So confused ROL vs Jungle Book?????

[Leigh123]

We just got back on the 21st, so we were among those disappointed with the delays for River's of Light. Is this show now called Jungle Book, or if this a temporary show until ROL is ready?????????????

....thanks so much in advance.

I am starting to plan for our December trip and I am really confused.

From what I can gather, Jungle Book is a temporary show using (the working) part of Rivers of Life show.
Im guessing ROL will take over if/when they can fix the remaining issues.

Jungle book is only temporary until they can get the bugs worked out of Rivers of Light.

We actually got the project manager for AK expansion at our recent dining with an imagineer dinner. He said the Jungle Book show was temporary but that they had many shows they could put on using the Rivers of Light theater (apparently it doesn't have any other name yet) until ROL (the show) was ready to go.

Said the other day when billboards starting showing up advertising "Alive with Magic" at the AK, but with a picture of the tree ... that why not have "Finding Dory: Alive with Magic" "Pete's Dragon: Alive with Magic" ............. could be a long wait filled with "temporary" shows.

UGH. I don't believe the reasons RoL is not running but from all videos seen and reviews it sounds like there aren't ANY working parts of RoL being used. The water walls are not fully functioning with the water not connecting therefore part of the projection falls off into the abyss. Barges with Small World buildings are new and the moving barges are Fantasmic barges. I don't think anything else is from RoL.

Maybe December will be showing RoL but right now it's far enough out there that all the actors have left and gotten jobs elsewhere.....not a good sign.
