I know this is mostly theoretical and that WDW would never do this as any old attraction would feel outdated. However, I have been wondering how possible it would be for WDW to rebuild an old attraction from start to finish.
Let's say they wanted to rebuild Horizons...I'm not talking about just updating the ride, I'm talking about an exact replication of the original ride with all of the exact same scenes, exact same animatronics (and the exact same clothes or outfits they wore), the exact same everything from the exterior structure to the same orange smell in the orange grove scene.
I guess one thing that they couldn't exactly replicate would be the narration in this case, but they could always use the original tracks. Which I guess brings me to the real point of this question...does WDW keep enough old blueprints, specs, audio tracks and notes that they could completely re-build an old attraction to the exact original specs?
