Meanwhile in Walt Disney World, the Orlando version of the ride reopened to the public featuring a new scene.

The scene that previously portrayed women being bought and sold was revamped to be a bit more family friendly.

Before the Redhead gets her upgrade. #piratesofthecaribbean #wewantstheredhead #disneyland

I mean, yea that's a little dark for Disney.

The scene, shown below, now has the infamous redhead as a pirate auctioning off goods from the town people.

Pirates of the Caribbean at Walt Disney World Resort will reopen March 19 with a new auction scene. Get a sneak peek at the new scene now on the Disney Parks Blog!

This isn't the first time the ride has been adjusted with the times. Back in the 90's, there was a scene that had pirates chasing women around their homes. Again, a bit dark for Disney. The ride was updated to have the women chasing the pirates with with rolling pins trying to catch them for stealing. Much funnier.

Although I think this update was needed, we'll always remember that famous line...

We wants the red head!
