This sounds like an even farther departure than Batuu was. Atleast Batuu's markets feel like they were ripped from Phantom Menace & parts of Rise/Falcon are ripped straight from the movies.
I can’t wait for people to ask how this is connected to PATF and they’re told, “this isn’t for you.”
I'm glad to see visible construction progress so quickly.
If the development budget doesn't get slashed then the maintenance budget will after the honeymoon phase is over and it's just another attraction. That's how modern Disney works.
Exactly. If they’re gonna do it, do it! Disneyland is wasting precious crappy weather months (for CA) not doing this now.
It will. But it has a bit more insulation than a project typically would during these times.
I’m sure he’s well-connected within the company and has knowledge of boardroom (and behind-closed-doors…) conversation…
It also provides minority representation for Native Americans (and doesn't come with the same sort of baggage Pocahontas does, or even PATF).The more I think about it…the new ride should have been Brother Bear.
Talking animals
Actual mountains and waterfall scenes
Takes place in the North American frontier, thus keeping with the “Frontierland” theme.
Added bonus “Brer” is just the southern dialect of “Brother”. So there was already “Brother Bear” in there from the get go.
They're cooking her in a beginet! Then they're gonna cook me! Oh my Goooooddddddddd!!!!!!
Yeah but who cares about Brother Bear now?Brother Bear had a box office take of $250M, against a $46M budget.
Gross profit of $204M.
For comparison, PatF’s take was $271M with a $105M budget.
Gross profit? $166M.
But sadly, that’s not what counts anymore.
