Plus, the ol' Liberty Belle will have the Rivers of America all to herself then!!! ;-)

Originally Posted By pheneix No, actually there was a rumor about Pirates being ripped out in 2003, but that wasn't what I was alluding too. I had heard that the Jungle Cruise (proving that we were actually on completely different wavelengths) was going to go under yet another PC rehab, this time to remove the, get this, skulls on the attraction because they were "too frightening since 9/11." I'm not joking. Does Disney have a spine anymore?
Originally Posted By WEDWAY100 I heard a rumor that they were going to tear down Cinderella's castle, and move the water tower from MGM in it's place. It will theme in much better with Main Street, and it will be much easier to paint every ten years or so. They will still have Cinderella's character breakfast, but it will be in the building that currently houses the Snow White attraction. Snow White is being removed because it is too scary for the children.
Originally Posted By Flick Yes, Jungle Cruise is a museum piece and it takes up a lot of real estate. The sooner Disney gets rid of this one the better. Good call pheneix!
Originally Posted By brotherdave Easy, Flick. Some of us LIKE the Jungle Cruise the way it is. One of the few DL rides transplanted to Florida with little changes (and a few additions, as well). Plus, depending on your guide, it can be downright hysterical at times, too! I, for one, hope it never is replaced.
Originally Posted By Goofyernmost Let's face it, anyone could find any reason to remove any attraction for some reason or other. The fact of the matter is that some of these attractions will be saved for the same reason that some of them go..the almighty dollar. As long as Jungle Cruise has a line that runs forever, it will not close. When people stop going, like CoP, bye bye fake snakes. I don't have anything against Tom Sawyers Island either but if it were a high cost to keep and if they could "imagine" something to put there it would have gone years ago. When they close "Pirates" I will know that Disney is no longer Disney and I will start leaving my money at Universal.

Lagoons, anyone??
Originally Posted By ubiwrksfan It has become official so I can reveal now that the attraction being ripped out is Jungle Cruise. Because of all the controversy it has caused they feel that it no longer matches the theming in Adventureland. Ideas being tossed around are an spiderman style ride themed in the desert/Agrabah. Disneys answer to The scorpion king ride Universal planning. Other ideas will be tossed around as well. Sorry to break the bad news to you but, you will hear it offcially soon enough.
Originally Posted By x-TDL-character While it doesn't particularly bother me that Jungle Cruise is getting the axe (that ride never appealed to me much, I hardly ever ride it), I'm afraid that this "ideas being tossed around" is rather meaningless these days! I'm worried that, as I talked about above, the land that was once the Jungle Cruise will just sit unused for months...and then years. :'( But I hope not! : ) A spiderman type ride would rock!!
