Comments on: With Closure of Snow White’s Scary Adventures, Disney Plans to Honor Heritage with New Ride http://www.diszine.com/content/with-closure-of-snow-whites-scary-adventures-disney-plans-to-honor-heritage-with-new-ride A Magazine Dedicated to Disney Fans Thu, 25 Apr 2013 16:03:47 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: Brooke Fehr http://www.diszine.com/content/with-closure-of-snow-whites-scary-adventures-disney-plans-to-honor-heritage-with-new-ride/comment-page-1#comment-6977 Brooke Fehr Fri, 04 Feb 2011 23:42:26 +0000 http://www.diszine.com/?p=8166#comment-6977 You know, it's a little thing...but I loved the rotating sun in the South Pacific/Polynesian portion of IASW. You know - how it rotated, and caused a neat shadow effect on the wall. The last time I rode it before it went down for its last renovation, I noticed it wasn't rotating. This week, I noted they completely redid the sun, and took away the moving feature. Now it projects out from the wall, like a dome. Thanks for the praise. We definitely look forward to your bringing California insight to any and all posts! You know, it’s a little thing…but I loved the rotating sun in the South Pacific/Polynesian portion of IASW.

I do think that overall most folks see trading the dark ride for the family coaster as an overall plus. What was the element of IASW that you missed? Being a Californian I really liked it when they redesigned the IASW queue to replicate the facade of the Disneyland attraction. Nice site! keep up the good work. Good points Brooke.

As for the emotional backlash, I'm sure you could find fans who are attached to just about any facet of the park, but I'm sure the case here centers around this being an original attraction, even if the renovation changed it significantly. After all, most rides at Disney parks have undergone renovations that change elements significantly from past versions. I was a little saddened to see one of my favorite elements gone from MK's It's a Small World when I visited the other day. It may not have been original, but it was one that I loved, and notably missed. Thanks again for reading, and for taking the time to comment!

As incredible as it seems the original did not have Snow White in it. The rider was experiencing titular character's Scary Adventure. Snow White was added to the second version of the attraction which was a complete top to bottom renovation. So it seems funny that folks are getting emotional about this change without realizing that this is not an original attraction. How many Disney fans does it take to change a lightbulb? One to change the bulb and hundreds to complain about the change. No one seems to remember that this is not the original Snow White ride at Walt Disney World.
