Seriously. Can't you guys create a separate thread for complaining about New Fantasyland? I haven't been on here in a while, and it's a pain trying to go back and find actual updates on this thread.

Haven't been on here since June last year, so, hello.

This ride looks really beautiful and well done. I love the swaying motion. Are there going to be slow parts inside the mountain/cave/whatever it is with animatronics and things like that? I feel what BTMR lacks is theming like that.

Seriously, though, it took way to long to build this. If it isn't perfect, then I don't know what to say!

Because Pixie dusters biggest issue with Uni is the screens. I like Disney and go there all the time, but I see their faults and I think the pixie dusters are looney :)

You'd think with how much money they've supposedly saved from spreading out the costs and stretching this out as far as possible that they could afford a few minimalistic AA's...

I'm actually shocked if this is true.

I wonder if they are going to be attempting any sort of 'perspective shifting' to give the screens an impression of depth (like what Universal did with Transformer's and Spiderman, etc).

I have no issue with a ride using screens. It's all about how well they are utilized to create the illusion. Based on what I've seen from Disney (The Little Mermaid Ride, Toy Story Midway Mania, etc), I don't feel very confident about their ability to use screens effectively.

The fire on top of Little Mermaid the other day reminded me of something I had considered back when I first saw those new fake trees going in on top of Dwarf Mountain. Do you think the trees will be fire proof? And not because of firework debris either. Because being in Florida (lightning capital, USA) you know its only a matter of when, not if, those trees up there will get struck. You would think, considering their height, they would not only need to be fire resistant but also designed with integrated lightning rods.

the problem with screens, is that it kinda meshes poorly with the AA's (if there are any?!) Going from a cartoon to an AA kinda cheapens the ride to me.

Okay okay....I feel guilty about the statement I said earlier that their wouldn't be AA's but just screens. I dont like trolling and wont do it again. The only reason I said it was because I wanted to see how you guys would react to it. As expected, there is a bias between Disney and Universal. I would think that those higher up on these boards wouldn't be like that but guess not. It seems like nearly all of Universals rides are screens so I dont understand the joke. I hate rides that use mostly screens and dont have AA's.I positive that the dwarfs are gonna be AA's. And if they arn't AA's, there's nothing to laugh about because Universal does it all the time.

And here is an update of the faux grass meadow theming.

I sometimes wonder how the 2009 version would have looked like

This is a newer one.

And I feel like its kinda starting to look like this with the grass having little red flowers in it.

^So hold up. That was just a bunch of BS? I can't find anything pointing to them being just screens.
