In the US? Many might say Radiator Springs at DCA. WDW? It would probably be Tower of Terror...What is the last groundbreaking attraction Disney has actually opened. Boy this redoing of existing rides is really getting old.

Probably having a few drinks to cope with the news.@lockedoutlogic Where are you when the big news drops?
Okay, I have only ridden the DHS one and its a great attraction. The DCA only goes up and down, the DHS one, the elevators actually move through the building before dropping.

Plus the $14B to get Pixar, Star Wars, and Marvel. Hardly cheap - those are serious investments.Doing things cheap? But they spent 5 billion on Shanghai, and plan to spend 2 billion just for Disneyland.
That's 14 billion wasn't spent on the parks though. Those were definitely good investments but look at it from a parks fan perspective. What major things have WDW gotten in the last 10 years?Plus the $14B to get Pixar, Star Wars, and Marvel. Hardly cheap - those are serious investments.
Sorry to correct you, but Indiana Jones Adventure was actually 1995.That's 14 billion wasn't spent on the parks though. Those were definitely good investments but look at it from a parks fan perspective. What major things have WDW gotten in the last 10 years?
New fantasyland 2014
TSMM 2008
Everest 2006
Anything else? That's a pretty short list...
DLR hasn't gotten anything major in DL since Indiana Jones which was in the 80s... DCA was given a ton of stuff because the park was failing terribly and needed it.
Thanks. That's still a long time. For some reason I had 1985 in my head.Sorry to correct you, but Indiana Jones Adventure was actually 1995.

I'd die and go to heaven if there was an A:TLA theme park!I understand your frustration. I live close to Cedar Point. They literally have at least 1 new ride every year. There is always a reason to go back. However, they close for the winter season and lack in every area that isn't thrill rides. WDW does have a lot of new renovations coming up. Avatar, Toy Story and Star Wars will be significant changes to the park. I just wish it was Avatar: The Last Airbender. I would go nuts for an Air nomad temple instead of the Pandora forest. Curse you Nickelodeon for having that one under your umbrella.
We just don't agree, but I think history is on my side. People move on. Period. If that wasn't the case, you'd have had an exodus when they rethemed or removed any number of rides. Yet attendance increases over time.Completely disagree. A majority of people who go to Disney are not first timers. They go on vacations with family and they pass it on to their kids etc etc. Based on all the negative reaction I have seen, not only on this board, but on their own twitter, Facebook, and basically any other website that posted about it, it should lead someone to believe that a majority of people dislike the move.
" Give it some time and many of the people who frequent the park won't even know that it used to be a different ride " is an insane statement to me. TOT is an iconic ride and one of the most beloved rides in Disney. Disney is financed by the " die hards " who pay all the money to go, even though Disney does things we don't like sometimes.
To me, this is Disney stupidity because there is no way that in the meeting to discuss doing this, that they didn't believe they would see a massive backlash from people who visit the park. Thats the point. They did it knowing it would piss a lot of people off, but in the end, they care about one thing. MONEY.
Disney fans are on a short leash right now from all the increases they have been doing, and they shouldn't do even more things to break the straw on the camels back.
I don't think the DL version is so loved. It's certainly not nearly the attraction the one in WDW is.Ok, but you don't take out one of the most loved rides in the parks to do something with it.
I don't understand this thinking as it relates to this decision, though.I really think this will be another case of let's stop having unique things in each park and replicate everything.
