What I think...as of today...for now...

[_Scar]

So Lee, will Snow White be opening along with Ariel and Belle or is it phase 1.5/2?

And will Snow White be the focus at all or will just the Dwarfs take the stage? Evil Queen Hag?

Yes. I'm led to belive it will open at the same time.

Absolutely no idea. I haven't seen any art, nor have I heard a detailed description of the ride.

One thing I should mention...
One of my sources has indicated that I should use the term "mine car ride" over "coaster." The word coaster may be conjuring up ideas for the ride that aren't totally correct. This isn't going to be BTMRR or Everest or Matterhorn. Smaller, tamer, low height requirement (if any) and quite kid friendly.

No. You don't. They have barely gone vertical and aren't anywhere near a roof.

One of the things I noticed watching the LM constructin at DCA is that the roof goes on shortly after the last crossbeams in any particular section. In other words, all of the vertical beams were not in place before the steel roofs were set but when that section is complete.


It's the same piece of formed rebar that has been laying there in almost every photo over the wall we've seen. It's awaiting use somewhere, along with all the other materials being stored there on the former site of the chateau.

No, I'm pretty sure it is growing. Perhaps it's elves playing pranks by the light of the moon.

So, it's safe to say no drop? :lookaroun

How will they have a story with just the Dwarfs and the speed of a dark ride at times? Or will it sorta be like tour where Dopey does funny things? lol - not a specific question for you Lee, but in general

I'm in a state of wonder and confusion when it comes to this ride :lol:

Ok this concerns me.

Now I have the image in my mind of one of those awful kiddie coasters that are just one oval circuit with a few camel humps. Normally with a worm themed coaster car.

I'm hoping this isn't the case...but that's what instantly came to mind.

Sounds just like SWSA. :lol:

So why should we be excited by this being added to the expansion if its just for kids. You said it would have broad appeal but this doesnt fit that at all.

I even said I was trying to save some of you from disappointment.

Imagine how Grizz feels.



Oh and you are right Lee. I'm seeing the building behind Toontown. Sorry.

Mine car rides are still, in general, thrill rides. I'd think this ride would be a good mix between Barnstormer and SWSA with quite a boyish theme.

It will probably be like a less thrilling, endangering PW with a dark ride in the mix :lol:

Not safe to say.
Make no assumptions, we just don't have enough information.

:ROFLOL:
No...it will not have anything at all in common with a Wacky Worm.

It's not just for kids. It will have a very broad appeal, that's why it's back in the plan.
I just don't want anyone working under the assumption that a major coaster is being dropped into the FLE, 'cause that isn't the case as far as I can tell.
Think "mine car ride." Zippy. Fun. Tells a story. Something that teens and adults will get a kick out of, and give the kiddies somthing to look forward to riding. (I may be totally off, but in my mind I keep imagining something akin to Blazing Fury at Dollywood, but on a much smaller scale.)

I'm thinking more like the Dr Seuss ride at IoA with a dwarf theme.

Well David S. should be happy then... but probably not.

Yeah I know I was overracting (like THAT isn't uncommon around here) but oddly it did pop into my head. I trust you though Lee...so don't let me down!

I'm still loving your idea that it's akin to Blazing Fury!

 

[_Scar]

Dr. Suess with a ton more thrill (I don't think it has much now) and a lot less psinning since... mine cars don't spin. :lol:

It's only at Disney World where a 1937 movie is still a classic that everyone in the family can still enjoy! :sohappy:

I hope they make this another MK mountain somehow!

 

[jt04]

They do if they go off the tracks. AKA trackless. Maybe a better comparisson is Pooh at DL. I think we might be getting something similar but dwarf themed. And couldn't there be a "mine" under Cindy's Chateau? Hmmmm. I'm a genius but not evil like some. :lol:

See above.

 

[WDWGoof07]

I think the Circus land will be richly themed, and I agree with the poster who said she can't wait to see it at night.:animwink:

Sorry about that.

Now why would Prince Charming and Cinderella be some dumb as to build their chateau on such a terrible foundation? :lol:

It's a cool idea that would have both attractions but I can imagine the story behind that one would be awesomely hilarious!

 

[Space Mountain]

How is it better? A "C" ticket kiddie coaster in a warehouse with some blacklight cardboard cutouts instead of one of the most amazingly themed "lands" WDI has ever conceptualized?! No, not better in any way.

Revenge of the Mummy at Universal?

Per Lee's request, can we keep this thread to FACTS only and leave the speculation/opinions out? This thread is already at 23 pages long in just 1 day, and it's a challenge to scroll through to find the facts.

There are many FLE threads out there for some of these debates. Just keep them out of this one.

Again, Lee started this thread as a place to share new information. Not debate it.

We're 22 pages past that point. I doubt even Lee believed that request was going to be honored.
