Will Disney ever create large scale AAs? I can't be alone in hoping that the parks (both Disney and Universal) will go back to the drawing board and invest in technologically advanced AAs.
I'm sure most of you have seen this, but if you haven't I suggest looking at the concept art for Expedition Everest. From what I gather, it looks as if they wanted the attraction to be similar to Kongfrontation. Check out the size of what the Yeti was supposed to be:
It looks incredible! I think it was heavily scaled back, to make it less scary and more "Disney." I just think that the company makes so much more financially that they could easily create high thrill attractions with large animatronics. Universal opened with rides like Kongfrontation, which contained the largest animatronic in the world. Jaws opened shortly after. USH was already working on the Jurassic Park while the movie was in production in 1993 (if you haven't seen the documentary of the ride, I highly suggest it). The attractions mentioned above are some of the best, ever. Can you imagine Expedition Everest similar to the original concept art? Unfortunately, I don't see Disney ever making another high thrill ride, but we can all hope!
