Hopefully, Future Guy, we'll get some kind of confirmation before then...

Re: Fire Breaks Out in Enchanted Tiki Room
Hopefully they will revert to the old show so that if I take my friend in, I won't get annoyed by Iago....here's to hoping.
Re: Fire Breaks Out in Enchanted Tiki Room
Stichkingdom.com reports that it will be reverting to the Old Management, and they seem rather unequivocal about it.

That's great news if true, I only hope it's done in time for our trip in August! Our kids (the 2 and 4) were kind of scared by Uh-Oa in the New Management version, so hopefully they'll appreciate the old one more.

Re: Fire Breaks Out in Enchanted Tiki Room
I wonder how reliable their source is? I remember all the spurious postings that Jim Hill Media used to post about "confirmed" news. I'm still waiting for Disney to officially announce it.Brian845 wrote:Stichkingdom.com reports that it will be reverting to the Old Management, and they seem rather unequivocal about it.

Meanwhile, I had wonder this if the old attraction is coming back: will they use the Tiki Goddess AA in the show?
Re: Fire Breaks Out in Enchanted Tiki Room
I can only hope. If not, I'm sure they'll use her elsewhere. They're great at recycling their AA.mindflipper wrote:

Re: Fire Breaks Out in Enchanted Tiki Room
I agree with FG on this one. Much to my dismay, the Offenbach number has been out of the show for years now. But I believe the reasons are a combination of what FG and Mindflipper mentioned. It's so sad that the kids of today have such short attention spans that one of the best parts of the classic show was removed. But I would rather see the shortened version than have them either turn it to UNM or take it out completely.Future Guy wrote: Well, the show in California doesn't have the Offenbach number. If they simply bring back the "original" show, it will actually be the California version, so no Offenbach. I imagine the number was removed to shorten the show, both to cater to modern attention spans and to increase the attraction's daily capacity like Mindflipper said.
At any rate, I'm seriously considering spending some money we don't have and making a detour to WDW after our St. Pete trip in October to see the "new" Tiki Room, whatever form it ends up taking.

Hey Future Guy: if you go to see the revised ETR (if back to the original), swing by the HM and tell us what the new Mirror area is like as well!

Re: Fire Breaks Out in Enchanted Tiki Room
Uhoa the Tiki Goddess of Diaster was carted off yesterday is what I heard from some fellow cast members. She suffered a lot of water damage from the sprinklers.

Re: Fire Breaks Out in Enchanted Tiki Room
I heard the same thing from another source. Supposedly, the Tiki Goddess figure had water raining down on her for over an hour, and is irreparably damaged as a result.packwingfn wrote:Uhoa the Tiki Goddess of Diaster was carted off yesterday is what I heard from some fellow cast members.

Re: Fire Breaks Out in Enchanted Tiki Room
So all Iago had to do was douse the Tiki Goddess with a bucket of water, eh? "I'm melting, I'm melting - aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh...."
