Unfortunately, I wouldn't call it a rumor... more and more evidence is supporting this one. The CM in the news clip from Norway said that they had already been told specific months that the attraction would be down for refurbishment and that 70% of the gift shop space was already gone thanks to Frozen (iirc, for a meet and greet, but still...). Add the fact that the church is currently set up to look like a shrine to the movie, and the overlay seems eminent.

Technically, I guess Norway could come back in quickly and make a deal. But it doesn't sound like Disney has any anticipation of that happening.
Thanks! So, sooner or later the overlay will be announced...

The longer we sit here without confirmation, the more hope I get that this was thought better of and shelved in favor of more substantial Frozen additions elsewhere. Perhaps the news stories out of Norway and the fan backlash combined with the success of the Frozen event in DHS have made them give it a second thought? Maybe?

I'm feeling naively optimistic today apparently.

There is something to what you said, I cant say much at this time, but there has been movement with possible new support taking shape, thanks to those news stories on Norwegian television. As for Frozen and Maelstrom I do not know either way at this point,,,but there is a chance Norway somehow in someway might be saved. When able I will elaborate on more. Optimistic here is the key word and for the first time in years there is strong optimism in place coming together.

ps: I really do hope this comes to pass, its the last chance.

The only support from this NOT happening is if Norway funds. I don't see a compromise in the works. I'm not the biggest fan of Maelstrom but I'm certainly against a Frozen overlay here too. Is there not a Change petition (rolling eyes) or some way to voice or support in keeping Norway, Norway?

The word "not" should be in there somewhere.

Thanks for the info. Any rumors on what a new Frozen plan would entail if the Norway overlay is scrapped?

I am one of the few guests who stays to watch the Spirit of Norway film. Although it is quite dated (e.g., 80s fashion, computers), I find it to be very endearing.

Personally, I feel like no matter what happens were going to see Frozen in Maelstrom, but hey you never know
