Amen. The whole story of Stitch is about adapting to new settings and being accepted. I don't see why we only get pre-story stitch (SGE/SSC).

Re: WDI currently working on Jungle Cruise.

WDW should add robot man eating fish to the Jungle Cruise. It worked well with Disneyland.

Re: WDI currently working on Jungle Cruise.

What ours needs is some fog and fire effects, along with some other state of the art tricks like Hong Kong's version:

Re: WDI currently working on Jungle Cruise.

^Please, no.

The Hong Kong ending, while visually cool, is horribly, horribly out of place on the Jungle Cruise, and completely clashes with the rest of the attraction.

Re: WDI currently working on Jungle Cruise.

And in WDW, that ending would be nonfunctioning in a matter of weeks.

Re: WDI currently working on Jungle Cruise.

well, Hong Kong needs an energizing attraction, unlike the other Jungle Cruises, something exciting, like Indiana Jones, so IMO the temple works really well. Gives the Jungle Cruise a very different feel.

Or use real fish. Make this ride a real people eater, as they say.

Re: WDI currently working on Jungle Cruise.

long time reader first time poster.

I've been following this thread for awhile and i really cannot stand on the sidelines anymore.

It is true by mid November the wdw will have a new spiel...well new for this coast...it is in fact just the 2005 DL spiel just slightly retrofitted to work with our show.

The animation isnt changing...

they are keeping the same animated figures.

They have been doing work, but its just to improve the actual animation of the figures.


Also the jungle cruise is not sched for a refurb anytime soon.

Jungle just had its cosmetic refurb in 2008..nothing is currently planned.

The fantasyland expansion has pretty much sucked up the funding for everything in the MK.

If there was any plans they have been since scraped.

Re: WDI currently working on Jungle Cruise.

But to be fair, we really did need the funding for Fantasyland. Seriously, the tent theme has got to go.

Re: WDI currently working on Jungle Cruise.

in my opinion the jungle looks great at the moment...besides some animation issues...that happen everywhere...for an outdoor attraction..i think its really holding up.

Fantasyland really really needs the update...i agree the tent theme is just sad..including if you frequent Disneyland.
