Pirates open now - Page 9

SacTown Chronic · 06-27-2006, 10:04 AM

I'd better see the movie before experiencing the re-done attraction. I'm hard pressed to tell the difference between Johnny Depp in acting mode and an animatronic as it is. Seeing Depp in the movie after viewing his animatronic likeness might be too much for me to handle.

Now, we're thinking that we'll go on Thursday before Nina Hagen at HOB.

I wonder when we'll see Cars?

Will you go sooner if we say they added swans to the ride?

Possibly.

And this is what was missing in Cars, as well.

I've been concerned about it. A while ago I said on this board that there is only one Disney ride I find endlessly rideable; that ride is Pirates. I wasn't stuck on it remaining exactly the way it was but I also didn't want them to ruin whatever ineffable quality makes it work for me. I probably won't get to ride until sometime in August but I'm heartened that I have yet to year a single solidly negative reaction.

That's right, just like there are now hoards of 20ish'ers out there complaining that boat captains are NOT supposed to have guns, and pirates are supposed to chase food.

Did I misunderstand? If that's the case, I'm pretty depressed......

No, no, no. That remains in tact. Squirrels continue to be ahead.
