[larryz]

I'll take anything that is not a food booth.......

I'd be ok with the "Mary Poppins' Spoonful Of Sugar" stand...

Fair point.

 

[smile]

I find there's already enough of them in Disney World.

as opposed to what?...
coasters? simulators? water slides?

something as of yet unseen?

 

[rioriz]

I would expect to see movement on this by the end of the Summer

So they have finally decided on the attraction and IP?

In general. I think once all the additions are put in for the 50th, we will have enough coasters too. I guess it's all more of a case of what kind of rides you enjoy

Not a huge surprise but I did hear today that a Mary Poppins dark ride has been approved and work begins within 6 months. We will see if they stay the course here.

FINALLY!

But yeah, let's hope they stay the course.

Is this still expected for 2020?

If they actually begin this year, it’d open in 2020 like Kitchen Calamity.

If that's the case, they will begin construction almost simultaneously with the release of the movie.

Did you expect a cash wager? Been burnt by sharing info about this mercurial company before. I always suggest waiting until a structure actually goes vertical. But this is a rumors board. More concrete items appear on the main page. Peter Pan’s Flight finally getting updates is another rumor that I will treat with caution until it actually closes for refurb.

The proposal I heard about is pretty charming. Not ostentatious. Kind of like the UK.

No I hear ya...I hope your info proves true.

But when I get flamed for "doubting the insiders!!!"...you see the pattern there, right?

Thanks for the tips...come what may (or may not )

Oh I don’t blame someone for doubting me. My info doesn’t always prove correct.

I think it’s fun knowing about projects that do and do not come to pass as long as every once in awhile we actually get a great ride! 2000-2010 were a bit depressing...

By 'dark ride', you mean like Mary's magic turning to necromancy as she raises Bert from the dead for an animated dance scene?

It’s going to be a cross between Donnie Darko and Requiem for a Dream.
