Cheese man and I went to a showing for Outfest, where Lesley Ann Warren was watching in the audience and did a Q&A afterwards... she looked fabulous. Best part was when the audience got her to get into character and say... "I'm horny!"

Meh. I don't recall Marry Poppins doing any care taking for wee Prince Arthur. It's King Arthur's Carousel. Worst travesty ever? Hardly, but I wish they'd found some other way to honor her.

Funny, I don't recall Sleeping Beauty hanging out with King Arthur either, but the Carrousel has been decorated with those images for many a year.


I don't think it's the best way to tributize her either, but it's not like the King Arthur Carrousel has always been thematically pure.

If you're going to dedicate something in DL to Mary Poppins isn't a carousel horse about the most appropriate thing? I haven't seen up close pictures of the horse yet. Is the dedication something that really sticks out or more subtle so that most people wouldn't notice?

If the latter, I don't really see the issue. Disneyland rides are full of little tributes that don't technically fit the theming.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Fair enough I suppose.

[BarTopDancer]

How about a Marry Poppins attraction?

I was comparing photos yesterday and it looks like the only changes are that the saddle cloth has been changed from pink to a light blue and some sort of crest has been painted onto the saddle itself. I have not seen detail on that crest.
