Great. First a CGI remake full of what looked like animated taxidermy, and now a ride with...AA animated taxidermy.

What the hell is WRONG with Disney these days? This is gonna suck!
Just because the realistic movie didn’t translate well doesn’t mean that a realistic ride won’t.

Let them tell the story and judge the ride on its own merits not the movie’s. Pretend as if it’s original IP and there is no Lion King movie.

It's like imagining your grandparent or parent as an audio-animatronic or those AI models. It can't replace the real person, and has a real chance, that even if done well, is unsettlingly creepy and disappointing. He's not a character to exploit.
there’s a reason Walt didn’t like the Uncle Walt persona towards the end- he hated being seen as a character. Unfortunately Iger will milk the Walt character until the end of time

If Lion King attraction is based on the 2019 film that may be one of the dumbest things they've ever done. Imagine they announced a Jungle Book attraction for AK and it's based on the CGI film 💀

The "live action" Jungle Book is actually better than the original. It's pretty much the only live action film where I would say that.

I'd actually prefer that if they ever put JB in DAK that they use the live action version. Would fit better.

But Lion King should definitely be the original for anywhere. It's just so vastly superior.
