The Enchanted Tiki Room MOVIE? - General Tiki

As to the WDW version of the attraction, I think it is universally disliked and suspect Disney learned from their mistake. Zero positive reviews has to count for something. A movie combined with a refurb (I hope more for a return to its beginnings rather than another WDW attempt to modernize it) might be a great way to re-invigorate interest. The Haunted Mansion movie didn't work so well though I didn't hate it as much as some did, and both the first Pirates of the Caribbean and Alice in Wonderland movies worked perfectly (though I'm not clear how much they tied the Alice movie to park characters and attractions, I have to suspect they're doing their best to capitalize on this). A tie-in with their Hawaii property makes sense. If anyone has a chance of pulling off something cool, its Disney. I'd like to see more interest in the original attraction, and the deep roots it has in the Polynesian Pop that was popular when it was built. I'm glad Disney appears to be trying something, rather than letting the attraction age and eventually be removed. dcman
