    Why a ride that just got an overhaul is getting a refurb already is beyond me, especially when rides like BTMRR, JC, and Buzz desperately need them.

    But I've got a pretty good feeling why.

    Characters are coming.

    Do we have to add synergy to everything? IASW is DISNEY enough as it is.

    The problem is there are rides that are coming apart at the seams that NEED a refurb bad.

    And now it'll have movie themes added into it. Fan-freaking-tastic.

    Negative. Makes for sense on JC than IASW. (ouch, low blow)

    IASW cartoonish? C'mon.

    It doesn't belong on either of them. they are both quintessentially DISNEY rides and they already come branded with that.

    Agreed that IASW isn't cartoonish. It's a art style/form.


    And besides...if it isn't broke, why fix it?
