Soarin' ...New Movie?

[NotaGeek]

Mufasa is cool!

#1 - Soarin' doesn't need changing; it is one of the better rides in all of WDW.

#2 - Disney will not quickly pour so much money into redoing a ride that is fabulously successful so soon after its opening.

#3 - Disney purists (most of us on this board) would be outraged if they changed it. It's called the "Mr. Toad Principle."

Except for the fact that according to the scuttlebutt when Soarin' was coming to Epcot, the original plan was to use the California film initially as part of the gift from Disneyland, and then change the film to more of a world view. Look at the posters in the que. My prediction is, that reflects the next Soarin' film.

I like it just the way it is.

I like it just the way it is also, but as someone mentioned, I always wondered why the 'questions' on the screens in the queue were not solely about California and why it was just called Soarin' as oppossed to Soarin' over California like its DL counterpart. Sounds like they did leave it open for changes in the future. Though I think its just fabulous as is, I am curious to see what it would be like with an 'around the world' film.

I agree with HndrdPrcnt. They should update Star Tours before changing Soarin'.

True...but in part
i wouldnt mind updating the movies in WS...they need it.
Walt wanted Epcot to reflect change didnt he?
Carousel of Progress reflects change.
change doesnt have to mean closing a ride.
and Soaring being added to Epcot in the first place was a change.
I like Soaring...as long as it attracts a line they probably wont change it. but it should change sometime to reflect the world.
i love WS just because it shows the diff countries, mayb not accurately but i couldnt afford to go to all those countries for real

Adressing the changing to movies in WS:

I have read that these videos are funded and created by the specific country representatives; Disney has no control over the updating or change of any of the WS rides or videos.

Can anyone confirm?
