Disney confirms 'Frozen' makeover coming to Epcot's Norway Pavilion

[Big Bad Wolf]

My friends who have seen the artist renderings, said it could be a good ride if they make the ride exactly like the artist renderings and don't cheap out on it.

This will not be a cheap ride to update. Everyone will love the new attraction.

No, they won't....

Everyone doesn't even love Frozen. What are the odds the attraction is more popular than the movie?

Pretty sure wen I sign on tomorrow this thread will be 100 pages long of mindless info.

You expect it to be less? This is what frozen does to our little community. It tears us apart, then binds us, then back apart. Akin to something Red Green might build...

I could not agree more.

What could we tear down in the UK so we could put up a Brave attraction?

LOL

Everyone doesn't love ANYTHING in the world.
Name something, I'll find you people that hate it.

Of course it will be. Cheap as chips. Even for WDI.

Oxygen.

Especially when dragged out over multiple quarters....

Get over it. Finally we are making the changes that need to be made in order to freshen the place up. Disneyland doesn't look like the same park that opened 59 years ago. EPCOT needs the attention and you will be thrilled with the numerous changes.

Wrong. 1 page of info. 99 pages of mindless.

I've been thinking this for a while. Others have touched on it as well.

What happens when Frozen is forgotten?

You can throw any numbers you want around, but will the movie be remembered years from now? Most of the rides and attractions are there because they've stood some test of time. This "fad" hasn't proven anything except for Disney marketing works and it got people into the movie theater, there's a snowman and an annoying song to go with it.

Maelstrom never did it for me anyway.

Maelstrom was hyped before it opened as Epcot's Pirates of the Caribbean, but it never was. It just wasn't.
I'll give Frozen a chance. From the number of happy travelers I've seen leaving these pavilions, 3 Amigos didn't ruin the River of Time and Nemo didn't ruin the Living Seas, so Frozen will give its fans a reason to go to Norway and Epcot will be just fine.

I think the exact opposite of this. I would venture to say the happy people you see leaving Mexico spent more time in the tequila cave than on the ride.

And again, no "we" won't....

I hope you're right, but a few days ago you said...

All rumors here....please close this forum. It isn't going to happen. Disney will not change Maelstrom.

So forgive me if I don't have much faith in your powers of clairvoyance.

Hoping you are right, but the first two (swapping out a handful of WS street entertainment and Frozen replacing Maelstrom) are not filling me with confidence.

So you have seen the plans for the Frozen update and what is coming after it to EPCOT? Can you give us more details or are you not allowed to reveal it?

 

[marni1971]

We?

In what capacity do you represent the company?

If you do, you will also know what a(nother) idiotic knee jerk reaction this is.

I get it. There are a lot of people who feel the way you do, but what I read on these forums doesn't always match what I see in the parks.
