How about no more movie previews in Tomorrowland? Can we stop this, please?

Disney's gotta pick up their game for GRR



I agree but wonder how much they can do with the current layout. It’s not something I ride very often so I’m not 100% if this is possible but that area right before the first cave (or one of the caves) with the campsite(?) show scene could be covered with rock work thereby extending the existing cave where they could put a huge standing, roaring Grizzly AA show scene with some sound effects. Other than that a Moose AA and deer etc couldn’t hurt.

just add a grizzly AA to one of the caves and it would be better. it really needs a AA. I went on it one time only since I have only been to DCA once in my lifetime, because I would rather be at Disneyland than DCA, but I was very disappointed there was no grizzly AA on the ride when I rode it. I was looking for it the whole time. it is a fun ride, didn't get too wet from what I recall but it needs something a bit more special. an AA would fill that void

Yeah I’d be good with just one impressive Grizzly AA but I’d rather have a more elaborate show scene of course.

I am very excited about Calico River Rapids and wish I could share the plans Garner Holt got.

But I agree that Disney might be outdone on this one, if things work like expected.
It really upsets me they can update BIG FOOT RAPIDS and add a really cool BIG FOOT AA but they could not give Kingdom of the Dinosaurs a much needed update with new AA's but instead let it rot for years before taking it out and replacing it with a horrible screen shooting dark ride. yuck!! I want my dinos back!!!

Is Casey Jr. th most underrated attraction at the park? I say yes.
It's the park's greatest overlooked treasure, and one I try to never miss when I'm at DL. I love the fantastic track layout, the soundtrack, the Ringmaster vocals and the way Casey says "I think I can/I thought I could" as he goes up and over the little lift hill.

Years ago some train drivers would let Casey get up a little speed when going down that final descent under the bridge, and when you hit the slight turn at the bottom, you'd get tossed around a bit inside the animal cages. :D

Fun fact: Ever wonder why Casey looks just a little eerie? His eyes are inside of cones, and so seem to follow you wherever you're standing. :D

Finally got around to watching Christopher Robin this week. Helped me remember why people adore Pooh Bear and friends.

As a Disneyland fan, I've come to associate Pooh with the death of a beloved classic and plywood cutouts.

It's too bad the Imagineers didn't use Christopher Robin as an excuse to overhaul the Pooh attraction (keeping with the animated style of course). But I guess it's tough to fix the lousy rides in the park when you're busy swapping out redheads.
