News 'Beyond Big Thunder Mountain' Blue Sky concept revealed for Magic Kingdom

[JohnD]

Alicia Stella has said she believes Moana is going in Adventureland as a boat ride think mini Splash Mountain.

She also believes Coco is what lies beyond big thunder mountain using that more intense Soarin’ ride system.

There are already two boat rides in Adventureland -- Jungle Cruise -- which has already been revamped to remove "questionable" scenes and POTC. Where does she think a third Moana boat ride would go?

What our insiders have been saying for the past week... the expansion pad SW of PotC.

I believe this is the expansion plot everyone has been talking about.

So, on the west side of the park four boat rides -- Jungle Cruise, POTC, Tiana, and a new Moana ride. Aren't the three existing rides, with Tiana opening soon, enough? Let's not forget IASW in Fantasyland.

Oh, and she also thinks the Mickey Views report is BS just to weed out the leakers.

Moana is a different kind of boat ride.

But nobody complained about Jungle, Pirates, and Splash all in a row for 30 years, so this probably wouldn’t change that anyway.

Well, to be fair they all are very different kind of rides aside from maybe Pirates and IASW and even then they have completely different vibes.

 

[Starship824]

And the Seven Seas Ferry!!

And the liberty square riverboat!

Correct, not sure why WDI has an obsession with boat rides now.

Parts of it, absolutely.

There are grains of truth in the RSR chatter, but from what I hear it isn't a realistic proposal for MK.

Tom Sawyer rafts?

 

[PREMiERdrum]

Tom Sawyer rafts?

And those camels that spit water?

 

[JohnD]

Tom Sawyer rafts?

That isn't really a "ride" but a means to get to TSI.

 

[Starship824]

Tom Sawyer rafts?

They also used to have the swan boats although of course those have been gone for years.

 

[JohnD]

They also used to have the swan boats

And Mike Fink Keel Boats.

 

[MisterPenguin]

And those camels that spit water?

And everywhere one to two hours a day in the Summer!!
