New Tomorrowland Rock Paint Job

[Donaldfan1934]

There has been zero new original attractions in the us during Iger's reign. It's not gonna start now.

False. There was Big Grizzly Mountain and Mystic Manor at HKDL and Roaring Rapids at SDL. I may be forgetting one or two, but your point still remains. IP attractions under Iger greatly have greatly outnumbered original ideas so its unlikely Tomorrowland will see any different.

He did specifically say "in the us"...

Oh, sorry. It wasn't capitalized so I missed it.

Quoted for truth.

Yes, perhaps they can replace Carousel of Progress with a Great Moments with Ayn Rand show!
I can see her now sitting in that chair in her thick Russian accent telling the audience "You can make others happy when and if those others mean something to you selfishly..."

All demanded by those park's owners, not chosen by Disney.

Yeah, and they were turned off most of the time, because people complained about getting wet from them when there was even the slightest breeze.

I think part of that problem was by design. They had multiple water jets spraying downward. I think that, if they had the water trickling down like a waterfall, it would have worked far better. Wouldn't have made a big visual impact, but still would have worked better.

i think that if people had substance and didn't whine nobody would care.....people wear ponchos on water rides still.

I do on Kali, but that's because I refuse to spend my day soaked through my clothes for the three minutes of fun it provides. Wouldn't even ride it if it weren't for my kids!

Getting wet by a cool looking waterfall? That would be fine with me!

kali is nothing....try popeyes barges down the street. i dare ya to ride that with no poncho...its not a "get wet ride" its a look like you just walked into the ocean ride.

Actually in this day and age I don't think it would have closed from some blowinf mist from the waterfall...it would have been a nice way to cool down.. and it didn't spray THAT much water... The multiple downward jets in the towers looked phenomenal... the gull-wing water walls probably never performed as they wanted them to...especially when you look at the concept art... This could be done better with todays technology... Just look at the undulating water walls at the Aria casino in Vegas... They could do this the same way now... and it would be even more spectacular than they had dreamed.

Popeye and Bluto's is relentless. It's an awesome ride.

Last time I went on I was already completely soaked at the first possible chance. Best raft ride ever.

Flip flops and alt clothes are mandatory

So @marni1971 , if Stitch is the character being evacuated, will the replacement still utilize the stadium-style seating? Or will the building be gutted entirely? I would assume it is staying the same, but I'm just asking to be safe.

Well there's a non sequitur.

It could be heavily remodelled but keeping the same guest flow layout.

Will it be alien themed or something completely different?

A Guardians overlay would be so ideal. Put in Groot or Rocket Raccoon in place of the other animatronics. And you could still keep with the Mission: Breakout crap.

No, I think Ayn Randian philosophy was being pretty directly referenced. I don't know, perhaps you don't realise that's who the people you're all listening to are reading.
