Akershus in Norway has been a princess character meal for a long time now
That's the only restaurant in Norway.We don't have girls and we don't eat in Norway. No one wanted a character meal thus far.
Epcot was not supposed to be a theme park to begin with...
If you go to the parks, all you see is little girls dressed as Elsa. You hardly see any other princess represented anymore, thats a huge factual statement. The Norway pavilion had its day, it used to be nice, but it was never great, a Frozen pavilion has potential to be great. And it will.
Jimmy Thick- If you really want culture, go to Norway, not a theme park pavilion.
Personally, I feel the ride had to go. It was dated and the mold in the attraction was seriously getting out of control. Frozen is huge, absolutely huge, it needs a permanent spot somewhere and I feel this makes sense. The Norway pavilion is really no big loss, I look forward to what Disney conjures up for Frozen.
Jimmy Thick- The Norway pavilion, just Let It Go...
Doubtful and we need to put out the typical Jim hill disclaimer on that oneI heard Len Testa and Jim Hill talk about the Akershus restaurant being converted into an experience more along the lines of BoG at some future date. To me, that would mean converting it into a structure both inside and outside that more resembles the castle in the Frozen film. It will be interesting to see if that pans out or not.

I do to but Jim just reports everything he hears and a lot of times they aren't true. I will say Jim is very good at the history aspect.I actually enjoy Len and Jim's podcasts. I think that Jim seems like a real decent chap and some of the history he goes over in his podcasts with Len is really good.
So do we worry about mold as well for Splash Mountain and many more?
I agree. They should have put it in the Magic Kingdom or in Hollywood studios.
Frozen is huge, absolutely huge, it needs a permanent spot somewhere and I feel this makes sense. The Norway pavilion is really no big loss...
So I would assume that this is the same feeling for the boat ride in mexico?
My family loved it also and will miss it. I agree with others, Frozen doesn't belong in WS.
Fantasyland is where it should be. Arrendale is based on Scandinavian culture not Norway specifically. Meet and greets are going to happen but they don't take over an entire pavilion like frozen is. Now for avatar that does belong in AK.Then where does it belong? Norway stopped funding the pavilion years ago and there are already four or five other countries that have character M&G's. Arendelle is based on Norway and the theming is already there. I understand if you don't like the movie, but why should Belle meet in the France pavilion, Alice meet in the UK pavilion, Mulan meet in the China pavilion, Aladdin and Jasmine meet in Morocco, etc.? There is even a bear M&G that no one has ever really heard about. I don't get the similar argument that Avatar doesn't belong in AK....
