Exactly. And it gives them creative freedom in the reboot movie also. The tree doesn't have to be a literally telling of either one.View attachment 678376
There isn't a teenage daughter in the SFR movie. Making it inspired by SFR instead of based on it allows them these kind of freedoms. They can add and remove things as they wish without people saying, "That wasn't in the movie!"
I must think differently than everyone else, because I didn't consider that it was part of the name, but more like a footnote on the sign. Kind of like "Presented by Dole".My only quibble with the name (and it IS a quibble, not a full complaint) is, once again, we have a name that is a mile long with that "inspired by" subtitle. Why not just call it Adventureland Treehouse and be done with it? Is WDI paying their naming staff by the letter?
Don't they know we are all just going to call it "the treehouse" anyway? Again, just a quibble. Overall, this is a great announcement.
Sounds like modern Disney again taking things too seriously. Just call it Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse. They take things so seriously these days. Who cares if its not the same as a 60 year old movie.View attachment 678376

Themed entertainment is storytelling with built space.WDI forgets they create themed entertainment and now think they are "storytellers".
But it’s not Swiss Family Robinson, therefore naming it as such is inappropriate.Sounds like modern Disney again taking things too seriously. Just call it Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse. They take things so seriously these days. Who cares if its not the same as a 60 year old movie.
Just like no one cared that Galaxy's Edge Timeline was suddenly "broken".

New Orleans Square isn't New Orleans either but it doesnt have some weird name like "Ralphie's Cajun Street Inspired by New Orleans". I feel it would if modern WDI made it. Just like Star Wars Land is called "Galaxy's Edge" "Batuu" and "Black Spire Outpost". And also the weird subtitles added to so many ride names now.But it’s not Swiss Family Robinson, therefore naming it as such is inappropriate.
New Orleans Square emulates the real New Orleans. Adventureland Treehouse will not emulate the same treehouse from SFR. That’s the difference. It’s loosely inspired by it. There seems to be some S.E.A. references as well going into this project. If this was actually a direct copy of what’s in the film, they would have more than likely called it “Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse.” However, it’s not. As pointed out already, there is no teenage daughter in the film, and the family didn’t build their home on an island called “Jungle River.” This is a new family they’ve made up for this attraction.New Orleans Square isn't New Orleans either but it doesnt have some weird name like "Ralphie's Cajun Street Inspired by New Orleans".

Sometimes simple is better. I think guests understand its a themepark and anyone who takes it seriously enough to be mad at it not being "the real swiss family robinson" likely is never going to be pleased anyways. Just give things normal names.
It all started with "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire: Play It!".
Indeed. This could include references to future SEA projects, Jungle Cruise 2, SFR D+ series, etc...New Orleans Square emulates the real New Orleans.

It is an IP attraction, just an old IP that also happens to be getting a new show.I know we ask for non-IP attractions but this seems... a little boring?
What would expect from a treehouse walkthrough attraction?I know we ask for non-IP attractions but this seems... a little boring?
Fair, I guess instead of IP I should have said "based on a movie." Unless this is?It is an IP attraction, just an old IP that also happens to be getting a new show.

Whatever happened to the HatBoxGhost guy? You know, the ramp guy?
As did I.I had him on ignore for a while now, has he stopped posting?
A large number of people just wound up call him out as a troll for declaring every Disney movie a flop, even the ones that made hundreds of millions of dollar (which is pretty much a perfect example of trolling).Whatever happened to the HatBoxGhost guy? You know, the ramp guy?
