News Announced: Mary Poppins Attraction in UK Pavilion

[GiveMeTheMusic]

We know they have an animatronic Bert and Mary sitting in a warehouse somewhere.....

I'm not sure what happened to Mary, but Bert isn't in a warehouse. He's now in a private collection.

I don't like TB's MP concept because of the ride system. It spins too much and it's outdoors, which isn't good for FL.

Tell that to Primeval Whirl!

My idea for a Mary Poppins attraction would be a Carousel where the horses come off the carousel and into a dark ride. It loads like a normal carousel with a track switch that puts it into an omnimover portion.

Is Primeval Whirl supposed to be a defense for spinning attractions? I think you should try again.

Sort of like the carousel part of the original Journey into Imagination?

Hmmm... wonder if an LPS vehicle can have several bobbing carousel horses instead of just seats...

More a case study in the management of WDW.

Wow, really....that is interesting...I assumed they would have kept that for future development...

Oh but at least the parking lot is well themed!

Mary's the backup for Jane masquerading as the Redd Head

I mean, it really is.

I get the criticisms of Dino-Rama, but I also appreciate the level of work that went into the design.

I needed a trip to the chiropractor after this ride. Hope UK ride is different

Imagineerland posted this (http://imagineerland.blogspot.com/2015/03/mary-poppins-jolly-holiday.html?_sm_au_=iJVR10DDQSSDFHNP) concept a few years ago which would be pretty cool as well where the ride starts out as a standard carousel which then breaks up into a single train of cars which moves through the attraction as a large group. Would be a much better option at least with regards to capacity and loading.

...as was done in the original of Imagination...

Kinda like this? That was the original Tony Baxter design.

Guests would be happier if it was based on James Baxter.

I really don't remember it. I should watch Martin's video again... I miss that ride and still have my 89's plush Figment.

Dear God please no
