    Either way, I'm looking forward to see if they can breathe new life into this ride and make it more worthwhile to see.

    Disney has a tendency lately to use overly long names. Look at what just happened to Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor comedy Club. They dropped the "Comedy Club" part and now it's just "Laugh Floor". It's too much to say, and do you honestly think guests are going to be able to say the full name at the parks? They're just going to ask where Monsters Inc is, or something like that. I have no idea how they will butcher Gran Fiesta Tour. Probably "Mexican boat ride" or something. Heck, they still call the Haunted Mansion the Haunted House or whatever else. I just think Disney tries to be overly creative with the names. They need to go simpler.

    I'm sure there are more, but that's just an example of recent attractions.

    You may be right, I'm just not sure you are without really making a comparison. We get so used to calling attractions by their short name that's easy to forget what their full name is.

    It was going to just be called Forbidden Mountain until months prior to opening. That would have been a better name.

    A technicality, but the project was known by its full name, Expedition Everest: Legend of the Forbidden Mountain" for over 3 YEARS prior to its opening, as that was the name given to the attraction when it was announced April 22, 2003.

    However, you are correct in that it was just a few months prior to the official announcement that the project known as Forbidden Mountain received the offical name with the EE title.

    Either way, in Everest's case, I like the long name. As for some of the others recently, I agree with those above that they are too long and unecessary to get the point of the attraction across, including Gran Fiesta Tour.
