 2015 at 4:47 pm
I applaud Disney Parks blog for leaving the negative comments up–a step in the right direction.
I’m hoping against hope this attraction isn’t the Little Mermaid ride (Frozen style). If it’s to eventually be accepted, despite being in the wrong park, it needs to be more than just a ride-through of the movie scenes. Please let it be more than that.

Ill echo Thomas F’s comment – I plan on being at the opening of Port Arendelle at Tokyo DisneySEA. EPCOTs version will be “cute”, but at what cost?

Fred from CA on June 9th, 2015 at 4:48 pm
I guarantee, even if this attraction were going in Magic Kingdom, some people would still be hateful of it.

Christopher from CA on June 9th, 2015 at 4:54 pm
The ride sounds awesome, but as it is set in a fictional country, it belongs somewhere else.
It could have been fit into Hollywood Studios, which desperately needs more family friendly attractions. It could have been put into Fantasyland, which still has tons of unused space. It could have really been put anywhere else and fit in thematically, it does not fit into World Showcase.

Lorrie from TX on June 9th, 2015 at 5:07 pm
This is so disappointing. While I think the ride concept is lovely why in the world are you doing this to the world showcase. I understand that it might not be the favorite of every preschooler but to turn it into this is just wrong.

Peter on June 9th, 2015 at 5:09 pm
All the negative remarks serve no purpose. Those of us who have been going to Disney since 1971 look forward to something new. We go to Disneyworld 3 times a week from October to May and look forward to some changes. Frozen is based on a town in Norway and is pretty close to places that exist. Nothing stays the same forever.
56
Philip on June 9th, 2015 at 5:15 pm
Christopher, it DOES belong in World Showcase. Regardless, Arendelle is still Norway, no matter how you slice it or dice it.
I also already explained why Magic Kingdom is not getting the Frozen ride–MK is over-crowded and also landlocked.

I can’t believe how much hate this ride is getting. It’s Frozen! Everyone loves Frozen!
So what if it’s not based on a real country. Why is that a first? Like Morocco is a real country. It was just made up so that Mo’Rockin had a place to play!
So what if there will seemingly not be much of Norway left in the pavilion? Princesses are real, I saw that one was just born in London, and that’s Europe, and all of Europe is the same thing anyway!
So what if the story of this attraction seems to not be a real story, and instead just a ride past our favorite characters? Who rides rides for stories anyway? If I want a story, I’ll turn on Reading Rainbow!
So what if an expansion pad is being turned into a giant meet and greet? Meet and Greets are just the interactive cosplay attraction of the future, allowing fans to interact with franchise characters and build their bond with the brands they love!
Let it Go all you h8ters, thaw your Frozen Heart! For the First Time In Forever, Disney is tearing down an existing attraction to build a new one. Maelstrom was always a bit of a Fixer Upper anyway. This place is going to be a madhouse, and who doesn’t Wanna Build a Snowman In Summer? Look deep inside think about the new ride and realize that Reindeers are better than People. I for one cannot wait for this attraction to finish and I can prove that Love is an Open Door to the new Frozen Ever After ride!

this is a win/win for my family. If This ride turns out to be spectacular (and not a letdown like the little mermaid) we will have reason to keep coming back, if not it will at least gather crowds and make wait times less for other attractions for us. My children are at a point where they have been frozened out and groan when let it go comes on in various forms at disney parks.

Christine–
Contrary to popular belief, Disney Parks blog has ALWAYS allowed negative comments, provided of course that they are not inappropriate. As some examples; There are plenty of negative comments on the announcement post for Avatar Land. As well as the post about California Adventure’s Disney Dance Crew show in 2010 (the show was ultimately short-lived.
Incidentally, there are in fact some Disney fans sites that delete comments if they are not praising their rumor posts.
I just wish that Disneyland Resort in California would get a Frozen ride.

Well Hello Kitty and Shrek clash just a little bit
I'd rather that entire area go Hello Kitty than have Lucy turned into it, while Shrek stays.
What else could replace Shrek that would fit next to DM and Hello Kitty?
