DaveInTN 3,247 Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 I have my theories on what politically-correct Disney will do with the ocean and oil rig scene in this day and age. I think they turn it into the Frozen fjord from the end of the movie, where Anna saves Elsa, only they will also leave the oil rigs circling the room. Olaf will say "Love will thaw a frozen heart!", and Elsa will say "Of course! Love thaws.....just like the carbon emissions given off by our use of fossil fuels is thawing our polar ice caps!" Then to wrap it all up and provide a tie in to Norway's famous Nobel Peace Prizes, you'll exit through the theater which will now be showing Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth".

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. You missed your calling in life. You should be an Imagineer. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That is my favorite scene, since I do work on an oil rig, I enjoy the 7 seconds we're in there. However, you're thoughts are spot on. Awesome. Cody Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FunFinder265....Cody 36 Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 Damn. Oh well. Got to ride it one more time. Cody Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 but a reliable source says that the event venue in the Norway pavilion has been taken over by Imagineering to use as an office during a "makeover." The assumption is it will be something Frozen themed, but nothing more concrete than that yet. This subtle post by Mo was very telling. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 I meant to mention that old Tom didn't announce any dates for the conversion of the Maelstrom ride. Based on recent history, will 50% of the rides in World Showcase be closed for a year or more as we await the transformation? TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

oft013 23 Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 I will miss the 3 headed troll. I always told our kids that it reminded me of their mom and her 2 sisters. I guess the kids will appreciate that another one of my bad jokes will be put to rest, bummer. (My wife liked the joke too) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
