Now, Disneyland Resort official say it’s slated to open in April as Jessie’s Critter Carousel, where visitors can ride a rattlesnake, a skunk, a raccoon and other gnarly creatures.<<

I once got bit by a snake (not a rattler), so it's safe to say I won't be going anywhere near this.

Was there actually any work visually done to the carrousel before last November?

I don't think so. I think Disney had just put up the decorative walls.

Let's see, the Fiscal Year Starts October 1st, so looks like they wanted the project in Phase II of PP.... Guess they spent way too much money in Phase I

Well they did waste their money on 50lbs of glitter. That was a really stupid idea.

Yikes, if what we got was them spending too much money, I'd hate to see what itd look like at budget

Phase 3 of Pixar Pier will be bringing back Dinosaur Jack’s Sunglass Shack and renaming it Dinosaur Arlo’s Sunglass Shack, just in time for The Good Dinosaur 2: What Killed The Dinosaurs? The Ice Age (6)!

What about the Dinosaur sequel! One of the best Disney movies ever made!

 

[Magic Feather]

Can we appreciate that the Incredicoaster took less time than this carousel reskin. Seriously.

Man, talk about a Disney film that's basically forgotten.

they wanted the budget to be spread over multiple fiscal years so that it comes out cheaper

gotta think like an accountaneer instead of an imagineer

 

[JD2000]

Disney California Adventure Park really loves it's generic flat rides where you go around in circles.

 

[Kram Sacul]

This is as exciting as when the Incredicoaster opened.

 

[D.Silentu]

I think the part I'm looking forward to least is that the area will now be saturated with western music, about as incongruent to a seaside pier as I can imagine.

too bad they couldn't make those walls they are adding a bit higher to block the ugly grease stained track supports. Maybe i should wait till they are done because those new walls might be worse than the grease stained tracks.


Seriously though, i wonder what those forms are for? They don't look like anything on the artwork
