Jim compared it to a Pirate themed version of the Raging Spirits coaster. So what do you think? Personally I think this is a great idea for MK.

I see no reason for a retheming like this, especially because it would be too late. By the time it opens, the entire Pirates phenomenon will be over (And I am a fan of it, but I would be surprised if it was huge in 2011). If they must do this, I would be ok with doing something in the Tiki Room, if the move the entrance to the Pirates courtyard. The Under New Management show is awful.

Originally Posted By hightp When they 1st changed the Tiki room I thought it was going to become very dated, very fast. I don't know why they argeed to make the change, if they didn't want to update the songs on a regular basis. I think a Pirate theme would be great, at this point.
