I should know better than to step in the middle of a flame war. Or a lava flow. . . My main point was that Disney does keep changing and that keeps it relevant for my kid, and her kids to come. It's unfortunate when they take something away that we like, but then they put in new things that we might just like, too. You know there are now tikis under the water on the "old" Submarine ride that is now Finding Nemo? It's a ride that's really for the littles, but at least you'll get some pseudo-cool non-movie atmosphere with your Nemo if you have to take your kid on it. There were so many rumors about Pirates before they re-opened, but(aside from the Cap'n Jack pop-ups, admitedly lame)they added great grotto effects, more gold, a better town atmosphere, etc. And they restored the wenches and kept all the dusty old pirates with dogs, pigs and what-have-you, too. Hopefully, the imagineers, in their "wisdom", will keep the look and feel of the Small World continents while they're re-routing and re-boating, and hopefully the new parts they're adding won't be too annoying. But if not, then we can still hide out in the Tiki Room. Now if we could get them to take that Song of the South stuff out of Thunder Mountain and turn it into Thundering Tiki Volcano, we'd have something. Hope this is on topic enough, and no more D-Land talk from me, that's a promise. [ Edited by: Kiki von Tiki 2008-03-12 19:25 ]
