News Announced: Mary Poppins Attraction in UK Pavilion

[Magenta Panther]

I hope Poppins is back in the running for this attraction. And that the attraction will be decent. It'd be nice to have something to look forward to regarding WDW's new offerings. I had high hopes for the Mickey ride, but...yeah. No longer care.

I hope it isn't Brave. I could do without more princesses in the World Showdcase

At the moment, it seems that the current proposal is a B-Ticket Mary Poppins Attraction, so it’s most likely a Carousel, however I hope it’s at least an indoor 360° Carousel with show scenes like @Magicart87 proposed

Did I miss a post from an insider saying it's definitely a B and definitely Mary Poppins and likely a carousel?

 

[Magic Feather]

The Brave proposal would have made people very happy as a back to basics type ride. ENot sure if any of the others would have. As for the future, it will be pleasant.

@marni1971 did said that it was a B-ish Ticket attraction. About it being a Mary Poppins Carousel @RSoxNo1 asked Martín if it could be related to what Jim Hill reported at the end of July about the addition being Cherry Tree Lane with a carousel and he answered that the changes happened after July/August, so it was my assumption based on that

Do you think that there’s still a chance for the Brave attraction to be done? Or are they most likely going for the current proposal? It sounds like the Brave attraction could have been great

So Brave is officially out? None of the future proposals contain a classic dark ride?

So, is this the first confirmation from an insider here that it was actually Brave under consideration? I think everyone else had just hinted....

As if an official announcement means anything. Lots of things have been announced then quietly faded into the dark

I believe everything announced since Iger became CEO has happened. Correct me if I am wrong.

Lol, you know that is not true.

Lol, you know that is not true.

Details please.

 

[EricsBiscuit]

I think everything announced right now will be built. Especially since SDL is a huge profitable success.

 

[jt04]

Lol, you know that is not true.

Oh, if you mean HW, well DS is HW on steroids.

I know there is a hint there I am just not picking up...

This original Brave attraction keeps getting curiouser and couriouser. So a back to basic ride but according to @marni1971 not a ride system currently in the park. So that kind of leads me back to a Snow White style dark ride, but would that even be consider a B-ticket ride? I'm sure this info will come out soon but we have been waiting quite a while now.

I get the impression it would have been a Fantasyland-esque dark ride. But it seems to have been neutered and de-Brave'd.

The Life I Lead
Lyrics from "Mary Poppins"
Composed by Robert B. Sherman and Richard M. Sherman

I feel a surge of deep satisfaction
Much as a king astride his noble steed
When I return from daily strife to hearth and wife
How pleasant is the life I lead

Hyperion Wharf never happened. Even if it did end up becoming Disney Springs.

The first two words of "The Beautiful Briny" from Bedknobs and Broomsticks (Ironically enough also sung by David Tomlinson) are, "How Pleasant".
