Do you still feel like the FL expansion is missing something?

I don't mind the mountains but I am leaning a bit more towards an Indy ride. I mean mountains are great, but you don't necessarily need a "mountain" to make something thrilling. I love mountains though. They are awesome. Expedition: Everest FTW.

No thank you on Raging Spirits.

Indy for Adventureland. I'd rather a new ride not be a mountain. There's enough mountains as is.

There are only 3 and mountains are always very top notch. Why wouldn't you want one? :confused:

Indy may be a great ride at DL, but I'd rather have Up or a volcano ride. Something original.

To rephrase the old Imagineering motto, "Why does it have to be a mountain?"

Almost all of Disney's big rides are centered around mountains. Change it up. Bring in something fresh, ala Indy's temple.

A mountain just wouldn't mesh well with the current feel of Aland.

You don't feel like you're just copying and pasting?

Mountains are supposed to represent the "big" attractions and be Imagineering masterpieces. When I was in ALand, it all sorta felt like a mish mash of everything... but isn't that what it's supposed to be? Isn't the land supposed to represent adventure itself rather than a set period in time or place?

Supposed to? Where's the written rule on that one?I guess you should have told the guys who worked on Tower of Terror that.

Sure, the mountains are great. I love them, but to me it seems so common place at this point.I want to see some new ground broken, not WDI's same old, same old.

Imagineering has enough creative talent to break free of the mountain mold, and I would want them to show that to me.

No, it's not really supposed to be like that. The Aladdin spinner made it like that.

Since when does Pirates belong next to Tiki Room/Jungle Cruise?


And why do you want WDI to stay away from the "same old, same old" mountains when you want a copy of IJA in MK?

Pirates is in it's own sub-land. It's not located next to Jungle Cruise, you are transported to the Caribbean when you pass the threshhold. Much like the new Fantasyland.

Never said I wanted a copy. I just want an Indy attraction.

But I would much rather see an Indy copy than Raging Spirits.

Subland? Really?

Well then why couldn't Aladdin's area be considered a subland? Pirates area isn't even very large.

And I don't think you realize how big Caribbean Plaza is. If Pirata y Perrico was open more, you'd see how much room there is in that restaurant, and how much life it brings to the area.

Caribbean Plaza also has it's own stage for shows, a shop, etc.
