News Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

[Advisable Joseph]

There is nothing in the new show that sets it in the 20th century correct?

Rock 'n' roll?

 

[Stripes]

not at all - from a time perspective nothing had a set time period until Tiana which is still 1920’s correct? Now we are plopping modern cars into the same land.

It’s the same land, but the modern cars will be hidden from the area of Frontierland we can stand in today. You’ll have to go around a bend, so you’ll never see the cars and current Frontierland at the same time.

There’ll be a natural progression of time taking place, going from horse and buggy, to the early cars of the twenties (Tiana’s queue), to the modern cars of today. It’s deepening the American idea of exploring new frontiers, from land to technology.

That is yet to be determined

Hi there - what did I say that does not make sense and how am I starting to hurt people?

Zanetti is an undisputable insider, and you would have to be delusional to believe that he is gaslighting people.

You are enraging people by pulling people into your delusion. Please stop. You cannot change reality by delusion.

 

[Stripes]

Oh, it’s been determined, but I know you’ll have to see it with you own eyes before you believe it.

 

[Brer Panther]

I think they’re trying to say how Splash Mountain, taking place in Georgia, does not fit the initial theme of the western frontier.

Does Tiana, though?

While I disagree with that statement I’m not the one who said he was gaslighting people.

Are you one of his students? Did I hurt his fragile ego or something haha.

 

[TrainsOfDisney]

Does Tiana, though?

The ride has issues - but it doesn’t cancel out the vibe of the area except for the Tiara which is what it is. It’s not a natural fit, but it can work.

And to be completely fair to Disney - Tiana is a natural fit for Disneyland to bridge New Orleans square and critter / bayou country so the retheme was very logical there.

Except DHS got a net gain of 3 new rides on the former area of just 1.

They put attractions and expanded the walkable areas in parts that was formerly non accessible to guests. Backlot was all facades with nothing but a few shops and playground. BLT was a waste of space

In the final years of the area, yes.

Still less to do than years prior and both rides in new area have height requirements.

Entertainment void compared to park previously.

 

[MisterPenguin]

Even when there is evidence that Inagineering might be trying to tweak the project to keep the southern island,

Ummm... what evidence?

 

[Schmidt]

People are allowed to be upset. No need to receive permission from you.

Good thing comprehension isn’t your problem….

The gaps makes you realize this ride was designed for Disneyland. As for what WDW was to get instead seemed interesting thought with everything else having a different theme aside Galaxy's Edge

EPCOT from 2019 through 2024 was a walled experience with construction defining the park experience. I cannot help but wonder if the devotion of Disney Parks fans is great enough to overlook a 10-year construction zone at Magic Kingdom.

We will not stop going to Walt Disney World, but pervasive construction and the subsequent departure from immersion will likely result in few to no visits to Magic Kingdom.

 

[Andrew C]

They are being told the reasons why this is happening,

And we either disagree with the reasons or think the reasons being put out there are just an excuse to make it out like they didn’t have a choice. Nothing to do with denial or being toxic. It’s just being a fan of something…

Georgia, where Splash Mountain and its source film Song of the South is not and never was the Frontier (West). The point is valid that the Cars proposal at least takes place in the Frontier, albeit at a different time, which Splash Mountain did not. Tiana is on the cusp given you could argue the Louisiana Purchase catalyzed the west-ward migration that defined the Frontier

What made it even worse for the EPCOT work was after all that time and the walls came down how disappointing it was!

We really have no idea what we are going to end up with in the MK after the walls come down 10 or so years from now!

I expect to be disappointed, if I am still alive to see it.

that’s why I said time perspective.

Splash and now Tiana had a natural fit theme wise in Disneyland - and a bit of a shoe-horn in MK. In both cases the imagineers made them work (in only one case did the actual ride work…. Was only operating 20% of today! Haha).

So underwhelming that I actually preferred walking by Creation Shop with the walls for at that time it looked like it would been better than the reality just by seeing trees being planted or construction.

The source material may have been Georgia but the ride itself never felt like that at all. It felt like as it should, the frontier. Amazing what imagineers could do at one time.

Toxic fandom. They are being told the reasons why this is happening, and they're going into denial.

Even when there is evidence that Imagineering might be trying to tweak the project to keep the southern island, they still twist into pretzels to deny it.

I would hope that is evidence and for once those at Disney are listening or considering for once... wonder what the reasons for The Red Trolley now in DCA right after this is about*.
