    We were just talking about the AA Jack Sparrow sticking out like a sore thumb.

    Having said that, the whole ride is NOT about Jack Sparrow. The majority of the attraction doesn't even have or mention Jack Sparrow.

    But despite all of this, this isn't the thread to be startin' a ruckus about Pirates.

    But it is.

    You change the reason the pirates are there...you change everything that follows.

    The ride used to be an allagory for the perils greed. Now, what's the lesson? That only the smartest of pirates can get away with greed and have no price to pay in the end?

    Not to get into an "opinions" argument, but quality is subjective as well. What might be good quality for you is not for me. So if somebody wants to say it's of poor quality, that is their opinion.

    So, we're no longer debating the additions to 'it's a small world?'

    I kid. I kid. Maybe.

    Just got back from the CM dedication.

    I really liked it! The characters all blended in really well, but I think I missed a couple of them. Alice and Aladdin & Jasmine, I think, are the nicest of them.

    The America scene was very small, but really it is not a jarring addition. It feels very at home and a natural transition. Definatley not as good as Paris' America scene which is larger and more packed with landmarks. I guess that would be overkill here anyway.

    The show lighting in the finale shifts colors, I don't remember it doing that before. And I also could not pick up any of the Disney film music in the song. I'll have to listen even closer next time, I was too busy looking for characters it seems.

    It seemed to be well received by those in attendence.

    Very good news! And I like the part of the shifting light colors at the finale. Sounds intriguing.

    I'm glad to hear of good news.

    I'd hope that even those without any hope for the new additions would like for them to work out for the best.
