I don't understand why everything needs a retheme. Hey, Vampirina is a new Disney Junior Show, let's retheme Haunted Mansion to the Vampirina house! There is an abominable snowman in Monsters Inc. let's retheme Expedition Everest! Miles from Tomorrowland was in space, let's retheme Space Mountain! Zootopia made a billion dollars, lets just change the Animal Kingdom to Zootopia land!
There's some birds in that movie up, let's retheme the bird show with some characters from that movie.....oh yeah already did that.
Where's the imagination from the imagineers??!! The best attractions have come from imagineers creating a story and then theming a ride after that unique story they created. Many of them are so good and iconic THEY inspire a movie, not the other way around. I feel like too many attractions are dreamed up by looking at a list of the most recent movies. Absolutely there is a place for rides themed after movies, but come on, not every single one of them! If an attraction is truly dated and needs a facelift because no one is filling up the lines, how about a completely original retheme? I'm sure the imagineers could come up with a great original adventure that takes place in Mexico to retheme the Three Caballeros to. Obviously it's not very popular right now, my oldest daughter loves Donald so we ride it all the time, but it's so empty that we have ridden 4 times in a row in the front seat in an empty boat without getting off in the middle of summer!! And this has happened many times so it wasn't just a fluke.
