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

[Spash007]

I agree there are a lot of M&Gs in MK, but they mostly focus on the younger, especially young girls, demographic. I would prefer an extra attraction as well, but I think there could be a market for a Wreck it Ralph type M&G. Heck, even the Incredibles depending on how this summer plays out. (Granted I have an issue with Tomorrowland somehow becoming synonymous with superheroes, but that's beside the point and would lead to a greater discussion of what in the world is Disney trying to define Tomorrowland as)

I don’t know why they just dont update SGE to cater for several really well done and interesting meet and greets. They could to an interactive Wall-E one like with BB8.

Because they trashed a Fantasyland attraction in the same way? Because they don’t need more meet n gropes? Because the park needs more capacity?

 

[Indy_UK]

Even if they took up the shop there too, is a dark ride of that size going to be capable of much capacity?

Someone posted the size a while back. Don’t remember the square feet or acreage off the top of my head, but it’s a bigger area than I realized when you throw in both theaters, large pre-show rooms, and gift shop space.

Found it. 27,000 sq ft. Twice the size of PP and bigger than Buzz.

The space isn’t as flexible as you think. There’s numerous structural supports and more than thin walls between the show area and the stores.

MK is now the only park without a simulator. Maybe build one at MK?

Regardless if a dark ride would or wouldn’t fit there, a ride’s size has no connection to a ride’s capacity.

NOOOO! Don't encourage more simulators!

The SGE space is bigger than PP, but then again, so are most kiosks.

SGE is not bigger than Buzz unless you take over the attached shops, which may be problematic.

The MK doesn't have a dry play space, so, turn it into that where families can cool off while kids let off steam. You can do a lot of cool, interactive futuro-techno stuff with light-up walls and floors. Put in a bar overlooking the play space with a glass wall to dampen the shrieking.

Then build a nice people-eating omnimover in the expansion pad south of Space Mountain. How about a clone of TSM, but with four tracks and a different IP? Once that shooter's in place, then Buzz can be overhauled into something else.

I got no issue with that idea.

Speaking of which can that please disappear and can they actually build a quality dark ride in that space.

There was no real reason to get rid of Snow White's Scary Adventures-other than redundancy, I suppose. But I love old Pretzel-Style rides, and was sad to see that one go.

A simple dark ride would be a more than welcome addition in my mind.

That’s a reason to retheme Snow White to another fairy tale, not a reason to trash the whole thing.

We could have used a simple Rapunzel dark ride in that space, going through her forest and ending in the lanterns scene

Oh, absolutely. Sleeping Beauty would also have worked. Or give us a clone of Pinocchio’s Daring Journey, or bring back Toad. Anything other than gutting it for Meet and Greet #3327B.

They were insistent upon having multiple princess meet and greets in the Fantasyland expansion...after they axed the super elaborate ones for 7 Dwarfs, they just HAD to put them elsewhere...

I for one would LOVE a new dark ride replacing that waste of space. If they must have the meet and greet spaces, build one on top of the Tangled Toilets or bulldoze more of the speedway for an additional Fantasyland expansion.

If they got rid of the laugh floor attraction could it be possible to take up both stitch’s great escape and the laugh floor and create a bigger attraction with that?

 

[MaximumEd]

They are on opposite sides of the walkway. Ain’t gonna work.

RIP the terror theater. Now we wait for something better than stitch.
Still want alien encounter back or at least something x-s related.

 

[Rk2k5]

In my opinion I think that they are going to either do something with Wall-E, Lilo and Stitch, or maybe even go back to the old plans with wreck it Ralph depending on how well it does in theaters.
