Everything is just dumbed down and people seem to follow along mindlessly.

I think TSMM will be quite popular, especially since it is a dark ride (kinda) in a park that needs many more dark rides. The exterior adds depth to Paradise Pier compared to what was there before.

It will certainly add a little something extra to the attractiona, and will make it more interesting to ride year-round. It also shows that, unlike other attractions, they actually do have plans to keep updating this one.
