Guardians threw continuity to the wind harder then any other attraction.
I don’t think it’s a better or even a good fit. It’s too modern and set outside the USA.
Also according to D23 Coco may be beyond Thunder Mountain along with Encanto and checks notes Maleficent and Chernobog.
The repeated references to Frida Kahlo, who died in 1954, are a pretty big clue!
I said land of the Living, we already have a show in Frontierland that features a song from a 1950s TV Show. Inside the rides can be their own thing, besides we have a 1920s era Jungle Cruise coexisting with a 1600s Pirate fort one land over. And in Liberty Square, we have a piano appearing in the revolutionary period when harpsichords were far more popular in the states (and still extremely rare.)
I know. That’s where the repeated references to Frida happen. [ETA: Sorry, I misread your post; I was referring to the Land of the Dead.]
They make convenient, plentiful time travel central to the story (even though it has absolutely no impact on the ride experience whatsoever) which very obviously demolishes the plot of Endgame.
I'm not so sure about the 1600's; could have been but I'd say 1500's is the better guess.
The golden age of piracy was 1650-1730 hence my pick of 1600s.
The costumes of Pirates of the Caribbean situate the ride in the eighteenth century, though some of the women are wearing dresses more suggestive of the nineteenth. The architecture could, of course, date from earlier, but the attraction's exterior belongs stylistically to the 1600s or 1700s.
Well, we can stop wondering: there's a plaque on the building inscribed with its name and supposed date, which is 1643:
When I was a kid we always tried to read Roman numerals, so I'm something of an expert. That one clearly says: "med-kicks-lee-add."Well, we can stop wondering: there's a plaque on the building inscribed with its name and supposed date, which is 1643:
When this was added I don't know; it doesn't look to me like something from 1973, when the ride first opened. It's worth noting that the "A.D." is in the wrong place—it should precede the date, not follow it.
I believe the plaque was added in 2006 during the refurbishment that added Jack Sparrow.Well, we can stop wondering: there's a plaque on the building inscribed with its name and supposed date, which is 1643:
