Attraction Updates

[BrandonH]

The last time I went to Disneyland was 2009. My assumption was that most attractions would be pretty much the same as they were then, particularly the dark rides. After seeing how they updated Peter Pan's Flight on The Imagineering Story, it seems like they have made some definite improvements to various attractions, especially with the projection technology. Which attractions have received noticeable updates in the last 10 years?

Alice has projections too. They are currently upgrading Snow White as well.

Pirates has had some changes, not projections, but changes. Star Tours usually gets new scenes with the release of the new movies. They added some Disney character to IASW.

I am sure there are more that I cannot remember right now!

I think the Peter Pan update they were talking about was at WDW.

No, PP at DL has some enhancements that I do not believe have made it to WDW yet (if they ever will). Projections that are pretty cool.

Hmm maybe its just that WDW is longer I remember liking it much better than DL's version. I could have sworn it had more digital affects but maybe I'm thinking of all the fun stuff in the cue.

Bobsleds have been reworked. The ride isn't smooth anymore.

Soarin' Over California will be Soarin' Over the World (too much CG stuff). Keep SOC!!!!,

Train - Forget about asking to ride in the Lilybelle.

I have ridden PP at 5 different parks now and they all run together in my head lol! I do know that the projections at DL PP (and Alice) in the last few years are new and a nice touch. I can't remember the last time I rode PP at MK. I think it was March 2019. And I do not remember them having projections like DL. But I may very well be forgetting!
