What will be the next change in an attraction?

After Splash Mountain, what's next? Vote in the poll and post specifically what you think will change about the attraction.

They’ll probably just remove the natives from the jungle cruise and replace them with more animals or with something from the upcoming movie.

Everything listed has the potential to offend some misguided SOB who wants 5 minutes of "fame"

Jungle Cruise seems the obvious choice in the current climate.

I hope they don't touch the Hall of Presidents. I only went on it last year for the first time, and I had to re-ride/watch it three times throughout my stay, it was amazing. I'm British, so hold no affiliation to US history, nor are we as interested in politics as our American cousins, but it's such an amazing attraction.

Would be a real shame if they drastically changed it to suit people stupid sensibilities.

Jungle Cruise. The way the natives are featured probably will be the next offensive change the loud voices will call for. Iger may call for them to be dressed in formal tuxedos with bow ties to appease everyone.

The American Adventure will be changed to the 'Merican Adventure. Waaaaay more Andrew Jackson (the rest were losers), 10-times more Confederacy, a musical number about the second amendment (complete with a variety of assault, I mean hunting, rifles), a COVID 19 hoax reenactment (sans masks), a patriotic poem entitled "All Lives Matter" and maybe a minstrel show about Uncle Remus stories . . . all narrated by Trump. Duh.










(Obviously kidding . . . Now who's being a snowflake?)

Tom Sawyer's Island should be on here...

 

[skyphotographer]

All depictions of history must be removed. (my prediction, not my opinion). Down the memory hole they go!

I hope they shut down Hall of Presidents for changes sometime in November.

When they changed PotC I knew this was coming. And Disney is in such a roll over for everything. They pay lip service fans but anything that the mob asks for the upper management will give them. And they could have avoided all of this by ASKING the fans. Make it a contest or something like it ask everyone if they would mind it without making it looklike one employee got an idea and they just caved. There are not enough good restaurants in the magic kingdom I always sort of hoped we could get a Princess Tiana/New Orleans restaurant in that area.

Because it's inevitable that more unneeded changes will happen due to societal pressure from a small minority of the population, and this thread is a way for people to discuss which unneeded change they think will happen next?

 

[Paper straw fan]

They can close Jungle Cruise, pave over it and put in a giant smoking section for all I care. It’s been coasting on its kitsch for decades

So we can identify which park tee shirts to purchase, before they get really, really expensive.

 

[Panchito Pistoles]

If the stockholders don’t draw a line in the sand, the whole question is moot.
Walt Disney World, the Vacation Kingdom could very well become Walt Disney’s Special Journeys World.

WD-SJW.

I was thinking Jungle Cruise because of the movie.
Although Trader Joe is from another era.

Jungle Cruise is the obvious choice to remove the stereotypical depiction of natives, including Trader Sam.

Peter Pan's Flight should also be on the list because of the Native Americans. They've been de-emphasized in the ride itself, but considering how racist the depiction is in the film, any reminder of them that unwise.




I don't think it's about "stupid sensibilities," but the attraction as it is invites political conflict into a theme park setting by spotlighting the current president. Returning to something similar to the pre-1993 version reduces that conflict while retaining the spirit of the attraction.

Better idea: "A Salute to All Presidents (But Mostly Theodore Roosevelt)"

"Suck it, Donald."

 

[Raineman]

One person's "unneeded change" is another person's idea of progress. Stop with the assumptions and grandstanding.

Based on this forum and other reactions online in the last week or two, there are alot more people viewing these changes as unneeded than there are people seeing this as progress. But hey, I'll just keep on looking at the facts, unlike the "progressive" people that are demanding these changes.

 

[ᗩLᘿᑕ ✨ ᗩζᗩᗰ]

For multiple reasons: Jungle Cruise, CBJ and POTC again. Possibly in that order.

Tom Sawyer's Island should be on here...

Why, what have you heard? Interesting changes going on especially now that PatF has entered the game.
