-I'm excited to see the new Kiera Knightly AA. I wonder how they're going to add her into the story.
-The HKDL POTC ride sounds really neat. I like the whole pirate area with some smaller pirate rides. The pirate themed Fantasmic sounds interesting...
The pirate Haunted Mansion also seems interesting. But I kind of think this is pirate overkill. I mean, I know it's a pirate themed land, but some of it seems a little bit over the top. Who know, I guess we'll have to wait and see when it opens.
-The Pirates Lair at Tom Sawyer's Island is now a go...I'm not going to say much until we get some drawings or pics of the new stuff. Since they are behind on schedule on it, I hope they don't rush through it and quickly finish it up to get it to open around the premiere time.
-I havn't been able to make it to DL to see both Rockin' rides, but I know they aren't getting good feedback. I still want to check them out though.
-I really don't want the castle to be painted again. I like the way it is right now, and I don't want it going back to the faded look it had before the 50th.
-I'm excited about all the new decorations coming in for Halloween and Christmas. It looked amazing at those times this past year!
-I'm really excited about the castle decorations for Christmas! The snow and icicles would be a great touch and make it look amazing!
-One last thing...there's plans for a forth POTC movie??

So what do y'all think?

Al Lutz's article is confusing.

First he says that Disneyland will continue to update their version of PotC, unlike Disneyland, but then he says that Disneyland will not do the Keira Knightley animatronic, and spend practically all their efforts on the Tom Sawyer Island project.

He talks as if the Tom Sawyer Island project is confirmed, yet what he claims that Disneyland plans to do seems very unlikely to be done in May in such a short timeframe.

The Rockin' rides seem cool to me. Hopefully I can get to Disneyland before they stop it.

And there is no official plan for a Pirates 4 movie. It's all talk. They still need to concentrate on finishing the 3rd film, and signing all the actors to new contracts. Disney has said that they would like to do another one, and Johnny Depp has expresses interest, but nothing is set in stone. (It is really in pre-pre-pre-production.)
