Well, as someone else pointed out, if Walmart can do it, then so can Disney! (And I HATE the holiday creep!!!)

assuming they get the humor right and keep / reference the puns, and maybe have some tie-ins to the S.E.A. like the Skipper's Canteen does this could be tremendous

Agreed, however someone pointed out elsewhere that I hope a Dwayne Johnson AA doesn't appear in the Jungle Cruise if the movie is a success.

Agreed, although I am already thinking of the puns
- you will notice that we are now in-between a rock and a Rock
- If you enjoyed that joke, well, You're Welcome!
- After your cruise, I suggest you visit the skipper's canteen - if you can smell .... what the cast members ... are cookin'!

The Lion King is probably my favorite Disney Theatrical Musical. I have seen it 5 times, and it is coming to the city I live at next year! I already have the dates it is here on my calendar. I also think the Lion King put Disney Theatrical on the map. Yes, I know they had success with Beauty and the Beast, but the Lion King went to a whole other level in my opinion. I'm also going to D23, so I'm hoping to see her in person.

Ironically, despite being a fan of both the Lion King and the theater in general I've never seen this play, but I have given tickets to it as a gift on 3 separate occasions lol.

If it fits in with the theme, gets it's own punny joke from the skippers, and is appropriate based on the movie, why not? Pirates is an amazing integration. Frozen is a crappy take over. So long as it is the former, and not the latter, I wouldn't have a problem with it.

Some would debate the Pirates integration. I frankly don't remember what it was like pre-Johnny Depp. Not every ride needs a movie tie in though.

No. It doesn't. But if you go to the trouble of making a good movie based on the ride (not Haunted House. Uggh) I don't mind a bit of a tie in. But if you are gong to have rides with character tie-ins, MK is a good place to have them in my opinion.

As for pre-movie Pirates there was nothing wrong with it. Just as there is nothing wrong with the Jungle Cruise. But the integration was good. Most of the original ride and animatronics stayed and the integration was just some fun enhancements that brought in a smattering of the main character and shifted the scenery slightly so it could fit in, sort of, with the movie storyline.

I approve. The area in front of the tree could get very crowded at night with people watching.
