News Pirates of the Caribbean closing for refurbishment in February for new auction scene

[Seabasealpha1]

Attractions magazine posted a clip this morning on Facebook. Count me out of the fan club for the new scene...

It's awful bad luck to have a woman on board... except at WDW.

Where is a video?

lol at this point where any disney annoucement scares me, Not to bad is pretty great.

"Not to bad", The mantra of the new age customer that Disney has created through mediocre refurbs and cupcakes

Sure, it looks good, in as much as the animatronics match.
But it's pointless now.
Where's the punchline?
And they're auctioning off the things they stole to other pirates?

So....The auction for the redhead is over....What else could they go for? We wants the..........Goat?

It's interesting to point out that there was an action figure released several years ago of her. And she had carried a pistol and a long rifle with he...So in a way they must have saw that and thought...Hey! Why not change her to that!

I like it!

Actually that would make a lot of sense. I'll reserve judgement til we hear the scene and what the dialog is. I'm not going to try to judge off a single still image.

I'm glad they didn't water it down further, although holding an auction at night during a raid doesn't make any sense. You normally want to sell your loot at a different port and give each pirate their cut then. IANAP.

I'm furious mostly at the removal of Paul Frees

Wonder how the bloggers liked getting evaced. The ride isn’t ready to open yet. Like all WDW projects it is behind schedule.

but it beats whining incessively about the "good ole days".

 

[larryz]

There's no joke any more. It's just ... nothing. There's nothing of interest in that scene (unless you're into sassy robots)...

 

[KBLovedDisney]

Got to say, just by seeing the picture alone of the refurbishment, it honestly doesn't look that bad. And they left my favorite pirate guy in there! Just anxious to hear the new audio of that section.

I take this back. Just saw the video.

It sucks.

Weigh anchor you swabbies...what do I offer for these hearty hens? Whomever is doing this voice just sounds awful...They could have got Corey Burton back to at least do his version of the voice since he re-recorded audio for the heavy pirate that sits with the map....

You know...now that I think about it....This wasn't the first female pirate they were dealing with...

Nope, they’re equally ineffective.

Agreed it just feels like a lost show scene now... Bland

Ughgghhhh I hate that so much
