Hollywood Studios - New Attraction?

[d1gitman]

so supposedly they are gonna put a POC themed attraction in DHS? i certainly welcome the departure of Sounds Dangerous and will be excited to see teh new attraction open, but POC? I understand the magnitude of the franchise but there are so many other directions that Disney could go with putting in a new attraction....Monsters Inc, Incredible, etc....

like i stated, i will be excited to see whatever attractions are added to WDW but i personally would have liked to see something that isn't already a major attraction, let alone is a classic.

I'm fairly certain that it will be the first attraction that was based on a movie that was based on an attraction to ever be built

I read an article about this today and it said the attraction will open this Fall near TSM in place of the Prince Caspian attraction that is currently there. It will not be replacing Sounds Dangerous. It is supposed to be the first hand experience of Jack Sparrow, but the details other than that were vague.

I agree there's other directions they could have gone. POTC hasn't been too relevant lately. Either way, it will be better than the current attraction and I do love POTC.

I am just happy they are replacing Prince Caspian... I thought that could have been much better as we LOVE the Narnia movies!

ahh, if it's replacing prince caspian, fine, but that tells me it's likely to not be anything too major. it still should be better than the prince caspian commercial.

this also gives me hope that something major and good will be replacing sounds dangerous

It's going in Narnia. Sounds Dangerous Closes in 2 weeks, and they've probably been planning this since Narnia closed.

Stranger Tides was released just last year and there are plans for two more installments. Johnny Depp is working on a deal for the fifth film. So I think it's relevant.

Yes, its going where Narnia was.

I have mixed feelings about this. If they hadnt just done a major refurb on POC to add Jack Sparrow to THAT attraction, then I can see this being something of interest. But Sparrow is already part of POC, so it's like having two POC rides. BUT I do like that they are gearing a ride to the boys, what with all the Fantasyland expansion thats going on geared to girls. However, maybe they could have stayed with the Pixar theme and added a Cars themed ride or Monsters Inc etc. DHS does need something though, so it's a step in the right direction and I'll be interested to see how the ride turns out.

my thoughts is - it will be just like the Narnia thing but using POTC stuff
there has been enough time for them to add a ride in there

I doubt that -

"In this attraction, we'll let you walk in the footsteps of Jack Sparrow. It's not 'the making of,' not 'behind the scenes' … it is really a first-person experience," Imagineer Jason Roberts says.

I've started hearing rumblings that this will actually NOT be a ride...they keep calling it an "experience" so I guess we shall see. Narnia WAS in a very small space, so I would be surprised if they could get a ride in there.
