If that’s their idea, then just let it die.

It looks like a great ride for the little ones and helps fill in that corner of the park really well. Hopefully this can roll out in the next few years.

Though personally, I am a little disappointed that it’s another teacup ride. If they changed the ride vehicle to carousel horses and had them slowly bounce through the track layout, then it would certainly have had more of a wow factor for me.

That’s just my armchair imagineering though. This is still a really wonderful addition to add to the park if they want to finally cut the check.

Personally, I would love to see a Mary Poppins ride at EPCOT similar to Peter Pan at MK. That is, a quintessential dark ride where you “fly” along with Mary Poppins in different scenes. Tea cups just don’t do it for me!

Thank god they didn’t go ahead with this pointless attraction. Nice to have one or two of these styles of rides in the parks but can’t we see a little bit more investment in rides rather than slapping the same old ride vehicles in with yet another overlay. Surely Disney can come up with something a little more original……..maybe sort out some of the shockingly bad rides still in existence…..imagination for one. Gut the building, both floors and give us an imagination ride we deserve…..or just rename it more appropriately……lack of imagination.

No thanks, I’d rather they do nothing than put in a stupid indoor spinner ride.

What does this accomplish? There are already better spinner rides at WDW? This ride has very little capacity. And I can’t imagine that any family is planning a vacation around a new teacup spinner?

Any park ride or event that includes Mary Poppins is greatly welcome. Are you listening, Disney World? (Including more fine art.)

Honestly, I would prefer a carousel. It might be a bit more boring, but it seems more “Mary Poppins” to me. Of course, anything is better than nothing. Indoors could have been a fun touch, although, I’d argue it’s not necessary either as long as there’s a cover for rain, especially in EPCOT which has almost no outdoor attractions.

This is not an E-Ticket, so it’s funny to me that they’d cut it. All of the parks, even MK, could use more A-C ticket attractions, I think. I’d love to see each park with attraction counts similar to parks at the Disneyland Resort.

Things like this shouldn’t require a tremendous investment to get rolling again. Hopefully, they will explore the idea again.

So this new ride would be a spin off of a ride that opened at Disneyland almost 68 years ago!?

Oh good, artwork about another attraction we won’t get at WDW.

Don’t need an indoor teacup ride when this concept already exists in the Magic Kingdom with Alice in Wonderland

Wow, talk about an underwhelming ride, and one that has almost nothing significant to do with its source. Imagineering clearly went off the rails if they thought this was the way to use Mary Poppins in the parks.
