RnRc Retheme?

[WondersOfLife]

Aerosmith is a rock band...that first made it big in the late 1970s. Is there a single human in the US that was shocked by the story that came out about Steven Tyler?

Cool... that doesn’t justify the actions though lol

Oh, the actions were more than wrong, I didn't say they weren't. But anyone who's ever heard any stories at all about what happened in the music world away from the eyes of fans and authorities wouldn't be the least bit surprised by the story. Really the only thing that surprised me was that she waited so long to tell it.

I've heard quite a few stories about Liv and her teenaged exploits, having grown up in the town where Tyler owns a house that he stays in very frequently.

That’s always the only surprising part.

But since it has been leaked, it’s time to move on.

The problem is that no matter what band(s) they use, there's bound to be a scandal at one time or another.

Two words... Weird Al...

If the Guitar refurb says anything, it’s that if the ride is to get rethemed, it’ll probably stick with Rock n Roll, but just with a different band.

Just go ahead and retheme it to one of the many fictional Disney rock bands. My preference would be "love Handel" from Phineas and Ferb.

I’ve said to friends when visiting that I would LOVE a retheme to Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem!

Move Muppet Courtyard over there... Electric Mayhem coaster, re-theme the Racing Academy to a brand new Muppet Vision 3D.

I like the Muppet idea. Only concern would be, for how much longer will they be relevant? They have a strong fan base and don't seem to be dropping completely off anytime soon. But again, for how long? Aerosmith has run its course. There are still fans no doubt, but it needs to go for many reasons, most obviously the recent Tyler controversy.

What about the fictitious band played by The Dillards known as "The Darlins' who appeared on the Andy Griffith show for a couple episodes? A wholesome, non-controversial group from a family-friendly TV show known globally.

Disney owns the Muppets IP, so how long will they be around? Well, forever. That's one of the reasons Henson Productions sold them to Disney: permanency. The same for Lucas and Star Wars.

The good thing about a roller coaster is the fact that relevance doesn’t matter. If it’s a thrill ride people will come.

I seriously doubt The Twilight Zone is hardly relevant these days with a majority of the modern audience.... or Song of the South. Or Tron.

The issue comes more with the track’s service life, IMO, not with what the theme will be. With the track being 20+ years old already, how much longer does it have? And will Disney want to do what Universal did with Hulk, and completely retrack it, or will they just replace it with something else?

 

[Disstevefan1]

Heard more rumblings on various fanboi sites that Aerosmith is on its way out again. Did a quick search on here, didn't see anything new/relevant, wanted to see if anyone's heard anything new.

Please delete or reroute if it's hiding somewhere else being talked about. thx.

I don't care if there is a retheme as long as the coaster remains as it is and it's not shut down for multiple years to do what is just a re skin.

If Uni can re-track both huh and the mummy disney should be able to re-track rockin. There’s no need to not re-track it, as the coaster is certainly enjoyable.

Exactly. It’s more of if the current heads are actually willing to spend the money to do so, because the track has become increasingly rough over the past few years.

 

[Epcot82Guy]

Service life on this one is a bit unique. It's indoors (greatly extends life), but it also runs 365 (decreases it). I'm mostly worried about the launch and brake mechanisms - which can be more easily replaced.

I dont see why they wouldn’t re-track it, since the attraction is confirmed a successful thrill. It would cost them more money to make a new E ticket from scratch

And why in God's name would Kermit and Piggy not be the real stars of Muppets Haunted Mansion? Missed opportunity! What were they thinking?
