What would you like to see in an Adventure Land overhaul?

Only Disney cartoon creations or original disney ideas should EVER be in Magic Kingdom!!!

I could see tarzan in AL but I'd hate to see the SFR go. What would be cool is a single rider type suspended coaster so you feel like tarzan through the trees.

I NEVER want to see Indy in AL. I'd LOVE to see an Indy ride but only in studios please.

I like JC and POTC the way it is.

I'm ok with aladdin. A genie show would be a cool side item.

Tiki room could be better better if it was more interactive. Maybe use Laugh Floor type technology.

AL could use an E ticket ride. Maybe Tarzan could be that ride.

It is not. When WDI was first working on Indy they wanted to tie the whole area together with the same story line including the rail road. It never came to be how ever.
Actually it is....or it was.
When the JC came out of refurb and Indy opened they were definately tied together. The JC passes right by the Indy queue and temple and for quite a while mentioned Indy in the script. Supposedly the Jungle Navigation Co. was involved in transporting some of the explorers to Indy's camp and his excavation site.
Now...like most other awesome backstories...it has faded into the background.

Theme issues. Swiss Family is too south pacific. My Adventureland is more colonial Africa.

Part of the charm and theming of AL is South Pacific. And POC isn't exactly Colonial Africa.
Ilike the continental Africa theme...for part of it. But what if we take that one step further to have an "Adventure" from each of the 4 corners of the globe!

I would add Matterhorn Mntn.
Turn the Tiki Room into a bar
Have Indiana Jones ride.

If it were MKCP 1985's Adventureland . . . then this post would belong in the imagineering forums :lol:

but anyway. . . I'd like to see Adventureland blend more into Caribbean Plaza and have a Treasure Island - Pirates of the Caribbean area with a full scale pirate ship and an extended version of POTC. The extended scenes could show some of the locales featured in the movie franchise.

The Tiki Room is soooo lame! I'd like to see that building and area re-imagined into an adventurous attraction. To stay true to the classic feel of the Magic Kingdom, I would craft a Jungle Book attraction into that space, featuring Mowgli, Baloo, King Louie, Baghera and Shere Khan.

The Jungle Cruise is iconic, so I'd leave it alone other than to give it the debated upgrade/refurbishment we hear about. Finally, I'd bite the bullet and convert the Swiss Family Treehouse into a Tarzan/Jane themed area with zipline opportunities for Tarzan wannabes.

Too much? :lookaroun

Philosophically, I agree. The Disneylands, and the Magic Kingdoms should be ONLY Disney...However, the superb themeing and logical connectiion that IJA has to AL makes it passable. Same for ST in TL, though that's a bit of a stretch in DL.

IMO

Because they changed things, or just don't tell you, anymore?

I think that the backstory was lost to a large degree during an Adventureland management reorganization back in the late 1990s.
You still pass the Indy queue on the JC, but they don't really make a big deal out of it, if I recall correctly.

Sheesh. So it was just a decision to change the spiel? The skippers could easily bring that back...
