The way the scene should be. Changing it is like spitting in the face of Walt himself and all the original imagineers who created the attraction. God I miss those old boats.

Doesn't it seem strange to the pirates there is boat of weirdly dressed time travelers riding through their auction?

I think the pirates are more concerned about why they can't buy the redhead anymore and why there are suddenly chickens. Also who is this Jack Sparrow guy that changed the narrative of their town plunder.

I wish they went ahead with the night time version of POTC called Pirates of the Scaribbean. In that one the pirates notice the boat load of time traveling tourists and attack their boat. Pirates were suppose to turn into skeletons. It was suppose to be an alternate route through the town. The warehouse is big enough for more scenes. The boat would rejoin the normal route at the jail.

is that a real thing? Never heard about it before

I wonder if I ever got to sit in those old boats. Were they still there in the 80s?

Yes. They came up with the idea after the first Pirates movie. It was part of the idea to have different experiences at night. Kind of like how Space Mountain would become Rock it Mountain at night. They made measurements of the building.

The idea was a skeleton in a crows nest near the cave exit would turn into a pirate when the moon light disappeared. We pass the ship battle and under a bridge to backstage. There is more town and the moon light turns the pirates into skeletons. They notice our boat and attack. They even wanted a skeleton to jump over the boat! We would come out of boat storage right before the jail scene. It didn't happen because it was too expensive for Paul Presler's blood.

Is there any reason they can revisit this idea? It would be great to ride POTC but skip the auction scene.

I agree... when the auction scene got redone, I had the thought that they may as well scrap what's there and start over. It's obvious what Walt's people built isn't what modern Disney want- because it's not tame enough. I'd much rather have an alternate experience designed from the ground up to be immersive- instead of riding through an experience that's a fragmented mess of 67, 97, 2006, and 2018 design.
