Kali River Rapids refurbishment

My daughter will be upset for our trip. I will be thankful. Not a fan of that ride.

I hope the refurb actually adds some more water elements, i never seem to get wet enough on Kali

I wish it was still an airport and guests could use it. I have my license, and it would be cool to do a fly in/fly out trip to WDW. Although, I would be very tempted to buzz the castle or some other landmark, which could be trouble...

Somewhere in my parents photo archive is a pic from about 1970 where we flew low enough by the castle to get pics of the workers on the upper portion of the castle.

we find that generally it seems about 1-2 people per raft get soaked and then everyone else stays pretty dry.

My kids love that element - guess sort of the Russian Roulette thrill for them, and of course they love it if mom or dad is one of the people that get soaked

I really hope this is the urban fantasy movie we heard about at d23.

It very easily could be - it's supposedly about two brothers, which could easily be Chris Pratt's and Tom Holland's roles. I'm excited for Julia Louis Dreyfus and Octavia Spencer, I love those actresses and wished Octavia's part in Zootopia had been bigger.

Very odd that there's isn't even a plot summary. I realize we are 16 months away, but that means it is well down the development pipeline. (Story likely locked and most animation well underway.) Why announce now?

Guess I will be looking forward to seeing this one at D23 next year!

Sit next to me. You're guaranteed to get soaked, and I'm not. None of my family ever wants to sit next to me.

Great news!! I've been so excited for this one ever since d23.

It's a very emotional topic for the director, so you know it's gonna be a true Pixar gut punch film.

Ditto.

Haven't road Kali yet, but if it's like Grizzly river rapids at DCA, the seats near the gap where you board the raft, seem to let the water in. Those are the danger zone in my opinion.
