The dates for DCA's grand re-opening event have finally been chosen. June 14th will be the media day and private celebrity party, and June 15th will be the official first day of operation for customers. There will only be a handful of days for AP Previews and soft openings for Cars Land in early June, and those dates aren't confirmed yet. June 15th will also kick off DCA's new operating schedule of daily 8AM to 11PM hours through the summer.
It's being rumored that the grand reopening will be June 15th:
Eh, still not doing it for me. Looking forward to the return of flying saucers and RSR and the town in general, but without the interactive elements, Mater's just looks to be too much like spinning in circles in the dirt.
Jymmy jymmy jymmy... The ride is for lil kids. Larry playing Mater has a familiar and friendly voice for children. The ride looks well themed and cute despite the cuts, compared to let's say Teacups?
Yeah, except if they built the Tea Cups today, it would be considered crap. Disney showed us how good it could have been, and left us with this instead. I gotta agree with Jymmy. The other ride seemed like it had some cool elements that could helps adults enjoy it. But it has been reduced to original DCA quality.
Disney adds two simple side dishes to its ridiculously enormous entree and all you guys do is complain.
God forbid anybody criticize Disney, right? I criticize Universal all the time. Get over it.
I said that I was excited about the entire land, especially RSR and the return of flying saucers, but that Mater's had lost appeal. How is that complaining?
I've been a season pass holder to Disneyland since before DCA opened. I was there for the dark years of DCA (Superstar Limo, anyone?). Cars Land is a major, major, exciting development. Mater's was supposed to be the first "outdoor dark ride", complete with interactive elements and a giant Mater. Now it doesn't, and I'm a little disappointed. Didn't realize it had to be all or nothing.
Get over it.
Or would you rather trade Carsland for our Fantasyland expansion? I'm okay with that.
