Called Tron 2.0 expected release is 1st quater 2003, and Bruce Boxlightier has already confermed at many Bab5 con that he has recorded voices for the game
Well, I am very sad to see Kong leave I was hopin to get to ride it one more time when I visit next summer, being the last time I went was 7 years ago! I just hope they replace it with something worth it unlike Disney did. You know with Mr. Toads wild ride, that was my favorite non coaster attraction at Magic Kingdom and they replaced it with some stupid winnie the pooh ride, which in my opinion wasn't half as good as Toad. That was a real bad move for Disney even such stars as Sarah Michelle Gellar loved Toad. Anyway enough about that, I don't think it will be mummy, or apollo. Why would they move the great scenery already in that building and replace it with more scenery??? That would cost them a lot of money. They could keep the scenery already in the building and theme the coaster to MIB, even though MIB already has ride, but they don't have a coaster. Or Spiderman, even though spiderman has an attraction at IOA again he doesn't have a coaster either.
Ah, the poor thing. I hate to see such an unusual attraction go.
I think thast it may be replaced with a "trip through New York" ride. That would be pretty cool and as far as quantum leaps go I think we have to leave that to IOA. I will miss the old ape thogh.
