    New Attractions would include:
    - A Tortuga Resteraunt
    - The Swiss Family Treehouose being rethemed to Black Beard's Ship
    - A new Pirate version for the Enchanted Tiki Room
    - An outdoor coaster ride that would tie into the proposed storyline for a 4th Pirates film where they quest to find the Fountain of Youth. 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 am all for another thrill ride at the MK, but it better be top notch Tower of Terror and Indiana Jones Adventure at Disneyland quality.

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.

    The only thing that's definitely happening is the new Pirate-themed dining experience where Adventureland Veranda has sat closed since 1994.

    I doubt that any of the other items will ever happen, although they have all been put on the table in Glendale.

    This is already being done at Hong Kong Disneyland with some degree of success.. but then again, they in HKDL don't have an arabian-style spinner in the middle of it all to throw off the pirate/adventure theme like the MK's Adventureland so succesfully does.
