Rumor Stitch's Great Escape Replacement— Don’t Hold Your Breath

The second. Though far more radical than done so far.

So the circle in the round seats are staying...

WIR would be great for an overlay to the Speedway with sets and theming...but really doesn't fit within the "Tomorrowland" theme...

Here- "For years, people have played video games. Now, using cutting edge technology, we can actually put you IN the video game! No bulky, antiquated VR headsets required!" Bam. Themed.

I'm assuming this will probably have motion based seating like many Despicable Me and many other Uni 3D attractions

Like I said I was pleasantly surprised.

Though I still don't think it fits the land.

It can't be much worse of a fit than GOTG in Epcot or GOTG in TOT. Either way Stitch needed to go one way or another.

Was that your confirmation that Wreck It Ralph is actually the IP being used? I didn't think that was anything more than speculative?

I don't think it's been confirmed anywhere has it?

The way it's generally explained, Frontierland starts at Diamond Horseshoe. This is to represent both the early 1800s and the fact that Missouri was a "gateway to the West". At the other end, you have Big Thunder Mountain, which is both the far southwest and the late 1800s. Everything in between follows that progression, like how Pecos Bill's Tall Tale Inn is in the middle, representing Texas's central position and that it's further along the timeline.

Now, there are exceptions, the biggest being Tom Sawyer Island, which is right across from BTM, but it's clearly representative of 1840's Missouri. The Country Bears, being a show in the style of the medicine show tradition, which went from the late 1800s to the early 1900s, is also a bit anachronistic.

Thanks for that explanation!

Wait, it hasn't?

 

[marni1971]

Wait, it hasn't?

I don't know. Has it?

 

[Mike S]

I don't know. Has it?

I thought it was by @Magic Feather.

 

[Phicinfan]

not that I have seen, and Marni is having fun now

 

[Next Big Thing]

I don't know. Has it?

So not Confirmed, but not a Denial either...

I'm kind of hoping for an original attraction for Stitch's space instead of a re-tread.

 

[Thanks phoenicians]

I thought someone confirmed it but either way the synergy would make sense.

So you would consider WIR to be a re-tread?

 

[rnese]

I don't know. Has it?

Lol...I LOVE it!

 

[Bocabear]

if it is going into the same theater with the same theater set up, then probably yeah... If they majorly overhaul the space and it no longer resembles what it was....then maybe not

For Marni to say that he is pleasantly surprised is a surprise, as he hasn't been happy with very much lately, and he gets to see the plans. It may not fit, but it sounds like it might be a good change. Of course, to me, anything that gets rid of Stitch there is a good thing by me - as long as the new attraction is done right.

Actually I thought he said he was pleasantly surprised with Mickey replacement of GMR. And he was impressed with the scope of some of the Epcot work though I guess that doesn't mean its necessarily good.
