So sad. It was neglected for too long for maintenance. Under new management, the intended purpose of this theme park on opening day would potentially get trampled on in this supposed future with these conceived replacement ideas, this theme park _needs_ dinosaurs. I only rode it once, but I have a positive opinion of this ride.
I wasn't a fan of the ride when I was younger. Maybe because of the fact I was introduced to this when I was 10-11 years old. But later on this did also become a ride I enjoyed a lot because of the excitement. I never truly realized that 2023 would be the last time I would ride it. Good memories last as long as you remember it.
The wording of the announcement insinuated that Dinosaur will remain open for a while when they start demolition and construction of the surrounding area. I'm hoping that's the case so everyone can get one last ride in.
It's a ride with such a great concept, but you can tell Disney has not looked after it at all, half the animatronics are broken or frozen and effects are half removed or broken for capacity over immersion, you can tell they are replacing it with a clone from another park because they'd rather hype up an IP then repair an already good attraction that needs TLC, it feels like they purposefully left it to rot to give a reason to replace it.
This ride deserved better. It shouldn’t be replaced. It should’ve been repaired in every place it wasn’t. And the land should’ve been changed for the better.
Good god, are they just going to let this attraction rot until they replace it? Half the dinosaurs are broken, none of the show doors working and lots of audio missing.... embarrassing
I don’t care what anyone else says. This ride will always be alive in me ❤️🦕 A Tropical Americas theme in this park also sounds cool but creating two attractions based on movies where the main focus and characters aren't animals kind of irrationalizes the animal theme of this park. An Ice Age franchise🦣cross theme in Dinoland would probably have been more logical. Just saying.
They said Fall is when the new land will start construction, but it's apparently going in phrases, so you may be fine! Just go there early and do it a few times if it's open.
4:51 Yikes! Seeing the back of one of the vehicles REALLY breaks the immersion of how bumpy the ride is. They really need to space this better so that we never see the back of another vehicle performing it's bumpy movements like in Indy over in CA
I wonder whether they'll reuse the dinosaur animatronics somehow, it'll be sad if they go to waste (even if some aspects of this attraction are showing their age)
It makes very little sense to put Indiana Jones in Animal Kingdom though, especially since he already has an attraction at Hollywood Studios. It's hard to fathom why they don't just fix up Dinosaur and put Indie's new ride with his other ones.
