Indiana Jones ride moving forward

From Screamscape today:

"The latest rumor from one of our sources claims that discussions to build a new version of the Indiana Jones Adventure ride from Disneyland on the site of the Stunt Show are about 75% complete at this point. If they can agree on a price and a timeline it may be approved."

Re: Indiana Jones ride moving forward

Is the Indiana Jones ride very similar to Dinosaur. in that you are in a jeep and it bumps and throws you around?

You are in a jeep. I do not know how bumpy it is, but it is a very different experience. It also seems logical that this may be an updated or different version from Disneyland, not an exact clone.

They are the exact same vehicles and type of ride as Dinosaur.

Re: Indiana Jones ride moving forward

I sure hope they do it. The ride at DLR is soooo much better than the stunt show at MGM. It is just like Dinosaur, with the same type of vehicles, but the ride scenery is taken right out of an Indy movie! It's a great ride.

Re: Indiana Jones ride moving forward

That would be a very welcome addition to MGM. They really don't need two stunt shows and something is needed to take the crowd from the area where Tot and RnRRC are. Hope it happens!

Re: Indiana Jones ride moving forward

YES YES YES!!!
I can't wait! Indiana Jones & new Disney rides - my 2 favorite things! :)

rhodisney - I liked Indiana Jones better. Dinosaur used to be my favorite ride, but the last time I went on it, it was really rough. A lot worse than I remembered. I went to DL a few months after that and I rode Indiana Jones 4 times in a row, lol.

Re: Indiana Jones ride moving forward

Kewl!

I hope it goes through as planned...the stunt show is cool and all, but somehow Indiana Jones is the one ride missing whenever I go to WDW. With the addition of Expedition Everest, WDW will have their own version of the Matterhorn too...pretty soon, DL's gonna have nothing sacred! LOL

Re: Indiana Jones ride moving forward

Here is an article that suggests this might be more rumor than fact... Your mileage may vary. :)

I saw that Jim Hill article too. Can't wait to see which rumor is true! (Personally, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the ride)

Re: Indiana Jones ride moving forward

I guess I'm still skeptical that Disney would do such a big undertaking right now, when they're trying to do so many other things...but I'm keeping my fingers crossed nonetheless.

Actually, the time frame was estimated to be like 2007. Still a ways out.

I don't necessarily think it would happen quickly. Look at the 20,000 Leagues area. The Stunt Show may just close and stay for a bit before anything happens. I would hope not, but it's possible.
