Ariel's Adventure (Little Mermaid E Ticket) CONFIRMED!

[HMF]

It's a little out of order....


But, if put in the RIGHT order and built on the larger scale that we ARE getting...WOW. It'll be great.

The reason it is out of order is because WDI wanted to start it with a big song and end it with a big song. When you adapt the movies to a ride you have to make some adjustments to the story so that it fits.

I really could care less if it is an E or D. I just want a fantasic dark ride and an amazing expansion of Fantasyland (scenery/atmosphere wise, other than that it's nothing that amazing except Be Our Guest).

 

[ABigBrassBand]

That is not the same Attraction.

Oh, then I was misinformed.

Sorry 'bout that.

This is a great post IMHO. I also believe that things are continuing to move in the right direction. I think that we're going to see several great things happen in the next decade.

This just proves Canadians are smarter and better hockey players. :wave:

My question is: did it start out as an E and then get budget cut down to a D or was it always a D ride?:shrug:

 

[unkadug]

My philosophy...expect a "D" and if it's more then you will be surprised and happy.

If you expect an "E" and then get a "D" you will be nothing but upset and bitter.

It means it's suitable for Elderly people.

No, it was a ticket system that was originally incorporated at Disneyland through the 1970's, I believe. The attractions were rated A, B, C, D, E and the cost of the ticket went up with the letters. Thus, an "E" ticket cost more per ride than an "A" one. The designation is used on these boards to discuss the quality of current or potential future rides (such as new ones in the FL expansion).

I'm sorry, but why are E-tickets so great nowadays when you don't even receive the booklets anymore? Does that mean a better quality ride?

And for those looking, look at this:

AFAIK, this set up for the Little Mermaid was released as an extra on a Disney DVD and was a plan for an attraction at Disneyland Paris but it never came to life. It was supposed to use the same trackless technology used in TDL's Pooh's Hunny Hunt.

Edit: Just had a quick re-look at that video and from the first few seconds I can see the trackless idea Im talking about is a pile of rubbish. I must be getting confused with another attraction...what else was supposedly going to go trackless?

Good God, don't you know sarcasm when you hear it?

No, and perhaps the person asking the question may not either. Did you consider that before posting your snark?

I guess there are a lot of people who have not seen A Charlie Brown Christmas. Good viewing for the humorless.

I dont know about you guys but a E ticket ride is something that makes u scared or at least tickles ur tummy lol .... if its on par with HM (a Excellent Ride) not a E Ticket ... just a visually stunning ride .... but no thrill

I'm glad that the Little Mermaid ride we are getting is not that little one in the video that was all paper pretty much, at least I hope ours isn't. I want something that will make me say "WoW! This is amazing!!"
