Disney Parks are always evolving, but not every change is met with open arms. In this episode, we dive into why some Disney fans get upset when classic attractions are re-themed, or even completely replaced (for example Ryan's bitterness over The Great Movie Ride) Is it nostalgia? A fear of change? Or something more? We’ll discuss some of the most controversial attraction overhauls, from Splash Mountain to Maelstrom, and explore what makes these updates so divisive. Plus, we’ll debate whether Disney should focus more on preserving history or embracing fresh storytelling. Finally, we attempt to create a Mount Rushmore of attractions that we think will never be changed or removed (it's harder than it sounds)!
