In the real world, people do not care one way or the other about the fate of an amusement park ride enough to risk getting fired and/or going to jail for. The ride could be in perfect, pristine condition and the retheme would still happen.
Oh my god, stooooooop with the nonsense. You are delusional if you honestly think there’s a chance this is getting cancelled because baldy is leaving.
The decision to re-theme Splash Mountain reportedly came directly from Iger. So I'd wager a "no"
Iger wanted more IP, not necessarily more Jungle Cruise or Splash-esque remakes.
Those are decisions that would have been made eventually anyway, no matter who was in charge. This is 2022. If Walt had lived long enough to witness how offensive those elements had become with time, he would have ordered the changes himself.
Allow me to rephrase that, I don't think any of the rides remaining have as many problematic (in the company's eyes) elements as Splash or Jungle Cruise. Maybe Peter Pan but that sells merch so they'd keep the PP theme probably
I had similar thoughts when I first read it. Maybe something different is happening with ours? It’s possible that Orlando’s and Anaheim’s will have different opening dates. Wouldn’t be surprised if that actually happens. I just remembered that we’re getting an eatery, too. I doubt that has anything to do with it, though. Not sure what’s going on. I assume it won’t close that much long after MK’s.
