News Announced: Mary Poppins Attraction in UK Pavilion

[HauntedMansionFLA]

Frozen Ever After is a "mega E-ticket ride"? Funniest thing you'll read this week, ladies and gentlemen.

So... when is the Poppins ride coming?

Disney did not announce an opening date. We will have to wait and see.

The BatB sing along will replace that outdated/poor quality film.

The sing-along will be running alternately with IDF. Which is beautiful, by the way, even though most of it was shot in the 80s.

Ummm... France already has a short movie attraction, plus the acrobats. UK has concerts. Canada has the 360 theater, plus there is another concert stage in between Canada and UK.

I'm talking real attractions, not something I can watch on youtube and get the same enjoyment from.

By that rationale, you chose your username based on an outdated/poor quality attraction.

Replaced a C-ride with a mega E-ticket ride.

You mean put an E ride theme onto a C ride? My question was more so what area of expanded guest areas where there. (Like france)

Hell. i never even argued frozens placement i just thought it deserved a brand new ground breaking attraction to match the blockbuster film. But we have a sing along on a boat so theres that.

It’s the best Disney ride ever. That’s why I went with the name. I’m best of the best!!

True. It should have been over at MK replacing the entire Speedway. Second would have been DHS. They could replace the SW launch Bay with an entire Frozen Land

there is plenty of space for a Frozen ride without replacing the Speedway...get rid of the circus tents and there is as much space as the Little Mermaid attraction Queue and meet and Greet show building. We need to stop thinking about replace and think more about add...

Getting rid of the circus tents is replacing

I have no idea what that means... You would lose a big gift shop, a meet and greet and a third tent no one understands... It would not impact the Dumbo ride... Though honestly I would rather see them use this space for an expanded new Peter Pan ride and Neverland section...and put maybe a Tangled attraction in the old Peter Pan building.

Genius!!!!!!

The Walt Disney Company did not give an opening date for the attraction. Maybe the next D23??

 

[DisneyDreamerxyz]

do we think construction will start on this (at least land clearing) before the end of the year, or does Imagineering really still have no clue what this "attraction" will be and are still deciding on budget and ideas ? If they don't start soon it's unlikely it would even open in time for 2021.

Any possibility of a Vekoma Madhouse? Someone posted a video of the one at Efteling in another thread and I couldn’t help but think of I Love to Laugh and Turning Turtle when I saw it.

I hope not -- I hate Disney taking stock rides that exist elsewhere and just slapping some theming on top. Everything at Disney should be unique.

So after this, each country pavillion will have its own IP tie-in.

Well, except Canada. But they could just throw in...

hmmm...

no, that wouldn't work...

nah, too erotic...

maybe... no...

Uh oh.

uhhh, does anyone know if they ever animated Elias Disney into anything?

 

[Touchdown]

The only IP that fits in Canada is Brother Bear (definitely Canada) and maybe Good Dinosaur (although that movie is really set in Wyoming.)

Seeing as neither movie set the world on fire I doubt we’ll see them anytime soon. Also, let me know when the US Pavillion gets any IP last I checked the American Adventure remains IP free.

...I think we should get back on topic to Poppins in the UK
