[Chat] Wishful Thinking for the Rivers of America Renovation

[Walt Jr.]

My Christmas List of Things that can be done this Winter and Spring when the Rivers are drained.

1. Fix the Gas Pipes for the Burning Cabin
2. Restore all the AA's on the River
3. Bring back the Keel Boat
4. Fix up the Natures Wonderland Train with the Gopher AA's and a bit of fresh paint, you can age it but right now it looks like wood rot.
5. Add something good to Pirates Lair, like something in that wasted pirate ship.
6. Fix Murphy up to how she originally was supposed to work.
7. Leave Room for Tiana's Showboat Jubilee this Summer! =)

1. No way that can happen because the way the cabin looks now makes it impossible for the burning cabin to return.
2. Tony Baxter plans to do just that.
3. I heard it's suppose to come back as a prop. It has been sinking latley.
4. I agree
5. Lets hope
6. Thats whats been happening almost every single night.
7. No comment

The good news is that at least a few of these are on Tony Baxter's to-do list, from what I've heard... numbers 2 and 4, specifically. And 6 has been sort of in-progress since Fantasmic came back. And I would LOVE for 1 and 3 to happen as well, but I question how likely that really is at this point.

I think he means return Tiana's Showboat Jubilee next summer.

Re: Wishful Thinking for the Rivers of America Renovation

I would rather they save their money and build a new Cascade Peak... later opening up several new attractions based in/on/around said peak which would bring Frontierland back to life.

Re: Wishful Thinking for the Rivers of America Renovation

Ohh ok, that's what I was on to.

Re: Wishful Thinking for the Rivers of America Renovation

I would want them to also replace the fountains for Fantasmic to help match up to the Fantasmic fountains at Disneyworld.

See the river in that back corner extend to the old Festival of Fools area and create an ampitheatre back there for Fantasmic.

Theres no way that will ever happen. Costs way too much!!

I hope they upgrade the F! fountains to the latest available fountains also.

Ew no!

I think a fountain upgrade is needed but NOT to WDW's system. I've heard rumors plenty of times of the fountains are going to be upgraded to swaying fountains like TDS's BraviSEAmo's. But I wouldn't count on it. We can only hope.

Just the lighting on the fountains

Darn I was hoping they would put new fountains in too and change up how they use the fountains. Oh well..

Yeah ... but dont u think Disneyland's fantasmic fountains are unique in there own way? WDW fountains are ok, but i truly belive that DL's is better

Re: Wishful Thinking for the Rivers of America Renovation

I'd say do the proposed things like the keel boat display, burning cabin, more animal AA's, fix the mine train....but go more ambitious for Fantasmic and build infrastructure to do a 20,000 Leagues segment with the Nautilus and giant squid rising out of the water to attack it. Change the show up some, maybe in place of the Jungle book/Ka segment.

Re: Wishful Thinking for the Rivers of America Renovation

... Change the show up ...

Na :yuck: sticking to the original stroy is the best thing to do look what happened to WDW's version of fantasmic. They wanted to change it up a little, and it doesn't compare to DL's version :judge:

Re: Wishful Thinking for the Rivers of America Renovation

By change the show I meant in how they fountains are used throughout the show. Put a fire whip or moving fountain in, something to make how the fountains are used new and exciting. They are used quite plainly right now.

NOT in changing the storyline. That would be crazy.

I wish! What would they have to do to the Mark Twain Track I wonder?
