when is this supposed to open?
I would guess that this cancels a change of a IJ rollercoaster coming to the MK. Unfortunately it has a smaller footprint that could fit in AL easier when compared to the DL/AK dinosaur ride.
I think this is a great addition - I know people seem to always want "more thrills, more thrills" but to me - MK especially is about family's being able to ride things together. This is a perfect update of Snow White. While I'm sure some will miss the current dark ride, I always thought that one was one of Disney World's earliest failures - a ride that is too scary for many in its target audience, and too boring to those who are older. I gladly give up that for this. (Though I would argue against either this or VotLM being "E" tickets, more like "D" - though you can bet the lines will be HUGE early on - which will draw people away from many of the other attractions.
(Does anyone remember the first few years when Pooh came on-line and the lines for it were massive?)
The IJ rollercoaster is in DLPR. Temple of the Forbidden Eye (ala DAK Dinosaur) is in DL. Either would be a nice addition, or should I say any addition without taking anything away would be nice. And I don't see why a kiddie coaster (7DMR) would cancel either of these projects (if they are even being considered)
I am well aware of where these rides exist, thank you.
The reason the IJ temple ride doesn't fit in AL, is because there is barely enough room. They would have to reallign the monorail railroad or even fill in the seven seas lagoon to fit the show building. Not as easy as taking some of the parking lot in DLR.
The reason why the IJ coaster isn't a good fit is the similair ride vehicles to the coming 7DMR. That and it won't quite be a kiddie coaster. That is hundreds of feet away being rethemed in toontown. I'm sure 7DMR will be a bit above that basic kiddie coaster in many ways.
Besides many people dislike the IJ coaster so don't expect more clones of the two that exist in Disney Parks.
Actually there is a huge plot in AL that would hold IJA the ride would just have a long que about a mike long but it's is that long in DL.
I think TSM at HS is for everyone. I cannot think of 1 person who wouldn't enjoy that ride....
THanks for the post I look forward to it.
