Alladin eplacement was just a rumor, new castmembers are being auditioned and will be trained to continue the show for awhile still. If you are looking into what will come to DCA within the next two years you should expect. Midway Madness which will be built in Paradise pier behind Screamin with an entrance approximately located where the photo location is. A nighttime lagoon show for DCA which will debut sometime in 2007 or 2008. placemaking and upgrade in theming in the paradise pier area maybe including a piece of route 66. There is still an "e" ticket on the agenda for late 2008 early 2009. Decisions are still being made.
Originally Posted By bean I forgot to mention that Screamin will be getting an overlay. Plans are to add special lighting and effects as well as a new soundtrack and would debut at approximately the same time the Rockit mountain in Disneyland would debut. The tentative schedule is to debut sometime January and last to approximately march or april. At this point it would be a seasonal event. things could change though.

I think the part with the tunnels/lifts also changed slightly, using blue lights on the first lift and an new video on the second one. I think they also lit up some of the props that were added in the last rehab, like the "exploding" asteroid between lifts 2 and 3.

Originally Posted By BrnardM It's also been floating around that TOT will be reprogrammed in the spring. No idea on the specifics though.
Originally Posted By Kansasteen they really just need to continue to put in ORIGINAL attractions, I would be really disappointed if they put in RnR coaster, which I doubt they have room for they need more original things,like the monsters inc. ride
