News Disneyland to give Tarzan’s Treehouse a new theme

[CaptinEO]

Isn't there a SEA show being made?

Anything better than tied to Enchanto or lousy IP. I’m sorry.

 

[Phroobar]

Whatever they say at D23, you can expect it to be "Magical!" and "Reimagined for the 21st century!".

I like the idea of SEA, but this is straight up over kill.

So... screens :x

Honestly, I'm sure it's a nonsensical rumor, but I would totally take a SEAs Treehouse.

2022 WDC could do so much worse.

Despite having grown up with the SFR treehouse, I actually grew quite fond of the Tarzan version after moving out here to SoCal. Would’ve been better with AAs instead of those motionless figurines, but otherwise I think it fit Disneyland’s Adventureland perfectly. I’m okay with a new theme but if I’m being honest, I’ll miss Tarzan.

I’ll be shocked if this SEA rumor is true.

While it's better than nothing, I will not miss Tarzan's Treehouse and will shed no tears if it is replaced by anything that fits at all within the existing area.

Swiss Family Treehouse was (is) far superior.

The need for static figurines always baffled me as the interactive elements of the treehouse, such as the mirror and the slide projector, were enough on their own.

I respect this, and agree SFR is superior.

I suspect I could look past Tarzan’s shortcomings because there’s something almost magical about the act of climbing the artificial tree/treehouse in the midst of a sequence of largely passive attraction experiences during a day at Disneyland. It’s the reason why I’m (mostly) okay with SEA or Encanto replacing Tarzan; I think as long as the brilliantly-conceived treehouse itself remains, almost any thematic overlay (within reason) will be enjoyable.

Ya know what? That would be really neat, yes stupid its locked behind a paywall and interactivity should be free, but could increase foot traffic to the treehouse. Could be something both coasts split the costs on as well.

Looks like they're adding air conditioning.

That's for the Imagineers working onsite. No one else would need it.

I'm saddened by the fact I have to explain that this was a joke given it's an outdoor attraction. I don't even know if what I circled is even an A/C.

So why is this still The Project We Don't Admit Is Happening?

Their D23 Expo Parks Panel was long-winded and underwhelming, even a bit boring, with little actual news.

They couldn't have said what the new Treehouse theme is going to be and show some art? That's weird.

Especially given it has been down for just over an entire year now.

They're still trying to remove the squatters.

It almost smacks of “We’re about to fire the guy who thinks he’s still in charge of these DL projects,” or that sort of thing.

Like 5 years or so ago when Josh Trank was scheduled to talk about his Boba Fett movie at the Star Wars Celebration JUST after his Fantastic Four movie bombed. He said he couldn’t make it because he was sick. A week later we hear his movie was canceled.
