Was it the frontier during Reconstruction or when the bears were singing songs from the 1950s?

Rumor Pecos Bills to be rethemed?

So, if I now live in rural Georgia, I'm in the Frontier?
So, the frontier never had 60 foot hills covered in vegetation?
Perhaps it's just a fault in nomenclature. "American Adventure" would have been quite apt.

Prior to the 1860's. They dont teach much history these days do they... insufficient feels.

Lets leave it that the Disney company is quite lacking in historical, geographic, and temporal authenticity to get things to somewhat cohesively mesh together. They pick and choose what to identify and ignore. Such items like ignoring the whole feudal princess paradigm basis ...
Well, you know me. I'm just a Disney hater. So any chance I get to make points against Disney for their lack of thematic cohesion, I take it!!!!

The town in Frontierland is Thunder Mesa, not the land name

Yeah I know that, but they were saying that was the name of the land. Or at least that’s how I interpreted it in context of being a reply to a post talking about keeping the Frontierland name

Wasn’t Walt pretty clear that he never intended any sacred cows? Keep changing, growing, adding, and not looking back too far very often?

A Disney bus driver told me that Pecos Bills will be rebranded to the first Popeye’s Chicken on Disney property.
I agree! It’s about time that Main Street USA was replaced to reflect more marketable concepts that will drive guest spending and better incorporate IP.

Great! How about that theatre idea and we get some fun IP in there?

It's just the name of the fictional town within the land itself..Which was also the intended attraction The Western River Expedition for Frontierland in MK in the spot where TBA and BTM stand...

Real talk, a theater on Main Street that could house a few simulation theaters that rotate out show would be awesome. It’d be a great way to give attractions to characters and franchises that might not be strong enough for a permanent one. Could even use it for fan service by recreating old rides or something.

Well yeah, I know that, but I was talking about the land name. Frontierland, like how Fantasyland is Fantasyland despite being home to many fictional locations.

All for Tiana's, but I still stand by it should be a QS so that those unable to get reservations at CRT or BOG can still enjoy a Princess themed meal in the Castle park.

They could just as easy turn it into something themed to the attached Country Bears. A Hungry Bear 2.0 with BBQ like in California. If that area of Frontierland is going for a Northwest national park vibe like the concept art suggests, it would fit perfectly.

If they want it to be different from California's, they could make it a more bear-themed restaurant than BBQ. Fish, fruit, honey, that sort of stuff. Salmonburgers? Probably basic burgers and chicken too. I think it would be awesome if they brought back the Mile Long Bar, but as an actual bar- you could give each bear their own "usual" that they'd order after a show. Sell novelty drinking mugs shaped like Big Al's Moonshine Jug.
Then if you want Tiana's, you could probably fit it in next to TBA by changing the route of the parade on-road and then getting rid of Pirate's Adventure since, iirc, that's long abandoned.
