Claire huxtable and a medical examiner from CSI put you on a time traveling jeep to view a bunch of dinosaurs that never existed... And you think a monkey in a room with possessed trinkets is a stretch?

Look dude, I'm sorry that you are anally obliterated by the fact that Mystic Manor does not fit the theme of Animal Kingdom, but it's not my problem. I'm going to go do something productive now.

Do you think they will make Tron longer if we ask nicely :)

Im' sure this is a "no" but there isn't a chance that they would throw the speedway to Fantasyland is there?

Do you own a company that would shell out a few million a year to sponsor it?

I'm thinking of Bruce Springsteen's Glory Days: "throw that speedball by ya" but not sure how to throw a speedway.

Are you a blogger? Because you seem like a blogger, or at least one of the more animated Disney Twitter folks.

Your logic is sound. But WDW really could use another roller coaster. Even if it is another variation on a rollercoaster in the dark (RnRC fits this description too). WDW doesn't really need another spooky ghost attraction. Plus with Battle Escape and Rat coming, they probably would like to keep the trackless experience as something special.

Having said all of that, it's possible that they could say to themselves, "Na'vi River Journey aside, there's no family friendly dark ride at AK. There's also no trackless ride there. We could tweak Mystic Manor from being a Night at the Museum to something more like Jumanji."

It could work. But I don't think the politics/momentum is going that way.

I am actually of the opinion that WDW doesn't need another coaster, especially in MK where the newest ride at this point is a coaster.

I'm surprised to read this from you. I think "space Mountain being beyond its shelflife" is probably a bit of a stretch.

In it's current iteration it definitely is beyond its shelf life. Its a shell of it's former self- I cant think of another roller coaster in any theme or amusement park domestically that employs more trim brakes.

If anyone thinks SM isn't beyond it's shelf-life, I ask that you ride Disneyland's version and then come back and talk to me. It needs a complete rebuild of the tracks.

Well. This is complete armchair mind you but an intro show scene and outro finale scene would be a quick and dirty solution for extending ride duration. And easy enough to add. I say easy because it would likely be "screens" in a 2.5d set that we would view from the coaster bikes. An idea only but of the many options I think this one would be doable. These editions would not only give the coaster a storyline but it would extend the ride duration by a considerable amount. It's just a matter of Imagineering implementing it.

He's saying Tomorrowland will look and feel very differently than it does now. Not that some other part of the park will change (though it could).

Good point...I was reading the thread backwards.

Would still be great to get a new Frontierland E-ticket and Tron. Balance out both sides of the park.

Either way, I am 100% ok with a clone (or mostly cloned) version of Shanghai Tron. Like Splash, the IP will appeal to those who like the IP. The ride will appeal to those who just want a fun ride. Its add architecture that is fun and futuristic to TL and adds more capacity to MK. I pick apart WDW and TDO's decisions a lot. However, if TRON really happens I will give them credit for doing something good.

In their in ride form? Zero... Sure they're based on real dinosaurs. This also changes nothing about your "because I say so" stance.

The species in the ride did exist. And did look (according to science at the time) generally like those depicted in the attraction.

Your stance is "because I say so" also. You've given no reasoning about why the attraction would fit in DAK.
