Snow White and Jungle Cruise are great originals that always seem to have a 1-2 hour wait time by the afternoon. What a wise decision it would be to replace these wonderful and HEAVILY used attractions! If anything it would be wise to use unused space and expand with a new ride in the Magic Kingdom rather than replace a beloved old ride with some new replacement of a current movie that has yet to show the sustained power of a Snow White or Jungle Cruise!
What about an attraction where our beloved 20,000 leagues was? Maybe a revamped and explosive new 20,000 leagues or a Little Mermaid water ride attraction? At least do this before even contemplating the demise of great and very POPULAR "old" attractions like Snow White and the Jungle Cruise---which by the way have far greater attendance than the "newer" and much more exspensive Alien Encounter in Tomorrowland which has already lost its sustaining power! Go figure!

Well, you're partly right. Snow White is a great original....but Jungle Cruise is definitely not. It would be extremely wise to replace this piece of crap, waste-of-time attraction. Snow White may stay.

So see? You're way smarter about this than I am! If it weren't for my friend, I wouldn't have an avatar at all!
Sweetums- That was really funny! Lets be friends. Next time we are at Disney World lets ride the Snow White attraction........together. We can marvel at the cardboard cut outs that dart in front of us and the Disney Store-like Mannequins that turn around to scare us. We will wonder why the Witch speaks but her mouth doesn't move and we will be thankful that even though the technology is available to make the attraction better, it will always stay the same.

I realize that this technically would be an engineering nightmare. That being said, I simply refuse to believe that the folks in imagineering who do all the "magical" things they do, can not find a way to support the walls and safely empty the lagoon while keeping the park open at the same time.

Perhaps Snow white does need an upgrade in its technology, maybe rename it "Snow White's Scary Adventure Tour" or "Snow White II:the adventure continues" since Disney is so keen on sequels.Add a drop, kinda like the one Snow white takes in the forest.Or a runaway mine ride throught the dwarfs' mine. The 20k lagoon, turned it into Peter Pan 2:return to neverland. HA HA HA.
I believe the cutouts and mannequins used in the rides are to cater for young kids not for older adults.I remember when i was a kid it use to scare me when the witch turned around.Now that im an adult, I can see the set lighting, the tracks, and strings. So frankly its a matter of perspective.Maybe the next time you go on it, slide down in the seat and look at the ride from a kids point of view.:king:

NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE SNOW WHITE!!!!!!! That is one of my favorite rides to go on at Disney World. If they would take out that ride, they would be crushing my childhood memories....ok, not really. It would just bum me out for awhile. And then I would probably love the ride that would replace it. But there would be a ten minute period where I would be inconsolable. :drevil:

There have been NUMEROUS threads about 20K lagoon. For all ya that just joined, Welcome Aboard-- Please stand clear of the doors. :hammer:
Do a quick thread search and take a gander at some of the old 20K threads. You'll be amazed at the info there and it will help explain why the lagoons sit empty at BOTH WDW and DL (similar at DL...)
A good thing though... With the creation of Tokyo DisneySea, Imagineers have discovered the secrets of water retention and how to design attractions so that something like 20K does not happen again.
Happy Reading---
OFF TOPIC---
Does anyone have a pic or three of the inside of the 20K warehouse??? I've always been curious of the ride track design and layout, ans well as what the interior of the building looks like(we already know what it smells like...)
